Chapter 127: A Tiger Falls in Pingyang, Rich Woman in Love

Matthew Holt dislikes Nora Hart as much as he dislikes Mia Chase; the circles of Capital Port's rich and powerful aren't too expansive—the factions are varied and plenty, but the only difference is Mia Chase and Nora Hart are practically a faction unto themselves.

No one else is admitted.

Matthew's scrutinizing gaze shifted from Victor Leo, and he started sarcastically, "I didn't realize Mr. Chase had gotten so close to one of mine."

"One of yours?" Mia mulled over the words, over and over.

"Miss Holt spends a month inside and her people are suddenly yours? A tiger fallen flat loves the wealth of a rich wife—there's no lack of rich wives in Capital Port, plenty of those like Miss Holt who use their household expenses to support men."

"Miss Holt's million a month in living expenses is enough for her alone, let alone to support a man?"

A million? Victor's hand tightened beneath the table.

He thought Matthew was very rich.
