The man was stunned. What did he say?

He suddenly realized what Matthew was saying. He looked at Abbott, “I told Mr. Nelson that your girlfriend is pretty.”

Abbott froze. His knees went weak. Then Abbott widened his eyes and glared at the man, “Damn, are you blind? I don’t have a girlfriend.”

Dolores stood beside Matthew, and she could see Matthew’s blue veins bulging out on his temples. Dolores silently leaned against Matthew.

But Dolores was complaining in her heart. That man didn’t know about them, and that was why he misunderstood.

Why the fuss?

The man was confused. What was going on in here?

He looked at Abbott, then he looked at Dolores.

Did he say the wrong thing?

The man was sweating, “I…”

Dolores knew Matthew was bad-tempered. She didn’t want to disturb Matthew when he was working, which was why she didn’t head into the office right away, and that caused a misunderstanding. Dolores didn’t want Matthew to throw tantrums at someone else.

Dolores looked at the man, “I was actually looking for Mr. Nelson. You should leave now.”

The man didn’t dare to make any move. He looked at Matthew like he was waiting for his order.

Matthew scolded the man, “Didn’t you hear what she said?”

The man was stunned. He gazed at Matthew slack-jawed. Did he find out something he shouldn’t?

This woman…

“Why are you still here?” Abbott glared at the man.

The man rushed to the exit and accidentally hit the door. A bump appeared on his forehead right away. Abbott made fun of him, “It seemed like you are poor-sighted. You should go to the hospital for check-ups.”

“Yes, yes, I should,” the man ran out of the office covering his forehead.

Abbott laughed fondly, “He wasn’t seeing things right. He made a mistake.”

However, Matthew didn’t buy Abbott’s story. He continued glancing at Abbott.

Abbott was terrified. He looked at Dolores and asked for help.

It wasn’t his fault. Don’t let Matthew torture him.

When Dolores wanted to say something, Matthew stopped her, “You want to put in words for him?”
