Chapter 86

With a cold expression, Matthew remarked, "What does it matter if I can make it to the ninth floor? You're here to discuss a collaboration, yet you're talking about me. That's just hilarious!" Jeffrey sported a smile. "Of course, the business is important, but you snuck in here. If the club finds out, we're all gonna get dragged into your mess. You should just go and come clean to them." In Jeffrey's mind, Matthew making it to the second floor wouldn't change anything. Matthew was only setting himself up to be humiliated again.

Matthew was amused. "Why do I need to do that? I didn't do anything wrong."

Jeffrey shook his head as if Matthew was beyond saving. "You're still not owning up to it? Fine, let's call the staff here and see how you explain yourself."

Rachel quickly stopped Jeffrey. "Hold on, Jeffrey. Don't call the staff yet. I'll talk to Matthew and make sure he leaves."

All Rachel wanted was to smooth things over and keep Matthew out of trouble with the club. She also didn't want to disrupt the business meeting.

Jeffrey noticed Rachel's troubled look and realized he had gone too far. He explained, "Don't worry, Rachel. Alex's uncle is the manager here.

"As long as Matthew owns up to it, Alex's uncle will step in, and it won't be a big deal. But if the staff find out, things will get serious."

As Jeffrey spoke, he looked at Alex Miller meaningfully.

Before Matthew arrived, there were four people in the private room-two men and two women. One of them was Alex.
