The Doormat Wife’s Ultimate Glow-Up novel Chapter 450

Matthew finally relaxed when he saw her smile. He let go of her hand. The drive was smooth, the car weaving past all the usual traffic. In just over half an hour, they pulled up in front of the Vista Tech office tower. The building stood right in the middle of the old city, a familiar landmark in Bridger Lake’s business scene.

They parked and walked into the lobby. The elevator took them up to Vista Tech’s floor, where the receptionist greeted them with a practiced smile.

“Who are you here to see? Do you have an appointment?”

“I’m here for Hank.”

She barely finished speaking before Hank stepped out of another elevator. He stopped dead in his tracks when he saw Reese and Matthew, shock all over his face.

“Reese, what are you doing here?”

Reese skipped the small talk. “I’m here about the Blade project and to sign the share transfer agreement.”

Hank looked stunned for a second, then hurried to show them in. “Let’s go to my office... It’s quieter there.”

Inside, Hank poured warm water into glasses and set them down for Reese and Matthew.

“Reese, you really don’t owe the Meyer family anything anymore. After everything that’s happened...”

He trailed off, unable to meet her eyes. He clearly didn’t have it in him to ask her for help.

Reese didn’t respond right away. She picked up her glass, took a slow sip, and finally spoke.

She paused, her tone turning serious. “But let’s be clear. I’m taking ninety percent of the profits.”

A real smile finally broke through on Hank’s face. The Meyer family was hanging by a thread. Landing this project meant they might actually survive, maybe even turn things around. At the very least, it would buy them time and restore some credibility.

He got it. Reese was already going above and beyond. She didn’t owe them anything. If anything, they owed her.

“Deal,” Hank said, not hesitating.

Reese nodded. “My assistant, Vivian, will reach out to iron out the details. We’ll get the contract drafted soon. You’ll need to provide all your company’s documentation.”
