Chapter 67 Drifting Away

+15 BONUS

As expected, Matthew didn’t return that night. Meanwhile, I tossed and turned, unable to

sleep.

The following morning, Ivanna called with some news. She told me that Melanie had

caught Matthew and Lauren in the act. I felt conflicted, unable to decide whether to feel

delighted or sad. Despite my plans going smoothly, I couldn’t find joy.

After washing up and getting dressed, I headed to the office. I only returned to my senses

when I realized Matthew was not at the company building. Soon after, I realized a painful

truth. Matthew had already slipped away, even if I hadn’t set him up.

However, I reminded myself not to give up on my revenge. I instructed Johnson to call and

inform Matthew to come to work, saying there was a rumor about ATL Empire only

choosing two companies for the project.

I also wanted Matthew to think Tanum Corporation and another company were out of the

picture. Since I knew Matthew’s ambitions, I was confident he wanted to secure the

collaboration with ATL Empire.

Simultaneously, pictures started circulating on the internet. The headlines read, “CEO and

Brawl.”

Although the pictures were slightly blurry, they showed an intimate scene and the

following fight. From the pictures, I knew Melanie had played her role well and caused

quite a scene.

Meanwhile, reporters had already gathered at the Galar Tower lobby. Matthew appeared at

the office an hour later, trying to slip in unnoticed. Then, I timed it perfectly and stormed

into his office while clutching my phone.

When I entered, I saw Matthew dejectedly sitting on the couch with Johnson beside him. I

guessed Jonson had already played his part in the act.

When Matthew saw me burst into his office, he stood up and stammered, “H–Honey, I…”

I only noticed a few bloody scratches on his face when I looked at him. I had never seen

him so pathetic before

Matthew, do you have something to tell me?” I stared at him. Although I knew I was only

acting. I could finally release my suppressed emotions.

Matthew signaled for Johnson to leave, and the latter wisely stepped out.

“Is this your idea of loyalty?! Who is that woman?!” I screamed.

Matthew hugged me, saying, “Yes, I lied this time. I went out with Lauren last night, but

she got me drunk and insisted on sending me to a hotel to rest. I didn’t think we would…

yeah. She’s been interested in me for quite some time.

declaration from the bank!”

I stared at Matthew, and he continued, “I was determined to secure ATL Empire’s project

for our family. Then, I could fulfill my promise and provide a lavish life for you. Honey, you

have to believe me. I did it all for our future, but I admit I made a mistake!”

I laughed at his words as tears rolled down my face. I wasn’t sure if I was acting anymore

at that point. I laughed because he still thought I was a fool to trust him. I wondered if he

thought I was that naive.

“Honey, I swear I won’t let you down again. If it weren’t for the alcohol last night, I–I

wouldn’t have betrayed you!”

He wove his lies, looking sincere. At that moment, I contemplated whether or not I should

give this man another chance. Perhaps I would’ve believed his bullshit if I didn’t know

about everything he did.

My suppressed anger raged as I approached him, saying, “Matthew, do you think I’m an

idiot? Tell me, who was the one who caught you?”
