True Love Waits

Chapter 1163 The Favor

Matthew didn't need to finish his sentence because Paige already knew what he was going to say.

She couldn't control the urge to laugh but Matthew's eyes stopped her, as she cleared her throat and said, "Mr. Huo, I think... you should let the person who said those words explain it to you." Paige didn't want to be the one to do the explaining because she knew that Matthew would only respond with anger. Needless to say, she didn't want to deal with her boss's anger.

'Let Erica explain it to me?' Matthew felt a dull pain in his head just at the thought of it. He shook his head, knowing full well that he would never be able to get Erica to explain it to him properly. Having realized that it would be more fruitful to just ask Paige, he insisted, "Just tell me!"

"Um..." Paige hesitated. She struggled to find the words to give him a response.

Matthew, however, had run out of patience and demanded, "Just spit it out!"

'Fine!' Paige had no choice but to start explaining. "Xitala is a surname. Recently, someone made a historical drama series which became a big hit. A female role's name there is Erqing Xitala. Although her face conveys innocence and harmlessness, she is concisely manipulative and vicious. When the drama series ran on TV for some time, this surname became a household name to every person in the country. The name is infamously popularized by the people who use it to describe those who are vile and detestable. So, 'Xitala, you'd better be kind' is an expression usually said to someone a person despises, telling them not to be so repulsive."

Paige figured "Matthew Xitala" must be the way Erica had addressed Matthew. 'Good luck, Mrs. Huo,' she thought.

Each word she spoke caused Matthew's face to darken in anger.

Paige added, "To be honest, sir, it's also just a joke. You shouldn't take it too seriously."

"I see. Thank you. You can go now."

Leaning against the back of the chair, Matthew thought about how to punish his bold and troublesome wife.

Meanwhile, completely oblivious to the fact that Matthew had found out the meaning of what she said, Erica gleefully kept herself entertained on Weibo after Ethan fell asleep.

She posted a photo of her and Aaron with the caption "Finally, I've met my idol! I'm so happy!"

However, her face was pixelated and the netizens were mainly focused on Aaron's handsome face.

Most of Aaron's female fans were unapologetically envious of her and one of them commented, "It must be nice to have all the connections. Mrs. Huo even has a close-up picture. I wish I were as lucky too!" The comment section was filled with envious comments. Almost everyone apart from one person, whose user name was "Can't Do Anything," seemed to have a similar opinion. "Don't you know that Aaron was in a relationship with three different people at one time? Besides, he even got a room in a hotel with the boss of a company just to win a bid."
