Chapter 33

It was obvious that Veronica was avoiding questions about Matthew.

Since that was the case, there was no need for him to pursue it,

Xavier finished peeling the apple and handed it to Veronica. “Here. Eat it.”

“Huh? It’s for me?”

Veronica was quite surprised by his actions. When she saw him peeling the apple just now, she thought he was doing it for himself.

After all, Xavier was known for being a famous playboy in Bloomstead. He never knew how to be tender toward women.

Yet, he actually peeled an apple for her today.

“Hahaha. No, no, it’s okay. I don’t want to eat it.” Veronica quickly waved her hand and refused.

“This is my first time peeling a fruit for a woman, yet you dare to refuse?”

Xavier’s face sank, and his posture undoubtedly changed too.

He seemed to be saying, If you dare to refuse what I give you, watch out for the consequences!

Veronica was a little touched. She accepted the apple and took a bite, then said while chewing, “Thank you.”

In Bloomstead, she was a stranger in a strange place.

Her real family was her ‘enemy’, but someone who had nothing to do with her was willing to stay by her side.

It was hard for Veronica to not feel moved by this.
