Chapter 536
Throughout the flight, she reveled in the immersive experience. Matthew remained not far
from her. A slight smile curved his thin lips, a lack of relief reflected in his dark eyes.
The weather was perfect that day, and Cynthia enjoyed a full two hours of flight. By the
end of it, all the burdens she had been carrying seemed to dissipate. She had come to a
complete understanding.
“No kidding. Where did you find her? She’s so attractive, and her flying skills are
impressive. Does she have a sister? Can you introduce me?” said the handsome young
coach, seizing the opportunity to gossip with Matthew after taking off his gear.
“Even if she had one, it’s none of your business,” Matthew replied slowly, his lips barely
moving.
The young coach draped an arm around Matthew’s shoulders. “Come on. Given our close
relationship, would you really leave me to lead a lanely life?”

“Her sister isn’t into older men.”
The coach stond stunned.
Old?
“You say that like you’re very young yourself,” he scoffed.
His comment gave Matthew pause, reminding him of Cynthia’s earlier remark about his
age.
At that moment, he found the coach to be particularly irritating.
“Compared to you, I am indeed young, Matthew retorted casually.
The corners of the young coach’s lips twitched.
Was a small age difference really a reason for such confidence?
Just as Cynthia approached, their conversation ended. Before she had a chance to speak,
Matthew interjected, “Let’s go. We’re heading back”
“You’re not going to catch up?” Cynthia observed that Matthew seemed rather close to
this young and attractive coach.
“Catch up on what? Matthew had no intention of lingering. He spoke with conviction, “I’ve
only known him a couple of days longer than you.”
Cynthia cast her gaze around the area.
Really?
It did not seem that way to her.
“Some of thern were asking in the group chat when we should meet. They were all
mentioning you.” As Matthew led her toward the car, le changed the subject.
Cynthia was taken aback.

“It’s fine. I’ll talk to thein once we get back.” She knew she had to be more open-minded
about things.
“Good” Matthew nodded.
And with that, they made their way back to the car, chatting intermittently.
The coach remained routed to the spot, gawlong at the audacious display of indifference
he had just witnessed. Hie whipped out his phone, dialing a number with determination.
He had decided he was going to give this heartless man a piece of his
mind.
He had generously offered them the use of his field and had thought they would at least
treat him to a nice meal. However, they had left without so much as a goodbye. Absolutely
unacceptable!
As Matthew started the car, preparing to leave, his pocket buzzed. He glanced at the
incoming call, eyes lazily skimming over the caller ID, and without any hesitation, he
rejected the call. Then he ruthlessly sent a message, Do us a favor and quit being a third
