Chapter 501 Unforgettable Encounter


    “Does Mr. Nelson know that person on the card or are you interested in her?” The customer rtions


    supervisor leaned forward to pick up the documents and the invitation card. The card was given to her


    by her friend and she unknowingly ced it with the documents that she brought with her to the


    meeting. In her carelessness, she dropped the documents and Matthew happened to see the card and


    asked out of curiosity.


    She held the documents close to her chest and held the invitation card for a couple of seconds before


    giving it to Matthew, “I’m already married and I can’t possibly wear a bridal gown again. What if I see a


    beautiful bridal gown? I might be forced to look for a new husband. Perhaps I should give this invitation


    card to you, Mr. Nelson.”


    As the supervisor of the customer rtions department, she was particrly sensitive to a person’s


    expressions and gestures. Although Matthew did not express that he wanted the invitation card, she


    could sense that he was interested in the person in the picture on the card. Otherwise, he would not


    have hesitated.


    Matthew reached out and epted it graciously, “Thanks.”


    The supervisor was a middle-aged woman in her forties with short-cropped hair and dressed


    professionally. She followed him into his office and curiously asked, “Mr. Nelson, do you know her?”


    Could he have a new squeeze? The previous woman who he spoke about to the office staff did not


    resemble thatdy on the card.


    “Why are you so interested in my private matters?” Matthew said nonchntly as he nced at her.


    The supervisor smiled and said mischievously, “All women are equally curious. However, Mr. Nelson


    had been treating me like one of the chaps.” Thereafter she returned to her seat. Matthew never


    differentiated his staff based on their gender. He based his tasks assignment based on the staff’s


    abilities. Matthew seemed to be lost in his thoughts as he looked at thedy dressed in red cheongsam


    featured in the invitation card.


    The doctor sent him pictures of Theresa after she recovered from the cosmetic surgery. Although she


    no longer looked like her former self, he could still recognize her after close inspection of the


    photograph. He lost track of Theresa after she left the hospital but he guessed that she must have


    been staying with Dolores. Although there was no trace of Dolores in the invitation card, he was certain


    that Dolores must be somehow involved.


    After instructing Abbott to take the invitation card to his office, he took his seat and started the meeting.


    The top executives of the top ten rankedpanies sat uneasily in their ces. Each meeting with


    Matthew felt torturous. They were worried that they would misspeak and upset the boss. The grueling


    meeting could drag on for hours.


    Matthew would maintain a very stern expression throughout the meeting, causing them to second


    guess themselves as if they had done something wrong. Even if they had performed their tasks to


    perfection, it could not even elicit a smile from him.


    However, unlike in the past, he had started to praise them if they had done a good job. In the past, he


    would berate unreservedly if the person had not performed the task to his satisfaction. The top


    executives were also contented and prayed for the meeting to end as soon as possible. They all had


    the feeling that they just wanted to quickly escape from that meeting.


    The current meetingsted a couple of hours. Matthew left the conference room with Abbott following


    closely behind and reminded him, “You have a lunch appointment with Mr. Tyrone at the Moon


    Restaurant. At three this afternoon, you have a meeting with Mr. Webb to discuss the merger. You have


    a charity event at eight this evening. Do you want me to find someone to attend the event with you


    tonight?”


    Events like this were attended by couples. Some would bring their secretaries while others would bring


    their wives. People who attend such charity events were society elites who utilize such asions to


    Matthew was slim and athletic. With one hand in his pocket and the other hand undoing his cor, he


    said, “Attend the charity on my behalf.” No one would say anything so long as the money had been


    donated.


    Abbott nodded and stopped as they reached the entrance of the office. Matthew opened the door to his


    office and saw Boyce and Armand waiting for him in the office. Boyce had always been dependable


    and steady while Armand had an inquisitive character. He leaned over the table, picked up, and looked


    at the invitation card. On the card was Theresa who wore a bright red cheongsam which was


    exquisitely embroidered. Her jet-ck wavy hair was beautifully set. Her sexy figure was entuated


    by the body-hugging cheongsam with a high slit which revealed just enough of her long fair legs to


    tease. She looked coy with a slight smile which was picture perfect.


    On the left side of the card was embossed with gold wordings: An Unforgettable Encounter Begins With


    A Perfect Dress, Who Could Ever Resist?


    The message was simple and yet alluring. The design of the invitation card perfectlyplemented the


    theme of the event.

    Armand red at Matthew and pondered why was this invitation card on Matthew’s table.


    “Who is this? Why is this on your table?” He questioned if Matthew had strayed.


    Matthew ignored and red coldly back at him.


    Armand pursed his lips and then looked back at the invitation card in detail and then remarked, “She is


    truly beautiful and alluring, but…”


    “Oh Armand, have you no shame? Why are you so horny each time you see a woman?” Boyce said.


    He was dragged over by Armand after his meeting. Boyce looked dashing in his well fitting uniform.


    Boyce looked rock steady and authoritative as he sat on the sofa in his impressive uniform. His solemn


    expression made him exude an air of reverence.


    Armand looked up slowly towards Boyce and replied, “Who’s the one without shame? I’m just


    He ced the invitation card back on the table, walked over to the sofa, and then ced his hand


    firmly onto Boyce’s shoulder, “I don’t hide my feelings unlike you. You obviously have a raging heart but


    pretend to be reserved.”


    Buzz…


    Boyce’s cell phone started to vibrate at this moment. He looked up at Armand and wanted to retort but


    took out his phone which had an unknown caller.


    Armand took a peek, sat on the armchair, and said, “Could it be a spam caller?”


    Boyce red at him and said, “Mind your own business.”


    Armand pursed his lips and thought to himself about Boyce snapping him back at him and remarked,


    “Brut.”


    Boyce ignored him and answered the call. The caller was ady and asked with a very tender voice, “Is


    that Inspector Boyce Shawn?”
