The Doormat Wife’s Ultimate Glow-Up novel Chapter 335

“Don’t think you’re untouchable just because Matthew’s on your side. You really think you can just barge in, mess with the Vista Tech and BlackOak deal, and threaten Dad over his shares?

“And what have you ever done for this family, huh? Why do you think you get to just show up and take what you want?”

“Take what I want?” Reese let out a low, cold laugh. “Hank, do you really think the Meyer family would be where it is today if it weren’t for my mom?”

“Those shares? They’re mine. She left them for me. Why shouldn’t I have them?

“And look at you. You’re enjoying everything she built, calling someone else ‘Mom’ like it’s nothing. All these years, you never once tried to find out what really happened in that car accident. You just blamed me for everything.

“You really think that’s what Mom would have wanted? That it makes you feel any better?”

“Say that again, I dare you!” Hank snapped. He was so furious he lunged at her, hand raised to shove her away.

But before he could even touch her, someone grabbed his wrist in a vice-like grip.

Matthew’s gaze flickered to Reese’s reddened wrist, his eyes turning stormy. His grip tightened. Hank’s face twisted in pain, sweat instantly popping out on his forehead.

“Mr. Meyer,” Matthew’s voice was icy and sharp, every word laced with anger. “Reese is your sister. You really think it’s okay to lay a hand on her?”

“Matthew, this isn’t your business,” Hank ground out, trying to ignore the pain. “She’s my sister. It’s my right to discipline her.”

Matthew’s eyes narrowed. His grip tightened even more. “Apologize.”

Hank bit back a groan, his pride warring with the pain that shot up his arm, but he still wouldn’t budge.

“Not good enough,” Matthew said, his grip tightening.

“Ah! I’m sorry, Reese! I’m sorry, okay? I shouldn’t have acted like that. Can you forgive me?”

Only then did Matthew finally let go.

Reese didn’t even acknowledge Hank. She just turned to Matthew. “So, how did your talk go?”

Matthew didn’t answer right away. Ever since Hank had dragged Reese out of the meeting, Matthew had been right behind. He just shot Bailey a look.

Bailey got the message loud and clear—and for a second, he was actually shocked at how much Matthew clearly cared about Reese.
