Just then, the bodyguard assigned to protect Stella hurried over, panting.
“Mr. Clark.” He greeted Matthew respectfully.
Matthew nodded, signaling for him to continue.
The bodyguard methodically detailed the situation.
“Both you and Stella were targeted by the assailants. They perhaps didn’t anticipate you separating briefly. You happened to be walking on the road, making you the initial target.”
Matthew paused briefly before asking, “Did you apprehend the person responsible?”

“He’s been captured and is under interrogation, but he’s refusing to speak,” the bodyguard reported.
Matthew remained silent, visualizing a gruesome scenario in his mind, his heartbeat accelerating.
He issued a stern command.
“Don’t let that man die before he confesses.”

Regardless, he knew he needed to proactively invest in the Fairwa project.
Only by successfully managing Prosperity Group could he adequately safeguard Stella.
Neville gestured for the bodyguard to leave.
After his departure, Neville shared in a grave tone, “It appears that keeping your relationship with Stella a secret is crucial for her well-being.”
Matthew shot him a cold glance, “I’m aware.”
Despite saying this, he felt a tinge of regret.
When Kaia found out about Matthew’s near-miss, she hastily scheduled a meeting with Charlene once the birthday party ended.
As soon as she saw Charlene, she blurted out, “Why did you act so rashly? Do you realize how frightened I was?”
Charlene observed her for a moment before chuckling.
“Don’t worry. I have no intention of harming him.”
“You haven’t harmed him yet? Matthew was nearly killed!” Kaia yelled.
Charlene smirked dismissively.
