Trapped In A Marriage I Never Wanted
Chapter 66: Before Dinner Party

Chapter 66: Chapter 66: Before Dinner Party

Several days have passed, Matthias wants to try his best to save the fate of Star Wisdom Studio which is already on the brink of crisis due to the hoax news that has spread on the internet. Although Darrel has helped him release an article clarifying his true statement, the clients still don’t care about it. Now Matthias wants to use all means to make all of Victoria’s clients trust her again. He deliberately did not tell them the purpose of this dinner party to persuade them all to work with Star Wisdom Studio again. Because if he reveals his cards sooner, then his plan will fail.

All the preparations were now almost complete. All that was left was for him to take his wife shopping for a dress at his favorite boutique since long ago. Because for him, if his wife’s appearance was not attractive in the eyes of the clients, then the clients would still not trust her.

"Matthias, I still have a lot of dresses at home. We should go home now."

Matthias still smiled arrogantly as he swung his wife’s hand. "I don’t care. Tomorrow you are the main star at the dinner party, I don’t want your appearance to be less brilliant than other women."

Victoria’s footsteps stopped for a moment. "Wait a minute! You invited another woman too?"

"It was more likely my mother who invited the women to matchmake me."

"Then, what about Amber? Is she also coming to the party tomorrow?"

Matthias nodded weakly. "I can’t do anything. It’s impossible for me to refuse my mother’s wishes. If I were to say it out loud, our relationship would be even more disapproved of." His right hand gripped his wife’s hand tightly. "Are you angry?"

"No. I have no right to be angry. Because your mother has held a grudge against me for a long time. If I make the slightest mistake, your mother will be even less forgiving of me."

"Besides, tomorrow I can’t openly introduce you as my business partner to my mother."

"Then why did you ask me to go shopping for a dress tomorrow?"

"Because I want to find a dress that really suits you. It can’t be too flashy and it can’t be too plain either."

"How do I find a dress like that?"

Suddenly there was a black dress sprinkled with beads and decorated with a ribbon on the right waist that caught Matthias’ attention while he was talking to his wife. He immediately took the dress while imagining his wife wearing this dress tomorrow night.

"This is a dress that will suit you very well tomorrow."

Victoria’s eyes sparkled as she stared at her husband’s choice of dress. "Actually, I’m still curious about you. You’re good at choosing dresses, who taught you? Was it Amber who taught you?"

Matthias lifted his wife’s chin with an intense gaze. "I am good at choosing dresses only for my own wife. I never buy dresses for other women."

"Can I try it now?"

"You have to wear it tomorrow. I want it to be a surprise for me."

Victoria frowned. "What if this dress doesn’t fit me?"

"Don’t worry, I’ve known your body size for a long time."

Not only choosing a dress for tomorrow. Matthias also helped choose the right shoes for his wife so she could walk comfortably. He chose a pair of black heels that were not too high and fit his wife perfectly when she tried them on now.

Victoria blinked nervously at her husband who looked like a prince in her eyes. The longer she had trouble hating her own husband who was too sweet in her eyes. Should she accept this unwanted marriage into the marriage she really wanted?

"Victoria, what’s wrong with you?" Matthias waved his hand to bring his wife out of her reverie.

Victoria immediately rolled her eyes as she pushed a strand of hair behind her ear. "What’s wrong with me?"

"You seem to be daydreaming right now. Do you like the shoes I chose?"

"I really like everything. Tomorrow I will definitely appear confident. But, on the one hand, I have to hide from your mother."

"By the way, you have never seen my mother’s face before. Should I show you her picture first?"

"No need. Actually, I already know your mother’s face even though I’ve never met her. Because my stepmother once showed it to me."

"There will be a dance party tomorrow too. I want to dance with you."

"But how? Your mother will definitely be able to see me."

"I have my own way so that she doesn’t realize that the woman I’m dancing with is you."

*****

At the luxurious residence of Charles’ family, Lucretia was visited by Amber to discuss the matter of tomorrow’s party. Actually, Amber did not expect that she would be invited to tomorrow’s dinner party by Lucretia, not Matthias. This is the question, why didn’t Matthias invite her when tomorrow’s event was just a regular dinner party? However, now she wants to focus on using this golden opportunity to get closer to her best friend.

"Auntie, thank you for inviting me to the event tomorrow. Don’t worry, I won’t disappoint you tomorrow."

"I’m sorry I failed to educate my son. How could he forget to invite you. Even though you are the most important person in T&H Group."

"It’s okay. Maybe tomorrow Matthias intends to invite only certain people because tomorrow’s event seems very private."

"I don’t know what my son is planning, actually. What is certain is that you must use this opportunity to win my son’s heart."

Amber also planned to destroy the couple’s relationship in an instant. In her mind, she had already planned various evil actions for tomorrow so that Matthias would turn to her. However, her evil actions must not be revealed by her future in-laws.

"Auntie, actually I’m still not confident enough to attend tomorrow’s event. What if Matthias doesn’t want to accept me?"

"Why do you think like that?"

"Because it seems like Matthias holds a bit of a grudge against me because of the hoax news that was spread at that time. He even openly clarified that my relationship with him was just as friends."
