Stella opened her eyes and smiled weakly in response.

Observing her gradually calming down, Matthew let out a sigh of relief.

“Change her out of these wet clothes.

I’ll wait outside,” Matthew instructed.

Matthew shook his head, declaring, “No.

“Today’s press conference is crucial for both me and Prosperity Group.

If it’s postponed, what will the media say? It won’t matter how good our designs are; the public will perceive our company as untrustworthy.

Nobody wants to invest in a dishonest enterprise.

Her grip tightened around Matthew’s hand.
