Chapter 325 How Could This Be f


    The two were fully captivated by their newptops. They felt that Matthew was generous, as all the gifts


    he prepared for


    the annual dinner were expensive. Hence, they decided to let him off for now


    Antony lifted his head, smiling faintly. “Mommy, we know that you’re busy with work. We understand.”


    With that said, he kept hisptop and nced at the time. “Mommy, we’re going to Great–grandpa’s


    home to celebrate the


    New Year together. Mr. Dominic is almost here.”


    Elizabeth was stunned for a moment. “What?”


    She did not mention that she would return to the Wade residence for the New Year. Instead, she


    intended to go to the


    Hilton residence, as she wanted to celebrate the New Year with Matthew.


    Just then, her phone started ringing. As soon as she noticed that it was Michael calling, she frowned.


    Didn’t Grandpa say I could go home the next day after the New Year? That was why I epted Old


    Mrs. Hilton’s


    invitation


    Left with no choice, Elizabeth picked up the call helplessly. “Grandpa.”


    “Lizzy,e back and celebrate the New Year with us. I miss you so much.”


    Elizabeth could tell from Michael’s voice that he was excited. However, she was in a dilemma.


    “Grandpa, c–can Ie


    home on the day after the New Year?”


    Michael nced at Richard, who was standing at the side. It’s rare for this brat to think of Lizzy. He


    even asked me to


    invite Elizabeth home to celebrate the New Year together.


    “Lizzy, can youe back now? You had been staying outside all these years, so I couldn’t even enjoy


    the New Year well. This year, you’vee home. I’m finally relieved.”


    Michael was telling the truth. He did not know what the others in the family felt over those six years.


    However, he missed Elizabeth more during the New Year. After all, he had loved and doted on her with


    all his heart since she was young. Hence, he felt that something was missing without her by his side.


    Elizabeth listened to what Michael said silently. She could not bring herself to reject him, so she


    answered, “Okay,


    Grandpa.”

    Right then, Cody opened the door..


    Dominic walked into the house in a dark blue suit. As he strode toward the living room, he exuded a


    dignified, majestic


    aura around him.


    Antony and Arthur exchanged nces before standing up in unison. “Mr. Dominic, you’re here.”


    It was evident that both of them were over–friendly when they saw Dominic. Usually, they would not


    even act like that.


    Chapter 325 How Could This Be


    Elizabeth knitted her brows, thinking. She assumed that Matthew was the reason why they were


    especially friendly with


    Elizabeth


    Dominic


    Matthew, who was sitting and chatting with Abby, stood up emotionlessly


    An arrogant look crept over his face as he strode toward Elizabeth. Reaching out a hand, he pulled her


    into his arms.


    “Lizzy, it’s almost time.”


    Elizabeth knitted her brows hard. With an apologetic look, she dragged Matthew into the study on the


    first floor. After closing the door, she hugged Matthew and said coyly, “Matthew, I can’t go to your house


    to celebrate the New Year. I have to go home and apany my grandpa. Don’t be angry with me,


    okay? I’lle home earlier tonight and spend time with


    you.”


    Matthew’s expression turned grim as he reached out his long, slender fingers to pinch her chin. His


    eyes were dark and


    terrifying You decided to stand me up because of Dominic?”


    There was no trace of emotion in his icy–cold voice. Elizabeth stared intently at him with her big, round


    eyes. Looking innocent, she exined, “It’s not like that. My grandpa called me and asked me to go


    home to celebrate the New Year with him. He’s old now. As he said, he lost a year with every passing


    year. Hence, he was afraid that he might not be able to wait until next year anymore. I feel like going


    home to spend some time with him upon hearing what he said.”


    Matthew had never asked her about her family and their affairs. Now that he heard what she said, he


    felt his heart soften.


    Lowering his head, he pressed his lips against hers and kissed her domineeringly.


    After some time, the moaned as she was short of breath. Hearing that, Matthew let go of her slowly.


    Elizabeth could finally breathe again. She came back to her senses in an instant. However, she had no


    strength left in her body, so she leaned against him and panted heavily, attempting to catch her breath..


    Matthew said coldly, “You can go home and apany your grandpa. But then, you have to bring me


    along.”


    Elizabeth was taken aback by his words. Startled, she lifted her head abruptly. “Matthew, I can’t bring


    you home for now. Can we talk about this some timeter? There are some things I haven’t exined


    to my family yet. It’s not appropriate for


    you toe with me.”


    Grandpa has assumed that Dominic is the father of my three kids now. If Matthew appears out of the


    blue now, what will Grandpa think? He’ll definitely be so disappointed in me. Perhaps he’ll chase me


    out of the house again!


    Elizabeth dared not think about the consequences.
