When Matthew caught up with Sasha, she was weeping silently in a corner. "Don't be sad, Sasha. Honestly, it's not that big of a deal," Matthew comforted her tenderly.
"But Matthew, they forced you to bear the cost. W-Why didn't you say anything? Why didn't you object?" Sasha asked him tearfully. "Do you know that I can't stand to see you mistreated this way?"
"Sasha, can't you see it? As long as you treat me well, no matter what they say, I won't feel mistreated," said Matthew with a smile on his face.
"Fool!" Tears falling down her face, Sasha embraced him hard. "You really are a fool! Why do you treat me so well?"
"You are my wife. Who else would I be good to?"
Matthew replied as he gently patted her on the back.
Moved by his words, Sasha continued weeping as she held on to him. It was some time before she finally let go. "There, there, don't cry. It's alright.” Matthew gently wiped away her tears. Smiling, he asked, "Are you hungry? Shall I buy you dinner?"
She held onto his arms tightly, cheeks flushed red. "Alright, let's have a romantic candlelight dinner then, shall we?"
"No problem. Your wish is my command!"
Matthew and Sasha browsed the restaurants until they finally found a rather upscale one to dine at. The waiter led them to a quiet booth, where the two of them ordered their meals and a bottle of red wine.
As they walked into the restaurant, a man over at the bar caught a glimpse of them; his expression changing. This man was one of the thugs-for-hire who followed Young Master Jackson at the Shanghai Nights restaurant. He recognized Matthew immediately, and ran to the back to call Young Master Jackson. It wasn't long before Young Master Jackson stormed in and bellowed, "Damn it, where is he?"
"Over there!" The man pointed in Matthew's direction.
