Chapter 599
The sight made a wave of jealousy wash over Matthew.
Kent glanced up and caught sight of the two figures on the second floor. He could not help but worry for Hudson.
Matthew climbed up to the second floor and found Hudson and Lucy sitting across from each other, laughing and talking.
He walked over to them, his face stormy with anger.
Lucy saw him coming and quickly smiled. She waved him over to join them.
Hudson noticed Matthew approaching and let out a little laugh. He could tell from Matthew's face that he was feeling really jealous.
Matthew sat down beside Lucy and looked at Hudson with a frosty stare. "Mr. Xender, does it really take this long to show my wife around the office? And you have to eat together too?"
Hudson saw the look on Matthew's face, turned to Lucy, and shrugged his shoulders. He threw up his hands like he did not know what to say.
Lucy turned to Matthew and gave him a little poke. "Mr. Xender was a huge help to me this morning, and he's even going to use my first draft. So, let's treat him to lunch, okay?"
Matthew felt his jealousy bubble up a little more at her words, but he kept quiet.
The two men stared each other down for a short while.
Lucy could not stand the tension anymore and said she needed to use the bathroom. That was when Hudson finally said, "Lucy is incredibly talented. I'm so grateful you brought someone like her to my company."
Matthew relaxed a little and replied with a smile, "You're just working together, that's all." Hudson did not say anything back and just kept eating.
After a while, Lucy came back. She turned to Hudson and said, "Mr. Xender thanks a lot for today. Next time, Matthew and I will take you out to eat. We won't bother you anymore today. We're heading off."
"No problem. Goodbye," Hudson said. Then, Lucy and Matthew left together.
From the second floor, Hudson watched them get into their car and made a phone call. "Hey, Koven. How's the investigation going?"
Koven's sleepy voice came through. "I was sleeping. Could you not be so bothersome?"
"Just tell me!"
Koven sat up and said seriously,
"This is more complicated than we
thought. I looked into that secret
investor. They're linked to Spades. Looks like this is tied to Charlotte."
Hudson hung up after hearing that. Koven stared at his phone and muttered, "Seriously? No decency at all. I was about to say I'd be visiting him soon! Seriously!"
After Hudson hung up the call, he was lost in thought, unsure what to do next.
...
"Mr. Zimmer, this is a photo our guy
snapped secretly." A person in al black stood next to Daniel Zimmer. A spade symbol peeked out from his shirt collar now and then. ContentMaterial © of NôvelDrama.Org.
Daniel looked at the two people in the photo-Lucy and Hudson-sitting across from each other. They were all smiles and laughter.
He gave a small laugh at the photo before sending it off to someone else.
Soon after, his phone buzzed with a new message: [Spread this photo to all the big entertainment news outlets. It'll be great to see them lose their reputation!]
