Chapter 388
Samantha and Gabriella left in great embarrassment. Lucy could not help feeling a little remorse. It was not because of what she said to Gabriella and Samantha but because of Matthew.
Lucy wanted to grow old with Matthew, but at the same time, she did not want Matthew to destroy his relationship with his family and constantly argue with them over her.
If there were any problems between them, it was best to resolve them immediately. Otherwise, the problem would only grow bigger and bigger. In the end, nothing they did could salvage it because it would be too much to deal with by then.
Matthew had no idea what Lucy was thinking about. All he knew was that he was feeling very happy over what Lucy said. It was no wonder that he fell in love with her at first sight.
"What are you smiling about?"
Matthew smiled and said nothing.
Lucy had already eaten before she came over. She rejected Matthew's invitation to have lunch together.
Matthew did not feel upset about it. He grabbed the cutlery and gobbled down the food she brought.
His mouth was stuffed full of her cooking, but he still proceeded to praise her cooking with a full mouth.From NôvelDrama.Org.
"You're such a sweet-talker!"
The tense atmosphere when Samantha and Gabriella were around had disappeared. It felt warm and loving in the office now.
“Of course, I am. I only sweet-talk to my wife. Other women don't deserve a glance from me."
At this point, Matthew shoved another mouthful of food into his mouth.
He was famished especially after dealing with so much work the entire morning.
Using his brain hard was much more exhausting than physical labor. However, Matthew would be filled with energy the moment he saw Lucy. "Stop talking and finish your food, alright?"
Lucy had never seen Matthew gobble food down like that before.
After Matthew was done with lunch, he wiped his mouth elegantly and stared at Lucy.
"I'm so sorry about what happened just now, wifey. I have no idea what's wrong with my mother. She's being led by the nose by that woman." Lucy smiled. She was not angry about it at all.
"Don't worry, Matthew! Their words have never bothered me at all. She's your mother, after all. I feel that I might have been too harsh just now.” If she had been a little more indirect with her words, Gabriella and Samantha would not have left the office so angrily.
However, Matthew felt that Lucy had not been harsh enough.

"You've already given in to them enough," Matthew said. "There is a limit to things. Samantha is supposed to be a proper heiress from an influential family. I have no idea what she's doing coming to my office all the time."
Samantha's intentions were clear to everyone. If this continued, the entire Leon Corporation would soon know that Samantha was harassing him.
Lucy shook her head. She felt bitterness in her heart.
She wanted very much to have the blessing of friends and family for her marriage, but it looked like the marriage she wanted would not happen. She had to put in a lot of effort to achieve what she wanted.
Matthew seemed to guess her thoughts. He held her hand and promised solemnly, "Now that I've
married you, I'll never let you go. Don't even think about leaving me!"
Lucy felt a warmth in her heart.
It was enough for her to have Matthew in her life. She did not need anything more than that.
