Chapter 616
I felt relieved after hearing Matthew’s words. I smirked at him and leaned into my chair, saying disdainfully, “That was what I wanted to tell you. If you’re a real man, live up to your words. Again, go to the
you want Melanie back. Don’t shout at me in my office.”
“I dare you to keep up this act!” Matthew then left in resentment.
I watched his departing figure and snorted, muttering, “If you’re a man, stop stirring up trouble for no reason.”
Suddenly, I heard a commotion outside. I was surprised and quickly walked out, only to see Ivanna and Matthew quarreling.
It turned out Matthew happened to encounter Ivanna as he left. Ivanna had come to bring me something at that moment. The two met at the elevator and became hostile.
I walked over and pulled Ivanna away. She had walked right into Matthew’s trap. He was about to unleash all his suppressed anger on Ivanna.

However, Ivanna was not one to back down. She pointed at Matthew and scolded, “Who the hell do you think you are to come here, you bastard?! Do you remember how Chloe’s head got injured? How dare you lay a finger on her again? Didn’t you listen to what I said?!”
“Shut the fuck up!” Matthew cursed.
Ivanna suddenly lunged at him, but I grabbed her, saying, “There’s no point arguing with an animal, Ivanna. Let’s go outside.”
Ivanna turned back and scolded Matthew, “That bitch will ruin you sooner or later. Even your mom fell victim to Melanie, yet you dare to come here and act recklessly. Don’t let me see you weeping in remorse when that time comes, Matthew!”
Anger flashed in Matthew’s eyes as he retorted, “Enough bullshit, Ivanna! You’re also the reason my mom’s dead!”
I knew his emotions ran high at that
moment, and such words were more
painful than torment. Matthew
thought sheld no respect for Grace. However, Melanie’s frequent violence was evident. Still, he was unwilling to believe his wife was the one who drove Grace out,
Before, Matthew was dutiful, especially to his mom. He respected and cared for her dearly.
Ivanna persistently confronted him, “Go ahead and continue doting on that bitch! I’m warning you again to stop all this. You’ll regret it sooner or later.”
Matthew had lost all dignity and composure as he glared at us. “That’s my family affair, and you have no right to meddle! Things wouldn’t have ended up like this without your interference.”
“Family? Hah! This office was your home and your family, yet you destroyed it yourself. Do you think you have a home with that wretched bitch? That’s a cesspool at best!”
“I dare you to repeat that!” Matthew rushed toward Ivanna with bloodshot eyes.
I quickly pulled her behind me and

Matthew would resort to violence again. I kept my distance and said
coldly “Go to the station if you want your wife back. Stop wasting your time here and get lost!”
Matthew paled again. “I’ll no longer consider our relationship with everything I do.”
I smiled and nodded. “Sure, I’ll remember that. Show no mercy, Matthew!”
