Veronica only asked Skylar to bring Miguel over to put on a show, in the hopes that Matthew would eventually hear about it.
However, Matthew was there.
In this case, I must really put on an act before Matthew.
"You... Miss Murphy, please have some self-respect," Miguel said as he reached out to grab the key.
However, Veronica hid the key behind her, not wanting to give it to Miguel. "Am I disrespecting myself by pursuing someone I love? You must have failed your comprehension test during your school days."
"I... You..."
Miguel stammered. At that point, he was sweating profusely.
He glanced at Veronica and Matthew, and Miguel felt a chill run down his back upon noticing Matthew's terrifying gaze.
Gulping, Miguel answered in a resigned tone, "Fine, you win. I can't afford to anger you, but I can hide."
After speaking, he moved from the driver's seat to the passenger's seat and was about to leave.
Veronica turned around and planned to go to the other side of the car to stop Miguel.
However, Matthew stopped her path, and he did not plan to move an inch.
Frowning in displeasure, Veronica raised her head and met his eyes. Still, she didn't speak and chose to go around to the left.
However, when she went left, he went left and when she went right, he went right as well.
Veronica was annoyed that she was blocked, so she ordered in a cold voice, "Get out of the way."
Matthew put his hands in his pockets and looked down at Veronica from his upright position. His dark gaze was like an unpredictable abyss.
He remained silent.
Veronica pursed her lips and frowned. "I told you to get out of the way.
Didn't you hear me?"
Why is he deliberately blocking my way ? Could it be that Matthew is still in love with me? Bah, who am I kidding?! He loves Sasha right from the start. F*cking
cheater.
"No."
After a long silence, Matthew said a word.
"Are you trying to pick a fight?"
"Miguel is my good friend. You are disturbing a good friend of mine, so I can't just sit back and ignore what is going on."
Matthew spoke in an orderly manner.
Those words are reasonable.
"Is he your biological brother, then?"
Veronica snarled, then continued, "He's not your family, don't interfere with us."
The scene had everyone's attention, but they wisely chose to watch silently and not intervene.
Although Veronica had broken up with Matthew, their relationship was delicate and hard to fathom.
"I treat him as my own brother."
"Hal Is that so?"
Hearing his words, Veronica grinned. "You say that, but do you want to sleep with your brother too? You already have Sasha, yet you still want to cheat on her and get together with Miguel too?"
