Even I was surprised by what I said. I must admit, I can be surprisingly kind. I couldn't help but think that Ivanna would probably be disappointed inif she were by my side right now.
When Matthew heard me, a glimmer of hope seemed to gleam in his eyes. He got up and sat at my desk.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtWith his eyes fixed on me, he urgently said, "Only you can help me, Chloe. Pull sstrings, resolve the issues in Muborough, and everything will fall into place." He fervently suggested sideas to me; his plan was clearly well thought out.
"Can't you provide the evidence? Last time, you got someone from Solaris to produce proof, right? As long as you can verify that Muborough's documents are in order, Ardora will be fine." I suddenly felt a sense of irony. The proof I obtained in Solaris? If Melanie hadn't teamed up with Liora to tripup last time, I wouldn't have been involved in a lawsuit.
Now, Matthew continued animatedly, "Mel is still young, and she made a mistake. It couldn't have been her. This is all Liora. She wants to take over my company, so she's using the Muborough project as an excuse. Even if there was sissue with the materials, this was definitely not Mel's idea. She doesn't have the guts to do that. You just need to..." "Are you askingto clear Melanie's name?" I looked at Matthew nonchalantly.
He paused, seeming to realize he had made a mistake. Mentioning Melanie in front ofwas a big no-no! "As long as Ardora is still around, we can cback. Just helpconvince Lauren and ask Oliver to cutsslack on the loan. I can persuade the investors if we can delay it. You have to help me, Chloe." "You say the issue lies with the Thompson family. Just provide the evidence, and you can overturn the case. Besides, don't you remember complaining about my project being subpar last time, Matthew? Wasn't that similar to what's happening now?" I stared directly at him, my sympathy slowly fading away. This guy was truly beyond redemption.
No, he was not unfortunate. He had brought this upon himself. These were the consequences of his actions, and here he was, still defending Melanie. It seemed that he was about to pay the price for defending her.
"You can't say that, Chloe. This is all because of you, isn't it? Are you going to just sit back and watch?" As my attitude toward him cooled, he becdesperate.

"Don't you feel responsible for how she got locked up?" He glared at me.
"How did your mom die? Don't you remember that?" I spoke with a chilling tone. "Were you blind?" "Stop bringing her up. She's dead! I'm her biological son, and I've managed to move on. Why are you holding on to that? We have to live, don't we?" He was somewhat repulsed by my words, and he seemed displeased. I felt powerless. In his eyes, his mother was dead, and everything could be left in the past.
"My son is still very young. Many people dote on Ava, but my son cries every day. You know what kind of person his grandma is! Don't go too far, Chloe. I thought you were kind. Why have you becso malicious?" My heart tightened suddenly. So, in Matthew's eyes, I was on the verge of becoming irredeemable.
"Besides, aren't you already with Atlas? Why don't you just leavealone? If you take a step back, cut ties with Atlas completely, and helpget Mel out, I'll promise... tabe with you. Wouldn't that be great for all of us?" I almost choked. He wantedto be with him? What a colossal joke! Was he insane? "Let's start over with the merger of Tanum and Ardora. I'll handle the engineering, and since you have connections, you handle the projects Let's work together as a et married couple and build the business back up. Why let Liora get her way? This way, even happy. Or... you can use your funds to get rid of those investors for me, and kick them out of Ardora. I can transfer the company under your name..." "Wake up, Matthew! I can't help you with this mess!" I couldn't take it anymore and interrupted him.
