True Love Waits

Chapter 1327 A Female Secretary

"I know. You can leave now. I have something else to do, and then I'll go home!" Erica said a bit harshly. She wasn't in a good mood.

Kaitlyn nodded and answered, "Okay, I'll go change my clothes!"

After Kaitlyn left the studio, Erica took out the cellphone from her pocket and scrolled through the messages she had exchanged with Matthew. The last one was from over ten days ago. It was a short text from him-"Hmm."

They hadn't sent any more messages since then.

All of a sudden, a terrible thought popped into her head. Although Debbie had told her that Matthew was on a business trip in M Country, she couldn't help wondering if he had been with Phoebe all these days. However, as soon as the thought came, she shook her head. It was impossible! She must be imagining things.

She didn't know whether Phoebe had given the ten million to Matthew or not, but if she hadn't heard Kaitlyn answering the phone today, she wouldn't have considered asking Matthew about it.

After all, she trusted him and had no reason to doubt that he would accept the money from Phoebe.

Yet now, she wasn't so sure about it anymore.

With so many conflicting thoughts occupying her mind, she pressed the video call button immediately to speak to Matthew.

It took a long time for the video call to connect, but when it did, a woman's face came into the screen. Erica's heart sank as the other woman smiled at her. "Mrs. Huo, Mr. Huo is in a meeting. He didn't take his phone with him. Is there anything I can do for you?"

"Who are you?" Erica asked.

"Mrs. Huo, I'm Mr. Huo's secretary, Ana."

'His secretary? Ana?' Erica stared at the beautiful female secretary on the screen for a while. Neither of them said anything. However, Ana kept smiling as she waited for her orders.

Erica still didn't understand why Matthew would hand over his private phone to his secretary. This wasn't usual of him. "Where is this meeting taking place?"
