Chapter 278
When Love Comes Late
The other party had come fully prepared.
It led him to wonder if these individuals had some connection to Charlene.
Had Charlene been so eager to kill him upon Jeremyâs return?
Matthewâs features grew more and more serious, his brow furrowing as he connected the dots.
âMr.
Clark.
â Fernando called out to him.
Matthew withdrew his gaze from whatever distant place it had been fixed upon, meeting Fernandoâs eyes with a questioning look.
With a practiced gesture, Fernando retrieved a booklet from his briefcase.
âThe thumbnail and introduction of Donnâs art exhibition are all in this booklet.
â
Matthew took it and turned a few pages.
After a thoughtful moment, Fernando chimed in, âThey havenât figured out that car chase yet.
Considering how they Linked you to Donnâs art exhibition, and seeing how their attempt failed this time, itâs possible they might see this as a chance to strike.
For your own safety, it might be wise to steer clear of the scene for a while.
You know, just in case something were to go wrong.
â
Matthew absorbed this, the seconds ticking by slowly before he finally responded, âI understand.
â
âIf there is nothing else, Iâll go out first.
â
With a decisive nod, Matthew closed the folder before instructing, âLet Stella and Docie know that I need them to gather in the meeting room in ten minutes.
â
âIâll handle it immediately.
â Fernando nodded, acknowledging the task, and then he pivoted gracefully on his heels and left the room.
In the meeting room, Matthew settled comfortably into his seat, flanked by Stella on one side and Docie on the other.
Leaning forward, Matthew turned to Fernando and requested him to deliver the necessary materials.
Then, he explained the purpose of the assembly.
âOur company bears the responsibility of designing the invitation card for Donnâs upcoming art exhibition.
Do you have any ideas?â
Docie, the director of the design department, exuded an air of seasoned mastery.
Her years of dedicated labor had woven an air of elegance around her.

After a leisurely scan of the documents, she piped up, âDonn is a senior art master.
I think the invitation should be as simple as possible to highlight the spirit of a master.
â
Matthew stayed poker-faced, no comments escaping his lips.
Docie pondered for a few seconds, then said more specifically, âIâm thinking we start with a clean white canvasâ¦â
She stopped.
Mathew raised his head and asked, âWhat about the details?â
