Marrying

Chapter 104



Unexpectedly, the front desk supervisor called Matthew half an hour later. 

The supervisor sounded quite troubled. “Mr. Grant… Miss Santos is blocking the entrance of the company. She won’t let anyone in or out. She said if you don’t see her, she won’t leave today…” 

Noria Group had over one thousand employees, and their business partners were also top–notch in the industry. There was no room for Lindsey to cause such a fuss. But the supervisor, having worked here for many years, had more or less heard about the close relationship between his CEO and the Santos family. 

Back then, Matthew had nearly married the eldest daughter of the Santos family. 

It was unclear what happened to prevent the marriage from happening. Katherine went abroad subsequently. 

Nowadays, the second daughter of the Santos family stuck to Matthew like glue every day, even though Matthew avoided her. But someone who observed things sharply could tell that although Matthew was known for his bad temper as well as being iron–willed and not tolerating any nonsense, he was very tolerant of this second daughter of the Santos family. No matter what she did, he had never snapped at her. 

So, no one dared to step forward to drive Lindsey away. They could only muster the courage to call Matthew. 

As Matthew came downstairs, he noticed that Noria Group’s entrance was filled. with people. In the crowd, Lindsey could be seen wearing a dress fit for a wealthy. young lady, carrying a high–end handbag in her left hand and holding an umbrella in her right hand, completely blocking the path at the entrance. 

“What are you doing?” Matthew asked as he pressed his temples with a troubled expression. 

“Matthew!” Lindsey exclaimed. Her scheme succeeded. She immediately burst into laughter happily and gestured to the people inside and outside the door, saying, “Alright. Alright. You people can go in and out now.”

She quickly ran to Matthew and said, “Matthew, I finally get to see you!”

Matthew frowned slightly and said, “Don’t stir up trouble like this again next time.” 

Lindsey was not afraid that he would be angry. She pursed her red lips and said matter–of–factly, “It’s all because you avoid me. If you had agreed to see me voluntarily, I wouldn’t have done this. So, Matthew, lone have plenty of ways. You had better think about it next ti come out to meet me sooner or later. It’s better to have fewer troubles than more. troubles, right?”

After saying that smugly, Lindsey hugged Matthew’s arm and shook it, saying, “Matthew, don’t just stand here. I’m famished. I heard there’s a new restaurant nearby. Wanna check it out?” 

She was five years younger than Matthew and had a lively personality. She had been the apple of everyone’s eye since childhood and had never really suffered setbacks. Even if she was scolded, she did not take it seriously. 

Because of that incident… Matthew would only be more tolerant of her. Now that he saw her smiling and acting endearingly in front of him, his displeasure gradually disappeared. He rubbed her head as if she was his little sister. 

“Let’s go,” he said. 

Since he had already come out to see her, there was no need for him to continue avoiding her. Plus, he understood her temperament. The more he avoided her, the more determined she was to pester him. He might as well let her be. As time. passed and she got bored, she would find other new things to occupy herself. 

Besides, he really did not want to go back and eat that unappetizing meat. 

At a gourmet restaurant, Matthew ate pasta and chicken liver pâté on a baguette. It was only then that he finally felt at ease eating. However, he could not help but recall that if he had not given Charles the food container in the first place, he would not have been hungry for so long. 

“Matthew, this restaurant was recommended by a friend,” Lindsey said. “How do you find it? Do you like the taste? By the way, what kind of wine do you like? My uncle owns a vineyard in Svaland. I asked him to send me a batch of high–quality

wine. Can you help me taste it later? Also, what’s different about me today?” 

After chattering away, Lindsey put on an expectant look and waited for him to comment on her. 

Matthew scrutinized her for a while before saying uncertainly, “Your hair has grown longer?” 

He could not see any changes in her. She was still dressed dazzlingly as usual. 

“Oh please, it’s not!” Lindsey said with annoyance. Then, she raised her hands. excitedly and waved. “Matthew, look at the new nail art I got done in Drassland the day before yesterday. Every pattern on it is made of real diamonds. Does it look gorgeous?” 

“Looks gorgeous,” he replied, his tone brimming with perfunctoriness. NôvelDrama.Org holds this content.

Lindsey noticed that Matthew was not interested at all. It was only then that she stopped showing off and revealed her real purpose for coming today. “Matthew, I heard that you brought a food container to the office yesterday,” she said. “That food container… Who cooked the box lunch for you?”
