CHAPTER 1103 BATTLE FOR THE HUSBAND
Ever since Matthew found out about Sasha's feelings for him, he could no longer interact with her as casually as he did before.
"I'm kinda busy with work right now. If you have too much time to kill, or if Adrian is bullying you, I'll contact Caleb. He can take care of it."
It was an attempt to stop her from pestering him.
The ruthless rejection had her staring at Matthew incredulously. Her eyes seemed as affectionate as ever.
Within fleeting seconds, the joy in her gaze died into disappointments before morphing into despair. Finally, her eyes reddened and tears trickled her cheeks.
"Do you have to be this harsh?" Sasha choked.
Matthew took and lit a cigarette from the table before smoking with knitted brows.
Failing to get an answer from him, she threw her bag onto the table and then pulled down the strap of her off-shoulder dress. The sound of the zipper echoed through the walls.
The man turned away from the window and faced her upon hearing the sound, only to be shocked to see Sasha taking off her one-shoulder dress. The dress slid off her flawless skin, revealing her enticing curves.
"Sasha, what are you—" He was halfway through his reprimand when the door was pushed open.
It was Veronica, who returned upon having lunch with Xavier early on. She had packed lunch for Matthew at the Turkish restaurant.
Who would've thought of witnessing such a scene after entering the office? Her delicate face turned cold as she held the lunch box tightly, angry.
"What's this? We've just divorced, and now you're here seducing him in public. Are you that desperate?"
No matter how patient she was, she couldn't help but get angry when she saw a woman undressing in his office.
She visited him at work twice. The secretary was seducing him previously, and this time, she witnessed how Sasha was throwing herself at him.
Veronica had no sense of security.
In the meantime, Sasha never expected Veronica to show up at this moment. She hurriedly dressed herself in an attempt to remain calm, "You're no longer married. Why are you still hanging around?"
Veronica glared at Matthew, only to see him shrug his shoulders with an innocent expression. Content from NôvelDr(a)ma.Org.
"Although we have divorced, we have two kids. We can't avoid each other for a lifetime."
She sat down with the lunch box in her hand, glaring at him with crossed legs. "Mr. Matthew, even though we are 'divorced', you are still the father of my kids. Shouldn't you ask for my opinion when it
comes to finding a stepmother for them?"
Since they had publicly announced their divorce, the two of them had to put on a show in front of Sasha to avoid giving the game away.
"I—"
He was about to say something, but Sasha rushed angrily to Veronica's front. She pointed a finger at Veronica. "Who do you think you are? Who are you to interfere in our affairs?"
Languidly, Veronica sat sideways while resting her hand behind her head. "Because I am his 'ex-wife.' Is that reason alone enough?"
"So, you are aware that you're his ex-wife. The more reason for you to stay away from him!"
