New beginning: Billionaire love story

Chapter 185 Tomorrow is the day

After Alex left Claire's office, not long after that, Matthew saw Alex in the lobby. He couldn't help but wonder what Alex was doing in Metacortex. Matthew headed over to Claire's office. "Hey, boss."

Claire looked up from her desk and shoot him a small smile. "Matthew, what's up?"

A curious look plastered on his face. "I saw Alex earlier in the lobby."

Claire nodded, not surprised. "Alex was here to talk about the press conference."

Matthew raised an eyebrow, curious. "How's that going?"

Claire shrugged. "It's under control. Alex is doing his part."

She then raised her own eyebrows, changing the subject. "What about Max? Where is he?"

Matthew walked over and took a seat in the chair in front of Claire's desk. "I dropped Max at his house."

Claire frowned. "Why?"

Matthew leaned back, looking serious. "Max couldn't risk being seen by the media if we want our plan to work."

Claire nodded slowly, understanding the gravity of the situation. "Right."

Silence loomed over them, the tension in the room palpable. Matthew finally broke the quiet. "Claire, why didn't we think of Lisa as the culprit?"

Claire sighed deeply, rubbing her temples. "It didn't cross my mind that Lisa would do something like this. I know she's mean and wicked, but I never thought she'd go this far."

Matthew leaned forward, his expression intense. "Claire, the reason Lisa did all this is because you ruined her wedding."

Claire let out a sarcastic laugh, shaking her head. "I didn't care about her wedding. I felt bad for Alex's dad if he saw his son being fooled by a woman like Lisa."
