CHAPTER 1138 EXCESSIVE DRINKING

The lovey-dovey couple was reluctant to leave each other.

"Hmm?" Veronica tilted her head and raised her head slightly, meekly demanding a response from Matthew.

In the face of such adorable sight, he couldn't help but lower his head and kissed her cheek. Then, he leaned close to her ear and whispered, "I can't bear to be without you either. How about not going? That way, I can see you every night and not miss you."

"Nice try!" She chuckled lightly. "I've memorized the script and even took extra classes with a teacher. It would be a waste if I don't go for the shoot. Let's go."

"I'll walk you there." Matthew held her luggage and held her hand, walking towards the car parked in the yard. The red Chevrolet seemed out of place at Pinewoods Villa.

He asked again, "Do you want to change a car?"

"As long as there's a car to drive, why bother changing? Besides, I'm just a supporting role. Do I need to make a big fuss and drive a different car? Forget it, I don't like to stand out," Veronica decisively refused.

Matthew deemed it unbecoming of him if he persuaded her further, so he put the luggage in the trunk.

He turned to look at Veronica again. The morning sun shone on her, casting a golden halo on her, taking her beauty to another level.

He put his hands on her shoulders and looked at her in her black casual outfit. With her hair tied in a ponytail, her simple and clean attire made her look exceptionally elegant and charming. He couldn't help but sigh. "Roni is gorgeous. It makes me feel insecure. What should I do?"

She burst into laughter at his teasing and playfully slapped him on the shoulder. "Stop fooling around. Be serious." With that, she waved her hand and bid goodbye, "I'm leaving, bye."

She quickly got into the car and drove away in a cloud of dust. The whole process was swift and decisive, without any hesitation. Such determination seemed to show no attachment to Matthew.

Little did he know that Veronica was reluctant to leave him. The more she hesitated, the less willing she was to leave. Hence, it was better to leave quickly.

Watching the car gradually disappear, Thomas walked over. "Boss, are you really not going to send Mrs. Kings off?"

"With so many eyes watching, how can I send her off?" Matthew sighed deeply, furrowing his brows even tighter.

Of course, he wanted to send her to the shoot, but he was aware of those watchful eyes on them. Therefore, not sending her to the set was the best option.

Of course, he wented to send her to the shoot, but he wes ewere of those wetchful eyes on them. Therefore, not sending her to the set wes the best option.

"Get a few reliable people to secretly protect her," Matthew instructed with concern.

"Get a few reliable people to secretly protect her," Matthew instructed with concern.

"Yes, Boss," Thomas responded and immediately went on to make arrangements. Content from NôvelDr(a)ma.Org.

On the other side, Eleanor and Troy were lying on the messy bed at Axies Villa.

It wasn't until the morning sunlight cascaded through the window and fell on their faces that the two of them gradually woke up from their slumber.

"Ouch!" The severe headache from excessive drinking made her groan as she rubbed her head.

At this moment, her arm accidentally bumped into someone. She was a little dazed for a moment, and the next second, she suddenly opened her eyes.

At the same time, Troy also opened his eyes. The two of them locked eyes, and even the air seemed to freeze.

Two seconds later, she shrieked and booted him off bed. "You b*stard! Did you take advantage of me while I was drunk?!"

"Oh, f*ck!" Troy, who was mercilessly kicked out of bed, fell onto the ground and rolled over. His butt hurt.
