Chapter 836
Matthew beamed with pride.
“I’m a married man now.
I have to learn to take care of my wife.
”
He pulled a chair closer, his curiosity piqued.
“So, what were you pondering just moments ago?”
After a brief pause, Stella replied with seriousness, “I have a favor to ask of you.

“Go ahead,” Matthew urged, raising an eyebrow.
Stella continued, “Tonight, I need you to accompany me to see Mia, posing as my husband.
”
A shadow crossed Matthew’s face as he cautioned in a somber tone, “I am your husband, to begin with.
What exactly do you mean by that?”
Stella chuckled, teasing playfully, “Well, according to our marriage certificate, it says ‘Maverick,’ not ‘Matthew.
'”
Matthew furrowed his brow, his initial anger gradually subsiding, yet his displeasure remained evident.
“I’ll have it changed soon.
”
Unfazed by his irritation, Stella took a bite of the fried egg and remarked casually, “Then I’ll take that as your agreement.
”
“Of course,” Matthew replied.
Stella sipped her milk and elaborated, “I plan to buy a new dress later.
Last time I met Mia, I wasn’t adequately prepared, and a lot happened afterward.
It was all quite chaotic.
This time, I want to leave a lasting impression on her.
”
Determination filled Matthew’s voice as he affirmed, “I’1l accompany you after breakfast.
”
He sounded genuinely delighted.
“You’ve been absent from the company for the past few days.
There must be numerous matters requiring your attention.
I’m just going shopping for a dress; it won’t take long.
I’ll have Miley accompany me.
” Stella refused him.
“I haven’t seen Miley since my hospitalization.
I’d like to catch up with her over afternoon tea.
”
After some contemplation, Matthew agreed.
“I’ll arrange for some bodyguards to accompany you.
”
Stella initially contemplated declining but gave in when she met Matthew’s determined gaze.
It seemed that if she resisted, he might personally follow her.
She sighed in resignation, saying, “Alright.
”
After breakfast, Matthew drove Stella to Miley’s villa before heading to his company.
