Chapter 703
Hayley Elrod was her biological mother''s name.
Afterward, Crayson and Destiny showed up in the pub. When they noticed Mateo and Veronica were
drunk, they ordered someone to send them back to the bamboo house.
In the bedroom, Veronicay dizzily on the bed until she fell asleep. While sleeping, she could vaguely
feel a familiar scent beside her. That familiar feeling made her open her eyes instantly. Sure enough,
someone else was lying beside her, embracing her and stroking her cheek with his big palm.
In the darkness, Veronica was aware of his identity, even though she couldn''t see him. She was
ovee with emotion and reached out to give him a tight hug before nting a passionate kiss on his
lips. As if through telepathy, they were aware of each other''s presence. The passionate kiss was like a
prairie fire burning endlessly. During the process, both of them immersed themselves tacitly and
enjoyed the wonderful moment. None of them ventured to break the silence or spoil the pleasant
atmosphere.
While hugging him, Veronica ced her fingers on his back. She gently rubbed the scars left by the
three gunshot wounds on his back, feeling a dull pain hitting her chest. He had sacrificed too much for
her. Throughout the passionate love-making session, she clenched her teeth and restrained herself
from making a sound for fear of rming the people outside.
After an unknown amount of time, their blissful session came to an end. She hugged him tightly, her
cheek pressed against his hot
chest as she inquired, "When did youe?"
Veronica only arrived in the hidden n yesterday afternoon, and Matthew quickly found out where she
stayed. His presence gave her a sense of security.
"I came two days before you."
He hugged her and nted a kiss on her forehead, uttering, "Silly girl. Don''t be afraid. I''m always here
for you. Do everything you want without fear."
"Thank you, Matt." She closed her eyes and let herself bepletely submerged in the feeling of
safety he had given her.
"You''re my wife. I''d do anything for you."
"I''m so lucky to have you, h-honey."
"What did you call me?"
After Matthew got acquainted with Veronica, she always called him by his first name. She only started
calling him by his nickname, Matt, recently. Now that he finally heard her calling him ''honey,'' he was
instantly over the moon.
"Honey!"
"It''s too soft. I can''t hear you."
"Honey?"
"What?"
"Honey! Honey! Honey..." She wrapped her arms around his neck and whispered in his ear.
Unable to control his joy, he reached out to p her bum lightly. "What an annoying little brat."
They say that ''absence makes the heart grow fonder.'' Matthew was already missing Veronica like
crazy. Now that she was finally in his embrace, it was more difficult for him to restrain himself. Feeling
the burning desire in his body, he got up and pinned her down again, confessing, "I want to do it again.
What should I do?"
"Nuh-uh. It''s dangerous now. We can''t be discovered."
She also missed him very much, and all her thoughts about him turned into a lingering drizzle,
nourishing her, making her unable to restrain herself too. Though she refused him, her body reacted
more honestly.
Matthew could feel the moisture on his fingertips when he caressed Veronica unintentionally. He then
chuckled, "You''re lying, Roni."
Being teased by him, her cheeks flushed red. "Stop being shameless. I never knew you were this
annoying before."

"Why should I pretend to be a gentleman with my wife? I''m not a hypocrite."
Hooking her chin with his finger, he leaned down and kissed her soft, red lips.
To Matthew, Veronica was like a coquettish poppy in full bloom. Just a single touch would make him fall
out of control. That feeling was... exceptionally wonderful.
