My Belittled Husband Is A Billionaire

Themis’ POV

Winter and her assistant have been following me since I left this morning. I don’t know what their reasons are, but she’s probably trying to know something about me. One of these days, I’ll expect her to hire a personal investigator to watch over me every single day.

I need to give her assurance that I am not doing anything fishy. She needs to believe all the lies that I told them.

“She followed you yesterday?”

“Yes, I think she still has doubts about me. One of these days, for sure, she’ll hire someone to watch my every move.”

Mr. Wesley nodded his head as he spoke. ” I see. Winter is really a smart kid ever since. She always has doubts about the surrounding people. I can’t blame her, though. But don’t worry, Matthew. I will help you with that. You also have to be careful from now on. Maybe she could even put a listening device to one of your things, so you need to be extra careful.”

“I understand, Mr. Wesley.”

“By the way, I’ve heard that ever since you came, our sales became higher even more. You really are just like your father. You are so good at handling a company.”

I smiled. “Our father and grandpa taught us so much about handling a company since we were kids, so I already have some ideas on how to make a successful one.”

“The wit and skills of your family are really plausible. That is why I really respect your grandfather.”

“Thank you for the compliments, Mr. Wesley. By the way, I think I have to go now. I still have a meeting with the CEO of Wilson holdings.” I said as I stood up.

Mr. Wesley also stood up. “I hope there will be a time when you can call me grandpa, too. I don’t mind hearing that from you.”

I just smiled at him, then bowed down before leaving his office.All text © NôvelD(r)a'ma.Org.

“What did you discuss with my grandpa?”

I got surprised when I suddenly saw Winter outside her grandpa’s office. She was standing there with her arms folded.

“W-Winter, what are you doing here?”

“It’s none of your business. This is our family’s company, so I can go here whenever I want. What did you tell him?”

“We just discussed our current partnership with Wilson Holdings.”

Her brows furrowed. “For sure, you also told him about the way I treat you at home, right? You told him that you couldn’t ask our maids and butlers to serve you, too?”

“No, I didn’t. And don’t worry, I won’t tell him anything about that.”

“I don’t care if you tell him about that. Tell him everything you want. I don’t even care.”

I nodded my head and smiled. ” I see. So, I guess I’ll just see you later?”

“Whatever. Stupid.” she rolled her eyes and went inside her grandpa’s office while I proceeded to my office.

Winter’s POV

So stupid.

I could vomit just looking at his smiling face.

“Oh, if it isn’t my favorite grandchild. Hello there, Winter.”

I sat down on the couch and looked at my grandpa. “I need to tell you something, grandpa.”

“What is it? Is it about your husband, Matthew? For sure he told you so many lies about me again.”

“How did you know? Did he tell you anything about me?”

“Of course, not. We only discussed our new partnership with Wilson Holdings. He mentioned nothing personal. Why? Is there something he has to say to me about you? Did you do something that would make your parents mad at you again?”

“They are mad at me ever since I was born, so what else can I do that wouldn’t make them mad at me?”

Grandpa shook his head. “Oh, don’t say that, Winter. They care about you.”

“Let’s not talk about something that is impossible to happen, grandpa. I want to talk about Matthew.”

“About your husband? What about him?”

“Grandpa, I think he is hiding something from us.”

“And how do you say so? Matthew is a good kid. I know his parents, especially his grandpa.”

“Well, that doesn’t mean he’s the same. I can feel that he’s hiding something from us. Why do you think is he so passive about all the things that we ask him to do? He doesn’t even complain.”

Grandpa suddenly laughed.

Of course, he wouldn’t believe me because he likes that stupid man so much.

“I understand your doubts, Winter. Actually, I have doubts about him too. I mean, how can he be so good at handling our company when he doesn’t even have any experience? Do you know how much stock we have now? It’s more than half of what we have for the past ten years.”

My eyes widened. “I knew it! You also have doubts about him, right?!”

“Right. So, what do you want to do? Do you want to hire a personal investigator to follow him around?”

“Exactly. That’s what I want to do. By that, we would be able to know his dark secrets. I’m telling you, grandpa. That man is hiding something from us.”

“I think you’re right. And we shouldn’t trust him so easily just because he’s the son of my best friend’s son. Don’t worry, I will hire a good investigator and we will find out everything about Matthew.”

I stood up and hugged him. “Thank you so much, grandpa!”

“How can I even refuse my grandchild?”
