Chapter 74

“Bro, you should also address me as your dear sister.” There was a slight smile on her flawless face.

Just then, Matthew’s eyes met hers. “Are you even worthy of that?”

“Well, regardless of whether I’m worthy or not, I’m now Grandma’s god granddaughter and your sister. There’s no difference as to whether you admit it or not. Don’t you think so, brother?”

Their eyes met each others’ and although both appeared to be smiling happily, in actual fact, they were secretly having it out and neither of them wanted to give in to the other.

Matthew wasn’t tolerant of others’ flaws. Moreover, it was related to Elizabeth-the person he respected the most-so his attitude toward Veronica took a complete turn the moment he realized that she had used Elizabeth.

 

“Life and death are no different too. That’s because…”

He paused for a moment before caressing her chin with his index finger. Then, he calmly mentioned word by word, “It’s all within a flick of a finger.”

 

“Tsk! I’m really scared of your threats, darling brother!”

Veronica frowned and she purposely showed a frightened expression before suddenly bursting into laughter.

She lifted her head to look up at him. She continued to smile but shortly after that, her smile dissipated bit by bit and her expression turned cold. “As long as your grandmother is around, you’ll spare my life for the sake of her happiness. Come to think of it, you’re such a filial grandson.”

Just then, Veronica made a thumbs-up gesture at him.

“Bro, I do feel drained seeing you make so much effort to be a great fiance and a filial grandson at the same time.”

She lifted her hand to push his hand aside and before poking him on the chest with her slender finger. “Good luck to you!”

With that, Veronica smiled meaningfu
