All Chapters of Flash Wedding: Terrifying Bride Is a Softie: Chapter 21 - Chapter 30

The well-wishes from everyone made Matteo squirm a little. At the end of the day, his marriage to Abigail was only for show. Sooner or later, they would be going their separate ways.As if sensing his discomfort, Abigail lowered her voice and reminded him, "Act natural. Otherwise, what's going to happen if your grandpa sees through our act later? Do you want him to worry about you?"Matteo thought she had a point. Once he composed himself, he brought Abigail with him into George's room. The old man, who had been resting, immediately perked up when he saw Matteo."Matteo, you're here! And this is?"George looked puzzled, but the moment he saw Abigail, he could already tell she was a wonderful young woman.Matteo pressed his lips together before saying earnestly, "Grandpa, this is my wife, Abigail Pearce. I brought her here to meet you today."George met Matteo's eyes and instantly realized something. The last time Matteo had come to see him alone, he'd looked visibly stiff at the

Craig hastily cut Matteo off. "Enough of that. Stop being so hesitant about it. This is one of our biggest clients. As long as we handle this discussion properly, we'll get all kinds of deals coming our way! I'm only sending you because I know you're capable enough to handle it."He reached out and patted Matteo on the shoulder. "Come on, Matt. I'm your uncle. Would I lie to you? Just go to the meeting. Nothing bad is going to happen."Looking at the documents in front of him, Matteo raised an eyebrow. He immediately deduced Craig's true motives. Things wouldn't have seemed as fishy if Craig hadn't said that last sentence—but he did, and it meant that something was certainly up with this so-called meeting.He picked up the documents and stood up. "Fine. I understand. I'll deliver them myself."It wasn't until Matteo had left that Craig finally breathed a sigh of relief and hurriedly made a phone call. "Rest assured, Ms. Wilde. He's already agreed to deliver the documents himself."

"So, Matteo, are you still leaving?" Natasha's voice was calm, but it was clear she wasn't backing down.In the end, Matteo curled his lips into a cold smile, turned around, and sat down in the chair opposite her."You don't need to threaten me like this, Ms. Wilde. I'm just the HR director. It's none of my business whether the company goes bankrupt," he said."Why didn't you come to the hotel yesterday?" Natasha frowned, her gaze doubtful as she eyed him.She wouldn't have had to rush into the marriage if Matteo had shown up yesterday. Even though she'd been meaning to marry Cameron all along, willingly choosing to marry someone and being forced into it were two completely different things."So you really did set up the whole thing yesterday. You called Craig and instructed him to do so, didn't you?" Matteo retorted, his tone grim. "But anyway, you're already getting married. It won't cause any problems for you even if Cameron was the one who showed up yesterday."Natasha stood

Matteo was still lost in thought when Bertha spoke again. "Abigail, this is the groom, right?"She turned to Matteo. "I've prepared your suit. I'm a designer too, you know—now let me show you my best creation. I spent over two months working on it. If Abigail hadn't asked me to—"This time, Abigail cut Bertha off. "When did you become such a chatterbox?"Bertha and Matteo both stopped and simultaneously turned to look at Abigail."Have one of your male employees come over and take him to try it on. And don't call me by that disgusting nickname," Abigail added.Bertha looked at Abigail and couldn't help rolling her eyes. "Come along, Mr. Fulton. Your suit is ready. I'll take you to try it on."Matteo paused in confusion. "You? You're going to help me try it on?""Even if I wanted to, a certain someone wouldn't let me." Bertha glanced at Abigail again before smiling as she explained, "My assistant is inside. He'll help you."Sure enough, when Matteo opened the door, he saw a youn

Matteo was somewhat surprised. Once he realized what had happened, he smiled helplessly. After thinking it over, he finally sent a message."I know you're behind what happened today. I want to thank you, but it feels like it won't be sincere enough if I only do it with words, so… Nevertheless, thank you."Abigail's reply came within seconds. "Then you can thank me in a more sincere way."Puzzled, Matteo didn't quite figure out what she meant before she messaged him again. "You can buy me a meal."Seeing the message, he couldn't help breaking into a wide smile before agreeing without hesitation. "Sure."Matteo suddenly recalled the project he'd worked on in the past involving an international cruise. It happened to be the cruise's promotional period, and he'd earned enough to afford the tickets. Although Abigail had given him quite a bit of money, he wasn't going to touch those funds unless absolutely necessary.In the end, Matteo bought a cruise package, intending to give it to
