Chapter 2053
The Emperor''s Garden was a private garden club that branched out from the Emperor''s Club. It was
dedicated to banquets, weddings, and otherrge-scale events.
The garden was in bloom all year. They also provided services like catering and props so there was
no need for one to worry when holding events. Hence, it attracted many customers the moment it
was opened.
Keith parked the car at the gates and turned to look at me. "Madam, we are here."
We arrived so soon.
I calmed down and took a deep breath.
"I''ll wait for you in the parking lot. Call me immediately if something happens." After saying this,
Keith got out of the car and opened the door for me.
Theo initially nned to have Keith and I go in together. He then got concerned about tipping off the
other party and decided to scrap that n and have me go in alone. There were so many people
present, so there should not be a problem.
I went up to the door. When I handed the invitation letter to the guards, they looked at each other.
Their expressions toward me seemed more respectfulpared to others. "So you’re President
Zimmer''s VIP guest. President Zimmer informed us to bring you to him first."
President Zimmer...
It seemed that it was Matthew without a doubt.
I followed one of the guards and entered the gate.
They could tell that I was a VIP from just a nce at the invitation letter. It seemed Matthew did
something to it. Just what was his intention behind this…
Suddenly, the guard in front of me stopped. He made a gesture inviting me in and looked at me with
a smile. "Miss Lane, you can head on in."
"Thank you."
I replied softly. There was a cobblestone pathid between where I was to the building. It looked to
have been deliberately constructed like this. It was rather difficult to step on that path with high
heels on and it took me quite a bit to reach the door.
I craned my neck and looked inside. Although it was a ss door, the inside looked to be empty. I
reached out and knocked on the door, waiting for a response.
However, there was no sound inside even after a long time had passed.

I frowned. Did they want me to go in directly?
Thinking of this, I reached my hand out and pushed the door in.
It was arge living room, but there was no one to be seen.
Just as I was about to leave, Matthew''s figure suddenly appeared on the stairs. He looked at me
with a smile. "You look so beautiful today."
His smile only flustered me. I concentrated my mind and looked at him calmly. "I''m here. Why did
you get someone to bring me here?"
"That’s because you’re the first person I wanted to see. I wanted to make an appearance with you."
He came down a few steps with every word he uttered. When he was done speaking, he had
alreadye up to me.
I took a step back and kept a certain distance from him.
Matthew was obviously displeased by my action. His expression sank but within a second, he
regained his smile. "It seems that Theo has really taught you very well."
"I''m married. I should keep my distance from other men, to begin with," I said lightly.
The moment I said that Matthewughed. "You say you should keep your distance yet he let you
come over to attend my private banquet. Is he so generous? Or do you have some ulterior motive?"
He asked this in a low voice. It seemed he had already figured it out.
In that case, I did not have to hide anything anymore. I just said openly and honestly, "Yes, we
suspected that you might have some other intentions. That’s why I came. It stands to reason that
Theo shouldn’t be missing from a banquet like this. Yet, he was not invited while I was. That could
only mean that the CEO of YA is you."
Matthew smiled and nodded. "Go on."
"You want to strike up a cooperation with the others to go up against Theo, don''t you?" This was my
guess and I wanted to confirm it.
