Chapter 231 His Intoxicating Proximity
"How the hell did this happen?" Matteo was annoyed at the news his secretary had just given him, regretting the
moment he left the woman of his dreams to take this call. +5 Pearls
He hadn't gone hlast night because he wanted to be with Emily, and now, in the span of a single night,
everything had spiraled out of control.
"Boss, the news of your marriage is all over every tabloid and news channel," his secretary informed him.
"Motherfucker," Matteo cursed under his breath, immediately knowing who was behind this-Lia Vassallo.
"Get my PR team on it. | want every source to retract that story, and send them all a legal notice for
broadcasting such news without my consent," he barked, running a frantic hand through his hair. Ending the call,
Matteo turned, expecting to find Emily where he had left her. But she was already up, gathering their things from
the night before.
"Mon amour, what's wrong?" Matteo asked, hurrying to her side and gently grabbing her hand as she reached for
the empty glasses. She glared at him, her silence sharp and unsettling. What just happened in a matter of
minutes? He was puzzled, unable to understand. Just moments ago, she was enjoying his company, but now she
looked like she wanted him gone.
"I'll take care of it," Matteo offered, taking the glass from her hand and moving to pick up the plates, empty wine
bottles, and cushions.
"What are you doing, Matteo Vinci?" Her voice was stern, making him cringe as he turned to face her, confusion
clouding his features. "What do you mean, ma douce?" he asked, his brow furrowing as his eyes tried to read her

"Huh, Matteo Vinci, you're really good at pretending to be innocent, aren't you?" Emily snorted. Matteo frowned
this tbut didn't interrupt. She continued, her frustration spilling out. "You're going to marry Lia Vassallo, and
yet, you stayed the whole night at my house. Now you're acting as if..." she trailed off, letting out a loud huff.
"Maybe it's normal for you, but it's not for me. So, I'd appreciate it if you'd leave, right now," she said, wrapping
her arms around herself as if shielding from the intense gaze that seemed to pierce through the walls she had
built around her heart. She wouldn't let him break through.
"Are you done?" Matteo's jaw tightened as he snapped, though there was a gentleness in his tone despite the
frustration in his eyes. "Can | speak now?"
Emily stayed silent, staring at him, waiting for whatever excuse or explanation he had to offer.
"Emily Yang," Matteo began, his voice low but charged with intensity, making Emily swallow hard. Of course, he
was one of the most successful lawyers, and the convincing power in his voice was undeniable. "From the day |
met you, | haven't been able to get you out of my mind. Even in my sleep, it's you I see."
Emily felt the mixed emotions swirling in his eyes, her pulse quickening as his gaze bore into hers.
"Yes, I'm set to marry next month. It was decided long before | ever met you," he admitted, his voice
unwavering, "It's not a marriage out of love, but a business arrangement between two families. I've accepted
that, and everything seemed fine-until..." He paused, taking a deep breath as his expression
softened, his eyes locking on hers with a look that made her feel like she was his entire world. "Until you came
into my life and turned everything upside down; Now, | can't marry Lia, and I'm going to tell my family thar"
