Sorry for Your Loss, It's Me, I'm the Loss novel Chapter 150

Sandra drove them from the military base into the city. By the time they arrived, it was lunchtime.

She had chosen a high-end restaurant. “I know you like this kind of food, so I had my assistant book a table. My treat today.”

“Thanks, Sandra,” Yvonne smiled. Beside her, Bullet sat up, raising his front paws as if to thank her as well.

“What a good boy,” Sandra said, reaching over to pet his head. This time, Bullet didn’t pull away. It seems a free meal can soften even the hardest of hearts.

Their table was on the second floor. As the hostess led them upstairs, they passed a private room where Matthew was entertaining guests.

The door was ajar, and Matthew was holding a glass, toasting a middle-aged man.

“Mr. Lee, I’ll drink this whole glass. You can drink as you please,” the once-arrogant Mr. Gonzalez said, his posture now incredibly deferential.

“Just one glass? Are you looking down on me, Mr. Gonzalez?” Mr. Lee replied with a smirk, clearly enjoying making Matthew squirm.

Matthew downed three full glasses of hard liquor in a row, his face turning pale. Still, he forced a smile. “Mr. Lee, I promise to drink with you to your heart’s content tonight. Please, just consider investing in my company. You know it once generated billions in profit. It’s one of the most promising companies in the industry.”

“Matthew, it’s not that I don’t want to help you. But the Thompson Group has gutted your company of its core technology. If I invest, I won’t be able to answer to my shareholders,” Mr. Lee said, feigning difficulty.

Matthew refilled his glass, his expression fawning, almost groveling.

So, he did know how to bow his head and beg after all.

Yvonne remembered when the Gonzalez family first went bankrupt. Matthew had clung to his pride, refusing to lower himself. The original Yvonne had run herself ragged trying to secure investments for him, enduring endless drinking parties and unwanted advances.

But Matthew had shown no gratitude. He had even called her spineless, born to be stepped on.
