Billionaire's Stubborn Slave Wife novel Chapter 154

For a few days, Lauren didn't see Matthew, and all she did was accompany herself every day with the various tasks Matthew had assigned.

What I heard in my ears was the news that Matthew and Emily were in and out together. Although there was some heartache, the baby inside her belly and the work in front of her accompanied her, which more or less relieved the pain in her heart.

"Lauren, this is something the president just handed down, you need to have these statements ready by the time the president gets to work tomorrow morning."

Chen Haising took a large pile of documents in his hand and slammed them on Lauren's desk. Looking at the mountain of information in front of her, Lauren had a headache.

"Chen Haixing, are you sure all this work is going to be done tonight?"

The mountain of work at hand really filled Lauren with suspicion, not sure that all these jobs were handed down by Matthew.

"Of course it is the president's orders, and there are some Miss. Shangguan's orders in the work, because we all have to leave work, so these jobs can only be given to you to do, Lauren, I really sympathize with you, not only the president is squeezing you. Even Miss. Shangguan has been bullying you, if anything, it seems that you will have a lot to suffer in the future."

Chen Haixing had a gloating face. Looked at Lauren smugly.

"Okay, you can go out, I'll get this information done before the president leaves work tomorrow."

Chen Haixing snorted coldly and turned to leave.

Lauren had to pick up the file and look at it carefully. Carefully, he tapped on the computer.

Until dark, there were still a lot of papers on the table, Lauren really felt tired, she picked up the lunch box packed for Matthew at noon, and simply ate a few bites so that the baby inside her stomach, could have a good living environment. She herself went to the floor-to-ceiling window to relax her nervousness a little.

Then focused on the computer again, crackling and tapping away, unaware of the time flying by.

When Matthew walked out of the office, he looked at Lauren, who was lying on her computer with a tired face.

He walked gingerly to Lauren's front. Looking at the dense numbers on it, Matthew's face changed dramatically.

Damn, who gave her so much to do?

The anger in Matthew's heart grew stronger as he gently slapped Lauren's shoulder.

The strength on his shoulder made Lauren, who had just fallen asleep, stand up with a 'teng'. The hands and feet are busy looking at the documents in front of them.

"Lauren, come to your senses."

The exhaustion on Lauren's face made Matthew's heart ache a little.

"It's you? Didn't you go on a date with Emily?"

Seeing Matthew in front of her, Lauren was really surprised because Chen Haixing had said that tonight, Matthew would not go back to the office. Instead, he and Emily would go to the top of the mountain to watch the sunrise.

"Why are you still working at the office at this late hour? You don't care about your own body, but also about the baby inside your belly, which is my Matthew's baby."

There was some anger in Matthew's heart about Lauren being so late and still working at the office.

"Isn't this the work you handed me Matthew, it's really strange that you handed me so much work yourself and asked me to get the statement to you before you start work tomorrow morning and now you're blaming me for working late."

Lauren rubbed her eyes, which were a little sore.

"What I have entrusted to you?"

Looking at the many unread documents in front of him, Matthew's heart fluttered.

"Of course, when Chen Haixing handed these jobs over to me. That's what it said, isn't it something you gave me to do?"

It was only at this point that Lauren felt that something was not quite right.

"Well, we'll do all this work tomorrow. Let's go home now, you must not have been able to eat dinner?"

Lauren gave a light smile and pointed to the half-eaten bento next to her.

"This was originally a bento for you at noon, but Emily said you had already eaten, so I was going to save it for myself to eat while I was working late. I ate some just now, and now I'm not very hungry."

Lauren said honestly.

"Let's go to dinner, don't you always like to go to French restaurants? Let's go now."

Matthew took Lauren's hand and headed out of the office.

"Matthew, are you sick?"

Matthew's reaction today made Lauren really weird, and her hands naturally went to her forehead.

"I'm not sick, well, now go have dinner, I'm a little hungry."

Matthew also wondered a bit about his behavior this evening, after all, it was not in line with his usual dealings.

"Aren't these documents put away? There seems to be a lot of trade secrets in there."

Lauren pointed to the papers on the table and addressed Matthew.

"No need to collect it. Put it away for now, and it's company, no one will dare to break in on their own." Lauren nodded, turned around and walked back to her office, grabbed her small bag, and left the office.

Leaving the office, they went straight to a French restaurant. The meal was very enjoyable and there was no quarrel. But Lauren definitely did not expect a bigger storm that was waiting for her. It made her suffer even more.

Elegant environment. The detailed atmosphere, the aroma of the meal, everything is so perfect. Looking at Matthew, who was sitting across from her, with the aura of a king around him, Lauren's face, always kept an elegant and faint light smile.

"Is it good? Want to order some more desserts."

Looking at the dessert in front of Lauren, who had already eaten most of it, Matthew asked gently.

A gentle smile. It gave Lauren a feeling of being flattered. She really had the illusion that what was happening in front of her was all in her dreams, and only in her dreams would Matthew treat herself so gently and care for her.

"Matthew, are you sure that's me sitting across from you right now Lauren?"

The corners of Matthew's mouth, slightly hooked up. If it were not for such an occasion, he would really like to laugh out loud. This woman, sometimes is really naive in a silly way.

"Lauren, listen up, I'm pretty sure now that the woman sitting across from me is named Lauren. and the woman who is about to face a lot of reporters."

Matthew stood up and walked to Lauren's side, his warm breath instantly surrounded Lauren, whose face, immediately rendered a layer of red.

Lauren looked up and clearly saw a hint of evil in Matthew's brilliantly handsome smile.

