The marriage was forced. Matthew was forced into marriage and he obviously refused. But when he found out that the woman he married was the one he wanted. Matthew agreed. Clara was the woman who was forced to accept the arranged marriage in order to pay off their family debt. Feeling happy because she was married to someone who was considered good and at the same time her boss, Clara agreed. But all is lost when Matthew begins to be rude and mean to Clara due to his father's orders. Will Clara put up with it forever or leave? And why did Matthew's father tell Matthew to torture his own wife?
Matthew, who had been busy with some files and files upon his return from Jensen's room, now seemed to be returning to the aftermath of the factory. He no longer looked so charming with his friendly smile and warm gaze that he had been giving to the people who passed by him. She had started to get busy again with thoughts and files that needed to be completed.
Whereas a few hours ago, he was busy with the figure of Clara who kept perched in his head. He was thinking about some possibilities that would happen in the next few months about him having to marry the mother of his own flesh and blood. Of course he didn't want to let his own child be born without a father by his side. That couldn't happen because not only was he the biological father of the fetus, he also loved Clara.
"Knock! Knock! Knock!" A knock on the door sounded loudly across his desk. It broke his concentration a little. But it was no big deal, Matthew could always handle his own thoughts. He would never fall behind in the slightest. His concentration also wouldn't be broken just because of trivial things like what just happened.
"Come in!" Matthew exclaimed without the friendly smile from earlier. He had returned to the factory suit where the ammunition that would keep him smiling was completely depleted and needed to be refilled. Unfortunately there will never be anyone who can restore the mood and also the happy atmosphere in Matthew's heart other than Clara. The door creaked open, Matthew's figure was still focusing on staring at the files that had been piled up and waiting to be stroked, then signed. They were really annoying. Just because Matthew is the heir to the company, he must work diligently and diligently, no one can replace his figure perched on the throne of the Company's CEO.
"What's wrong?" Matthew asked first to the woman who had just entered as the door creaked open. He was not interested in raising his head and staring at the person who entered his room. At least if it wasn't Karen, who was the woman who was always telling him about you or about some other important things. Or more likely she was telling him about the next appointment he had to go to.
"I have a visitor for Mr. Matthew," said the woman who was indeed Karen the caller. She was happy to go into Matthew's room to tell him some important things about the guest and other schedules. And this time, Matthew was still not interested in donating his head. Even though he had heard what Karen had just said, he still did not turn his head and stare at the source of the voice. Matthew was back to his old self.
"Who?" Matthew raised his tone really drastically. Making anyone who heard it immediately move away because it was a sign of danger that would soon come out of Matthew's caustic mouth. It was really annoying. But Karen could do nothing but shut up and tell the truth.
"A young woman, I don't know who she is because I've never seen her before," Karen jawn with a face that looked wary in case M suddenly got angry and said other unnecessary things. Seeing the negative aura emanating from her superior's eyes was enough to make her sunny day suddenly gloomy, let alone hearing those annoying words from that man. Never going to happen.
"Tell him if there's nothing important to tell him to go home and not see me," Matthew said without the slightest expression. He was really annoying, even without making a sound his aura was completely different than before. But I don't know, maybe his boss was just experiencing his second puberty. Where his mood or mood is very changeable. Really annoying, isn't it?
"Yes, sir." Karen looked at her boss with a face that looked so obedient. Actually, she was about to protest and talk about how rude it was for Matthew to let the young lady out there to go home. Of course since she didn't have any business interests with Matthew, she didn't look like a career woman. Instead, she looks like a young woman or perhaps an entertainer. It was obvious from the way she was dressed who she was.
Karen who heard the order immediately stepped out of Matthew's room. She was about to ask about the woman's interest in seeing Matthew at lunchtime like this. There seemed to be something strange about her movements. But it was no big deal for Karen who was used to dealing with such guests.
Perhaps it was just the usual teasing woman who often came to see Matthew and tease her boss.
"Huh! Who comes at this time of day? Just interrupting my work!" Matthew snorted in annoyance after Karen left his office. He was not interested in going out of his office to meet any clients. His work was still piling up. He had to finish it early so he could meet Clara tonight. He would fill his ammunition by meeting her tonight. She was the only one who would never make him sneeze.
Speaking of Karen, she was indeed one of the female employees in his company. She could interact with women within a few meters. But if he was more than that, he would sneeze and never be able to continue the conversation. He had to be able to really keep his distance from any woman. And not interact with anyone.
Matthew, who still looked a little annoyed this time, tried to turn his attention that was previously occupied back to the computer and also some files that he had to study for the next business. He will really do all his duties as a Director or CEO of the company as well as possible, and close the possibility for the figure of Markus to seize the throne and also the seat that he has defended as well as possible. Matthew will never give up his position no matter what. Matthew may not be able to work perfectly, but at least he is not Markus who is only obsessed with money. He would never let that happen no matter what.
