Chapter 101 Matthew Isn’t Who He Appears To Be

The atmosphere at the poker table was lively. After checking his cards, Chris laughed and remarked, “Mikael, you’re going to lose big this time!”

Mikael raised his eyebrows and responded, “I don’t think so. In fact, how about we raise the stakes?”

“How much?” Chris narrowed his gaze, wondering whether Mikael might have a good hand tonight.

Amidst the laughter, the door to the private room was pushed open forcefully.

Startled, everyone in the room turned to look.

Matthew stood at the door, staring at them grimly.

Chris recognized Matthew and clicked his tongue before throwing his cards onto the table.

At the same time, Mikael stood up and walked over with a light smile. “What brings you here, Mr. Hood?”

Matthew’s expression remained grim. “I’m looking for Radley.”

As he spoke, he tried to enter the room.

Immediately, Chris stood up and blocked Matthew’s path. “Who let you in?”

Matthew narrowed his eyes and pushed Chris aside.

“Hey!” Caught off guard, Chris took two steps back. He cursed and rolled up his sleeves, ready to fight.

“Chris, don’t!” A deep voice came from a dark corner.

Chris had a fiery temper and wouldn’t listen to anyone when he was mad. He raised his fist and was about to strike.

Seeing that, Mikael grabbed Chris by circling the latter’s neck from behind.

“Mikael!”

On the other hand, Matthew ignored Chris’ murderous glare and walked straight toward Radley, who was sitting on the sofa.

As he approached, he noticed the female escort sitting next to Radley. A hint of disdain flashed across his

eyes.
