Dolores turned her head to look at Matthew and asked rhetorically, “Is the thing that I had done that
obvious?”
“What you did was subtle, it’s just because I know you too well.” Matthew looked at her with a smile,
“Do we have a mutual affinity?”
Dolores was speechless.
She did not argue with him, “I think Armand still loves Theresa.”
“He doesn’t change. He just made some mistakes in the past.” Matthew spoke out for his friend, “You
shall advise Theresa.”
“I can’t read her mind,” Dolores said frankly. She also hoped that someone could take care of Theresa.
Instead of finding a new boyfriend for her, she preferred Armand to be her boyfriend. Although he had
made some mistakes before, he had learnt his lesson.
‘However, Theresa treats him indifferently. She’s not willing to give him a second chance.’
She said that she wanted to hold a celebration party for Boyce and that was sincere, after all, Boyce’s
ability and character were competent for this position. She also wanted to make use of the celebration
party to create an opportunity for Theresa to spend time with Armand at the villa.
“All people have their styles of living. You don’t have to worry too much about it.” Matthew did not want
her to bother about other people’s business.
Dolores understood what he meant, “I won’t interfere, I’ll just create some opportunities for Armand. It’s
a good thing if they can continue to be in a relationship. If they can’t, I can only say that that’s destiny. I
won’t persuade Theresa. If she still loves Armand, she will see the good in Armand. If she doesn’t love
him anymore, it’s useless to persuade her.”
“It’s good that you understand.” Matthew agreed with her.
He did not like to meddle in other people’s love affairs and he hoped that Dolores would not interfere
too much too. They were all adults and had their own ways of thinking. It was okay to assist but not
okay to impose one’s ideas on others.
While they were talking, the car drove into the underground car park of the company. Matthew parked
the car and pushed the door to get down. When he came over to open the door for Dolores, she had
already opened the door and got down. Matthew held her hand.
Dolores struggled for a moment, “Will this be bad?”
After all, it was all over the internet previously. There were speculations about her identity and rumors
saying that she was an 18th-tier star and so on.
Although she did not care, she did not want to be talked about either. Some of the unpleasant words
made her sad.
Matthew glanced at her, “What’s wrong with that?”
They were real husband and wife. Dolores was not a cheater and he was not meeting a mistress. They
were open and honest. The more they hid it, the more people would imagine.
Dolores was unable to beat him, so she could only let him hold her hand and walk into the lift.
The rumors on the internet were so hot that they were spread in the company. When they saw them
appeared in the company together, they greeted them more enthusiasm than usual.
The lift stopped with a ding and soon the door was opened. They walked out one after the other.
Passing the secretary’s desk, Matthew asked, “Thirsty?”
Dolores nodded, “I’m a bit hungry.”
She did not eat anything this morning and now she was hungry.
“What do you want to eat? My secretary will go and buy it.”
“Stir-fried pumpkin with yolk, sachertorte, caramel pudding and red bean cake,” Dolores said a series of
desserts, now she was on the verge of drooling thinking about the food.
Matthew turned around and looked at her. All of them were sweet, but if she liked them then he would
still buy them, he ordered his secretary to buy them, “Buy freshly squeezed juice too.” After saying that,
he added, “Fresh orange juice.”
He was worried that the sweet desserts would make her feel disgusting so the fresh orange juice which
had some acidity could compensate for the sweetness.
The secretary answered, “I’ll go and buy now. The head of the public relations department came to see
you just now and she asked me to call her when you come here, shall I call her to come over now?”
Matthew said yes, “Ask her to come.”
After saying that, he led Dolores into the office. The secretary saw that his boss was very considerate
to Dolores. Thinking of the denigration of some keyboard warriors on the internet, she could not help
but sneered at those uninformed people who liked to speculate blindly.
After entering the office, Dolores said, “Do what you need to do, I’ll wait for you in the lounge.”
Matthew did have some works to do, so he told her to wait for him in the lounge, “If you want to sleep,
just take a nap on the sofa.”
Dolores said yes but she was repulsed in her heart, it did not seem appropriate for her to sleep at his
working place.
She sat on the sofa and picked up a random book to read.
After a short while, there was a knock on the office door. Matthew looked up and said, “Come in.”
Soon, the head of the public relations department pushed the door and walked in, inadvertently seeing
Dolores sitting on the sofa, she greeted her with a smile, “Hello, Mrs. Nelson.”
Dolores was extremely uncomfortable with this title and smiled stiffly, politely nodding at her as a
response.
“Anything?” Matthew put down the document in his hand and leaned back on his chair.
“Have you read the news about you?” The head of the public relations department asked openly.
Matthew replied yes softly.
“Our official account is going to be in deep trouble soon. I think you have to make some clarifications,”
The head of the public relations department said.
Matthew frowned, ‘What does the official account have to do with me?’
‘The official account is the corporate official account, not my personal account.’
“What had happened?”
The head of the public relations department explained, “It’s like this, don’t you see that the followers of
our official account have reached 70 million?”
Matthew leaned lazily, “Isn’t it the business of the PR department?”
The head of the public relations department smiled, “Yes, it’s our business, however, a corporate
account can’t attract so many people’s attention.”
“So?”
“That’s why we will usually post the photos of the business owners.” The head of the public relations
department said truthfully, “The people are not paying attention to the business but the business
owners. They pay attention to the business incidentally.”
Matthew glanced at her. He always trusted her ability. He really did not pay too much attention to public
relations. He would glance at the official Weibo occasionally but he did not pay too much attention to
what was posted. After listening to her words, he browsed through the previous posts on the official
Weibo.
He was shocked to see that the posts were all his photos.
“You’re more attractive than the business, so think of it as an advertisement for the company,” The
head of the public relations department said.
Matthew had a headache. He pressed his brow hard, “So, you’re the one who created all my troubles?”
The head of the public relations department explained unhurriedly, “How dare I create trouble for you, I
just think you can take this opportunity to disclose your wife’s identity and let the employees attend
your wedding feast.”
Matthew raised his eyes. It was clearly a mocking tone, but there was a smile on his face, “From what
you’re saying, I still have to thank you?”
“If you think I’ve done you a favor, just give the employees a large amount of money when you get
married.” The head of the public relations department was very good at reading people’s minds. She
knew that Matthew was not angry before she said this, “You are single before but now you have
suddenly appeared in the public with your wife, which will naturally attract many attentions. It’s because
there is no wedding feast, so the public does not know that you are married. There are many good and
bad speculations about your wife’s identity. Of course, the good ones are good and the bad ones are
really bad. I think it’s time you give your wife an identity.”
She said all these by putting herself in the shoes of a woman. Although she could see that Matthew
treated Dolores very well, without a proper identity, there would always be speculation.
How could Matthew not wish to? He had been thinking about it for a long time, but there were so many
things that happened and delayed it and now she was pregnant.
“I know about this. You can leave and do your business now.” Matthew understood her
words.
