In the study, Matthew pinched the bridge of his nose and sighed when he heard Eleanor's words. "What kind of men do you like?" he asked.
"Are you talking nonsense? The answer is you." Eleanor huffed.
Matthew was speechless when he heard her words. He felt that he was stupid to have asked such a question.
"I'll ask Troy to keep you company," said Matthew. Then, he hung up and called Troy.
When the call was picked up, Troy asked, "What's the matter, Mr. Kings?"
"Let Lazlo handle your job. I need you to stay with Eleanor for the time being. After all, you are quite familiar with her. Thus, you can take matters into your hand if anything happens," said Matthew.
When Troy heard his words, he couldn't help but ask, "It's not right to break your promise, Mr. Kings. You promised me a one-month holiday."
"It's the same whether you spend your holiday alone or with Eleanor. There's no difference."
"Of course there is. I—"
Before Troy could finish his words, Matthew cut him off. "Shut up! I'll give you 450,000 if you do it."
As expected, Troy snickered when he heard there would be money involved. "Deal. You're right, Mr. Kings. It doesn't matter if I spend my holiday alone or with Princess Elea… I mean Miss Gomez. It's the same. Don't forget to send the money over."
"Get lost!" Matthew growled and hung up the call.
Just as he put down his phone, the door to his study was opened. Then, Caleb and Miguel entered the room.
