Chapter 629

Realizing that his father was indeed in the midst of negotiating a significant deal worth twenty million dollars, Greg became apprehensive.

He hastily let go of Stella’s wrist and walked off.

Stella sighed in relief and flexed her wrist.

As she was about to thank Matthew, his voice, deep and filled with questioning, interrupted her.

“Do you not realize what kind of man Greg is? Why didn’t you avoid him?”

Matthew’s voice escalated slightly, tinged with irritation.

“You’re a married woman.

”

He had waited for Stella in their private box for quite some time.

Concerned for her, he had sought her out, only to find Greg uncomfortably close to her.

The moment he finished speaking, Matthew felt a pang of regret.

He had intended to keep other men at a distance from Stella.

But somehow, words came out more accusatory than he had meant.

Stella, feeling unfairly chastised, simmered with subdued anger.

Matthew remarked as if she had deliberately provoked Greg.

Suppressing her irritation, she retorted, “Mr.

Clark, you’re overstepping your bounds.

My husband doesn’t meddle in my business, so why should you?”

“I…” Matthew caught himself just as he was about to say, “I am your husband.

”

He hesitated, then asked, “Do you comprehend the gravity of this situation? What would you have done if I hadn’t shown up? Could you have handled Greg yourself?”

Stella was dumbfounded, never expecting Matthew to question her this way.

She stared at him, her eyes filled with mixed emotions, but soon her expression turned to one of relief.

In a tone that was neither deferential nor aggressive, she answered, “My influence may be limited, but I have my own methods of dealing with harassers.

”

She folded her arms and looked at him dispassionately.

Matthew calmed down and knew that such a quarrel was meaningless and would even affect the relationship between them.

He observed Stella’s furious expression and felt remorseful for his earlier anger.

Softening his voice, he reassured her, “You’re now an employee of Prosperity Group, and we take care of our own.

”

Stella’s face remained impassive, her tone steady.

“I’m aware.

But having experience in public relations, I can manage this minor issue myself without tarnishing the reputation of Prosperity Group.
