Take My Breath Away

Tears welled up in Erica's red eyes again. Her lips quivered as she complained to the man standing in front of her with a long face. "Why are you scolding me?" Erica was already having a hard time dealing with Ethan's departure.

Matthew stood in stunned silence, his mouth agape at Erica's reaction. Was he not supposed to scold her? Was he not supposed to be angry at her? "Then what do you think I should do to you?" he asked. 'Should I just sit by and watch her get close to another man?'

Erica's eyes and nose were red from crying. She wiped away her tears and said, "We haven't seen each other for a week. Don't you miss me?" She missed having him around, especially since she had been sleeping alone.

Needless to say, Matthew missed her as well. Why else would he end his trip one day earlier and return to his home country in such a hurry? Why else did he rush home instead of going to the company as soon as he got off the plane?

Erica, however, didn't expect him to say that he missed her. Perhaps, the woman he missed was Phoebe. In any case, she was determined to push that woman out of his heart. "Come here!" she ordered the man.

Matthew couldn't believe his ears. Where did she get the audacity to speak to him like that? How dare she raise her voice to him? Nonetheless, he took a step forward.

"Lower your head!" she ordered again.

'She's ordering me again!' Despite the anger, he humored Erica again as he looked down at her in confusion.

"What are you looking at? Kiss me now!" 'Isn't that what a couple is supposed to do after they see each for the first time in days? I see other couples hugging and kissing each other when they meet again after a long time. Why is my case any different?' Erica wondered.

She soon came to realize what the reason was. 'Matthew is just a cold and arrogant man!'

Without saying a word, Matthew held the woman in his arms and lowered his head to kiss her red lips.

In truth, this was what he had in mind the whole time. If only he hadn't become so furious after seeing her with Watkins.

However, Erica couldn't stop thinking about Ethan and she kept on sobbing silently.

Tears streamed down her cheeks and stopped at the spot where their lips locked. The salt from her tears spread inside their mouths and Matthew immediately loosened his grip on the woman, with a worried look in his eyes. "Did I hurt you?"

"No... I was just think of Ethan again. I'm sorry..." Erica couldn't control her emotions anymore.

Matthew sighed helplessly. "If you cry again, I'll have someone bring Ethan back right now. I'll also make sure t

Drugged one night by her ex-boyfriend, a mysterious man took advantage of her in an ecstatic night filled with sex.

To take her revenge, she married the man, and used him.

"As long as I'm alive, I'm still his legal wife, while all of you are just his mistresses."

She remained adamant even when he was involved in scandals with other women.

Eventually she stormed off after she learned that he had betrayed her again.But life brought her back to him a few years later, to his astonishment.

ow.

Matthew took a deep breath and said calmly, "Think about why I'm glaring at you!"

"I'm not a mind reader. How can I know what you are thinking?"

Erica finally realized how easy it was for them to break into an argument with each other.

Matthew was utterly frustrated by her attitude. "Erica, how many wives do I have?"

She blinked at him with confusion. Why did he suddenly ask her this? Why was he asking her such a silly question? She answered impatiently, "One!"

"Who is it?"

She blinked again and asked cautiously, "Have you finally lost your mind? Why are you asking so much nonsense?"

Matthew felt helpless. It was as if nothing was going right for him today. His wife was busy acting so foolishly that she couldn't even understand that the gift was for her! "Is there a problem with a man giving his wife nice things?"

"No problem!"

"Since there is no problem, just keep it! Please!"

After a moment's silence, Erica was convinced. "So, you really bought this for me?"

"Who else could it be for?" he replied impatiently.

With a big grin on her face, Erica held the perfume bottle and said, "Then just tell me frankly. Just say you brought me a gift. Why did you have to ruin such a nice moment by saying something so stupid?" Wasn't Matthew always straightforward and efficient? What was wrong with him today? Why was he beating around the bush?

'He's just so arrogant!' she thought.

Matthew unbuckled his belt and looked at her coldly. "My fault?" Was he wrong to give her a gift?

Erica swallowed nervously as she saw him take off his pants. Fascinated by what she was looking at, she shook her head in a hurry. "It's my fault." 'He's hot; he's the boss!' she exclaimed in her mind.
