Chapter 76 Little Liar


    That very night, Elizabeth was gued with a dream. She dreamed that she fell into the water and had


    difficulty breathing. It was a horrible feeling.


    Anyway, she didn’t get to sleep well and woke up the next day feeling exhausted.


    She opened her eyes and was greeted by a handsome face that was mere inches away from


    her. The owner of the face was sleeping soundly, and his thick and beautifulshes cast a shadow


    beneath his eyes.


    It gave


    his


    eyes an extra touch of mystery.


    Elizabeth gazed at him silently, for he looked dashing when he was asleep.


    What a hunk. I never knew that men could look as gorgeous as a painting when they are


    asleep. Women are sleeping beauties, but he looks like he belongs in a gorgeousndscape


    painting. He looks as strapping and tall as a mountain.


    It took a few moments before Elizabeth regained her senses.


    She shook her head and chided herself for being mesmerized by him. What a strange


    feeling.


    Sensing her movement, the man tightened his arms, and Elizabeth was crushed against his


    chest as her lipsnded on his cheek.


    Matthew opened his eyes and met her misty gaze.


    Realizing she had just kissed him, he shed a rakish smile.


    “Did you just kiss me in secret?” he asked.


    He sounded so confident, as though she had kissed him for real.


    Elizabeth jolted up and touched her lips subconsciously.


    Just now, you pulled me into your arms, and I identally kissed you. It was an ident.


    At the sight of her fear and anxiety, Matthew shed a wide grin.


    What a wicked man! Why am I always captivated by him? He makes me do strange things


    that are out of my control.


    Elizabeth shook her head to clear her mind.


    Matthew furrowed his brows. “What did they give mest night? My head hurts.”


    It was then Elizabeth btedly recalled that they were in her room. He got drunkst night


    after drinking the liquor Cody used for cooking. It was strong, so she decided to take care of him


    just in case something were to happen to him.


    After remembering everything, she nced at the bed.


    When did I get into the bed? I somehow managed to squirm into his arms, too!


    Elizabeth wanted to pass out in embarrassment. Why did I do that? I made my bed on the


    ground and was prepared to sleep on the floor. In the end, I crawled back into my bed. How


    mortifying!

    Matthew watched as she stuck her tongue out, shook her head, and scratched it.


    Finding her adorable, he tamped down hisughter and asked icily, “Was it fake alcohol?”


    Elizabeth shook her head. “No, it’s legit. The liquor was brewed by Ms. Elliott’s rtive, so it


    has more alcohol content than the usual liquors sold in the market.”


    Matthew arched a brow. “Oh. I didn’t get to eat dinnerst night. Will you provide


    breakfast?


    Finding him pitiful, Elizabeth gave him an apologetic smile. “I’m sorry, Matthew. My children are a little


    mischievous. Please don’t get mad at them. Of course you’ll get to eat breakfast. It’ll


    be ready after


    you wash up.”


    After sitting up, Matthew nced at himself. He promptly pulled the covers up to cover his


    “Who took my clothes off?” he demanded.


    Elizabeth could see the fear in his gaze.


    Huh? Why would he react this way? Is he worried that I had taken advantage of him?


    “It was Ms. Elliott. Don’t wony, she’s old enough to be your mother. You don’t have to be


    concerned.”
