“If you’re not willing to help, that’s fine.


    I just want to know why Be has suddenly refused to meet me.


    ” Matthew pressed on, ignoring Elizabeth’s displeasure.


    Everything had been progressing smoothly before.


    Be even gave Ste a present.


    But then suddenly, her attitude changed, and she refused to meet him even once.


    “My mother’s decision to see you is entirely up to me,” Elizabeth responded sharply.


    Her words left no room for ambiguity.


    The only path to Be was through Elizabeth.


    Matthew realized that further discussion with Elizabeth would be unproductive and decided to end their meeting.


    He rose from his seat, intending to make his exit.


    Surprised by Matthew’s determination, Elizabeth swiftly stood up in a desperate attempt to stop him.


    “Matthew, if you leave now, I swear you’ll never meet my mother!”


    She was threatening him.


    Matthew offered Elizabeth a brief, unemotional nce.


    He brushed her hand aside and continued towards the exit.


    Just as he was about to leave, Elizabeth suddenly copsed to the floor behind him.


    Matthew paused, turning back in surprise to see what happened.


    At that moment, Be appeared, rushing to her daughter’s aid.

    However, Be wasn’t having any of it, as she assumed Elizabeth was just making excuses for Matthew.


    She walked up to Matthew, who nodded at her and greeted her politely.


    Be’s expression, however, remained stony.


    When she spoke, it was in a voice full of anger.


    “You’re Matthew, right?”


    Matthew nodded.

    “What’s with the numerous attempts to contact me these past few days?


    You know quite well that my daughter has feelings for you.


    As a married man, you should be keeping your distance, not approaching her.


    ”


    “I think you’ve misunderstood me.


    It’s you I’ve been trying to reach, not Elizabeth.


    I have something important to discuss with you,”


    Matthew said.


    Be didn’t seem satisfied with his exnation.


    “So you’re just using my daughter? I used to admire you for achieving the position of president at such a young age.


    However, I mow have second thoughts about your character as a person.


    ”


    Matthew said nothing in his defense, fully aware that Be was still in the midst of her rage.


    After a while, he finally said, “When you calm down, I hope we can have a conversation.


    ”


    Be offered no response.


    She turned away and left with Elizabeth.
