Chapter 91


    For an entire day after the incident, Matilda didn’t step foot outside her home.


    Gideon, feeling distressed for her, took it upon himself to handle her business affairs. He met with


    Micah to discuss their uing coboration, and in the midst of it, the topic of the drugging came up.


    Micah was utterly shocked, apologizing profusely and promising to make a personal apology with his


    son in tow when he found the time.


    Gideon had been all set to give Micah a piece of his mind, but the old man’s sincere remorse and the


    silver streaking through his hair softened Gideon’s resolve. Troy had really let down a good man, his


    father.


    As Matilda rested at home, Gideon started sketching designs for their new project.


    Micah had approached them to create a spin on the trendy “box bag” style. There were numerous


    distinct kinds of box bags. To stand out, they would need to infuse their bags with a unique ir,


    something to carve out their own niche in the market.


    Gideon saw it as a fresh challenge for the studio, one that could potentially bring them fame and


    fortune once it seed.


    After a few days of recuperation, Matilda ventured back to the studio. As she left work, she decided to


    drop by Logan’s ce, timing it perfectly to miss Yvan’s return from the office.


    Violet was away traveling, a convenient absence that spared Matilda any awkward encounters.


    Meanwhile, as Yvan was wrapping up his day, Carl approached him with deference, “Mr. Boyd, you


    have a visitor.


    “Who is it?” Who woulde looking for him after hours?


    Before he could ponder any further, the clicking of high heels echoed through the hall and a slender


    figure rushed in, throwing herself into his arms as he stood up, “Yvan! It’s me!”


    As Yvan looked down at the familiar face nestled against him, his icy demeanor. melted away. He


    brushed her cheek, “E?”


    It was E Archer, with her cascading waves and the kind of knockout figure that turned heads. Yvan,


    exceptionally, shed her a smile, and then asked, “Why you didn’t give me a heads–up beforeing


    here?”

    E replied coyly. “To give you a surprise, of course! You’re so cold, Yvan. You didn’t evene to pick


    me up from the airport, so I had toe find you!”


    Yvan remembered receiving her call the day Matilda had left, which had driven him to a night of


    drinking instead of weing E back.


    The thought of Matilda darkened Yvan’s eyes momentarily, but E, noticing his silence and distraction,


    pinched his cheek yfully, “Hey, Yvan, where did you drift off to?”


    In all of Sea City, only E dared to be so bold with Yvan. Other women kept their distance, intimidated


    by his steely aura. E, who bore a striking resemnce to her sister Rachel Archer, was vibrant and


    untamed, unlike the more demure Rachel.


    Seeing E’s face, so like Rachel’s, stirred something different in Yvan now. Why did Matilda’s image


    invade his thoughts when he looked at E?


    He closed his eyes for a moment, taking a deep breath. When they opened again, he was the


    impassive heir of the Boyd family, a man who never lingered on any woman.


    With a mischievous smirk, he twirled a lock of E’s hair around his finger, “How about I make it up to


    you by taking you out tonight? There’s this renowned restaurant I know.”


    “Humph!” E looped her arms around his neck, “A wee kiss first. Then we can talk about how


    you’ll make it up.”
