The Billionaire's Mistake

MISTAKE 240-

Chapter 240: Maya

Mathew sat in the back of his sleek black sedan his eyes narrowed as he listened intently to his bodyguard Joe. Joe was seated in the front passenger seat, reviewing the information they had gathered on Vivian. "She played the role perfectly, Mr. Shaw," Joe reported. "During the...transaction, she stayed completely in character as your wife. Didn't break once, even when things got a little messy."" "Messy?"

"Madam Hou took off an arm," Joe answered.

Mathew eyes flashed a hint of interest when he heard that there was violence, blood. He wondered how Vivian fared. "And she didn't seem scared? When that guy's arm got chopped off?" Joe shook his head. "If she was scared, she hid it well. She's one heck of an actress."

"Well isn't that a good thing," Mathew chuckled. He raised his brow in question as he asked, What did they find on her?"

"Well, according to the background check, Vivian is in debt," Joe explained, "Her brother passed away and she's been working multiple jobs to pay off his debts and cover her niece's crazy medical bills." "Her niece is sick?"

"The kid needs a kidney transplant, from what I heard. Really expensive stuff."

"Call the hospital her niece is at. It would be good to get kid's surgery scheduled right away. Such a good wife, how can she run away>"

Joe raised an eyebrow but didn't question the order.

"And you say she is in debt? Who is she owing" Mathew asked.

"You sir,"

"Me?" Mathew asked with a sudden light in his eyes.

"Yes, she borrowed money from Silica finance." Joe answered.

"Is that so?"
