Chapter 531

Screwed Her Over

Their breakup was painful for Veronica, but it was painful for Matthew as well. As he restrained his
fondness for her, he could hardly sleep at night and barely had any appetite. If not, he would not have
lost his mind in the cave with Veronica when they went on a picnic together at Qurra Mountain.
“Really?” Veronica asked doubtfully. “Don’t you already know the answer?”

“I don’t.” Veronica shook her head, speaking in a serious manner. The truth was that she had really
forgotten about that matter. Matthew’s face darkened, and he pinched her waist gently with his hand
that was wrapped around her as a small punishment. “Have you already forgotten about the incident in
Qurra Mountain, hmm?”

When he mentioned Qurra Mountain, Veronica’s face reddened, and her ears heated up as she lightly
pursed her red lips. “Uh… It was so long ago… O-Of course I’ve forgotten.”

Although more than a month had passed, she would definitely not forget about something as wild and
exciting as that. She was only ashamed to say it out loud.

“If you’ve really forgotten, I can take you back for more.” Though his words were innocuous on the
surface, they seemed to have a deeper meaning as he spoke.

Her brows furrowed and her eyes sparkled as she replied meekly, “That depends on my mood.” Upon
seeing her pure yet seductive expression, Matthew was unable to hold himself back.

He leaned close to her ear and said, “Now that I think about it, you must’ve enjoyed yourself that day
too, Roni…”

“You dirty old man.” Veronica rolled her eyes. When she heard the sound of the elevator from the
hallway, she began pushing him away. “Someone’s coming. Behave yourself, will you?”



“It’s not like we’re doing something shameful. Why are you scared…”

Just as Matthew was speaking, Veronica caught a glance of the people exiting the elevator. All of a
sudden, her eyes widened, and a look of panic flashed past her eyes. In the next moment, she grabbed
Matthew and dragged him into the living room, closing the door smoothly behind her.

“What’s wrong?” Matthew asked as he leaned against the wall of the entrance hall.

“Shh.” Veronica raised her finger against her lips, signaling him to keep his voice down. “It’s Ruka. I
didn’t expect her to be in this hotel.”

When Thomas contacted her in Castron and asked her to save Matthew, Veronica called Ruka after
leaving the hotel, saying that she had an urgent family matter and had to return to her country first. As
Ruka was worried about Hendrey, she didn’t ask any further questions. However, she did not know that
Veronica did not return to Destor at all, but had a narrow escape from death in Castron instead.

“Even if she saw us, it won’t matter.” On the contrary, Matthew felt that it was time to announce their
relationship to the public, so he did not want to hide it anymore.

“Have you lost your mind?” Veronica frowned. “Ruka used to like you so much, and she gave up on you
because she saw me kissing you while cross-dressing at the mall and thought you swung the other
way. If she found out that you’re dating me now, she’d easily guess that I was the one who kissed you
at the mall that day. Aren’t you just helping me gain another enemy?”

“How long do we have to keep this up?” Matthew’s face sank. He seemed unhappy.

“Now’s not the time for this. Let’s talk about it later.” After saying that, Veronica did not forget to warn
him. “Also, you must not let Yvonne know about our relationship. If she knows that we’re dating, she
might think that I paid off that hospital to prove that it’s a lie that Conrad doesn’t have cancer.”



Although Matthew and Conrad were uncle and nephew, they were also rivals in the Kings Family.
Yvonne’s family was well off, and she also bore Conrad’s child, which gave that child too much
influence on the Kings Family. Once Yvonne found out that she was dating Matthew, she would
definitely think that she was lying to secure Matthew’s position as heir to the Kings Family.

“Okay, whatever you say.” Matthew expressed his approval.

His sharp eyebrows lifted as he raised his hand to caress her cheek, his thumb tracing her red lips.
“There’s something I want to know. How did you make Conrad impotent?”

“Is he completely impotent?” Veronica had left with Yvonne in too much of a hurry and still didn’t know
the specifics of Conrad’s condition.

“If he takes some pills beforehand, he can somewhat hold out. He’s basically impotent.”

“Oh.” Veronica roughly understood what Matthew meant. However, not only did she not feel guilty, but
she even felt that Conrad had gotten what he deserved.

“This is what he deserves for all the rotten things he’s done.”

With this, she had also taken revenge for Yvonne.

“Have you thought about how you’ll tell Grandma?”

“Huh?” Veronica’s face suddenly fell, and her expression turned helpless. “I-I was only thinking about
enacting revenge on him. I completely forgot about this.”

She had no regrets. When she bumped into Conrad at Yvonne’s villa, she was enraged and was
completely out of her mind. Even now, as she remembered that Conrad called Elizabeth ‘Mom,’
Veronica did not regret it.



“I was just teasing you. You’ll be fine as long as I’m here.”

Matthew stroked her head as he gazed at her with a burning gaze. Then, he traced his hand down
along her face and smoothly lifted her chin before he kissed her lips.

“Mmph…” Her eyes widening, Veronica slapped his chest and pushed him away. “What are you doing?
Yvonne’s still sleeping inside!”

“She drank a lot at the bar, so she must be asleep.”

“That won’t do either!”

“But… I want to…”

Matthew looked down. As Veronica followed his line of sight, she saw a small yet conspicuous bulge
below.

Her cheeks turned as red as a tomato from embarrassment. “Matthew, how do you… have such poor
self-control now?”

Particularly after they reconciled in Castron, her relationship with Matthew had been heating up rapidly,
and they got along better than ever. The frequency also gradually increased as well. However, on
second thought, every couple seemed to act like this in their honeymoon phase.

Veronica forced herself to calm down. “Then, let’s go out and book a room.”

After all, they were already in a hotel, and going downstairs to book another room was a matter of a
few minutes.

“Too late.” Matthew did not give Veronica a chance and immediately dragged her into the bathroom
before locking the door.



“Hey, calm down! Yvonne is still here.”

“She’s sleeping.”

“What if she wakes up?”

“She won’t.”

“You… Mmph…”

Of course, she had no room to retort, and she didn’t dare to make a loud noise for fear of waking
Yvonne up. Hence, she could only give herself up to him.

However, just as she was drowning in delight, the bedroom door opened as Yvonne blearily walked to
the living room in her pajamas. “Roni?”

When Veronica in the bathroom heard the voice, her body stiffened, and her toes curled in
embarrassment. It’s over. I’m completely doomed.

Not daring to respond, Veronica, who was bending over the sink, turned around and glared angrily at
Matthew. “You’re going to screw me over.”
