The Doormat Wife’s Ultimate Glow-Up novel Chapter 304

“I trust him. He’d never do anything shady with data—honestly, he wouldn’t even glance at something that wasn’t his.”

Reese nodded, eyes on the alert that just popped up on her phone. “I believe you.”

She pulled up her medical report and handed her phone to Matthew. “Someone tampered with my results. It says I have high-risk HPV and genital warts. Apparently, I’m ‘unfit for pregnancy.’”

“This is definitely a setup. I think the Barnard family is behind it,” she said, making sure Matthew caught the reference. “That’s my lovely aunt’s side, by the way.”

“That’s exactly why I’m here,” Matthew replied. He didn’t even bother looking at the phone—he’d seen the report as soon as he heard Bruce was in trouble. None of this surprised him. After everything that had gone down, it was clear someone was working against them.

“The guy who reported Bruce is Jon. He’s deputy director at the fertility clinic,” Matthew explained. “He’s not military, just been stuck in the same position for years with no way up.

“The Barnards must’ve promised him something if he got Bruce out of the picture.

“Once Bruce was taken away, Jon swooped in and took over your and Sebastian’s IVF case. Your medical report? That was all him.”

Reese nodded, connecting the dots. “Makes sense now.” Tara and Rosie were desperate after Dylon got arrested. They wanted to mess up her relationship with Sebastian by faking her medical report, hoping the Ratcliff family would lay off Dylon. At the same time, they needed Bruce out so Jon could take over the IVF process. Two birds, one stone.

“Leslie hasn’t made a move yet, so we need to keep up appearances. The IVF act has to go on.” Reese handed Matthew a glass of water. “But Jon is working for Rosie. We can’t let him run the show. We have to get Bruce out first.”

Matthew finished the water in one gulp. He’d rushed over, worried Reese would spiral after seeing the report, and now his throat was dry.

Sebastian stood in the doorway, cold fury radiating off him. His stare could cut glass as he looked from Reese to Matthew, both stepping out of the same apartment.

After their phone call, he couldn’t shake the feeling something was off. Reese had never cared about the Meyer family’s shares before—why now? He came over for answers. What he didn’t expect was to see her with Matthew, alone.

A man and a woman, behind closed doors. Add in that medical report, and anger shot through Sebastian so fast he could barely think straight.

“Not going to invite me in?” His voice was icy, his eyes flicking between Reese and Matthew, lips curling into a mocking smirk. “Or am I interrupting something?”

“Sebastian, don’t be ridiculous,” Matthew said, stepping slightly in front of Reese. “We were just talking business.”
