Chapter 50 He is Shrewd There was an Italian restaurant across the street.

Two people were stepping out, the woman leaning on the man’s arm.

They probably just finished lunch, but it seemed like it took a while.

They stood in front of the restaurant.

After some exchange of words, the woman kissed the man on the cheek.

He ruffled her hair affectionately, giving her a tender smile.

After hailing a cab for her, he turned and hurried across the square.

They were none other than Matthew and Melanie.

“Don’t be.” I struggled to manage the awkwardness I felt.

I thought Matthew and Johnson had gone out to dine with clients, but I was wrong.

Only Johnson was doing that.

The atmosphere turned heavy.
