Chapter 64

Feelings for her?Impossible

These ‘unwitting bodily reactions’ were nothing more than a grown man’s physiological reactions. They didn’t mean anything.

The reason he rescued her, apart from not wanting his grandmother to worry about her, was because he had a singular, selfish desire.

The simple reason was that apart from her, no other woman could make him feel so much wanting. In fact, in the face of other women’s advances, he didn’t have the least bit of reaction.

 

Even though Matthew was aware of what he meant to her, he felt so heated at this moment that it was as if he was on fire. The heat was nearly driving him crazy.

On a normal day, he would set aside his cares to ravage her and extinguish the fire.

 

However, it had been only 25 days since her miscarriage, so he could not touch her.

Finally, he got up and went into the bathroom to take a cold shower.

However, once he lay down next to her, it didn’t take more than a few minutes for his body to burn up once again. Once again, he got up to take another cold shower.

As Matthew exited the bathroom in a towel and looked at Veronica lying in bed, he noticed that her dress had ridden up to her waist due to her sleeping position, effectively exposing her tight, shapely backside.

Frowning, he glanced down at the tent in his towel. Frustratedly, he lifted a hand to pinch the bridge of his nose. “Godd*mnit!” he swore before pulling the blanket over her and covering her entirely with it.

Once more, he returned to the bathroom and took another cold shower before directly heading to the bedroom next to the study to sleep.

Early the next morning, it stormed. Lightning split the skies and thunder rattled the windows.

Even though it was already 7 or 8 AM, the skies outside were dark and oppressive.

Large droplets of rain came pattering down, gathering into rivulets and streaming down the glass.
