    Chapter 104


    Unexpectedly, the front desk supervisor called Matthew half an hourter.


    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 rtionship 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. youngdy, carrying a high–end


    handbag in her left hand and holding an umbre in her right hand,pletely blocking the path at


    the entrance.


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


    “Matthew!” Lindsey eximed. Her scheme seeded. She immediately burst intoughter 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 tie out to meet me


    sooner orter. It’s better to have fewer troubles than more. troubles, right?”

    fter all, you have to


    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 alreadye 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 upy 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 paté 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 ce, he would not have been hungry for so long.


    “Matthew, this restaurant was rmended 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 Svnd. I


    asked him to send me a batch of high–quality

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


    After chattering away, Lindsey put on an expectant look and waited for him toment 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 Drasnd 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.


    Lindsey noticed that Matthew was not interested at all. It was only then that she stopped showing


    off and revealed her real purpose foring 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?”
