Matthew was taken aback when he heard that. Did Lucy know the kind of favor she was turning down? A promise from Leon.
Corporation’s CEO was something that people would go to great lengths for and still not be able to obtain.
Yet, the woman in front of him was going to reject just that.
However, she was not just anyone; she was his wife.
Matthew raised his eyebrows, and an evil smile appeared on his face. “Others may be able to turn me down, but you can’t. You’re my wife, so it’s only right that I take care of you.”
Chelsea slowly covered her eyes and said, “Alright, alright! You’re doing it again! Stop making me feel like the third wheel.
“Whatever. I don’t expect you to be considerate of the feelings of us single folks anyway.” She removed her hand from her eyes, revealing a blank expression.
She had accepted the reality of things. It was just that Chelsea could not stand seeing her Lulu being all mushy to this bastard.
She shouted, “If you two want to be all lovey–dovey, you can do it at home. But can you please send me home first?”

After seeing Chelsea off, Lucy returned to the car and said, “I’m back.”
“Hi.”
Lucy felt all warm inside. Although it was just a simple greeting, it gave her a homey feeling. That was something she never felt in the Lucas family or the Quinn family.
“What are you thinking about?”
Matthew looked at Lucy, who was smiling to herself, in confusion. He took off his seat belt and leaned into the passenger seat. He got closer and closer to Lucy’s face.
Lucy could practically see the pores on Matthew’s face. Her heart was beating so fast it seemed like it was going to beat out of her chest. Her face was flushed. What was he going to do? Matthew’s hand got closer and closer to her. He then reached over her head.
Huh?
What was Matthew doing? She saw him pulling the seat belt over her head and buckling it for her. He also helped Lucy tidy up her collar, which had gotten messy after going out. He sat back down and

started the engine with a serious look on his face.
Lucy froze on the spot. “You’re playing with my feelings.”
Matthew raised his eyebrows. “How am I playing with your feelings?”
“Y–You did that to me.”
“I did what to you?”
Matthew looked at her teasingly. “What’s wrong with helping my wife fasten her seat belt?