"What do you mean by facing a multitude of initiatives?Matthew, are you planning something again?"

The evil smile on Matthew's face made Lauren's heart, with the slightest uneasiness, completely replaced the elation of earlier.

"What do you say?"

Matthew did not answer Lauren's words positively, but instead the smile on his lips deepened.

"Come on, it's getting late, we should go back."

Lauren was so passively wrapped in Matthew's arms that she almost forgot about the bag by her side.

"Matthew, slow down."

With her wrist pulled by Matthew, Lauren walked with great effort.

"Hurry up, we'll be at the place soon."

Looking at a few reporters not far ahead, Matthew was even more impatient.

"Matthew, what the hell are you up to? I'm not going to go with you if you don't make it clear."

Lauren simply pulled on one of the rails around her to keep Matthew from pulling himself away.

"There are a few reporters up ahead, and I need your cooperation. Of course, if you don't want to, there's nothing I can do about it, it just might cause your dad some pain."

Lauren's eyebrows were furrowed tightly together.

"Matthew, the tenderness you showed me just now, the kindness you showed me, was all for the sake of these reporters, wasn't it? Once again, I am a pawn to be used in your hands, right?"

Matthew nodded without hesitation.

"That's right, everything that happened today was my arrangement to let those reporters know how close I am to you, just in time to stop Emily's plan to get close to me."

Lauren sighed softly, it seems that she really thought too much, but for Matthew to know that Emily approached her, Lauren was really surprised.

"You feel it too?"

Matthew's lips curled up in a sneer.

"I am a man, and I can guess something about this woman's mind, so I must put an end to her goodwill towards me, and if it were not for that matter, I would not let this woman come halfway near me."

Somehow, when hearing the disgust in Matthew's words, Lauren's mood, actually had an indescribable elation, forgetting about being used by Matthew.

"Okay, I'll go along with your whole plan, tell me, what do I have to do next?"

Lauren agreed to go along with his plan without hesitation, taking Matthew somewhat by surprise, and he took Matthew directly into his arms.

"Don't do anything. Just follow your feelings."

Lauren has not yet reacted, her cherry lips have already been sealed by Matthew's domineering.

"Don't move, or the reporters behind you will get suspicious."

Matthew's voice, ringing in Lauren's ears.

Lauren didn't dare to move, passively accepting this passionate kiss that made her blood boil a little.

"Okay, that's fine, go home."

After a while, Matthew suddenly let go of his hand and let Lauren fall to the ground. Then without looking back, he walked in the direction of the car.

Lauren struggled to get up from the floor, two lines of tears pouring down the corners of her eyes.

"Don't hurry up yet." Matthew's somewhat impatient voice came from the front.

Lauren rushed to his side.

Dragging her tired body and broken heart, Lauren lay down on the big bed, with the image of Matthew taking advantage of herself floating in front of her eyes.

A knock on the door made Lauren sit up from her bed. She slightly straightened her pajamas before walking to the door and opening it.

"Don't you sleep in the study?"

Seeing Matthew standing in the doorway with the document in his hand, Lauren was a little surprised. The phoenix eyes were full of incomprehension.

"I'm going to sleep in my room tonight. lauren, don't you forget, this is my room, am I going to sleep in the den all the time?"

Matthew walked into the room with a scowl on his face.

Lauren let out a soft sigh. Looking at Matthew who was seriously reading the information, her face, a bitter smile appeared. Gingerly walking to the king-size bed, she took the bed quilt and walked towards the door.

"Lauren, where are you going with this?"

Matthew looked up from among the papers.

"You have to work, I'll disturb your work in the room, I don't want to make a fool of myself and get taunted by you later, you work, I'll sleep in the next room."

"Lauren, don't you really want to, like, stay in the same room with me?"

Matthew questioned Lauren angrily.

"Matthew, can't you see the feelings I have for you? If I hated you, why did I come back to this mansion that made me suffer. If I hate you, why did I, who originally came back to take revenge, willingly become an object of use in your hands at this moment, don't you understand all these?"

Lauren looked at Matthew with a pained expression.

The stabbing pain in her heart made Lauren's tears slide down her cheeks uncontrollably anymore, and she didn't even have the slightest chance to try to get rid of the pain.

Matthew put down the paper in his hand and came to Lauren.

"Even if you like to stay in the same room with me. Why do you want to take the quilt and leave? Be good and go to the big bed and rest, I won't touch you tonight."

The huge change before and after Matthew really makes it impossible for Lauren to tell what kind of person he really is.

"Matthew, if you hate me and what my mother used to do, don't be the least bit gentle with me, I don't want that kind of tenderness, do you understand?"

Big drops of tears, like beads with broken strings, kept rolling down.

Matthew really wanted to tell Lauren his plan off the top of his head, but the words came to his mouth and he swallowed them back, he could not reveal the secrets of the organization. Otherwise, the woman in front of him will definitely be more harmed.

Matthew, who thought of this, loosened his arms around Lauren.

"Go get some rest and come with me to the site tomorrow."

Matthew's reaction really puzzled Lauren, but she obediently walked over to the king-size bed and slowly lowered the covers.

Looking at the sleeping Lauren, Matthew's face, a happy smile, gently put the quilt on Lauren's body, Matthew took the documents, once again, to leave the room, but before leaving, he did not forget to scan the room ceiling black spots.

The door of the room was just closed, the original sleeping Lauren. slowly opened the watery phoenix eyes.

Matthew. what is in your heart, why are you often taking advantage of me, but when I am asleep, but tenderly cover me with a quilt.

This question has been haunting Lauren for a long time and has kept her mind at bay.
