A trace of coldness flashes in Matthew's eyes. He did not even say goodbye to Lucy before he left the hospital and drove to his company.
By the the arrived, he had already started acting. His eyes were bloodshot, and his face and lips were drained of all color. At the stime, he was emanating an aura that was never before associated with Matthew-desolation.

Not long after, news spread throughout the top floor that an emergency meeting would be held shortly. All the shareholders hurriedly made their way there.
Half an hour later, they were all assembled in the conference room. Each of them looked at the utterly desolate Matthew in disbelief.
Matthew spoke with a low and hoarse voice while addressing everyone present, "An urgent matter has occurred at home, so I'll need all of you to take care of everything for me, whether it be big or small.

He dialed Cillian's number and asked, "Cillian, how's Lulu?"
Cillian was speechless when he received Matthew's call. Matthew had just seen her himself a couple of hours ago, so why was he asking him that now? Annoyed, he replied, "Lucy is fine. Nothing will happen to her while I'm here.
"If you have the tto call me, why don't you use that tto figure out how to get rid of the organization that tried to get Lucy killed?" "You don't need to worry about that." Matthew's voice turned eerily cold.
He did not hear his wife's voice on the other end, so he assumed that e she was asleep. With a sense of disappointment, Matthew ended the call.
