"Jeffery and your stepmother are incompatible, and you know that better than I do. He hates that
woman so much that he comes to me because he is aware that I know many people. He wanted me to
do him a favor and put that woman away. However, the person who did this was not effective and
something went wrong. But it wasn't a big deal. You and Jeffery don't like that woman anyway. It's
better now that she's gone, so she won't bother you."
Declan didn't notice Matthew's face. He just felt that the atmosphere in the box was inexplicably cold.
He was a little annoyed.
The three women standing by the door looked unneeded. So, he shouted in a deep voice at the door to
the manager, "Get them out of my face."
The manager dragged these women out with a few of his men.
Matthew slightly raised his eyelids with a look that was hard to tell his emotions, "Mr. Bailey is really
unusual. Now the banners of the fight against pornography and crime are everywhere. Your club is still
open as usual. And you even dare to kidnap people."
"I did it as a favor to Jeffery! He was unable to do this kind of thing personally due to his status, so he
asked me to do it."
Declan leaned against the couch and turned his head, "Mr. Nelson, are you really here today to have
fun, or ..."
He knew Jeffery's relationship with Matthew. Otherwise, he wouldn't be so honest. This was no small
matter. He put a lot of thought into it before he spoke.
If he hid something and Matthew heard it from Jeffery, then he would be in a difficult position.
"What does Mr. Bailey think I'm here for?"
Declan looked into Matthew's eyes, froze for a moment, and said with a smile, "People who come to
my place are of course here for pleasure."
"Mr. Bailey, you've let me down today." Matthew's tongue licked across his incisors, which made him
look even more arrogant than Declan. He sounded fierce but had a calm look, "It's not what it used to
be. Mr. Bailey, you have to be more cautious. Don't be played for a fool by someone and not even know
it."
Declan's face changed, "What do you mean?"
He meant something other than what he said?
Matthew got up. Armand and Boyce also stood up.
His gaze was cold, "Mr. Bailey, he asked you to do such a simple small thing as catching a woman
because it was inconvenient for him, or because he didn't dare to do it himself?"
Declan's eyes narrowed. What did he mean?
Jeffery was using him?
"Mr. Nelson, are you kidding me? He is your uncle. Instead of taking his side, you take mine. Do you
think I will believe that?"
Jeffery was his uncle. Did he come to test him by uncovering Jeffery?
At this time, Declan didn't dare to believe Matthew's words. After all, he and Jeffery were on the same
side.
"It's up to Mr. Bailey to believe it or not. I just can't bear to see anyone being used without knowing it
again," he didn't say more, "Mr. Bailey, I'd like to thank you for your hospitality today."
"Please don't say that. Mr. Nelson, I didn't let you enjoy yourself today. Be sure to let me know in
advance next time you come. I will definitely let Mr. Nelson have a good time."
Declan was a little distracted. If Matthew meant something in his words, then this was an obvious
reminder.
And, he used the word again. What did he mean? Did someone else get used by Jeffery and didn't
know it before him?
"Mr. Nelson, can you explain it to me?" he stood up and walked over, "Mr. Nelson, do you know
something?"
Matthew said meaningfully, "Has Mr. Bailey heard about Eddie?"
"Although it was covered, everyone in the circle knew about it. He suddenly lost everything at his age.
It was so bad ..." However, he soon realized something and felt that something was wrong. What did
Matthew mean by suddenly mentioning Eddie?
"So you're saying that Jeffery had something to do with what happened to Eddie?"
Matthew flicked his collar, which had no dust, and his expression and tone were both meaningful, "Did I
say that? Mr. Bailey, don't give me any trouble."
Declan soon understood. Matthew had concerns. Jeffery was his uncle after all. How could he openly
dig up dirt on him?
At this point, Armand butted in just in time, "Jeffery is old and nosy. He also wants to be in charge of
other people's marriage, regardless of whether they like it or not. It's annoying for those old people to
impose their ideas on others."
After hearing for so long, Armand finally understood. Matthew tried to turn Declan and Jeffery against
each other and became suspicious of each other. He played both ends against the middle.
Just now Matthew had thrown out Eddie as bait. So now he had to give Declan a reason why Matthew
told him about it so that he wouldn't be suspicious.
Jeffery forced Matthew to get married, so Matthew was unhappy with Jeffery. Then, he dug up dirt on
Jeffery in front of Declan.
Matthew pretended to be unhappy and glanced at Armand, "No one would treat you like a mute if you
didn't speak."
Armand lowered his head, "I'm telling the truth."
"I'm sorry, Mr. Bailey."
Declan gave a smile, "It's normal for you to be urged to get married at this age. Jeffery is your uncle.
He cares about your marriage for your own good. It's unworthy for you to have a grudge over this."
He said this, but what he thought was not this. If, as Armand said, Jeffery had forced Matthew's
marriage, it was possible for Matthew to be upset with him.
Matthew said in front of him that Eddie ended up like this because of Jeffery. Although it was a little
mean to do so, it was possible. After all, Matthew was known in the circle like this. He had always been
decisive and ruthless. If he suffered a loss, he would get it back in double.
Jeffery must have gone too far to annoy him.
After Matthew left, Declan called the manager in.
He was not a child and would not believe them just based on their words. He had to investigate it
clearly before he could rest assured.
"You go and find out if Jeffery ever forced Matthew to marry any woman. Also, inquire if Eddie's affair
has anything to do with Jeffery."
The manager said, "I'll do it as soon as I can."
Declan waved his hand impatiently, "Just go."
He hoped it wasn't true. If it was true ...
He repeatedly mumbled Jeffery's name. Jeffery used him? Did he think he was a pushover?
Walking out of the nightclub, Matthew glanced at Boyce, "I'll meet you at the office."
After that, he got into the car. Armand was gossipy and bumped Boyce's shoulder with his.
Then, he slightly raised his chin and looked at Jasmine who stood next to Boyce, "When did you guys
know each other? Why didn't you tell us? You're afraid we'll steal her, huh?"
"Don't be ridiculous. I did it at someone's request." Boyce glared at Armand, "Why are you still here?"
Armand smiled and walked to the car. As he walked, he sized Jasmine up. Then he smacked his lips.
This girl was too young. Boyce actually wanted to rob the cradle.
"Boyce is older but innocent. You should be good to him." Armand winked at Jasmine.
