Book:Billionaire's Sweet Wife Published:2024-5-1

The viewpoint of Irene Nadine
On the other side, I was in a standoff with Philip Matthews, and I refused to eat whatever he said since it would be a sign of weakness.
“Do you find it difficult to eat?”
I just stared at him, regretfully, without any extraneous expressions or words.
The housekeeper stepped in through the door just as Philip Matthews was ready to stand up and remarked respectfully, “Master … Mr. Campbell wishes to meet with you.”
“Oh, so quickly.” He scowled, then returned to his seat and sat down. “Please let him in.”
I can’t believe Ryan Campbell discovered this location.
Even if I had considered it, I never imagined it would be so quick.
However, Ryan Campbell came in the next second, striding through other people’s homes as if they were his own, and remarked coldly, “Are you going to stay if you don’t move? Is the cuisine superior in this house?”
I replied by standing up right away. Philip Matthews said with a smile, “Mr. Campbell, take your time. This dinner is finished. It is preferable to eat it together before leaving.”
“You took my wife away without saying hello, didn’t you go too far?” hissed Ryan Campbell.
“Mr. Campbell, can you discover it if I truly want to hide? It’s as simple as meeting on the street and eating dinner together.”
“My wife enjoys eating what I make herself, so I won’t bother you the next time.” He finished, turned to face me, gazed at me, and exclaimed, “Go!”
Philip Matthews glanced at the excellent lunch with a hint of loneliness in his eyes as they left without stopping.
Ryan Campbell shoved me in the car, started it, and demanded, “How did you get here?”
I muttered, “I’m not sure. His maid drove the taxi I took, and it transported me exactly here.”
“I didn’t ask you to take my license plate?” He probably wouldn’t have guessed she was at Philip Matthews’ house if it hadn’t been for the location of her phone.
“I had no idea this would happen.”
Ryan Campbell sighed, assuming she, too, was terrified. “Didn’t you do anything to me?”
“No,” I said, shaking my head.
Ryan Campbell calmed down and asked her, “Where have you been today?” as quietly as he could.
I buried my face in my food, but replied stuffily, “Go for a walk.”
“Are you bored at home?”
“… hmm,” I didn’t lie either.
When she is dissatisfied, she will show it on her face, and no one needs to guess what she is thinking.
Ryan Campbell was deafeningly quiet, and he couldn’t be with her every day. The company was extremely busy.
“I have a party this weekend. Come along with me.”
“I don’t want to go.” I don’t know anyone there, so it’s better for me to watch TV at home alone.
“I’d want to introduce you to a piano master.”
I was intrigued when I heard this. “Who is it?” I questioned, looking up at him.
“You’ll know when you go.”
I followed him to the feast in order to meet the mysterious master.
This type of meeting of upper-class people is essential for comparing and boasting about their wealth.
I didn’t expect to run across Philip Matthews and Kathy Clark at the celebration. The rumor is that they will also attend the party arm in arm.
Philip Matthews’ gaze has been drawn to her since the moment she first noticed her. Instead, she avoided his line of sight in terror and pretended not to notice, prompting Philip Matthews to contemplate and smile.
“Do you like her?” Kathy Clark inquired, looking up at him.
“Mind your own business,” he said lukewarmly.
“I might be able to help you,” Kathy Clark joked.
He remarked playfully, “How? Allow her to come into my room tonight?”
“Not right now, and not necessarily in the future. You can either wait for Mr. Campbell to divorce her .”
” They were going to divorce?”
Kathy Clark smiled confidently and stated, “Do you believe they are devoted? It’s not as simple as that between them.”
All she knows is that Irene Nadine is unconcerned when she pays many visits to Ryan Campbell.
Irene Nadine will be jealous if a woman visits Ryan Campbell, but she is gracious enough to walk away and leave them alone.
She is adamant that no woman can do this, and that no matter how giving she is, she cannot leave her husband alone with other women unless Irene Nadine does not love him.
Or Ryan Campbell claimed to be in love with Irene Nadine in order to get rid of her. In truth, they had recently married with pregnancy, and their relations are not very good. Ryan Campbell claimed to love Irene Nadine again, but all he wanted was for her to give up.
Irene Nadine will have to depart if he wants to open up one day and makes a good impact on her.
Kathy Clark let go of Philip Matthews’ hand and approached Ryan Campbell to say hello “Why are you here, Mr. Campbell? You said you weren’t free before, didn’t you?”
“Something occurred.” Ryan Campbell only gave a cursory response.
In fact, he doesn’t have to attend such a celebration in person, thus giving it to Jeffrey Scott is alright. Noticing Irene Nadine gets bored at home, he will take her for a stroll, and he plans to take Irene Nadine on work trips in the future. First, he feels safe, and second, he can have fun with Irene Nadine.
Kathy Clark, who was standing next to him, exclaimed, “My sister looks stunning in this costume. Is this a new limited edition style in France?”
