Chapter 1160


    Chapter 1160 Confessing Everything


    Veronica wasn''t surprised by Matthew''s appearance.


    However, the man who used to be so high and mighty suddenly apologizing to her made her somewhat


    surprised.


    Leaning against his chest, she let his familiar scent fill her senses. Instantly, theplicated emotions


    in her heart dissipated.


    She trusted Matthew, but seeing him so intimate with Eviette today inevitably made her jealous.


    "Exin yourself?"


    At first, Veronica didn''t think much about it, but Matthew''s sudden attitude made her feel that the


    situation wasn''t that simple.

    Although he was in the room, it was dark because the room card was not inserted, and Veronica still


    had the room card in her hand.


    In the darkness, Matthew held Veronica tightly as if afraid she would turn around and leave if he let go.


    Sensing his hesitation, Veronica was sure that there was more to the story, so she inserted the room


    card, and the room instantly lit up as bright as day.


    She held his hand, and the two looked at each other. Even though it was just eye contact, it was


    enough to calm her restless mood.


    The two sat down on the couch, and Veronica got up to the liquor cab and took out a bottle of red


    wine and two wine sses. Then, she opened the bottle and poured the content into two sses. She


    handed one of the sses to Matthew. "Since you did this, there must be a reason. I still believe in


    you."


    Matthew''s face was filled with worry, and his slender fingers reached up to tug at the tie around his


    neck. He leaned forward, spread his legs, and rested his elbows on his knees. With one hand holding


    the wine ss, he lowered his head in contemtion. After a while, he apologized, "I''m sorry. There


    are certain things that I should have told you from the beginning. Do you remember a person called


    ''vian'' who came to our house before?"


    vian?


    Veronica pondered for a moment and remembered the day at Pinewoods Vi when her parents came


    over, and they were having dinner. One of the maids suddenly came and told them that a man by the


    name ''vian'' was here to see Matthew.


    "Yes, I remember." Veronica nodded.


    Matthew''s expression became serious. He raised his ss and drank the wine in one gulp, leaned


    back on the couch, exhaled, and continued, "His name is vian Kings."


    "vian Kings?"


    Suddenly, Veronica was a little puzzled. The name somehow rang a bell to her.


    After a few seconds of silence, she suddenly realized. "Isn''t vian Kings your deceased father? How


    is he still alive?"


    Matthew shook his head, lowered his gaze, and nced at the transparent wine ss in his hand.


    Heavy emotions were written all over his face.


    In front of Veronica, he never pretended to be someone else.


    "He didn''t die. vian had an affair with another woman shortly after marrying my mother. At first, it


    was kept a secret, but the truth was eventually revealed. Women in that era had conservative


    traditional values, so my mother never thought of getting a divorce. She tolerated everything until she


    fell ill in the end. Later, my grandmother found out about this and ordered vian to cut ties with the


    other woman, or she would cut off all ties with him. To this day, he never agreed.


    "Due to that, my mother died of depression. vian never repented and was cut off from our family by


    my grandmother and was dered ''dead'' to the outside world. I only learned the truth about this many


    yearster, but I didn''t want to get involved. I thought the matter had ended there, but vian suddenly


    appeared more than a month ago, wanting to acknowledge me as his son.


    "For a selfish person like him to suddenly show up must mean that he carries a purpose. Besides, he is


    now thriving in Kynd and has his own family. He doesn''t need to seek for me again."
