As soon as these words were spoken, the young girls instantly screamed with excitement.
The Allen Family’s CEO is young and wealthy. If they could gain his favor, their future status would surely rise to another level.
At this thought, everyone rushed back to the dressing room to start getting ready, all wanting to show their best side in front of Matthew.
Only Ashley stood quietly in place, her mind full of confusion.
All of a sudden, what is Matthew doing coming backstage?
Even in the year Matthew most wildly pursued her, he wouldn’t come backstage; at most, he would have his assistant send her flowers for him.
The more Ashley thought about it, the more confused she got, and her hands hanging by her sides couldn’t help but clench tightly, not even feeling her nails digging deep into her flesh.
“Ash.”
dance troupe director’s slightly worried voice sounded in her ear, pulling Ashley’s thoughts back:“dance troupe director, what’s wrong?” “You don’t look too good. Are you feeling unwell? Why don’t you go back to the hotel to rest first, and you don’t have to worry about Mr. Allen.”
Ashley bit her lip, not speaking.
Her emotions were indeed not right now, and she couldn’t guarantee what would happen when she saw Matthew again.
So, Ashley finally agreed to dance troupe director’s words, and without even taking off her mask, she hurriedly walked out.
But just then, footsteps suddenly came from in front of her, followed by the eager voice of a stranger.
“Mr. Allen, please.”
“We are honored that you can grace our dance troupe with your presence.”
As the person spoke, they were about to lift the thick curtain in front of Ashley.
Her heart instantly tightened, and she quickly turned and hid in the corner, just as Matthew walked backstage.
The moment he entered, the girls from the dance troupe rushed forward jostling each other to surround Matthew, chattering greetings at him.
In an instant, the strong perfume scent from the girls also flooded into Matthew’s nose all at once, making him frown unconsciously.
He suppressed his discomfort, silently sizing up the group of girls in front of him.
Suddenly, his gaze fell on a certain corner, and with just one glance, he identified his target.
“That must be your dance troupe’s prima ballerina, right?”
With just that one sentence, everyone’s gaze shifted to Ashley, who was at the very end.
Ashley, now the center of attention, stiffened slightly, and her heart rate slowed a bit.
The dance troupe director saw that she hadn’t left yet, thought to herself, “This isn’t good,‘ but in the end, still forced herself to wave at Ashley.
Soon, Ashley walked in front of Matthew, and he no longer hid his gaze..
He thoroughly scrutinized Ashley from head to toe, but unfortunately, because the other party was still wearing a mask, he still didn’t know her true face.
His intense gaze made Ashley extremely uncomfortable, but she didn’t dare to act rashly, afraid of revealing herself in front of him.
The two stood in silence for a while, looking at each other, until Matthew finally spoke first.
“You… why are you still wearing a mask after getting off stage?”
From the moment this woman appeared, Matthew’s gaze was completely fixed on her, unable to move away.
While everyone else was trying their best to get his attention, only this woman was avoiding his gaze.
Even when stepping off the stage, she was the first to quickly get off.

This naturally caught Matthew’s attention.
After all, ever since he held a press conference to announce that he was married and widowed.
The women in capital chasing him were like A dime a dozen.
Only this woman in front of him avoided him like the plague, as if he were some monstrous beast.
And just now, the moment she danced on stage, he even thought he had seen Ashley.
If he hadn’t personally buried Ashley’s ashes, Matthew would have thought he’d seen a ghost.
So, with too many questions, he immediately went backstage after the show ended, approaching the woman wearing a mask.
