Chapter 2071

She hated it, but she could only suppress the annoyance in her heart.

“I have something to report to you.

”

This time, Matthew looked at her.

But his brows furrowed tightly.

Fernando immediately noticed the displeasure on Matthew’s face.

He stepped forward and said to Lindsay, “Remember that you are my assistant.

If you have anything to report, come to me directly.

That’s the rule.

”

Lindsay felt the gazes of her coworkers sizing her up.

Of course, she also sensed a bit of subtlety in their attitudes.

Fernando scolded her, and Matthew didn’t step in to help her.

How could she not feel more embarrassed? She was at a loss, not knowing what to do.

But when she saw that Matthew was about to Leave, she quickly said, “Mr.

Clark, wait.

It’s about Stella.

Are you sure you don’t want to hear it?”

Matthew paused.

He turned and looked at Lindsay coldly.

“What about her?”

“Someone took a photo of Stella being carried by a man in his arms.

It’s all over the news online,” Lindsay replied.

As she spoke, she handed her phone to Matthew.

The senior executives, who happened to walk out of the conference room, heard this.

They exchanged wondering glances.

Then, one of them said, “Oh, I just remember I still have some work to do.

I’ll go back to my office now.

”

Another one echoed, “Me too.

I have some things to deal with.

See you all later.

”

The senior executives left one after another using various excuses.

Matthew lowered his head and stared at the photo on the screen.

Indeed, a man carried Stella in his arms.

All he could see was her face and the man’s back.

When Lindsay saw his sullen face, she felt satisfied.

Her heart was overjoyed.

What kind of a man would want to see his wife in someone else’s arms, let alone Matthew, who used to be always in control?

But the next moment, the happiness in her heart vanished.

Matthew’s cold voice sent a chill down her spine.

“What’s your point in bringing this up in front of everyone?”

Lindsay was too stunned to say a word.

She thought Matthew would be angry if he knew about this news.

She knew very well that a man like him couldn’t stand even a bit of betrayal from his woman.

But instead of getting angry at Stella, he got angry at her.

Lindsay didn’t understand.

Obviously, what Stella did was very inappropriate.

Why did he still seem to want to protect her?
