Chapter 256 Special Flirting Tips

"Does she really have a first love? Are they still in touch?"

Hearing the gossip, Sklyer stood up and walked over to Caleb's side, pushing Miguel aside. He then sat down, smiling. "Caleb, there must be a photo of Hendrey since you discovered him. Come on, let me see his face, please. I'm sure you have a picture of him since investigating is your specialty. I guess he must be quite handsome. He won't be able to defeat Matt otherwise... Hey! Why are you hitting me?" Caleb slapped him on the head before he could finish speaking, and then said to Matthew, "Drew has no manners. Don't mind him, Matt."

Skyler followed Caleb's gaze, and he happened to meet Matthew's cold gaze. All of a sudden, he felt a chill run down his back and immediately smiled flatteringly. "It's a joke, Matt. In my heart, you'll always be the male god, and you're not comparable to Hendrey, that guy. I was just curious to see how he looked."

As he said that, he had an epiphany and added, "If Hendrey is truly that attractive, bro, I will absolutely annihilate his face. Veronica will no longer adore him."

He obviously wanted to flatter Matthew, but everything he said seemed provocative.

When Miguel, who was sitting next to him, heard that, he twitched at the corner of his mouth and kicked Skyler's ass, saying, "Go down and buy a pack of cigarettes. I'm out of cigarettes."

"Yes, yes. I don't have any cigarettes either. You go buy them, and I'll show you the pictures once you do." Caleb concurred.

"All right, as you said. I'll leave right now."

Sklyer was obsessed with gossip and wanted to see the man Veronica adored, so he dashed out of the office.

On the other hand, Matthew appeared expressionless, calm, and serene, but his mood is rather complicated, and he is vaguely concerned.

Hendrey?

This damned woman even lied to him about the name of her first love!

Could it be that she really still loves him?

"Matt, you don't have to overthink it. Hendrey, according to my research, has been living abroad and has never contacted Veronica. He will most likely not return to the country. You don't have to be under any psychological duress."

Caleb comforted him.

"Caleb's statement is correct. Hendrey would have returned to the country a long time ago if he liked Veronica. So... nothing is going on between them."

Miguel solemnly waved his hand and pushed his glasses, which were on the bridge of his nose, as he expressed his dissatisfaction with Veronica and Hendrey.

Matthew took a sip of the coffee in front of him before putting it down slowly and saying, "The photo."

"Huh? The photograph... Oh right."

Caleb had no idea that Matthew was interested in seeing Hendrey's photos.

He clearly knew from his understanding of Matthew over many years that he truly fell in love with Veronica, and he also developed a strong hostility toward this man named Hendrey. That was due to the innate hostility between love rivals.

Caleb handed the phone to Matthew, who took it. The picture showed an elegant man in a suit and leather shoes, with a warm jade face and gold-rimmed glasses. He exuded the nobleness of a literati and scholar.

"Is this picture photoshopped?" Matthew asked a startling question.

For a moment, Caleb was stunned and subconsciously looked at Miguel beside him. When they looked at each other, there was a feeling that could not be described.

He knew Matthew had deep love for Veronica, but he didn't expect a man who was always arrogant and invincible to feel insecure when faced with a love rival.

"No. That's his bare face." Caleb responded.

At this point, Miguel couldn't help but wonder, "How handsome is he?"

He stood up and approached Matthew, peeking at Hendrey in the photograph and sighing, "How does he look so good? Is he a celebrity?"

"Meh... He's just an ordinary guy, but..."

At the mention of a celebrity, Caleb had a sudden thought. "Hendrey is indeed a well-known actor. He's now quite popular abroad."

While listening to the two's conversation, Matthew became contemplative.

He had been in the business industry for a long time and had never been afraid of anything. However, when it came to Veronica, he was repeatedly rejected, which frustrated his spirit.

Not long after he had fallen into deep thought, Skyler returned excitedly, with a pack of cigarettes and a book in his hands.

"Look at what I brought you, Matt."

He approached Matthew, shook the book in his hand, and exclaimed happily, "This is 'The Book of Flirting', and the bookstore owner said that it's the number one best-selling book for flirting. It has aided countless marriages, and I purchased it for you without hesitation."

He immediately threw the book on the table and raised his eyebrows playfully, as if to demonstrate his brotherly love for Matthew.

However, Matthew leaned on the couch with his legs crossed, his cold eyes slightly drooping, and looked at the book 'The Book of Flirting: How to Make Chicks Fall for Me'. His expression darkened instantly. "Troy!"

He let out a low yell.

"President Kings, is there anything you need?" Troy, who was standing outside the office door, asked as he entered.

Matthew sipped his coffee, pursed his lips, before raising his hand lazily to point at Sklyer. "Get rid of him!"

"Huh? Hello? What are you doing, Matt? This is not righteous." Sklyer was perplexed.

On the other hand, Troy immediately understood the situation when he saw the sexy and hot cover of the brainless book titled 'The Book of Flirting: How to Make Chicks Fall For Me' on the table. After Skyler finished speaking, Troy took a step forward and placed his arm around Skyler's neck. He then leaned over and placed his other arm around Skyler's legs before throwing him up on his shoulder and walking out of the room.

"Holy sh*t. Troy, put me down! I'm friends with Thomas, so how can you treat me in this way? Put me down! Do I not have shame?!"

Skyler fought hard but was eventually thrown out by Troy.

When Caleb and Miguel saw this scene, Calebu immediately stood up and said, "Matt, I have something to do in my office, so I'll be leaving first."

"It's just a coincidence that I have a lunch reservation at noon. We'll get going, Matthew. Talk to you soon."

Miguel, too, found an excuse and left the office with Caleb.

The office door closed, and the silence returned.

Matthew picked up his phone and checked it, but Veronica had not responded to his text messages.

He gave a vague sigh, took a cigarette from his pocket, lit it, and began smoking.

He sat alone in the office for a long time, hesitatingly looking at 'The Book of Flirting' on the table before finally picking it up.

The title page of the book reads: Are you still worried about not being able to catch the girl you like? Are you still upset because your girlfriend left you for someone else? Are you still a slick fish that slips through the fingertips of the rich because you can't catch beautiful chicks? Don't be sad; instead, learn the art of flirting with girls. This book will teach you how to win the girl of your dreams in three days!
