Feeling inspired by Koven’s words of encouragement, Lucy returned to her room to wait for Matthew so that they could leave together.
Lucy was unaware, but during the short time she spent with Koven, Matthew had become entangled with Samantha.
After parting briefly from Lucy, a group of people quickly gathered around Matthew.
Some were genuinely interested in discussing business, but others had different intentions.
The people who harbored ill intentions even played dumb despite Matthew’s clear disinterest.
Yup, those people were none other than the social-climbing ladies who stubbornly denied their intentions even after being exposed.
People like these could always be seen lurking at such events.
Despite the awkward situations, these people still sought to capitalize on such encounters. One side would be motivated by lust while the other by financial gain.
Matthew had attended many events like these, and he always kept a distance from people like them. However, no matter how hard he tried, some people always managed to get too close. It was impossible to shake them off.
Matthew had just parted ways with a company's executive and was lifting a glass of red wine to his lips when a woman with an attractive figure came into view.
However, it was not Lucy.
“Hello,” the unfamiliar woman greeted Matthew politely.
Matthew did not want to be rude, so he had no choice but to respond with a hello too.
The woman’s voice was pleasant, but it sounded forced. It was obviously not her natural voice.
“Oh, it’s you.”
Matthew took a few steps back, realizing that the woman was trespassing on his personal space. When she heard him speak, she approached him even closer.
Matthew knew all too well what this woman was up to.
However, she acted as if she could not see him stepping away.
“What do you want?”
Matthew’s patience was being tested. Apart from Lucy, he had little patience for anyone else. nce that patience ran out, he would become irritable.
Startled by Matthew’s tone, the woman stuttered, “I… I just wanted to get to know you, Mr. Leon…”
