NovelEnglishChapter 44 Lucy and Matthew finished their breakfast quietly. After the waiters took away their plates, Matthew took Lucy's hand.
"Let's go. I'll take you to have sfun." To his surprise, Lucy took a step back and shook her head. "No thank you. I suddenly remembered that I have something to do." Matthew was a little confused. "What is it? I thought you were free." He recalled Lucy's schedule and remembered that she did not have anything planned for the day.
Lucy was free, but she was reminded of what happened previously. She lowered her emotionless gaze.
"A lot of things have been going on at my company. I've already taken a few days off. I can't ignore matters there any longer." Matthew understood now. "Your comic company?" Lucy nodded.

Matthew changed his mind on the spot and turned to take her to the underground parking lot.

blankly and swept her eyes across the many cars in the underground parking lot.
"Which one of these is your car? We'll just take that one." Matthew smiled. "All the cars here are mine, wifey. Do you want to ride in every one of them?" Lucy gaped at Matthew's handsface. "These... are all yours?" Matthew nodded.

Was she really married to such a powerful man? Only then did Lucy feel how surreal everything was.
"Wifey?" Matthew waved his hand in front of Lucy. "What's wrong? You're zoning out." Blushing, she did not even bother picking a car anymore. She just randomly pointed at one.
Matthew raised his brows and said, "Porsche 911. My wife has good taste." He pulled Lucy into the car and drove off.
He kept talking while he was driving, "If you like this car, do you want it? You can drive it to work every day." Lucy turned him down without a second thought.

When they got to Lucy's company, he took out the car keys and stuffed them into Lucy's hand.
"Not only am I giving you the keys to this car so that you can commute to work, but since I'm the one who purchased it, it has my personal label on it.
"If you drive my car to work, others will know that you're married, so it'll defer any unwanted attention."
He paused for a bit and continued, "My wife is so outstanding. I'm sure you turn many heads."
