True Love Waits

Chapter 1169 They Are All Crazy

Erica felt better after she quickly gulped down three glasses of water. She wiped her tears with a tissue listlessly and cried out, "I almost died!" "Are you alright now?" Matthew asked.

"Yes, much better." Erica grabbed another tissue and blew her nose into it.

Matthew placed an internal call and ordered, "Ask the cleaner to come to my office."

"Right away, Mr. Huo."

Hanging up the call, Matthew looked at the cup of hot and sour rice noodles and frowned. "Do you still want to eat this?"

Afraid that he would throw it away, Erica quickly took the cup away from him. "Yes, I'm gonna eat it." It was such delicious food; why would she waste it?

When the cleaner came in, Erica had just finished eating the last mouthful of rice noodles.

The cleaning lady emptied the trash bag which was full of used tissues and replaced the bin with a new bag. She also made sure to leave a new box of tissues on the desk.

Once the two of them were left alone in the office again, Erica told Matthew with a serious expression, "That was not funny at all."

He nodded, "Of course, it wasn't. After all, it was not a joke."

Erica gawked at him. He was straightforward. She didn't know what to say. "Y-you...you said you would respect my wish."

"Yes, I will respect your wish."

His promise relieved her. "Okay, but why did you want me to come here?"

He looked at her sternly. "Ask yourself what you had done at school and why you were reported by three of your schoolmates," Matthew said flatly.

Erica understood at once. Those three girls had reported her to the principal. She scoffed disapprovingly, "They spoke ill of me behind my back and talked trash about you too. I only scared them a little. It was just spiders! You should have seen their faces; they turned pale at the sight of it. Cowards!"
