"Rachel doesn't even have the capability to choose a man, let alone do a good job as the president of the Wealthwave Group! It's time to have a new president!"
Quinn didn't want to waste all his time on Matthew, so he shifted his target to Rachel. He exposed his real motive.
Everyone present understood what he meant and put down their cutlery.
Quinn's gaze shifted back and forth between Rachel and Matthew.
Martin slumped in the chair. He realized how serious the matter was. Aside from Matthew's identity being a problem, Rachel might lose her position as president too.
Martin didn't have a son. He only had a daughter. When Rachel had finally succeeded in life, he had felt relieved. He hadn't expected everything to be a joke.

That was how Matthew and Rachel had gotten together, but they were only at the stage of getting to know each other.
Now that his identity was exposed, if Rachel couldn't handle the pressure and refused to accept him, he would understand her, too.
If Rachel wasn't afraid of other people's opinions and accepted him, he would protect and cherish her forever.
Rachel got up and looked at everyone present. Then, she said calmly, "I have always been careful about my marriage. In fact, because I was too careful, I never had a boyfriend.
"Matthew was in prison before, but it was because he was too responsible. As for the divorce, I think that woman doesn't have good taste.
"Matthew is still my boyfriend. From what I know, he's a nice person. Aside from some habits…"
