Thump, thump…. Her heart raced. Kissing in this kind of environment made Veronica feel nervous and excited; it was as if they could be caught any moment now.
She didn’t struggle. Instead, she allowed the man to kiss her passionately. Between their breaths, she could smell Matthew’s unique scent that intoxicated her.
After two minutes of kissing, Matthew finally let her go. Seeing her shy expression, he couldn’t help but chuckle. “Your face is so red. Aren’t you afraid that Mateo will notice later?” Veronica panicked and covered her face with both hands. “Is my face really red?”
“What’s the matter? We have kissed so many times, but you still get shy?” “Who’s shy? It’s because you kissed too passionately that I couldn’t catch my breath.”
“That’s because you’re too clumsy. Don’t shift the blame.” Matthew lightly flicked her forehead. “No surveillance cameras are in the room, so you don’t need to be so nervous. I won’t eat you.”
Creak! Suddenly, the door to the study was pushed open, and Mateo walked in with a cup of coffee. He had expected to see the two of them laughing and fooling around or slacking off. To his surprise, they were sitting upright, earnestly memorizing vocabulary. His stomach churned as he felt like he had misjudged them.
Closing the door, Mateo walked to his seat and lazily leaned back in the big chair, reading a book while listening to the two of them recite words. However, he didn’t notice that both Veronica’s and Matthew’s left hands were under the table…
The man couldn’t keep his hands to himself. He kept playing with her soft fingers, thoroughly enjoying himself.
Matthew was shameless even when Mateo had his eyes on them. Veronica struggled for a moment, but when she realized that she couldn’t free herself from his grasp, she could only let him hold her tightly.
“After you finish reading, start writing. You need to read and write vocabulary to remember the words better. Otherwise, you’ll never learn it.”
Mateo lazily said. He seemed to have little patience for the two of them. He even looked at Matthew with a hint of disgust in his eyes.
Before long, the two of them took out their notebooks and began to write the words earnestly. Before coming to the hidden clan, Matthew had studied hard and mastered the hidden tongue in half a year of intense learning.
No one knew how much effort he had put in; they simply thought he had a natural talent for languages. If not, they even thought he was an extraordinary talent.
“Understood.”
“Okay.” The two of them obediently took out their pens and notebooks, diligently writing the words. As Mateo grew tired from sitting in the big chair, he reached out and adjusted the backrest, turning it into a recliner.
Lying on the recliner, he covered his face with a book and fell into a deep sleep. As the two of them were writing, they suddenly heard the sound of even breathing.
They stopped writing and looked up at the sleeping Mateo, exchanging a smile. Matthew mischievously lifted Veronica’s chin, leaned in, and kissed her lips hotly.
Veronica’s body tensed up at that moment, and her eyes widened in fear. She was afraid that Mateo would notice Matthew’s actions. She struggled while glancing at Mateo from the corner of her eye, feeling her heart almost jump. out of her throat.
Pushing Matthew away, she held a book in front of her face and turned her head to the side to angrily glare at him. “Are you crazy?!” she hissed. “We’re done for if he finds out.”
“Don’t worry. He won’t wake up for a while,” Matthew replied calmly. Veronica was surprised. “He won’t? Why not?”
“I added a little ‘something’ in his coffee just now.”
As for what that “something” was, Veronica could guess even if Matthew didn’t say it.
