Chapter 749


    Chapter 749 He’s Jealous


    Well, he was the son of Tanya, after all. Of course he was proud. “You’re not even that old, Liam. Stay


    away from her, or you’re gonna have a knuckle sandwich feast.” Liam was starting to get a little


    aggressive.


    Veronica had to reevaluate her opinion of him. She had thought he was just a nice, nerdy guy who


    couldn’t fight, but now he seemed to be quite impulsive.


    “Lay a finger on me, and you’re gonna get it.” “Your mother is nothing, Liam. She’s not gonna be the


    n leader for long.”


    …


    They kept arguing, which gave Veronica a headache. She left the room, and Hendrey followed. After


    she went downstairs, Hendrey handed her the bracelet again. “Keep it. I don’t take back any gifts I give


    out.”


    Veronica looked at the bracelet and refused, “No.” She left the tea shop without even saying goodbye,


    but when she came home, she didn’t see Mateo anywhere.


    Crayson asked, “Why are you alone? Where’s Mateo?”


    “He ran into a friend, so they’re having a chat,” she gave an excuse and looked at the kitchen, ignoring


    what Crayson was saying. She could hear Matthew cooking inside and she wanted to take a look, but


    she went upstairs for fear of getting found out.


    A whileter, someone knocked on her door. “Time to eat, Miss Veronica.”


    Matthew. Veronica’s heart leaped with delight when she heard his voice. She quickly opened the door,


    and he came in right away. He wrapped his arm around her waist and pinned her against the door.


    Then he bit her lip.


    She gasped from the pain and thumped his chest. “Are you mad? They might find out.”


    “Don’t worry. They’re yelling at your little bodyguard.”


    “What do you mean?” Veronica was confused.


    He raised her chin. “You’re one charismatic woman. You just came to the n, and already two men


    are fighting over you. I feel insecure, so what should I do?”


    There wasint and frustration in his voice, and Veronica wanted tough, but she felt for him.


    She puffed her cheeks and grinned. “Nope. I just met Liam today, and he’s getting ideas about me. It’s


    as obvious as the sun.”


    “Is that so?” He cocked his eyebrow. He didn’t look as handsome as he used to under that disguise. In


    fact, he looked inconspicuous, but the air around him was still indisputably and obviously imposing.


    “Of course.” She wrapped her arms around his neck and kissed him. “He’s not even a tenth of the man


    you are.”


    “Really? Can you borate?” He smirked.

    “Not much to borate. He’s bad in every aspect?”


    “Is that so?” he purred. “You’ve only just met him, but you already know he’s bad in every aspect? How


    come you never told me you’re a irvoyant?”


    Was that some joke? Veronica got the innuendo, and she said, “I’ll tell you tonight, but you need to


    leave now, or they’ll find us out.” She pushed him away and opened the door so he could leave.
