Let me go, Mr. Hill [by Shallow South] Chapter 1450 â Iâm young?â Matthew was stunned. âNot really. When I was 16, my dad left his business to me. I had to study and manage many businesses like banks and hotels.â
Catherine looked outside the window.
âWhat are you looking at?â Matthew was puzzled.
âIâm looking if there are any cows outside taking a dump.â Catherine joked.
Matthew was at a loss for words.
He was telling the truth, yet she thought he was bullsh*tting.
âYou donât believe me?â
âAll I know is that when I was z1, I was still dating and worried about love every day. How am I supposed to believe you if you say youâve been managing so many businesses since you were sixteen?â Catherine shook her head. âPeople your age are at the peak of your youth. You should be dating, not earning money.â
âDo you want to introduce a girl to me?â Matthew suddenly raised his brows.
Catherine paused. âYouâre too young. I donât know anyone young and suitable for you. You should go find one yourself.â
âBut I like older girls like you.â Matthew looked at her with his Duchenne-smiling blue eyes.
Catherine was so stunned that she almost choked again. She widened her eyes. âStop. I think of you a s a younger brother. If you have any other thoughts, we cannot stay friends.â
Matthew looked at her firmly for a while before saying, âYou really donâ t want to think about it? Iâm rich.
Iâm super, super-rich. You canât even imagine the amount of money I haveâ¦â
Catherine frowned deeply. âDo you think Iâll give up my boyfriend just because you have money?â
âThatâs not what I meanâ¦â Matthew hurriedly picked up his drink and blocked the look in his eyes.
He was actually trying to test her.
âGood. Otherwise, we canât be friends.â Catherine sincerely admitted that she was a little upset and disappointed with Matthew just now. âRelying on money to attract women is not a glorious thing. Iâm not short of money either.â
âBut doesnât everyone think that the more money they have, the better? Greed is endless.â Matthew said thoughtfully.
Catherine chuckled. âYou say you are ridiculously rich, but youâ re still here eating fondue with me.
Look over there. There are working-class employees with a monthly salary of several thousand, yet theyâre eating the same things as us.â
Matthew opened his beautiful lips slightly. However, he was at a loss for words. Only after a moment did he find his voice. â Iâm very handsome âMy boyfriend is also very handsome. â Catherine interrupted him. âHeâs not inferior to you, and he also has the charm of a mature man.â
Matthew rubbed his forehead, feeling powerless. âIs there really no part of me that attracts you?â
Catherine looked at his young and handsome face and somehow felt amused. Nevertheless, she said seriously, âI really can only think of you as a younger brother. If not for that reason, I wouldnât be here eating with you. If you want to flirt, then you have the wrong person. I suggest you find someone else.â
Noticing that the patience in her eyes was gone, Matthew hurriedly said, âI was just joking. Actually I also have an older sister like you, and she looks a little like you. That was why I felt close to you when I first saw you.â
He really did not expect Catherine to have such a huge reaction to his reply.
Generally, women like her admire powerful people. Since she knew he was rich, would she not flirt with him a little?
Just as he was spacing out, Catherine looked behind him, and her face suddenly paled. Then, she cleared her throat and stood up, saying with a pleasing tone, âShaunny, why are you here?â
âHow would I know that youâre having dinner with your male colleague if I donât come here?â A gloomy voice sounded behind him.
Turning around, Mathew saw a slender and noble â looking man, dressed in a grey suit, standing behind him.
