Chapter 679
It had been a long time since he heard someone call him Matt. Even if he knew that Hestia was just
trying to bewitch him so that he would let her off, Matthew still fell for it and could only sigh.
"I’m really worried about you."
Nathaniel had already taken Hesper away from him right in front of his eyes once, and Matthew could
not take such a hit again in his life, but Hestia seemed to have made up her mind.
Matthew knew that no matter what, he would never be able to persuade Hesper.
Hestia vaguely explained the whole matter to Matthew, knowing that she could never tell Matthew
about her secret deal with Nathaniel. In order to prevent Matthew from bombarding her with more
questions, Hestia suddenly thought of Vivienne.
"By the way, I also met my sister-in-law in Genecity."
Matthew immediately became silent after being shocked by this sentence. Then he said tentatively,
"Please tell me that you haven’t been cheated by some random lady... Why didn’t I myself know that I
have a wife?"
When Hestia heard Matthew’s response, she knew that Vivienne was only pining for him and it was
unrequited love, but it was really fun to use it to tease Matthew.
"It’s Vivienne Scarlett, also known as Viv," Hestia teased. "She helped me a lot and even saved my
friend. She even told me to call her Mrs. Lane." NôvelDrama.Org: owner of this content.
Matthew was at a loss for words for a short while.
"Don’t listen to her horsecrap. We’re just friends."
Listening to Matthew’s tone, Hestia knew that things must not be that simple, but Matthew seemed as if
he might become angry if she brought Vivienne up again, and the result would only become
counterproductive, so Hestia could only answer a few more question with perfunctory responses and
then hung up the call.
In any case, her phone call with Matthew did allow Hestia to obtain more information.
At least she now knew that Nathaniel was not a credible person at all. No matter whether it was
something that she had questioned before or something that she had never doubted, this person had
only been trying to sweet-talk her with half-truths or outright lies. All his responses had been perfectly
put forward, but all of them also managed to avoid answering the questions directly.
Thinking of this, Hestia suddenly felt stressed.
‘I hope I can find the person that Father is looking for soon so that I can quickly end this ridiculous
marriage with Nathaniel.’
Sylvie’s research also arrived in a very timely manner, and what she had found was quite detailed this
time. After reading it, Hestia finally knew why Nathaniel had always hated the Lanes, especially her and
Matthew.
"This is very timely." Hestia gave off a faint smirk and shook her head as if she was sighing.
"What?" Sylvie did not hear her clearly, and Hestia did not plan to repeat herself, so she hung up the
phone without saying anything.
According to Nathaniel’s description, this wedding ceremony would indeed not be simple, so it was not
a problem for Hestia to invite Rickard. Of course, she would not miss such a good opportunity to irritate
Rickard, so she added Rickard’s name to the guest list.
When Rickard saw the first version of the list, his expression turned cold, but he could only see Hestia’s
back at that time.
In any case, Nathaniel was definitely not a good choice for Hestia.
Rickard had finally broken away from his initial shock and realized that something else must be brewing
behind this marriage.
