Marrying

Chapter 396

Despite putting on quite a show earlier, Angel couldn’t refuse Matthew’s suggestion in front of Olivia. Otherwise, it would be like shooting herself in the foot. Reluctantly, she watched Matthew turn and leave.

Fortunately, Olivia didn’t seem suspicious. Noticing the servant was slow to bring the gauze, she grew concerned about Angel’s hand. She went to the hall to fetch the first aid kit

Louis

was observing Angel’s fuming face. He shook his head and said, “I’ve told you before, Matthew isn’t for you. I told you to stop fantasizing, but you never listen!”

Angel rolled her eyes at him. She was annoyed by his words. “Who said Matthew and I don’t have a chance? That night I got drunk at the bar, he specifically came to pick me up! He’s just with Valerie to appease Sophia, If it weren’t for her, he’d have divorced Valerie long ago!”

As she spoke, she took out her phone and showed it to Louis, displaying photos taken by paparazzi that night at the bar. She hadn’t released them Katherine’s threat

Seeing her confidence, Louis was speechless, If Angel were deceiving others, it would be fine. But he feared she might be even deceiving herself. It was not that he looked down on Angel After all, she had known Matthew for almost twenty years. Despite all those years, she hadn’t been able to win over him. Now, it seemed even more unlikely.

Louis shook his head and left.

Angel ignored him and continued to admire the photos on her phone. Though only Matthew’s silhouette was in the photo, the atmosphere captured in the picture was captivating. Even with just a silhouette, Matthew had her mesmerized.

Angel set the

photo as her screensaver and leisurely walked into the hall to replace Olivia.

Matthew had a deep respect for Olivia. Given her fallout with Matthew, Angel found it inappropriate to continue pestering him. However, if she used Olivia as an excuse, Matthew would undoubtedly come. Angel’s mind was already calculating this plan.

Little did she know that her conversation with Louis had been overheard by someone leaning against the corner wall.

Being a member of the Grant family. Fred also attended today’s memorial service, even though he arrived late. When he came, everyone’s attention was focused on Max.

Fred wondered why everyone was so interested in an old man. He thought that even if Max were saved, he wouldn’t live much longer either.

However, Fred noticed something else. The way Matthew looked at Valerie seemed different. Fred had been searching for the woman Sophia wanted to arrange a marriage for with Matthew. However, all of Matthew’s affairs were tightly sealed, known only to his assistant, Charles. Charles had a mouth as tight as a welded iron gate. It was impossible to get any information from him.

But now, this memorial service seemed to be revealing more than Fred had expected

Fred had glanced at the photos Angel displayed. There was no doubt the man in the photos was Matthew.

Knowing Matthew’s obsession with cleanliness, if he disliked someone, he wouldn’t even let them get close, let alone hug them. Fred originally thought that after the events years ago, Matthew’s dislike for Angel must have been extreme. It was enough to prove that he had no feelings for her. But, unexpectedly….

Angel’s r

return brought surprises. Matthew had not only gone on a bar date with her but also invested in her film. Fred couldn’t believe that the woman Matthew was interested in wasn’t Angel.
