The Life Of A Billionaires Wife

Chapter 78 Drunken Behavior

“You’re just finding all sorts of excuses!”

Just then, Veronica rolled her eyes at Matthew and she felt that he was being utterly unreasonable. She got the feeling that only his limbs had evolved since the Stone Age, but his brain was still stuck in the prehistoric age. In short, he was an utter moron.

However, Veronica didn’t want to continue arguing, so she leaned against the window and remained silent as she closed her eyes.

At that point, the car descended into silence.

Finally, they arrived at the underground parking site of the Twilight Club. The two of them subsequently got out of the car and walked into the elevator, one after the other.

Thomas handed over the keys to Matthew before driving his own car back home. The former adamantly refused to get involved in the matters of the bickering couple.

In the confined space of the elevator, Veronica tried her hardest to squeeze herself into a corner to maintain as much distance from Matthew as she could. Every move she made clearly indicated her loathing for him.

“Why are you standing so far apart from me?”

Meanwhile, Matthew, who was standing ramrod straight, glanced at her with a frown and there was a significantly displeased look on his handsome face.

“I’m keeping my distance because I need to stay away from people like you. Idiotic behavior can be contagious,” Veronica casually commented as she lifted her brows.

Matthew’s expression instantly darkened the moment he heard that.

Just then, he reached out and pulled her toward him. Then, he held her captive in his arms as he growled, “Why don’t you try repeating that again?”

Veronica struggled to get out of his embrace but despite her struggles, she couldn’t seem to extricate herself from his tight hold.

In the end, after realizing that her efforts were futile, she decided not to struggle unnecessarily.

And so, she looked up and glared at him. “I said I need to stay away from people like you.”

“What about your next sentence?”

“Idiotic behavior can be contagious.”
