CHAPTER 1221 AN EXCITED SHIRLEY
"Does he like Shirley?" With her sharp instincts, Veronica quickly caught the key message.
"Maybe." Matthew didn't give a definite answer because he couldn't be sure of Skyler's feelings for Shirley. "Let's wait for them in the room." Reaching out, he held her hand, a familiar gesture that they had done countless times.
But since they arrived at Hidden Clan, they had deliberately kept their distance, afraid of being discovered. However, this was One Piece Restaurant, Matthew's territory, so he naturally had no worries.
Veronica's heart warmed up at the touch of the warmth in his palm, and her eyes crinkled as she smiled.
They went to the private room on the fifth floor, and when they walked in, she realized that it was designed as a suite. The living room was outside, and inside was a bedroom. Across from the bedroom was an office that doubled as a study, with a desk conveniently placed by the window.
"This room is not open to the public, isn't it?" Standing in the room, she looked around before turning to Matthew doubtfully.
A curve appeared at the corner of the man's lips. He held her hand and brought her into his arms, gently embracing her. "You're so clever."
His fingertip touched her cheek, and he leaned down and pressed his forehead against hers, his every move intimate and filled with endless adoration.
They looked deeply at each other up close, and their breath became heavier. His voice was particularly husky when he spoke, "If it weren't for Skyler and the others suddenly coming over, I would have made love to you here."
Veronica laughed, and her hand around his waist pinched his lower back playfully. "Didn't you have enough with me last night? Do you still want to do it here?" She really couldn't understand how he could have so much stamina.
The man shook his head. "It's different."
"What's different?" She didn't understand.
After speaking, she saw a mischievous smile on his face. He leaned close to her ear and lowered his voice. "There are outsiders there, so you can't let go, and I can't even hear your… voice."
Veronica's cheeks turned red like a boiled shrimp in an instant.
Just as she blushed and lightly bit her red lips, he raised his hand and held her chin. "Even if you scream your lungs out in this suite, no one will hear it."
"Get away, you're shameless!" Blushing, Veronica couldn't withstand his scorching gaze, so she pushed him away with one hand.
Even though she pushed him away, Matthew still held her hand tightly. Gently, he pulled her toward him, and her body turned around before she could stop herself, her back against him as he embraced her.
Holding her cheek with his right hand, he turned her face to the left, lowered and tilted his head, and kissed her red lips.
Their lips met lightly, and Veronica felt the heat of his lips and his heavy breath, which made her heart gallop and her breathing irregular.
Knock, knock, knock.
Luck was not on their side. The sound of knocking on the door of the room sounded. "Excuse me, your guests have arrived."
Hearing the sound, Matthew raised his head reluctantly and saw the glimmer at the corner of her lips. He wiped away the stains with his hand and smiled tenderly. "I'll get the door."
He let go of Veronica, walked to the living room door, and opened it. Outside stood Skyler and Shirley.
"Come in." Matthew didn't say much, stepping aside to allow them in.
At first, Shirley and Skyler didn't recognize Matthew and thought he was a stranger until they entered the living room and saw Veronica standing at the side. Content © copyrighted by .
Overwhelmed with excitement, Shirley trotted over and hugged Veronica tightly. "Ron, I finally see you. I was so worried."
Veronica smiled helplessly at being hugged so tightly and patted Shirley's back. "Why did you come here?"
"Skyler brought me here," Shirley said, pointing at Skyler.
