While driving to the company with Lucy, Matthew could not help but feel uneasy. He was even getting a headache, seemingly dreading what was to come.
Lucy glanced at him from time to time, feeling puzzled. When they were halfway there, she finally asked, “Matt, why do you look so nervous? Aren’t we just meeting your mother? Why do you look like we’re on the way to hell?”
Matthew shook his head without saying a word, making Lucy even more curious.
What kind of woman was Matthew’s mother to make him look so distressed? Could she be like the evil stepmother in fairy tales?
Laughing at her own imagination, Lucy shook her head to get rid of such thoughts. If Matthew had turned out like this, how bad could his mother be? There was no way she would be as bad as she imagined.
However, looking at Matthew’s expression, Lucy could not shake off the feeling that his mother might be even scarier than an evil stepmother. After mentally preparing herself, Lucy felt a little better.
She decided that no matter how shocking Mattew’s mother was, she was ready to wholeheartedly accept her.
Soon, Matthew’s car arrived at the company.
He got out and went over to Lucy’s side to help her out of the car.
When he looked up, he saw a beautiful woman with big eyes saying something at the company entrance. Meanwhile, his assistant was standing beside her with his head lowered.
Matthew was speechless. Was that his mother, Gabriella Sharpe? A sense of frustration emerged within him when he saw his assistant nodding beside her. How useless could his assistant be?
He could not even stall his mother, yet he still expected a raise. When he got to his office, he was going to cut his assistant's entire salary instead.