I was taken aback. I had no idea this outfit was a luxury limited edition. I wore it because Ryan Campbell made it for me. After all, I didn’t want to make him look bad.
Ryan Campbell only looked down at my outfit and didn’t say anything to Kathy Clark. He took my hand in his and moved away, simply saying, “Let’s go first.”
Kathy Clark stood there, her eyes filled with hatred and jealousy as she watched the two guys walk away.
Irene Nadine is a great match for him. Whether Ryan Campbell has feelings for Irene Nadine or not, Kathy Clark looks stunning in this scene.
Philip Matthews follows Kathy Clark and sneers.
“When I become a superstar,” Kathy Clark remarked firmly, “he will come to me naturally.”
“Do you think men like you because of who you are?” chuckles Philip Matthews.
“Isn’t it?”
“If a man truly loves a woman, he won’t hate everything about her, especially if he’s as handsome as Ryan Campbell. Your efforts are being directed in the wrong direction. Ryan Campbell will not look you in the eyes if he does not like you, even if you are an international front liner.”
On the contrary, Irene Nadine is not a good woman, but he believes that her simplicity can bring others unfathomable enjoyment and contentment.
The meeting place is a suburban, not a bustling city. The air quality is excellent. Despite the fact that I have yet to see the piano master, it is a pleasure to sit here.
Ryan Campbell sat next to me and talked with others while I played games on my phone.
“Is it freezing outside? Do you want to sit inside?”
I didn’t raise my head, but I kept staring at the screen of my phone and refusing to say, “Don’t.”
The house is overcrowded, which is both noisy and uninteresting.
Ryan Campbell, on the other hand, did not insist on me. He simply removed his coat and placed it on me. “I’m not cold,” I said, shrugging my shoulders.
“Put it on!” he said, staring at me.
I couldn’t stop myself from playing the game. Ryan Campbell stared at it, reached out, and grabbed my phone, saying, “First, put on your clothes.”
“I’m going to die!” I exclaimed hastily.
“Put that on first!” he says, not being courteous at all.
I glared at him fiercely, reluctantly put his coat on, and promptly took back his phone. Then, as I was still playing the game, I heard him whisper in his ear, “Don’t play with your mobile phone.”
“Didn’t you say it didn’t have any radiation here?”
“That’s also bad for your eyes.”
I bowed my head, and continued to play.
In fact, the temperature is low in the mountains, and I feel a little cold, but I feel much warmer when with his clothes.
Kathy Clark and Philip Matthews appeared just as I lowered my head to begin the game. Ryan Campbell was not well received by these two individuals. Kathy Clark gave a small smile and continued, “What are you up to? So focused.”
I just looked up when I realized they were approaching, and then Ryan Campbell answered for me, “Children’s play, what can I do for you?”
When I heard him respond for me, I returned my focus to the game, and I didn’t want to chat to these two people.
Kathy Clark stared at Irene Nadine’s attire, but soon sorted through her feelings and smiled, saying, “Nothing, just wanted to come and visit.”
Ryan Campbell didn’t respond, and he felt uneasy as he watched Philip Matthews openly stare at Irene Nadine.
“If that’s all right, I’ll take Irene out to dine. You take your time” He said this while taking me away, and I was still addicted to the game.
“Take care!”
He reached out his hand and pulled me over after seeing that I was about to be hit by someone. I just looked up and looked down at my phone.
Kathy Clark had not gone very far. “Mr. Campbell, we’re hungry as well. Let us all dine together.”
Ryan Campbell simply ignored her and went in front of Irene Nadine.
“You’re so annoying,” Philip Matthews teased Kathy Clark.
Kathy Clark gritted her teeth in frustration. Bothersome?
If she doesn’t take the initiative to find him, the connection between her and Ryan Campbell will be severed.
“I’ll let you know that he cares about me.” Kathy Clark spoke forcefully, as if to both Philip Matthews and herself.
Ryan Campbell stood there watching her finish the game, confiscated her phone, and led her to the food section to select food.
There was an unexpected murmur in the otherwise peaceful atmosphere, and the sound of glass breaking on the ground drew the attention of everyone in the hall, including Ryan Campbell and me.
We turned around to see Kathy Clark seated beside the champagne tower, and the glass smashed her foot. We can tell from the volume of blood that the cut is not shallow.
Ryan Campbell knotted his brows slightly as he watched Kathy Clark sob. He expected Philip Matthews to step forward to assist, but instead he stood in the crowd with a red wine glass, watching his female companion’s mishap as a bystander.
He grabbed Kathy Clark and headed toward the lounge.
I took a snack plate and stood there watching him go with Kathy Clark in his arms. My heart appeared to have two hands pulling on it. I didn’t know what that was like, but I felt uneasy in my chest.
“It appears that Ryan Campbell is not particularly loyal to you.” Philip Matthews emerged behind me.
