Chapter 310 The First Time


    Elizabeth no longer tried to wrest free and let him hold her hand as they walked out of the office.


    Gracie and Esme were still outside, and they subconsciously took a step backward when they saw the


    couple walk out


    while holding hands.


    “Mr. Hilton,” they said in unison before greeting Elizabeth. “Ms. Wade”


    Once again, Elizabeth felt the urge to withdraw her hand. Yet, Matthew refused to loosen his grip.


    A hint of embarrassment crept across her face. After all, they were still her colleagues. She would be


    lying if she said she didn’t feel awkward after being seen holding hands with Matthew so openly.


    use.


    “The two of you should call it a day, too,” Matthew responded calmly.


    Still holding Elizabeth’s hand, he led her past them and headed straight for the private elevator


    reserved for the CEO’s


    Esme hurried after them, saying, “Mr. Hilton, we’ll send you home.”


    “All of you are to get off work now. There’s no need to follow me,” Matthew answered coldly.


    Usually, Esme and a few bodyguards would leave with Matthew after work to ensure his safety.


    After hearing Matthew’s instructions, Esme dared not to insist on following and halted his footsteps.


    Nheless, he called the bodyguards and told them to trail Matthew secretly and protect him..


    Once they were in the elevator, Elizabeth rested her head against Matthew’s shoulder. A warm, fuzzy


    feeling filled her


    heart.


    It feels so good that we can finally be open about our rtionship. I have a boyfriend. I’m in love!


    For someone who had never experienced the sweetness of love, she could not help thinking how


    wonderful it was. The corners of her lips also kept curving upward subconsciously.


    At that moment, Michael called her. After taking out her phone and ncing at the screen, Elizabeth


    answered the call.


    “Grandpa.”


    “Lizzy, remember toe home during New Year’s, okay? Even if you can’t make it back by New


    Year’s Eve, you have toe after that and spend some time with me. Bring the triplets with you, and


    also Dominic.”


    With the belief that Dominie was the children’s father, Michael could finally let go of what happened in


    the past.


    When Elizabeth heard the excitement in the elderly man’s voice, she replied, “Okay!”


    Then, she proceeded to enquire about his health and chatted with him for a while before hanging up.


    Chapter 310 The First Time


    By then, they were already in the car. Matthew was busy tapping away on his phone, and she guessed


    he was attending to


    some work matters.


    Elizabeth sneaked a nce at him as she felt like she had stirred up trouble. When Dominic met her


    grandfather the other day and imed that the kids were his, she didn’t exin because that was the


    first time she brought the kids back home. She didn’t want others to look down on them, so she dly


    epted Dominic’s kind intentions. Now, Michael considered Dominic as his grandson–inw. Yet, the


    man she loved was Matthew. She had to figure out a way to exin this whole situation.


    After Matthew finished replying to his text messages, he turned and nced at her.


    “Was that your family on the phone earlier? Do you want me to apany you back home for New


    Year’s and meet


    them?”


    her.


    Since they were dating, he thought he should meet her family.


    Elizabeth shook her head. “That’s all right.”


    Then, she leaned against his shoulder and asked, “What should we eat?”


    She deliberately changed the topic because she did not want to dwell on the phone call that weighed


    on her mind.


    Matthew did not press the matter further either. If she was unwilling to let him visit home with her, he


    would not force


    After all, he had heard her talk a little about her past. Perhaps she doesn’t get along with her family that


    well, and me going back with her probably wouldn’t help.


    “How about going to tinum te? Do you like that ce?” he asked.


    That was his favorite restaurant, and he always chose to go there whenever he ate out.


    “Yes. All their dishes are tasty.

    Elizabeth was not a picky eater, and tinum te was famous for its delicious food.


    Taking her hand in his, Matthew added softly, “tinum te was where I had a meal with my parents


    recently, so the ce holds a special meaning in my heart. If you don’t fancy going there, you can tell


    me what you feel like having. We’ll go and eat it together.”
