Just as she was about to summon a taxi, she spotted Matthew’s car pulling up.

He alighted briskly and made a beeline to her.

Stella pushed through the ache in her temples and approached Matthew with a smile.

The moment she moved, Matthew rusheds toward her, enfolding her in his arms.

Catching a potent whiff of alcohol, he frowned.

“Weren’t you discussing the design draft? Why did you drink so much?”

His voice carried a mix of concern and irritation.

Stella looked up and blinked lazily.

“We’ve secured preliminary cooperation.

That’s why I drank,” she said, her words tinged with the scent of liquor.

Matthew tightened his grip around her waist.

“Let’s get you in the car first.

He guided her gently to the passenger seat, then retrieved a bottle of water from the back.

“Here, take a sip to hydrate,” he instructed, bringing the bottle to her lips.

Matthew skimmed the notes, his frown deepening into a scowl, concern etched on his face.

Sensing his reaction, Stella grew anxious.

“Is there something wrong?

Is there any problem?”

Did she jot down something incorrectly?
