Chapter 683 He Is Here

Like a fiery tornado that swept through, the kiss was hot and crazed. The initial neat bed had turned

into a mess after a few hours of bedroom warfare.

As the satisfied couple huddled together, Veronica lay against Matthew’s chest. “Matt, I feel like I have

to tell you this since you were best friends before. I saw Adrian hit Sasha the other day.”

Veronica would always remember the slap Sasha had given her in the mourning hall.

However, Veronica had always been someone who could clearly tell apart a grudge from gratitude. She

wouldn’t harbor hatred for Sasha just for one slap.

“Sasha doesn’t love Adrian, but Adrian does come from an unusual background. She…” Matthew

paused and continued solemnly, “She brought it upon herself.”

He and Skyler had warned Adrian to stay away from Sasha when he laid his hands on her before.

Sasha was the one who went looking for Adrian after that.

It wasn’t like Matthew and his friends could do anything when Sasha was the one voluntarily stepping

into the lion’s den.

Unfortunately, no one knew that the reason Sasha returned to Adrian again was to provoke Matthew.

First of all, she wanted to use Adrian’s romantic feelings for her to provoke Matthew to let him know

about his love for her. And second of all, if Matthew turned out to not love her, she could also attract

Matthew’s attention by getting into conflicts and getting beaten up by Adrian.

Men all loved meek women who depended on their men, and men were born to find pitiful women

irresistible to not protect. That was what made Sasha think that those were the only ways she could

‘awaken’ Matthew’s love for her.

However, Sasha did not have any self-awareness. She had no idea that everything she did was just to

deceive herself.

Right then, Veronica’s tummy started rumbling.

Embarrassed, she peeked at Matthew and let out a small smile. “I’m hungry.”

“Let’s get something to eat. I will eat with you,” he suggested, to which she nodded in response.

She had been fully immersed in the character of a widow nowadays, after all. Thinking that she had

probably convinced Zac and the rest of them, she decided it should be reasonable for her to order

takeout to dine together.

And so, she called the front desk to order some supper.

It only took a while before the food was here.

The couple got up and sat in the living room as they watched the sumptuous supper on the table.

Veronica then placed her elbows on the table and looked at Matthew, her eyes full of admiration and

love. “Matt, how long has it been since we ate together?”

The bathrobe-clad man was sitting across from her when a refreshing smile appeared on his flawlessly

handsome face. “Too long.”

As he spoke, he put on gloves and deshelled a prawn for her. “I know you like this. Have more.”

It had been some time since he last saw her. Now that they had reunited, Veronica was visibly thinner

than she was before. His heart broke to see her current state.

The last time they met was in the forest in the dark of the night. He couldn’t see her well then, and he

didn’t know how much she weighed too.

Now that he was seeing her under the bright lights, he finally saw clearly how much sharper her

features had gotten. She was so skinny she barely looked like her old self.

“I am sorry for making you suffer.” He placed the prawns on her plate. Dark eyebrows pulled into a

frown, he got up and walked to her side before putting his palms on her cheeks again, making her lean

into him. “I suddenly realize how botched the plan is. You are putting up with too much by yourself. I

regret this. I probably should fight head-on.”

Veronica’s red lips immediately curled into a happy smile when she felt Matthew’s guilt and self-blame.

She felt that all the sacrifices were worth it.
