Chapter 049 She Was a Top Chef? Hearing her say “our”, Matthew’s heart skipped a beat, but he was not confused.
“This matter is too big. You have to allow me to go back and discuss it with my father.”
“Of course.” Hailey nodded. Matthew looked up at her. “For such a big project, is it too risky to rely on our
two families? The investment in the early stage is not small.” “Well, I took into account the strength of the Holland family, so I pulled you into a stake. If you think it is risky, we can find another partner.” Hailey was very
easy-going. Matthew’s eyes lit up. “So can Owen…”
“Except for Owen.” Hailey knew what he wanted to say, so she dismissed the
candidates in his heart.
Matthew said, “Why? In business, regardless of the geographical location or
economic strength, Mazedew Group is the best choice for us. It just so happens that Owen also has this intention, isn’t it just right?” Hailey lowered his eyes and said indifferently, “I don’t want to cooperate with him.”
“This is a bit unfair.”
Matthew seized the opportunity to “educate” her. “Owen is not someone who doesn’t know how to differentiate between work and personal life, and I think the same goes to you. If the three of us can work together, it’s going to get

Hailey frowned. Just as she was about to speak, Matthew said, “You just
returned to Crystaldale to preside over the overall situation. It is time for you to establish your prestige.

Matthew said, “Of course you are not afraid, but with the Moore family involved, when the time comes, you will have more power to face them, right? Moreover, you can compare who is more handsome when I work with Owen.” He started joking again after being decent for a while. Hailey glared at him and said, “Do you think I want to compare?” Besides, she had seen all of Owen.
“Don’t worry, Owen and I can take 30 percent. The boss is still you. When you
are the boss, he has to listen to you. It will feel good, right? Just make him do all the dirty work.”
“Are you really close brothers?” Hailey looked speechlessly at Matthew, who had a wicked smile on his face.
“We are.” Matthew said seriously, “Well, that’s what friends are for. Also, us men are always preaching ‘hoes over bros’.” Hailey nodded. She agreed with this particular point. The dishes were served one after another. There were risotto, raviolli, pasta and even the classic aglio olio. The plating of all of these food proved that the chef was a capable one. Matthew was also a foodie. He was full of praise for every dish, just like a
gourmet. Hailey was hungry. She concentrated on the food and listened to his endless
evaluation while she just ate silently. “No, why does it taste so familiar?” Matthew pursed his lips and suddenly remembered what Hailey said when she came in. He couldn’t help but ask, “What is the surname of the chef who
