Chapter 748
Matthew moved towards the keyboard, making it clear he was about to take action. Hamm, frightened, quickly backed down, worried about the potential consequences of Grant’s actions. “Alright, 1711 think it over. But you can’t leave just yet Davin was right–transportation here is down. I arrange for you to stay somewhere for now. Once we’re ready, we’ll make arrangements for your departure.
Hearing this, Matthew chose not to refuse. After all,pared to Hamm, he was just an ordinary person here. Hamm’s high position and authority meant that if he was angered, even <b>Davin </b>might not be able to protect Matthew. So, Matthew said nothing more <b>and </b>simply stood up and left as instructed.
Hamm <b>had </b>people keep an eye on Matthew, ostensibly for his protection. Matthew understood it was more about monitoring him to prevent escape. He didn’t take it too seriously, considering that with this surveince, he wouldn’t be found by the gangs for now. It was a <b>good </b>opportunity for <b>him </b>to rest and recuperate. However, Matthew knew Valerie might have to wait a bit longer, and he wondered how long Hamm would keep him confined
Matthew <b>was </b>assigned to the third floor of the government military headquarters, right above the office area, with tight security. Although he had no intention of escaping his mind was preupied with Valerie
Just after settling onto the bed, Matthew heard a knock on the door. He frowned <b>and </b>called out, “Who is it?”
“It’s me, bringing you some food, a pleasant female voice responded, making Matthew furrow his brow even more. In <b>this </b>situation, a woman’s presence was unexpected.
Thinking it over, Matthew realized that the logistics team might include women, and he was indeed hungry. He opened the door to find a woman in a trench coat approaching him, carrying a tray. On the tray were a bottle of red wine and a steak.
Matthew nodded and gestured. Just leave it there.
As the woman entered, Manhew finally took a good look at her. She was a striking beauty from Wakanda<b>, </b><b>tall </b>and curvaceous, wearing high heels. His curiosity was piqued and he thought. In such a ce, and during a time of conflict, it’s quite unusual to see a woman dressed like this, was she from the logistic department indeed?
The woman set the tray down but didn’t leave Instead, she turned to Matthew and removed her trench coat, revealing sensual lingerie underneath. Matthew frowned at the unexpected disy, but the woman walked toward him and said, I’ve heard <b>you’re </b>a hero who helped turn the ride for our government forces. I’m quite interested in you”
The woman <b>gave </b>him <b>a </b>seductive smile <b>and </b>moved to drape her arms around his neck. Matthew pushed her away firmly<b>. </b>She stumbled back, shocked and incredulous. “If you’re just here to deliver food, you can leave. If there’s something else, I’m not interested, Matthew said, pushing her out the door.
The woman, frustrated, stomped her foot and thought, I <b>can’t </b>believe it. How could someone not be interested in someone <b>like </b>me? He’s just pretending not to care. Determined, she said, Tll be back tonight” before leaving
Matthew sneered, a trace of irritation and coldness in his eyes. He had dealt with situations like this before with ease, but now, being married, be found such advances repulsive <b>and </b>couldn’t be bothered to entertain them. His thoughts were consumed with longing for Valerie, missing her every <b>expression </b><b>and </b><b>smile</b>. Being <b>cut </b>off frommunicating with her, Matthew feared Valerie would be left in <b>the </b>dark about his fate, which would surely be devastating for her<b>. </b>C0ntent ? 2024 (N/?)velDrama.Org.
After chasing the woman away, Matthew nced at the tray, confirming that the food was fine before he began eating, and realized that the meal was quite good. Once he finished eating quickly, he <by </b>down to rest. If possible, he hoped to return home soon and was <b>counting </b>on Davin to resolve the situation so he could reunite with his loved ones <b>as </b>soon as possible.
Matthew took our his phone, looking at Valerie on the screen with a Gint smile. Gradually, he drifted off to sleep. These days had been exhausting for <b>him</b><b>, </b>with constant bombings and asional chases keeping him on edge. With the chance to finally rest and feel <b>safe</b>, he allowed himself to rx and unwind,
Hamm was visibly frustrated when he learned that the woman had been rejected. “How could you mess up even something like this” he snapped.
The woman, undeterred by her earlier rejection, confidently dered, “Don’t worry. If I’ve set my sights on a man, there’s no way I can’t win him over. Just wait and see—I’ll <b>have </b>him falling at my feer by tonight”
Hamm’s expression hardened as he replied, “Alright, make it quick. If you can make him stay and work for us, I’ll make sure you get amendation.” Hamm could not afford to let Matthew go, he had to ensure Matthew served their cause. Otherwise, he would not be at ease.
Hearing this, the woman nodded repeatedly. As night fell and silence enveloped the buikling, she approached the door and found it unmoved. She thought, ‘Seriously<b>? </b>Is he even a man! He locked the door!‘
