Chapter 111
Matthew finally understood now. "I see. I'll arrange a candlelight dinner, book the most luxurious hotel, find the best jewelry, and buy the newest handbag for her right away.
"What do you think?"
"Mr. Leon, I think that's excellent."
Kent approved of his idea without a second thought, but in case Matthew failed to appease his wife and decided to take it out on him again, he decided to give Matthew a heads-up first.
"Of course, Mr. Leon, I'm referring to women in general. Mrs. Leon might think differently, so this strategy might not work in her case."
Matthew frowned.
"How could you suggest a plan that might fail? I need a foolproof plan. Don't you know my work ethic?"
Kent felt his head buzzing. How was that the same? The fact that Matthew was asking him for advice on how to appease his wife showed how useless Matthew was in this regard.
However, Matthew was still Kent's boss, so he had to follow his orders no matter what.
In a fit of self-pity, Kent decided to reveal the method he used to appease his wife when she was extra angry.
"Mr. Leon, if that doesn't work, I have no choice but to teach you my ultimate secret trick."
Matthew's curiosity was piqued. "What is it? Tell me now."
Gulping, Kent mentally prepared himself to get fired by his angry boss.
"Mr. Leon, first, you go to the supermarket and get yourself a cactus or a washboard."
Although Matthew did not know what this method entailed, he had a bad feeling about this.
Cactus? Was it for Lucy? What was the washboard for? Why would they need that when they had washing machines at home?
He suppressed his curiosity and continued listening to Kent.
"Then, before your wife comes home, you place the washboard and cactus at the door."
The more Matthew listened, the more confused he was.
"When your wife comes home, you'll kneel in her direction and shout your apology. I guarantee it'll solve the problem."
After hearing those words, Matthew felt thunder rolling above his head.
Kent, who was on the other end of the phone, closed his eyes, preparing to face Matthew's tirade.
However, Matthew was not as angry as Kent imagined.
He had a curious look on his face,
and he
Symasked with a hint of sympathy, "Do you usually apol to your wife like this?" Conte
Sensing that Matthew was not very angry, Kent sighed in relief.
He recomposed himself and said, "Of course, this is the ultimate trick. I use it when my wife is very, very angry. Don't worry, Mr. Leon. method may be harsh, but it's
effective. I guarantee a 70 ito nishe
success rate."
Matthew was speechless.NôvelDrama.Org: text © owner.
This method would undermine his dignity as a CEO! Should he use it or not? He was torn.
"Alright, I got it."
He simply responded and hung up. Then, he continued spiraling deeper into his conflicted thoughts. Should he do it?
After much contemplation, Matthew
decided to reserve it as a backup
plan. If he could not make his wife happy, he would use it as a last resort.
Matthew made the decision resolutely.
He made a trip to the supermarket and bought a washboard. He hid it behind the door out of guilt.
As for the cactus...
Forget it. Kneeling on that thing was going to hurt like hell.
