Все главы Young Bride in a Lightning Marriage: Never Tired of Mr. Leon’s Love: Глава 51 - Глава 60

Matthew cleared his throat. “What I mean is…”He was stuck.Lucy patted Matthew’s back considerately. “It’s okay. I’ll make sure I become number one in the world.”There were burning flames in her eyes. She was confident that she could do it.After composing himself, Matthew took the chance to brush off the awkward moment earlier and said seriously, “Wifey, if you fail, you have to do me a favor.”Lucy looked at him curiously. “What favor?”To her surprise, Matthew shook his head. “I haven’t thought about it yet. Can I tell you after?”Lucy pouted and stamped her feet. “What the heck?”She did not object to it, however.Matthew’s smile grew wider as he took that as a yes.Having made up their minds, they got to work right way as they were not the type to procrastinate.Soon, Matthew’s investment, the managers, and the artists were in place. The environment at the company began to thrive.Lucy stood at the top floor of the office, feeling somewhat dazed as she watched everyo

No matter how absurd Melanie’s words were, they went in one of Lucy’s ears and out the other.After talking for a long time, Melanie still had not gotten to the point as she was waiting for Lucy to respond.Lucy refused to speak first, but she did not want to waste any more time either. She had already spotted Matthew leaning against the kitchen doorway, patiently waiting for her.She interrupted Melanie, “Mom, get to the point. Do you want me to beg him?”Melanie said matter-of-factly, “Of course. That’s your brother-in-law’s company. How are you so thoughtless, Lulu? We’re family, so we should get along with each other.“Not only that, but we have to help each other out too. How could you ask Mr. Leon to cut off the investment and blacklist his company?”After beating about the bush for so long, Melanie just wanted to say that it was Lucy’s fault. Lucy felt a surge of anger rising within her. Her mother could not get any more shameless than this. It was a pity that she failed

The more Rohan examined, the more chills ran down his back. How could Lucy’s health get this bad? Did Matthew only just realize it now? He set down his stethoscope with a grave expression and spoke to Matthew. “I’ve completed Mrs. Leon’s health check-up, and I’ve sent the remaining blood samples to the lab to be analyzed. I’ll only be able to draw a conclusion once the results are available.”Matthew’s heart sank when he saw Rohan’s expression. He looked toward Lucy anxiously.Lucy felt a little flustered by his attitude. She took her hand out from under the blanket and grabbed Matthew’s sleeve. “Matt, is there something wrong with my body?”Matthew calmed her down and patted her hand. “Everything is fine. There’s nothing wrong with you. Get some rest. You’ll feel better when you wake up.”His gentle reassurance calmed her racing heart. She let out a sigh of relief and closed her eyes.Matthew listened to Lucy’s steady breathing and tucked her in. He shot Rohan a look, signaling

Matthew took his phone out, intending to use his power to continue putting pressure on the Quinn family. His methods may seem old-fashioned, but they were effective and foolproof.Right as he was about to make a call, his phone rang. It was his personal assistant, Brett Miller. Frowning, he answered the call.Brett’s raspy voice sounded. “Mr. Leon, I’m outside your house right now. But I’m being harassed by some stubborn lady.”Matthew raised his eyebrows. “Is it a middle-aged woman?”Brett said cautiously, “I heard that she’s Mrs. Leon’s mother, so I’m not sure what to do now.”Matthew sneered after hearing that. It was Melanie.His wife’s prediction was right.He said into the phone with a poker face, “If you can’t handle this on your own, what do I even need you for?”Matthew’s criticism made Brett panic. The salary for this job was very high, so it was not worth it to anger Matthew and risk losing his job. He quickly explained, “It’s not that I don’t want to handle it. It

Matthew let Brett get off work early, and he got back into the car he drove. He put his hands on the steering wheel, tapping his fingers on it.It had not occurred to him just now, but after looking back on Melanie’s attitude, Matthew felt like something was off. Even if Lucy was not her favorite child, she should still have a rough idea of her child’s health. How could she not know about Lucy’s condition?Moreover, Lucy’s condition was not just any ordinary illness. It was a congenital heart disease. Infants born with such diseases required special care to survive, but judging by Melanie’s attitude, it was like she had never experienced that.Now, Matthew was starting to doubt whether Melanie was Lucy’s birth mom. It was just too suspicious, so he had to do a thorough investigation.Matthew frowned and took his phone out to call the doctor from earlier. When Rohan saw that Matthew was calling, he was startled as he thought that something had happened to Lucy. He immediately pi
