    Elizabeth was hearing about the contract for the first time. Surprise then shed in her eyes as


    realization finally dawned on her

    Tians couldn’t stop shaking her head when she heard his deration. Tears kept flowing down her


    cheeks too.


    “But I have fallen for you, Matthew. I love you. I really do.”


    Tuna sobbed miserably as pain and misery took over her heart.


    Seeing her daughter’s condition, Celine rushed to embrace her.


    “Tia, how could you be so stupid? He has never taken you seriously. You must forget about him.”


    However, after hearing the advice. Tiana looked at Matthew greedily and screamed, “No, Mom. I will


    not forget about him. I love him very


    much!”


    Elizabeth was deeply irritated by her stepsister. She couldn’t help glowering at thetter while being


    impressed with her shamelessness.


    Didn’t Matthew say they merely have a contract between them? Honestly, she can’t even be


    considered his ex–girlfriend. How could she be so


    shameless and pronounce her love for him?


    At that moment, Elizabeth could feel jealousy inside her. Though she knew many women would be


    attracted to Matthew, it didn’t mean she


    would be fine with seeing one pronouncing her love for him so loudly.


    Upon hearing her deration, Richard lifted his voice a pitch higher. That’s enough! Do you think you


    haven’t disgraced yourself enough?


    We’re going home now.”


    Just then, Celine’s phone rang. Blood immediately drained from her face after she answered it.


    “Darling, Greg… Greg’s dead…” she wailed.


    Richard hurriedly held his wife to support her. “Let’s go check on him first.”


    Tiana regained her senses when her parents were already heading toward the door. Uncle Gregory’s


    dead? How is that possible?


    She could feel her knees go weak.


    When she was about to leave, Matthew suddenly got to her side. He was smirking, and the coldness in


    his gaze was rather scary then.


    “This is his fate for hurting Elizabeth, Tiana. I assure you your ending will be worse than this.”


    Tiana looked at him with surprise as she didn’t expect him to know the secret. Didn’t Uncle Gregory


    promise me to keep this a secret? Didn’t he


    swear not to tell a soul about it? No, I’m just scaring myself. He’s dead. He’s not going to say anything


    anymore.


    However, she could not stop thinking, But what if Matthew has investigated the truth? Tiana started to


    panic when she thought of this. She


    shook her head and said, “I didn’t do anything.”


    She then quickly darted out of the boutique. After seeing such, Elizabeth stood up, strolled to his side,


    and asked, “What did you say to her?


    Why is she so scared?”


    Matthew circled his arms around her shoulder and slightly raised the corners of his lips.


    “A warning.”


    With his arms still on her shoulder, he led her out of Denzy Kenington boutique.


    The executives and shop assistants, who were standing by the entrance, bowed and greeted them,


    “Mr. Hilton, Ms. Wade.”


    In a t voice, Matthew instructed, “Please return to your work! But make sure to keep your eyes wide


    open


    next time.”


    Matthew’s warning almost caused the boutique sales manager to drop to her knees. What have we


    done just now? How could we mess with Mr. Hilton’s woman then? Perhaps we all have a wish to be


    kicked out of Mistwood. I sincerely hope that he can forgive us. We must memorize


    thatdy’s face and remind ourselves never to offend her forever.


    After all, it wasn’t an exaggeration to say that Matthew spoiled her to the core. He treated her like a


    princess.


    When the two got to the dessert shop entrance, Elizabeth tugged his shirt.


    “Matthew, can you let go of me for now?”


    She wanted to keep a distance from him because she didn’t want to upset her sons, considering they


    hadn’t entirely epted him yet.


    Matthew slightly creased his brows when he heard her request. “I know you’re worried about saddening


    your sons, but has it ever crossed d your


    mind that they know everything.”


    Matthew knew that the two boys were trying to test him and helped Elizabeth regain her pride.


    It was essential to them that Matthew knew their mother was not easy to pursue. With them around to


    monitor him, the process to gain the


    heart of his love became extremely hard. Additionally, the boys attempted to use this opportunity to


    make him cherish her more.


    Still, Elizabeth stepped away from his embrace. “But I’m scared of them.”


    She even smiled happily at the end of her sentence. Matthew was slightly displeased when she moved


    away, but he raised his brows


    meaningfully when observing the happiness on her face..


    I guess that’s a blessing for bing a mother. I don’t know what it feels like since I’m not a father.


    Elizabeth then walked into the dessert shop. Abby quickly waved her hand at her mother after noticing


    thetter.


    “Mommy, I leave some of your favorite strawberry cake for you.”


    Arthur pushed the cake to his mother’s seat and ced a fork on the te while Antony stood up to


    allow her to get to her seat.


    “Mommy, don’t take the aisle seat.”


    Her two sons were gentlemen who knew how to take good care ofdies.


    Matthew glimpsed at the four of them and noticed no additional seat for him since the table was for


    four. Seeing such, he had to sit across from


    Esme.


    Esme smiled awkwardly upon realizing his boss‘ situation. “Mr. Hilton, do you want to have a taste of


    the desserts I ordered?”


    Meanwhile, he eximed inwardly, I feel bad for Mr. Hilton.
