Chapter 379 Roni Is Aggrieved

Caleb was not fluent in sign language. As a result, he didn’t understand what Abby was trying to express. “I… I can’t understand you,” he said.

When she heard that, her original bright gaze dimmed and her eyes were filled with disappointment. She simply smiled and lowered her head to take her basket and machete before leaving.

“Wait!” Caleb went after her and handed her the frostbite cream that he purchased. Noticing her full hands, he placed the cream in her pocket before moving off to one side and allowing her to leave.

Abby lowered her head to look at the cream in her pocket, then at him. Her gaze was filled with gratitude and, at the same time, helplessness. After that, she left.

Caleb did not chase after her again.

Meanwhile, after spending some time at Veronica’s house, the lot of them were packing their belongings and preparing to leave.

Veronica wanted to accompany her foster parents for a longer period of time, so she did not follow them back.

When Matthew was about to leave, he pulled Veronica into the bedroom.

She couldn’t help but ask, “What are you doing by acting so mysteriously?”

Moments after they entered the room, he shut the door and turned around to face her. One of his hands yanked her arm while his other hand rested on the back of her head as he lowered his head and kissed her on her lips.

His heavy breaths rushed into her nose and she found herself immersed in a familiar sensation.

Veronica raised her hands which were beside her and wrapped them around his waist, tiptoeing to kiss him back.

For those who were in love, separation was unbearable.

Just as they were enjoying their kiss, someone knocked on the door.

Veronica pushed him back and asked with her head tilted, “Who’s there? Give me a minute.”

However, there was no response from outside the door.
