Chapter 64
Tessa’s expression instantly changed.
No wonder Matthew had been cold to her when she helped pick up Lorraine that morning. It turned out he was already involved with Rachel.
Seeing Matthew with two beautiful women made her feel discomfort in her heart.
Elliott noticed Tessa was looking at the entrance, so he turned to look as well.
He recognised Matthew. The latter had been a regular client of the bank’s, but he had had fallen out was imprisoned. Since then, Elliott had been dealing with Tessa instead.

Knowing that Matthew had left his past behind, Elliott hadn’t thought much of it until he noticed the two women with
him.
When he recognised Rachel, his eyes lit up.
Rachel was the president of Wealthwave Group, a woman he had tried to meet through various connections without
success. T
Yet here she was, and that too, with Matthew.
Elliott stood up and walked toward Matthew. He greeted, “Mr. Grant, it’s been a while. I didn’t expect to meet you here.
Seeing the people that he knew, he smiled as he shook hands. He said, “Mr. Robins, it’s been a long time. What brings you here
Elliott hesitated for a moment before saying, “Ms. Sanders invited me out. Back when you were the boss, I always sought you out for deposits. Now with a new boss, the loans have piled up, and it’s a bit too much.”
It was then that Matthew noticed that Tessa was also at the restaurant. However, her issues were no longer his concern. He stated, “Let’s not dwell on the past.”
Elliott nodded with a smile. Then, he changed the subject, “Could you introduce me to your friends?”
Rachel proactively extended her hand and greeted, “Hello, I’m Rachel Carter. Nice to meet you.”
Since she saw that it was someone Matthew knew, she had to be polite. Otherwise, with her personality, it was impossible for her to be polite with a strange man.
Elliott was overwhelmed with excitement as he shook Rachel’s hand. He said, “Oh, Ms. Carter! Your reputation precedes you. If there’s anything our bank can assist you with, please don’t hesitate to ask”
Tracy was uninterested, so she looked away. She wasn’t keen on meeting Matthew’s acquaintances.
After a few more pleasantries, Matthew excused himself. “We need to eat first. We can chat more
With that, the three of them went to find a table.
later.”
Watching Matthew leave, Elliott felt a bit reluctant. He wanted to chat more and build a deeper connection, but there wasn’t enough time.
With a sense of regret, he returned to his seal.
With mixed emotions, Tessa watched Matthew leave. She used to think Matthew would have trouble finding a wife. Unexpectedly, he had two stunning beauties dining with him today.
She felt a bit jealous and want Rachel

Seeing Elliott return, she collected herself and brought up the loan issue again. She said, “Mr. Robins, please help me.
Can you reduce the interest by 20%?”
Elliott was somewhat tempted. After pondering for a moment, he proposed, “If Matthew returns as the boss, I’ll give you the loan.”
“What?”
Tessa’s expression changed slightly. She asked, “Do you think I’m not as good as Matthew?”
Elliott wore a regretful expression and replied, “Yes, I indeed have no confidence in you.”
Tessa was still somewhat indignant. She said, “Since I took over the company, its scale has expanded tenfold. How am 1 not as good as him?”
Elliott responded, “Alright, I’ll be honest, When Matthew was the boss, the company’s scale wasn’t as large as it is now, but it was very profitable, and I used to ask him to deposit money. Belongs to NôvelDrama.Org - All rights reserved.
“Since you became the boss, the company has grown, but you’re always asking me for loans. How can you compare to him?”
Tessa was so shocked that she froze in place. She had always believed her abilities were ten times better than Matthew’s.
She hadn’t expected that, in others‘ eyes, she wasn’t even qualified to be compared with him.
For a moment, she couldn’t accept it.
Elliott stood up and said, “I only came to see you out of respect for Matthew. I’ve pointed out the way, so whether you take it is up to you.”
