Chapter 79

Veronica sat next to Matthew and he held up a glass of wine. Then, he sat there enjoying the wine.

The time ticked by gradually and they sat there enjoying their red wines. Meanwhile, Veronica continued to watch the reality TV show and it didn’t take much to trigger a laugh from her. She laughed out loud from time to time, and she seemed to be in high spirits and she patted Matthew on the shoulders. “Look at them! Ha! This is too funny! That man’s too silly.”

OhI can’t stand this! This is so funny. My tummy aches so much from laughing too much!”

“The ice needs to be kept warm and using a blanket to wrap it up will only make it melt. Oh my gosh! Doesn’t he have any common sense? This is too funny and cute!”

The huge condominium was generally quiet when Matthew was by himself and it was to the extent that one would not be able to sense any presence of a living person. However, Veronica’s presence gave him a feeling that he had never ever experienced. He was very engrossed in this homely sensation filled with so much joy and laughter, which was completely devoid of all the silence and coldness from before.

Just then, Matthew glanced at a giggling Veronica, who seemed to have lowered her guard around him. The happiness she experienced was very infectious and he found himself quite relaxed and happy too.

After quite some time, she finally fell asleep and she dozed off on the couch.

She looked quite cute and she resembled a naughty little girl who had just nodded off on the couch.

Meanwhile, Matthew held up the wine glass and downed the entire glass before placing it down. Subsequently, he walked toward her and lifted his hand, wanting to gently stroke her cheek. However, he suddenly recalled the guarded look in her eyes in the elevator and in the end, he merely took her into his arms to send her into the guest room.

Matthew leaned forward and gently placed her down on the soft bed but before he could move into a standing position, Veronica suddenly placed both of her hands around his neck and hugged him. At that point, he couldn’t move a limb.

Just then, he frowned and tried to move, but she ended up hugging him tighter than

ever as she grunted. “You’re so annoying,” she muttered. “Stop moving.”

As such, he couldn’t bear to push her aside so he lay down next to her.

The soft bed sagged under Matthew’s weight and Veronica suddenly sensed that there was something she could lean on next to her. In her mind, she thought that it was the huge teddy bear she had at home, so she instantly lifted her feet to place them over it.

Furthermore, she couldn’t control herself and she nuzzled her face against Matthew’s chest. Then, she found a comfortable position before falling into a deep slumber.
