Chapter 78

“You’re just finding all sorts of excuses!”

Just then, Veronica rolled her eyes at Matthew and she felt that he was being utterly unreasonable.

She got the feeling that only his limbs had evolved since the Stone Age, but his brain was still stuck in

the prehistoric age. In short, he was an utter moron.

However, Veronica didn’t want to continue arguing, so she leaned against the window and remained

silent as she closed her eyes.

At that point, the car descended into silence.

Finally, they arrived at the underground parking site of the Twilight Club. The two of them subsequently

got out of the car and walked into the elevator, one after the other.

Thomas handed over the keys to Matthew before driving his own car back home. The former

adamantly refused to get involved in the matters of the bickering couple.

In the confined space of the elevator, Veronica tried her hardest to squeeze herself into a corner to

maintain as much distance from Matthew as she could. Every move she made clearly indicated her

loathing for him.

“Why are you standing so far apart from me?”

Meanwhile, Matthew, who was standing ramrod straight, glanced at her with a frown and there was a

significantly displeased look on his handsome face.

“I’m keeping my distance because I need to stay away from people like you. Idiotic behavior can be

contagious,” Veronica casually commented as she lifted her brows.

Matthew’s expression instantly darkened the moment he heard that.

Just then, he reached out and pulled her toward him. Then, he held her captive in his arms as he

growled, “Why don’t you try repeating that again?”

ALL

Veronica struggled to get out of his embrace but despite her struggles, she couldn’t seem to extricate

herself from his tight hold.

In the end, after realizing that her efforts were futile, she decided not to struggle unnecessarily.

And so, she looked up and glared at him. “I said I need to stay away from people like

you.”

“What about your next sentence?”

“Idiotic behavior can be contagious.”

“Do you have a death wish?”

He harshly pinched her on the cheeks. Her flawless, porcelain-like skin instantly bulged up, and she

looked quite comical and cute just then.

“You’re just making assumptions that I’m talking about you. Is that my fault? Besides, did I even

mention your name?”

Veronica’s pretty-looking brows were tightly furrowed and she reached out to swat the back of

Matthew’s hands. “Let go of me. Don’t you know that it’s inappropriate to touch the opposite gender?”

“We’ve been in the same bed, so don’t you think that it’s too late for all these?”

Matthew curled his well-defined lips into a smile and there was a hint of playfulness in his voice. Even

his eyes were full of desire.

The look in his gaze resulted in a shiver down Veronica’s spine and she gulped instinctively. “I’m

warning you, Matthew Kings! If you dare touch me again, I swear I won’t forgive you ever again in this

lifetime!” Veronica meant all of her words.

Meanwhile, Matthew scrutinized her for a moment before coldly exclaiming, “You look exactly like

Tiffany, so where did you get the confidence to actually think that I would want to touch you?” His

underlying meaning was that he would rather touch Tiffany than her.

Veronica’s heart was finally at ease the moment she heard that.

Ding!

Meanwhile, they arrived at the ground floor and the doors to the elevator slid open.

And so, Matthew relinquished his hold on her. Instantly, Veronica turned around to walk out of the

elevator and headed toward the living room.

She stood in the living room and turned to him. “You can sleep in the master bedroom and I’ll take the

guest room. There’s no need for any interaction between

us.”

At that point, Matthew finally saw the fear on Veronica’s face and she resembled a deer caught in

headlights. Her expression triggered a wave of sympathy in him.

“Alright.” He affirmed and turned around to walk into the master bedroom before shutting the door

behind him.

As soon as Veronica saw Matthew walk into the room, she finally took a seat on the couch, her

expression weary. Just then, she switched on the television to watch a drama.

Ever since Elizabeth had taken Veronica as her god granddaughter, Matthew no longer touched her. It

was quite likely that he had some reservations now that they were supposedly siblings by name.

Furthermore, Elizabeth had warned him repeatedly, so he should be quite wary of touching her

As soon as Veronica realized this, she finally felt at ease.

