After recalling all the moves that Master Crayson had taught her before, her reflexes became faster, and her physical abilities improved significantly.
Veronica heard footsteps and leaned over to kiss Matthew's lips. "Your men are here and I must go now," she said. "Take care of yourself, Matt."
"Okay, you too."
"Goodbye."
As Veronica rose to her feet, Matthew reluctantly held onto her hand. Their gaze locked on each other, and neither of them wanted to break away even for a second.
With a gentle smile, she walked to the edge of the bed and leaped into the darkness, disappearing from his sight. He followed suit, stood by the window, and overlooked the scene below as he watched the agile figure vanish into the night.
He suddenly felt that he was more akin to a "young darling wife," but he couldn't deny how much he enjoyed it!
The following day, Skyler from One Piece Restaurant finally regained consciousness. At the same time, Mateo, who was staying at the hospital, was transferred from the ICU to a regular ward in the early morning hours.
After having breakfast early in the morning, Veronica went to the hospital with Master Crayson to visit Mateo.
"Hey, Mat, feeling any better?" Veronica asked with a smile while she placed a fruit basket on the bedside table.
The conscious Mateo was momentarily stunned, his brow furrowed as he looked at Veronica in disbelief. "Y-You remembered everything?" he asked in puzzlement. After all, if she didn't remember him, how could she have recalled his nickname "Mat"?
