Bumpkin’s Rich Handsome Husband novel Chapter 1135

"What's the misunderstanding?" Eleanor struggled to free her wrist from his grip, indignant. "He 'sold' me to his business partner for a business deal. He used me as a bargaining chip to get the deal. I can never put up with this humiliation!"

She grew more and more agitated as her voice echoed in the office.

Matthew sympathized Miguel. "You misunderstood. He was trying to introduce you to a talented, young man. You're not young anymore. It might be better for you to get a partner."

"Bullsh*t!" Her words were vulgar. Clearly, she was extremely angry and wasn't buying it.

"That guy has been Miguel's business partner for seven or eight years long.. Do you think he has any reason to sell you off? In terms of assets alone, the other party is not even comparable to Miguel."

"I don't believe it!" she growled, despite his effort to explain Miguel's stance.

"Come with me." He pulled her toward the desk to show her some confidential documents. "Look. Miguel has been collaborating with him for eight years. They are also friends."

The confidential information morphed her doubts into trust. Now that she finally believed him, Matthew let go of her hand.

Still, the ire in her did not subside as she swung her fist at him. "So, it was all your idea!"

He grabbed her fist again. "It's all for your own good. After you came to Bloomstead, you had no family, only us friends. If you find a good partner, he might be able to bring you the happiness of another kind."
