Chapter 2105

"What's wrong, Matt?" Amber was confused. She looked at the room where Renee was. "I want to see Ms. Everheart. She's a guest. Plus, she got hurt because she wanted to attend my wedding with Liam. I have to take care of her."

"Oh, please!" Mateo felt sorry for Amber. At the same time, he was angry because of how uncompetitive she was. "Do you know how much Liam cares about her? How could you agree to let her come to your house? You're inviting your enemy. Don't you know that?"

"No, you're wrong." Amber shook her head. 'Ms. Everheart and Liam know each other. Plus, he liked her long ago. My dad just forced him to marry me. It's normal if he doesn't like me and is still in love with Ms. Everheart. I'm the one to be blamed because I'm selfish. I know that he doesn't like me, but I manipulated my father to get together with Liam."

"What are you talking about, silly girl?" Mateo clutched his chest, furious. "He was the one who suggested the marriage to Master! It proves that he wants to marry you. It probably doesn't mean he likes you, but it's undeniable that he started it. He was willing to marry you. No one forced him. Don't make it sound like he's innocent and sympathetic. He just pretended to be treated unfairly."

"I know why he suggested to Dad to marry me." Amber flexed her fingers, her eyes red. "He knew it was the only way he'd be free. Dad had long regarded him as his son-in-law. The fact that he's going to marry me is already set in stone, but Dad just waited for him to suggest it. Dad wouldn't let him go if he didn't suggest it. Dad would even hurt the people he cared about. While it seemed like he had suggested it, he was actually threatened to do so. Of course he's innocent and sympathetic."

"It's because...he's very weak!" Mateo snarled.

He had heard about Benjamin's pathological threat and control toward Liam. That marriage seemed voluntary, but Benjamin had gradually forced Liam into that desperate choice.

However, Mateo didn't feel sorry for Liam. Instead, he sympathized with Amber, who had no right to voice out her opinions.

'But you're the most innocent one. You know your fiance loves someone else deeply, but you can't say anything about it. You're the only young lady of the Jenkins family, but you're bullied by a live-in husband... Didn't you see the way he looked at you just now? He was so arrogant! I felt like beating him up!" Mateo argued.

"Matt, you don't have to get justice for me. I'm happy. Plus, I'm not greedy. Marrying him is a great honor and blessing for me. I've never dreamed of winning him over or getting his love," Amber said.

She laughed at herself. She was simple and naive, but she didn't care for wishful thoughts. Her future husband would never love her. She knew that right from the start.

"You..! You make me so mad!" Mateo growled.

He still found it unacceptable, and gripped Amber.

"Come with me. Let's go to Master. Make him put Liam down. You guys are going to marry in a few days, but that woman is going to stay here. I'm afraid trouble might pop up. We need to get his reassurance in front of Master."

"What do you mean? I don't need that. I- Amber argued.

"Stop it and just come with me!"

Without hesitation, Mateo dragged her toward the lounge where Benjamin was.

Benjamin was discussing an international business deal with some officials. He called Liam over because he wanted the latter to provide some objective opinions as his future-son-law and heir.

However, Liam refused to offer any comment during the discussion, regardless of how many meaningful looks Benjamin threw at him. He was absent-minded all the way.

Benjamin's face was icy. He raised his teacup, intending to smash it on Liam's head.

"Say something!"
