Lemira had always suspected that Asher was only marrying into the Waverlies for their influence, given her health issues.
But to her surprise, he was actually becoming a son-in-law who moved into his wife's family home.
Given Asher's strong personality, Lemira doubted this arrangement would work out.
Matthew raised an eyebrow, "You really don't know anything, do you? This marriage was arranged a year ago."
"I honestly had no clue. He rarely comes home and never mentioned it."
In her past life, Lemira only found out about this after college, and even then, it was through Evelina's gossip.
Back then, Asher never mentioned being a son-in-law, probably too ashamed to admit it.
Lemira smirked coldly, "No wonder the Langston family has been thriving this year. Asher has been too busy to even visit his hometown."
It must be the resources from the Waverlies that allowed Asher to grow his business so rapidly.
Not just Asher, but Caspian and Alaric too had seen great success, all thanks to the Waverlies' support.
Matthew chimed in, "What right does a man living off his wife's family have to threaten you?"
Lemira had a clearer picture now.
She turned to Matthew, "Thanks for coming. But how did you know to find me here?"
Her press conference was supposed to be a secret, shared with only a select few, including Orion.
"I happened to see you leaving TG Group today, so I got curious and found out about this conference," Matthew said, leaving out that he had eavesdropped on his mother's conversation about Lemira, which led him here to save the day.
Lemira didn't dwell on it and addressed the PR team from TG Group, "Looks like we won't be able to hold the conference here."
