Chapter 69

Indeed, Matthew had said that the previous evening, but he had been lying.

Now that he changed his mind, he corrected, “You remembered wrongly.”

“This is what you wanted, Young Master Matthew-“Waiting at the second floor basement, Thomas had gone up to greet Matthew upon seeing him walk over, only to witness Veronica holding onto Matthew’s hand and skipping alongside him as she joked and laughed.

Both of them were acting intimate without the animosity from before, when they would be filled with murderous rage whenever they set eyes on each other.
