Chapter 8

As soon as she hung up the phone, Tessa turned her gaze toward Randall.

After Tessa's call, Randall figured out what was going on and said, "You want me to take care of Matthew, right? No problem. I'll find an opportunity to rough him up on Xavier's behalf. "What's more important right now is our partnership with the Carters. I have a contact at Wealthwave Group. We can go meet him tomorrow."

As Tessa nodded in agreement, she found Randall more likable the more she looked at him.

He understood her needs and proactively took action to address them. Moreover, Randall's connections were far-reaching, even extending to someone at Wealthwave Group. Matthew really paled compared to Randall.

She subsequently felt like leaving Matthew for Randall was the best decision she had ever made. As she thought of that, her mood suddenly brightened.

...

On the following day, after Matthew dropped Lorraine off at kindergarten, he made his way to Wealthwave Group.

Before leaving, Lillian had repeatedly reminded him to be more proactive and to sweet talk a little, saying that Rachel was a lovely young woman.

In order to appease Lillian, he had readily agreed to it.

Yet, deep down, he knew that it was impossible for him to do so. After all, Tessa had left him heartbroken, and he was hesitant to fully commit to another woman again.

He had no intention of going out of his way for Rachel.

As for marriage, he would leave it to fate.

...

Meanwhile, in the president's office of Wealthwave Group, a trace of unease momentarily marred Rachel's typically impassive demeanor.

It was as if a faint crack had appeared on the surface of a frozen pond.

"What should I do, Tracy? Matthew is such a lecherous man. When I first met him, he tried to undress me. And now, we're meeting up again. Although I'd rather not deal with this kind of person, I need something from him, so I can't just kick him out." Tracy was not only Rachel's secretary but also her best friend. She comforted Rachel, saying, "You should bear with it for now. If he tries anything funny, I'll give him the boot before you can blink!"

As she spoke, she waved her fist in a warning gesture, appearing quite ferocious.
