Chapter 215 Falling Into a Secret Basement

“I’ve already said…”

“Stop this!”

Matthew, who was suppressing his anger, tried to explain, but Veronica was having none of it. “Don’t try to bulls*it about me having insomnia or depression. Do you think that just because you studied a few more years than I did, I’m some sort of fool?”

Exasperated, she continued, “Let me tell you something. If not for the fact that Grandma treats me so kindly, I would’ve called the police to let them arrest you a long time ago, you r*pist. Given all your previous offenses, being executed by shooting would be too nice of an ending for you!”

This disgusting scum.

Matthew was speechless at her words.

With a face as sour as lemons, if not for the fact that he loved her, he would not have let her live to see another day.

“What will it take for you to believe me?”

Exhaling, Matthew restrained himself as best he could.

Yet, Veronica only pushed him aside and waved him around. “Liar, liar, pants on fire.” After saying that, she left.

Matthew, who adjusted his suit with one hand on his hip and the other pinching his eyebrows, watched her back as he then started to pace around in the living room.

Under these current circumstances, he knew Veronica would not believe him no matter what he said.

Alone, Veronica was walking through the manor leisurely while admiring the gorgeous view of the garden.

Passing through the garden, she crossed a cobblestone pathway before reaching a small bamboo forest.

The spring wind was blowing on the bamboo as the fallen leaves had accumulated into a thick pile.

Veronica, who was still standing on the pathway, suddenly had an idea come to mind, which was to take a selfie in this picturesque forest.

Taking her phone, she was thinking about where the best placement for it was until the pesky Matthew came along.
