Ivanna urged us to eat when the food arrived, “No matter how big the problem is, you two
must fill your
stomachs before solving it. Chlo, I haven’t seen you in a few days, and you’re already as
thin as a
toothpick.”
I realized she was trying to make Matthew feel even more guilty.
He stole a glance at me and served me food while Ivanna spoke, targeting Matthew’s
weak spot,
Matthew, you must find a way to stop things from escalating. This problem will affect Chlo
and the
company’s reputation. 1
“Nonetheless, the business must go on, right? I know how hard you two have worked to
build Tanum Corporation.”

happy.” 1
“I don’t give a damn! You knew cheating would crush her, but you did it anyway. Why
didn’t you think about her feelings then?” Ivanna continued to criticize him.
Matthew turned flushed as he gritted his teeth.
“I don’t know much about your company, and Chlo hasn’t told me anything. Chlo, you
need to start telling me things. Are we even best friends? The most urgent thing is to stop
this situation from worsening.”
Ivanna looked at Matthew. “Hey, share your thoughts. It’s better to have more minds
turning. We need a quick solution. Although I’m an outsider, I don’t want to see you two
like this.”
“I want Chlo to step forward…” Matthew grabbed my hand and held it tightly. “Chlo, I want

I cursed him inwardly. He expected me to be his shield even in such a humiliating
situation.
You’ve got some nerve! Haven’t you humiliated me enough?!” I pulled my hand away and
questioned, What am I to you?”
“Chlo, don’t be hasty, Let’s discuss this properly and develop a win–win situation.” Ivanna
deliberately restrained me, “In this situation, you must consider the bigger picture”
Matthew nodded repeatedly. ‘Chio, she’s right. ATL Empire has already dropped us from

Matthew’s face turned reddened in embarrassment,
“Matthew, we must devise a plan to discredit the news, right?” Ivanna’s words made us
realize
something, and Matthew’s eyes lit up.

kitchen! Matthew, just order some takeout. I’m starving. Given your current moods, I
wouldn’t dare eat the food you cook.
“Let’s enjoy some good food while we discuss things. A good meal can always make us
feel better, after
all.”
Matthew quickly complied and ordered several takeout dishes. Then he pulled me over to
sit beside him,
speaking gently to soothe me..
I couldn’t help but admire Ivanna’s quick thinking. Her idea to devise a plan would benefit
me at this
critical moment, and only she could say what I couldn’t. Despite Matthew’s cunning
nature, his defenses
were the weakest now.
