Her Biliionaire Husband (Veronica and Matthew) novel Chapter 466

Chapter 466 He Kissed Her

“What is it?” Veronica turned around and glared at him with a displeased look on his face. The man took a few steps forward and grabbed onto her hand before dragging her out. “Follow me. It’s too dangerous here.”

“Why are you dragging me out? Let me go!” Veronica was fuming as she tried to shake him off. However, her tiny hand was no match for his large and muscular arms, so she couldn’t get him to let go at all. “Hey, Matthew. Don’t force me to get violent!” Veronica growled.

Matthew finally let her go after hearing her threat. He turned around and stared at her with his handsome features. “Do you know how dangerous this is? If anything happens to you, I’ll—” He pointed at the mining well.

“Even if anything happens to me, what has that got to do with you? There’s no one else here, Matthew. So, you don’t have to be all pretentious in front of me,” she said. After the ‘inappropriate’ things that happened between Sasha and Matthew, Veronica had always felt resentful toward him. So, she would instinctively argue against whatever he said.

“It does have nothing to me. Nonetheless, if anything bad happens to you, Grandma would hold me responsible.” This was the best excuse he could come up with. “Hah!” Veronica seemed to have expected his response, and she spread her lips into a sarcastic smirk. “Who are you? You’re Grandma’s biological grandchild—she would definitely take your side. How could she possibly lecture you? What a joke,” she hissed.

Veronica’s delicate face was filled with a scathing look, making Matthew feel rather annoyed. After she finished speaking, she turned and walked back into the mining pit. After walking for about 10 yards, she looked ahead to see a pit of water about 90 yards away from her. There were salamanders inside. Out of curiosity, she wished to go over to take a look.

The salamander, scientifically known as the Ambystoma maculatum, was a tailed amphibian from the family of hermaphrodites and the phylum Chordata. Their bodies were large and flat, and they generally had a length of about 23 to 32 inches. They lived in caves, stone caves, and deep pools of streams and rivers at least 0.6 miles above sea level. It was a relatively common creature and belonged to the national second-level protected animals.

Veronica hadn’t seen them before, which was why she felt so curious about them. Regardless, she hadn’t expected Matthew to be so resistant to the idea. Humans were generally rebellious. The more Matthew wanted to stop her, the more she wanted to take a look at it. Finally, when Matthew saw her walking in without even looking back, he reached forward to grab her arm again. “Come back!”

“Hey, Matthew. Aren’t you tired of—”

“Wuu…”

“Ah!”

Veronica had been frowning at Matthew when a baby-like cry sounded from inside the cave. It came out of nowhere, and it echoed through the walls of the cave. Veronica was so shocked that she flung herself into Matthew’s arms before hugging him tightly. “What the f*ck! What was that? Why is there a child in there?”

She was like an octopus that clung to Matthew tightly. The man was stunned at how scared she was, and his muscles tensed up for a moment before he patted her on the back. “How will you go in there if you’re such a scaredy cat?”

In fact, for a second, she felt immersed in his passionate kiss. Unfortunately, the sound of salamanders was like a wake-up call to her. She quickly pushed Matthew away before raising her hand to give him a slap across the cheek. “Matthew, you b*stard!” As her hand swung toward his face, he widened his eyes and stood still while staring at her.

Veronica knitted her sharp brows and stopped her hand inches away from his face. The force of her hand brought about a surge of wind that made his hair move. “Are you crazy? You’ve only been away from Sasha for half a day. Are you already horny to a point where you’d kiss anyone you see?” Veronica was clearly furious, yet she couldn’t bring herself to slap him.

Matthew could have easily avoided her slap, yet he didn’t move at all. Tiny details like these made Veronica more confused than ever. Why didn’t he fight back? Why did he kiss me? Does he still have feelings for me?

“I’m sorry, I didn’t…” I didn’t control myself! Matthew couldn’t bring himself to say the rest of his sentence, so he changed his narrative instead. “I just miss Sasha after seeing you,” he muttered before turning around and walking away. He walked calmly and casually, almost as if the kiss hadn’t happened at all. When Veronica came to her senses, she pointed at Matthew’s back before shouting at him. “I want you to stop right there, Matthew!”

The lady ran over and circled around him to block his way before holding her hands out to stop him. “How dare you leave after taking advantage of me?”

“What do you want me to do then?” he asked.

“You kissed me once, so I’ll have to kiss you back to make it even!” After her resolute declaration, she actually grabbed his collar and dragged him over before getting on her tiptoes to kiss his lips. As revenge, she even bit him on the lips before letting go of him.
