Saoirse looked straight at Reid. "That's it. I have told you everything about what happened between me and William."
"So...you're planning to start over and become William's wife?" Reid asked thoughtfully.
"To be frank, I am already his wife. Many years ago, we have sworn to be husband and wife."
Reid stared at Saoirse.
In a few seconds, he made sense of everything she had told him.
In the first place, Saoirse and Matthew had sworn to be husband and wife eight years ago. She had been looking for Matthew again after her surgery, but Matthew was already in a relationship with Selina.
According to his most recent information, Selina had broken up with Dylan, and her relationship with Matthew was smooth sailing.
This made things much more interesting.
Saoirse's sudden appearance would definitely give Matthew a headache and act as a rift in Matthew and Selina's relationship.
It didn't matter whom Matthew chose in the end, he was bound to offend the other person.
As for these two women, both of them were not to be trifled with due to their wealthy background.
Reid smiled deviously to himself.
Saoirse's sudden appearance had came at an opportune time for him.
Reid coughed dryly. "Alright then, Miss Saoirse. I will take my leave to verify everything that you have said. If it is true, I will bring Matthew to reunite with you immediately. Is that okay with you?"
Before Saoirse could reply, Liselle cried out, "What more is there to verify? How dare you imply that my lady is lying!"
Saoirse glanced at Liselle with disapproval. "Mind your manners."
Liselle looked indignant but fell silent obediently.
"Sure." Saoirse politely replied, "Mr. Perry, thank you very much for your help. I am extremely grateful."
"It is entirely my pleasure, Miss Saorise. Please be patient and I will get back to you as soon as possible."
"That's perfect, I apologize for troubling you."
Matthew and Selina would be registering their marriage in two days.
That auspicious day happened to be on a Sunday.
Matthew had made careful preparations.
The first time they'd obtained their marriage certificate, it had just been a simple affair at the Civil Affairs Bureau. This time around things would be different.
He wanted to give the biggest surprise to Selina on that day.
In the president's office, an assistant was reporting to Matthew.
"Mr. Perry, I have prepared a helicopter that will skywrite declaring your undying love to Miss Whitlock, a balloon release event and lastly fireworks that will light up the whole city..."
Matthew nodded in approval. "You've done great. Make sure everything goes off without a hitch."
"Don't worry, sir. There won't be any mistakes." With that, the assistant left the room.
As soon as he closed the door, the assistant's cell phone rang.
Looking at the caller id, he saw that Caroline was at the other end.
Previously while they had been colleagues in Perry Group, they had had a relatively close relationship. The assistant picked up Caroline's call, glad to catch up with an old friend.
She greeted him casually after he picked up the call.
"By the way, what are you currently doing in the United States?" The assistant asked off-handedly.
"I'm looking for a job. Are you still with the Perry Group?"
"Same old, same old." The assistant smiled and answered, "I've been extremely busy for the past two days because of Mr. Perry's marriage preparations."
