Chapter 526 Zed Got Stabbed (1/2)

”Yes. I sent Matthew to a foreign country, but not to help him shirk his responsibilities as you said.

To lighten things up, he thought it would be a good idea for us to go out for drinks once Christina left. I knew that he loved Christina, so I went out ahead with the plan without saying anything.

We took a private room and started drinking quite seriously. An hour into our session, Christina suddenly showed up in our room and tried to seduce Matthew who had gotten himself drunk silly. At that time, Matthew had an inkling about Christina's intention behind her passionate embraces. He tried to push her away but Christina hugged him more fervently.
