The Life Of A Billionaires Wife

Chapter 197

“Looks like I need to purchase two life premiums when I return,” Matthew teased next to her ear.

Although he was clearly teasing her, she somehow felt that he was flirting with her. Indeed, this jerk is up to no good at all.

“Hey, can you keep some distance?”

Despite him being gorgeous and was the ideal man of thousands of girls in . Bloomstead, Veronica was an exception. Like a tough woman with a built-in barrier, she instinctively blocked all of his moves on her and wouldn’t fall for them.

In order to get a better view of the road ahead, Matthew tilted his body to the side a little, whereupon Veronica freed up her left hand and jabbed backward strongly, hitting him right in the chest with her elbow.

Even with the whistling sound in her ears, she could still hear his gasp.

“Don’t fool around. It’s dangerous.”

After all, they were riding on a motorcycle and even though he was in pain, he didn’t release his grip on the handlebars.

His voice was low and husky, and it sounded utterly seductive. Although his tone was a little strict, as though he was reprimanding her gently, there was also a trace of unwillingness in his voice.

Veronica’s heart skipped a beat and started to pound against her chest, throbbing without a reason. Damn him and his charm!

“Stop, stop!” she cried out immediately as she wanted him to stop the motorbike.

“Sit still. I’m taking you home.”

“Who says I wanted to go home? I don’t want to go home.”

“What? Are you planning to sleep on the streets tonight?” His face turned a little, and he glanced at the woman in his arms, whispering into her ear, “It’s already 3.00AM.”

“I don’t want to sleep. I can’t sleep,” she said in a spoiled manner and snorted softly.

It was true that she couldn’t fall asleep.
