When I got to Ardora Construction, I took a moment to compose myself, neatly arranging

the documents on Grace.

With everything in hand, I stepped out of the car and walked straight in.

This was my second time here.

The first was to request my daughter's school transfer, which caused quite a commotion

throughout the building.

Who knew what awaited me this time? Whenever I showed up, things were bound to get

lively.

Whenever I met Melanie, I was in for another fierce battle.

I couldn't imagine what family situation had pushed Grace to develop liver cancer.It must

have been quite a mess.

Melanie and Abby were not the type to back down easily.I wondered how Matthew could

allow his mother to be mistreated.

If it were my mother, I'd demand justice.It was truly too much.

However, it was also Grace's fault for living her whole life so passively.

Abby had ruined her life.

Would Matthew treat me this way if I were in her shoes? But then again, I couldn't bring

myself to do what she did.As expected,

many people stared at me in astonishment.

The bustling office had fallen eerily silent.

I ignored their looks.

After all, I was there to get things done and leave.

When I got to Matthew’s office, I asked his secretary if he was in.

The secretary, who seemed new, asked, "Do you have an appointment?"

She had no idea who I was.

I knocked on the door several times and said, "No, but it’s urgent!"

I could tell he was in by the secretary's tone. The secretary quickly stood by the door.

"Please wait a moment, miss.May I have your name?" "Chloe Hartz!" Before the young

secretary could check, the door swung open. Melanie stepped out. When she saw me, she

crossed her arms and blocked the doorway.

"Oh! Look who it is! I didn't expect—"

I brushed past her and strode into the office.

That was when I saw there were several other people there.

I paused for a moment and looked around, feeling slightly awkward.

Still, since I was already there, I kept walking in.

Among the crowd, I spotted an astonished Keegan Thompson.

Matthew was slouched behind his desk, quite fitting for a boss.

When he saw me burst in, Matthew immediately sat up straight.

There was a strange, excited glint in his eyes.

"Chloe?"

This was the first time I had seen him since the party.

Shortly after, Melanie followed in, grabbing my arm.

"Hey! Have you no manners? Did I invite you in?"

I still didn't look at her and headed straight for Matthew's desk. "Chlo, have you no

shame? Why are you here?" Melanie couldn't stop me at all and erupted in fury.

The others in the office were also looking at me, wide-eyed and speechless, clearly eager

for some drama.

I said to Matthew, "I need to talk to you."

He quickly waved his hand and said, "You all can leave.We'll continue in the afternoon!"

Then he turned his eager but confused gaze toward me.

The others reluctantly stood up, clearly not wanting to miss the show.

I didn't pay them much mind.

I looked at Matthew and placed the documents on his desk.

"Do you need something?"

Matthew looked at the papers on his desk, then at me, asking, "What's all this?"

"Take a closer look!"

Matthew carefully examined the documents and frowned.

"From the hospital? Why was my mom at the hospital?"
