Three days passed quickly, and these three days were the happiest time for Lauren.
Ignoring Anne's anger-filled face, Lauren followed Matthew's side directly. She went to the office with him during the day and snuggled up in his arms at night, watching the stars outside.
"Emily Shangkuan? Secretary Zhou, are you sure this Emily Shangkuan is the only daughter of the CEO of Shangkuan's Group? It's Adam's fiancee?"
Receiving this news, Matthew's heart was shocked. He didn't notice that Lauren, who was sitting beside him, reading a comic, also had a shock on her face when she heard the name Emily Shangkuan.
"Boss, this is the news I just got, and this Emily Shangkuan is not only Adam Ouyang's fiancee, but also the baby of Shangkuan's group. As long as she makes a request, the CEO of Shangkuan's Group, there will be absolutely no hesitation to do what she asks."
Secretary Zhou told Matthew about the information he had just investigated about Emily Shangkuan.
Matthew nodded, and it was only at this point that he noticed the dull expression on Lauren's face, which made him suspicious.
"Lauren, Lauren."
Matthew called out twice, but neither got any reaction from Lauren, who was still lost in her own thoughts.
It wasn't until Matthew walked up to her and gave her a gentle tap on the back that Lauren jumped up, which made Matthew even more suspicious.
"Lauren, what's wrong with you? Did I scare you?"
Lauren shook her head.
"No, I was just thinking that your wedding is the day after tomorrow. My heart hurts so much when I think that after the wedding, we won't be able to be happy together like this anymore."
Lauren nestled in Matthew's arms with a painful look on her face. She took his hand and placed it on her chest.
"Don't worry, even if we can't be together in the future. I will still take care of you until you find a man who loves you."
Matthew's words made Lauren's heart hurt even more.
Matthew. In this life, I will not fall in love with any man other than you, only you, Matthew, are the man who will bring me happiness.
Lauren, who thought of this, hugged Matthew tightly and really had a feeling of wanting to stay in his arms forever.
I don't know why? Lauren now has a bad feeling. She has a feeling that the arrival of Emily Shangkuan, her former best friend, will definitely make her life a bigger wave. Her peaceful and happy life would soon come to an end.
"Lauren, why don't you accompany me to the banquet tonight?"
"Banquet? Can I not go?"
Lauren lifted her eyes from Matthew's arms. She really didn't have any interest in attending something like a banquet.
"It's Wong's group CEO's birthday, he was the only one who gave me help when I first took over Yin's business, so for him, I've always had respect."
Lauren nodded.
"Okay, I'll attend with you, but are you sure, he'll like me? After all, the rumors about me in the media outside are not very good, will my presence make you be blamed by others?"
Lauren was a little worried, she was afraid that because of her, the man she loved would be looked down upon.
Matthew doted on Lauren's cheek and gave her a kiss.
"Honey, no matter what the outside world says, it won't affect my feelings for you. Although we are not destined to be together in this life, this relationship is the most important memory for the rest of my life."
Hearing Matthew say this, Lauren's face was filled with a happy smile.
At 7:00 p.m., the two of them appeared at the entrance of the party on time. Looking at Lauren, who had a happy smile on her face and was well-dressed, Matthew really regretted that he brought her to the party.
"Matthew, are you regretting bringing me to the party?"
Matthew's expression made Lauren a little hurt. She tugged her hands nervously on her little dress.
"I am regretting, regretting bringing you here." Matthew's unconcealed regret made the expression on Lauren's face hurt even more.
"I am regretting bringing you here, letting those men focus their eyes on you, I regret choosing this little dress, letting your smooth skin, fully exposed to the men's eyes."
Matthew took off the suit jacket he was wearing directly and draped it over Lauren's body.
"Is that really why you're doing this?"
Lauren's face lifted up into a smile, her soft little hands were wrapped in Matthew's big hands, tightly. She could clearly feel the warmth coming from his large hand.
"You are destined to be the center of attention at the party today, and I really want to gouge out the eyes of all those men who are looking at you."
Lauren was dressed in a snow-white strapless gown that made her look like an angel, and the diamond necklace around her neck shone dazzlingly under the light.
The diamond encrusted handbag in the same color makes Lauren even more regal.