She sat there watching the drama. However, she found that it was quite boring, so she went to the bar

and took out a bottle of red wine. Subsequently, she took out a wine glass and walked toward the

couch as she took a sip of wine. She relaxed on the couch and continued to watch the drama.

The time ticked by, and it soon went from 8 PM to 12 AM.

At one point, Matthew walked out of the master bedroom and went into the study room. After that, he

didn’t step foot out of the room.

Veronica continued to watch television for some time but she found it quite boring so she went into the

guest room.

Just as she was about to take a shower, she suddenly realized that she didn’t have any clothes to

change into. However, she opened the cupboard in the room to find that it was actually filled to the brim

with autumn wear.

She flipped through the labels on the clothes and noticed that it was all in her size. Is this for me?

Nonetheless, she didn’t think too much about it and went into the bathroom to take a shower. After her

shower, she put on a pair of pajamas and lay down on the bed as she scrolled through her phone.

She tossed and turned and 2 AM soon rolled by, but she couldn’t sleep at all.

In the end, she got out of bed in the middle of the night, intending to go to Matthew’s study room to use

his computer to find out some information.

However, as soon as Veronica put on her bedroom slippers and pushed open the door to the study

room, she realized that Matthew was still at work.

“You… It’s 2 AM already. Why are you still up?”

Veronica was slightly

surprised. Turns out the infamous domineering president is actually so busy with work that he doesn‘t e

ven have enough time to sleep!

Matthew was currently seated in front of his computer and he was on a conference call. The people on

the other end were mainly several close business associates of his.

“Wow, Kings! Your pretty little wife seems to be quite anxious.”

“Ha! It looks like we’ve taken up Kings’ precious sweet time with his wife.”

“Don’t keep her a secret. Let us have a look at her!”

Just then, the men on the conference call teased Matthew relentlessly.

On the other hand, Matthew became thunderous and he instantly hung up the call.

He took a look at the time on the bottom right corner of his computer and found out that it was already

past 12 AM. In fact, it was already 2.30 AM. “Why are you still up?”

Veronica shrugged in response. “I couldn’t sleep.”

“Even so, why are you here?”

“I couldn’t sleep, so I wanted to use the computer.”

She had caught up on everything on her social media and nothing was interesting on the television.

Everything on the television was mindless lovey-dovey dramas with mediocre actors who lacked acting

skills. They were constantly flirting with women, so it was quite pointless to watch.

“It’s too late now. Wait till tomorrow to use the computer.”

“Hmph! You’re so selfish.”

Veronica thought that Matthew didn’t want her to use his computer, so she snorted coldly and turned to

leave the room in a huff. Subsequently, she plopped herself onto the couch and turned on the television

to find something to watch.

Shortly after that, Matthew walked out of the study room and saw that she was full of energy as she

watched a reality show. She didn’t seem the least bit tired.

And so, he murmured, “If you can’t sleep, why don’t you come over and have a drink with me?”

Having some alcohol could perhaps dull her senses and help her get some sleep. Earlier, Veronica had

consumed some alcohol but she had put everything away. The ventilation system of the condominium

was great that there was no scent of alcohol that lingered in the air.

“Sure,” Veronica agreed without any hesitation.

Subsequently, she got up without putting on her bedroom slippers and went to the bar to grab a

random bottle of wine and two wine glasses before walking over to him. “Coincidentally, I was keen to

drink some wine too,” she mentioned with a smile.

Matthew stood by the couch and looked at Veronica, who was dressed in a slinky, black nightgown,

with her hair falling around her shoulders. Her dainty collarbone and her slender neck were quite

prominent. She dashed around the clean tiles of the room in her dainty, milky-white, clean feet, and she

looked rather innocent and cute. She resembled an adorable young girl.

Matthew couldn’t quite contain his laughter as he kept his eyes on her unblinkingly.

“Why are you still standing there? Come over and have a drink!”

Veronica waved at him and opened the bottle of wine before pouring it into the wine glasses.

Although the red wines available were vintage ones and required some time for aeration, Matthew

didn’t remind her about it because he wanted her to go to bed as soon as possible.
