Chapter 140
Matthew was a little speechless from being yelled at by his childhood friend.
Charlie was a great friend, except for that temper of his.
Moreover, he always had a temper if he had just woken up. He picked up the call because it was Matthew calling. Otherwise, he would never pick up no matter how long the phone rang. He would also make sure to get revenge on whoever called him for disturbing his sleep.
Matthew shook his head with a laugh and continued, "Wake up, CJ. This isn't a small case. This is the biggest case of all."
Charlie sneered at being just woken up. He put on his clothes and yelled angrily into the phone.
"What sort of big case is this? Do you have any idea what sort of cases I take on? They involve serial killers and high-intellect criminals!
"Is this all you have to give me? You don't need to pull out the big guns over something so minor."
Matthew held back his temper. If it was not for his wife needing a lawyer for a case, he would never have called Charlie! Poor Charlie had to be woken by Matthew over this when he only had three hours of sleep.
How could Charlie not blow his top? Anyone else would have yelled at Matthew too.
"Aren't we buddies? Just answer this question."
Charlie rolled his eyes at the other end of the phone. He finally calmed down slightly.
He began to get curious about the person Matthew wanted him to help the case with.
"We're buddies, but these are two different issues. Tell me who you want me to help with the case. Tell me or I might just beat you up."
Matthew smiled when he heard Charlie relenting slightly. "It's my adorable, lively, gorgeous, and delightful wife."
Charlie spat out the water he was drinking. He was in disbelief. He shouted at Matthew over the phone, "What did you just say?! You've finally found yourself a wife? You don't need to lie about something like that. You have time to find me a better reason to take up this case."
Matthew's lips twitched. He looked exasperated. "What are you implying? It's the fault of those other women who can't get me interested enough.
"It wasn't easy for me to finally find the love of my life. How could you say that about me?"Belongs to NôvelDrama.Org - All rights reserved.
Charlie was initially annoyed but
now, he was interested. He wante to know what kind of woman was able to get Matthew's attention.
It was such a rare occurrence that Charlie was determined to meet this woman.
"Alright, fine: I'll check out that
woman for you. Let's see what kind of person your wife is. By the way, she wouldn't be after your money, would she?"
This thought suddenly crossed Charlie's mind.
"To hell with you. My wife had no idea of my real identity when we got married. How could she be after my money?"
This amused Charlie. His buddy had now become a slave for his wife.
"Fine. Give me 20 minutes. I'll come over right now."
20 minutes was too long. Matthew was not happy with that. "Can't you be any faster?"
Charlie rolled his eyes. He ignored this buddy of his and hung up.
That was a little too much of him.
was in J City, and he
prepared to use a private jet
over. What else did Matet et
want?
When he did not hear a reply from the other end, Matthew checked his phone.
Charlie rushed over as fast as he could and he managed to arrive at Matthew's villa in 15 minutes.
"Where's your wife?"
Matthew rolled his eyes. "Don't you know that my wife has to work?"
He turned to the garage to get a car. He planned to take Charlie to see Lucy.
