Bumpkins Rich Handsome Husband
Chapter 804 Plotted Against Mateo Veronicaâs heart pounded, and she thought kissing under such circumstances was nerve-racking yet thrilling, for it felt like they would get caught any second.
That said, she didnât fight it but let Matthew kiss her as he pleased. At that moment, all she could smell was Matthewâs unique scent, and it intoxicated her.
It wasnât after two minutes that Matthew finally released her. âYour face is pretty flushed,â he couldnât help teasing when he saw how bashful she looked. âAre you not worried Mateo will notice it when he comes back?â
At that, Veronica buried her face in her hands, panicking. âIs it that bad?â
âCome on, this isnât your first rodeo. How can you still be shy about it?â âSays the guy trying to swallow my mouth. I could barely even breathe.â
âItâs on you for being a dummy. Donât pass the buck.â Matthew flicked her forehead lightly. âThere arenât cameras in here. You donât have to be nervous. Itâs not like Iâm going to eat you up.â
Creakâ¦
Suddenly, the door opened, and Mateo came in with a cup of coffee.
He had thought heâd come in to find the two fooling around or slacking off, but to his surprise, they were sitting upright, assiduously memorizing.
After closing the door, the young man returned to his seat, leaning lazily against the executive chair as he read a book while listening to the two slurring their words.
However, he failed to realize Veronicaâs left hand and Matthewâs right were under the table.
He tugged on her hand mischievously, having a ball as he fiddled with her tender fingers.
While Matthew behaved brazenly against Mateoâs watchful gaze, Veronica tried to wriggle her hand out, but very quickly, she realized it would be a futile attempt, so she just let him hold it tightly.
âWrite it repeatedly once you have the words down. You can only sear the words in your brain after reading and writing them over and over again, or they will never come to you,â said Mateo sluggishly.
He didnât seem to have too much patience with the two. In fact, whenever he looked at Matthew, his gaze would be laced with despise.
Before coming to the hidden clan, Matthew studied intensively and managed to master it in just half a year. One might assume he had a knack for language or was even gifted at it. However, the truth was that no one knew just how much blood, sweat, and tears he had put into achieving such a remarkable feat.
âGot it.â
âAlright.â
With that, the two pulled out their pens and notebooks, scribbling the words attentively.
On the other hand, Mateo became tired from sitting, so he adjusted the back of the executive chair and turned it into a recliner.
After making himself comfortable, he placed a book on his face and drifted off to sleep.
Meanwhile, the couple continued scribbling their newly learned words, but sometime later, there came muffled snores. The two reflexively stopped and looked in the direction of the sound to find Mateo dead asleep, and the two smiled as they exchanged a glance.
Pulling another mischief, Matthew held Veronicaâs chin as he leaned over to kiss her lips, causing her to tense up at once. She was so shocked that her eyes widened with fear, worried that Mateo would suddenly wake up and catch them in the act.
While struggling, she kept her peripheral gaze on Mateo worriedly, feeling as though her heart would jump out of her chest at any second.
After successfully shoving Matthew away, she placed a book in front of her face and turned her head to glare daggers at Matthew. âAre you crazy?! You and I will be dead meat if he catches us!â she whispered.
âRelax, he wonât be waking up anytime soon,â Matthew answered composedly, baffling Veronica. âHe wonât? Why?â
âThereâs a little something in his coffee.â
As for what this âlittle somethingâ was, Veronica got a pretty good picture even if Matthew kept his lips sealed.
