Chapter 828 Teasing Shirley

“I can’t believe that you can’t even stop talking while you’re eating.” Crayson appeared to be quite firm

in his decision, and perhaps it was because he had an important event to bring Mateo along.

The group stopped talking and finished their meal in silence. After breakfast, Veronica gathered some

of her belongings and freshened up before leaving with Matthew.

Almost a month had passed since Matthew started his job at Mountainside Gardens. Matthew was now

on good terms with Crayson, so Crayson had arranged for an SUV for Matthew to use.

It was easier for Matthew to get around to buy groceries, and it would also be much more convenient

for Veronica to get around.

The geographical location of the hidden clan was mainly in the mountain regions. Hence, the roads

were mainly mountainous terrain, so the members of the hidden clan preferred SUVs over any other

cars, and it was the best-seller in this region.

After starting their journey, they sat inside the car and made a detour to One Piece Restaurant. Inside

One Piece Restaurant, Shirley and Skyler enjoyed breakfast together inside their room.

The incident last night made Shirley feel quite awkward, so she silently went back to her room before

dawn broke.

She was used to being afraid of the dark, and she was quite a coward. This hit her even harder while

she was at the hidden clan, for the building designs here exuded a mysterious feeling. She would

always become quite fearful as night fell.

At that moment, she clung tightly to a bowl of pudding and lowered her head to eat. However, she

suddenly thought of something and put down the spoon before lifting her head to look at Skyler. “Y-

You… Could you not let Roni know?”

Skyler was eating his omelet halfway, and he was caught by surprise. “What do you mean?” “I mean…

Well… When I was with you yesterday… Don’t tell Roni about that.”

Veronica would tell me off quite badly and say that I was useless if she knew that I rushed into Skyler’s

room in the middle of the night.

Skyler, who had been quite confused before this, suddenly realized what was going on, and a cunning

look flashed across his brown eyes. “Yesterday? What happened yesterday? Do you mean the incident

where you suddenly hugged me in front of my room?”

Shirley was an innocent young girl, so she couldn’t quite take Skyler’s teasing words. At that moment,

her face flushed bright red, and she hurriedly lowered her head. She held a spoon in her hand and

continued to eat the pudding.

“N-No… That’s not it. I-I mean the part where I slept in your room.” She stammered, and as she spoke,

she wanted to stick her head underground.

There was no way she could reverse time, but if only she knew that this would happen, she would

never have joined Skyler in coming to the hidden clan. “Sure, I’ll try not to say anything.”

Meanwhile, Skyler beamed widely upon noticing that she had blushed out of mortification and couldn’t

take his teasing words. As such, he stopped teasing her.

This little girl is foolish but quite adorable. It’d be quite hard to imagine what would happen if she ends

up in Garrick’s hands. That cunning man would surely take advantage of her.

As soon as Skyler realized that, he naturally came up with illicit images in his mind, and suddenly, his

expression darkened somehow. “You’re so dumb. I don’t even know how you manage to survive to this

day.”

“I…”

Shirley was just about to rebuke his words when she suddenly heard knocks on the door from the living

room.

She immediately stood up to go over and open the door. As soon as she saw the duo at the entrance,

she beamed. “Roni and Pre… Iron, it’s you guys! Good morning.”

Shirley nearly mentioned ‘President Kings’ out of instinct, but she quickly corrected herself to keep

Matthew’s identity a secret.

Veronica revealed a relieved smile, and the look in her eyes indicated that she was pleased with

Shirley for being a fast learner.

“Good morning.”

Veronica stepped forward and entered the room while expressing concern, “Did you guys get much

sleep last night? Have you gotten accustomed to this place?”

“Y-Yes, we have. We’re quite accustomed to this place.”

Shirley nodded and revealed a slight smile against her will. However, she rubbed both hands together

restlessly.

Skyler also stood up and glanced at them. “Good morning to you too. Have you had breakfast? Do you

want to join us for another round? Matt, I must say that the chef here at One Piece Restaurant has

exceptional culinary skills. The food tastes the same as what I would get in Bloomstead.”

As Skyler spoke, Matthew also entered the room from the outside.

Just then, Skyler sputtered upon seeing Matthew walk in. Matthew was dressed in a loose, oversized,

black-and-white striped T-shirt and a pair of baggy pants. Added to that were his extremely tan face

and the conspicuous beard on his face. At that moment, Skyler found Matthew a horrendous sight to

see.
