Chapter 317 Terms and Conditions

Out of sheer nervousness, Veronica responded stutteringly.

“Humans are all equal. I don’t think social status can stop us.”

Feeling Veronica’s slight acceptance of his proposal, Matthew pushed on by saying, “Maybe we could give this a try.”

Matthew was bravely asking a woman out for the first time.

On the other hand, Veronica hesitated upon seeing his expectant gaze.

Suddenly, she remembered what Tiffany had told her and how she had lost her right to be a mother just because he did those things to her.

Veronica could feel her pain as a fellow woman, and she feared Matthew somewhat after that.

“Matthew, I…”

Veronica wanted to say something before the man interrupted. “Stand up. The ground is covered in snow.”

“Okay.”

Quickly standing up, she also helped Matthew up.

Throughout the whole process, Matthew had stood up and cleared his back of snow with his hand still held tightly to Veronica’s. “Take the umbrella. It’s snowing quite heavily,” he said.

So, he took a few steps backward while holding her hand to pick up the umbrella before going to the sakura garden.

His warm hand enveloped her freezing one, making Veronica feel less cold all of a sudden.

Holding the umbrella with his left hand made him feel a bit awkward, so he raised his arm to hug her shoulders and held her closer. “Get closer so the snow doesn’t get you wet.”

As she felt Matthew’s gentleness, Veronica’s hands in her coat started fidgeting restlessly and her heart was beating so fast to the point where she felt it was getting hard to breathe.

Before she came to the Kings Residence, she was still angry at Matthew, yet now, they had made up.
