Chapter 463 I Have No Shortage of Spares
Veronica only asked Skylar to bring Miguel over to put on a show, in the hopes that Matthew would eventually hear about it. However, Matthew was there.
In this case, I must really put on an act before Matthew. “You… Miss Murphy, please have some self-respect,” Miguel said as he reached out to grab the key.
However, Veronica hid the key behind her, not wanting to give it to Miguel. “Am I disrespecting myself by pursuing someone I love? You must have failed your comprehension test during your school days.” “I… You…”
Miguel stammered. At that point, he was sweating profusely. He glanced at Veronica and Matthew, and Miguel felt a chill run down his back upon noticing Matthew’s terrifying gaze.
Gulping, Miguel answered in a resigned tone, “Fine, you win. I can’t afford to anger you, but I can hide.” After speaking, he moved from the driver’s seat to the passenger’s seat and was about to leave.
Veronica turned around and planned to go to the other side of the car to stop Miguel. However, Matthew stopped her path, and he did not plan to move an inch.
Frowning in displeasure, Veronica raised her head and met his eyes. Still, she didn’t speak and chose to go around to the left. However, when she went left, he went left and when she went right, he went right as well. Veronica was annoyed that she was blocked, so she ordered in a cold voice, “Get out of the way.”
Matthew put his hands in his pockets and looked down at Veronica from his upright position. His dark gaze was like an unpredictable abyss. He remained silent. Veronica pursed her lips and frowned. “I told you to get out of the way. Didn’t you hear me?”
Why is he deliberately blocking my way? Could it be that Matthew is still in love with me? Bah, who am I kidding?! He loves Sasha right from the start. F*cking cheater. “No.”
After a long silence, Matthew said a word. “Are you trying to pick a fight?”
“Miguel is my good friend. You are disturbing a good friend of mine, so I can’t just sit back and ignore what is going on.”
Matthew spoke in an orderly manner. Those words are reasonable. “Is he your biological brother, then?” Veronica snarled, then continued, “He’s not your family, don’t interfere with us.”
The scene had everyone’s attention, but they wisely chose to watch silently and not intervene. Although Veronica had broken up with Matthew, their relationship was delicate and hard to fathom.
“I treat him as my own brother.”
“Ha! Is that so?”
Hearing his words, Veronica grinned. “You say that, but do you want to sleep with your brother too? You already have Sasha, yet you still want to cheat on her and get together with Miguel too?”
Veronica felt sick when she thought Matthew had feelings for Sasha while they dated.
She had to admit she was a conservative and couldn’t accept it. She was even more unwilling to accept a cheater.
Veronica’s words were full of humiliation, but Matthew could sense a fit of jealousy in her words.
She says such cruel words because she still cares about me, right?
Thinking of this, he couldn’t help but laugh. “It has nothing to do with you.”
However, that smile was over-analyzed by Veronica.
He’s smiling so gently. Could it be that he really likes Miguel?
Veronica remembered that when she first went to Twilight Condominium to find Matthew, she saw him with two women.
She entered the living room at that time, and the two disheveled women came out of the apartment.
Although Matthew explained it later, now that I think about it, could it have been a lie?
“You… That’s impossible. Miguel is an upright gentleman, so he wouldn’t cheat like you.” Veronica raised her eyebrows and smiled confidently. “Don’t worry. I won’t give Miguel up because of your words. I love his gentle, easy-going, and cheerful demeanor.”
Veronica tilted her head, looked at the fleeing Miguel, and smiled. “Although he escaped today, there’s still a long time ahead. One day, I will capture his heart.”
She said this to Matthew, but her gaze was on Miguel the whole time. It sounded like a declaration of love.
The smile on Matthew’s face disappeared and it was replaced with a cold and terrifying aura.
At the same time, a car honked.
Another car was parked there. The door opened, and Stephen and Henry came out.
Matthew was about to speak, but he saw Veronica looking behind him. He followed her gaze to see Stephen and Larry appear.
Are they… here too?
Matthew’s expression turned thunderous at that moment, and there was a sense of calm before the storm.
A majestic air came over him, making those surrounding him unable to breathe.
“Hi, Crazy! Hello, Stephen.”
Veronica walked toward them while waving at them from a distance.
Matthew narrowed his eyes and silently stretched out a foot. Veronica stumbled unexpectedly and fell to the ground.
Matthew quickly stretched out his arms to wrap them around her waist and pulled her into his embrace. “What’s wrong? Do your legs go soft when you see handsome men?”
Matthew had hidden meaning in his words.
The dirty joke caught people off guard.
Veronica couldn’t help but feel annoyed. When she was about to curse at him, she changed her mind and smiled at Matthew. “That’s right. Is there a problem?”
She was hugged tightly by Matthew. She used one hand to put some distance between them and used the other to pull at his tie. With a charming smile, she purred, “Speaking of which, you taught me a lesson. You let me know that love is not worth it at all. However, life is too short, so I must learn to enjoy life. I must not miss any good things around me, such as money, power, and handsome men. Of course, I have no money or power, but it doesn’t affect me in hooking up with men.”
Veronica said those words lightly, and no one could tell the sadness she felt within. On the contrary, one would think she was showing off.
In the end, Veronica rose on her toes and approached Matthew before she whispered in his ears, “Actually, I don’t have to take the initiative. With my appearance, I will never lack a spare that loves me.”
To irritate Matthew, Veronica painted herself as an easy girl.
As she said that, she pushed Matthew away to walk toward Larry and Stephen.
As she walked, she turned back and loudly thanked Matthew, “Thank you for helping me; otherwise, I would’ve definitely fallen.”
