Chapter 169
Wayne was shocked to hear that Lucy was married, but nothing could prepare him for the shock of seeing Matthew get out of the car.
He gaped at the imposing young man before him.
He had once worked with Leon Corporation before, so there was no way he could be mistaken. Although Leon Corporation saw it as a small collaboration, it was a huge deal to Wayne at that time. He had been lucky enough to meet the CEO too.
He was certain that this man was Matthew.
Matthew did not care about him at all. Wayne's existence was like air to him.
What did it matter that Wayne had worked with him before? Countless companies had worked with Leon Corporation, so why would Matthew bother to acquaint himself with people who were ranked lower than him in this world?
He only had eyes for his wife!
Matthew walked up to Lucy and took her hand lovingly. "Wifey, are you done? We can go get our clothes done now."
Sighing, Lucy rolled her eyes at him. "Can't you see that I have a client with me? Why did you come so early when we're supposed to see each other in the afternoon?"
As always, she complained to Matthew, but he did not mind it at all. He simply smiled and listened to his wife.
"I missed my wife." Matthew grinned.
"Every moment without you feels like an eternity. I haven't seen you all morning, and it already feels like ten eternities."
The two of them flirted as if they were the only ones there.
Wayne was shocked to see the intimacy between those two.
He could not help but doubt himself. Was this man really the CEO of Leon Corporation?
Why did he seem so different? Who was this immature, ass-kissing, simp? Although Wayne was starting to question himself, he did not underestimate Matthew. Instead, he regarded Lucy even more highly.Upstodatee from Novel(D)ra/m/a.O(r)g
He never imagined Lucy's husband to be Matthew. If that was the case, Lucy would surpass him in no time.
Lucy was already a very capable

person. She just lacked resources and connections, but not anymore now that she had Matthew's investment.

Seeing Matthew being all lovey-dovey with his wife, Wayne wisely decided to stay put. Matthew seemed to be in a good mood, and if he were to interrupt him...
Wayne could not afford to get into trouble with Matthew.
After they were done talking, Matthew glanced at Wayne and asked Lucy, "Lulu, who's this?"
Lucy's face turned red. Uh-oh, she had just shamelessly flirted with Matthew in front of Wayne as if he were not there. Gosh, how embarrassing.
"This is Mr. Erlington, our collaborator in this project. We were just discussing the contract earlier," Lucy explained to Matthew.
He nodded and smiled at Wayne. "Well, do you need anything else, sir? If not, I'll take my wife with me."
Wayne shook his head vigorously, not daring to stop Matthew.
