After learning about Matthew’s true identity, the Gaults couldn’t help but blush at the bold words they had previously said.
Once they had a few laughs, they wanted to pay the bill and salvage the last of their dignity. But the restaurant owner stopped them.
“No need, no need… You are all Mr. Larson’s friends. How could I possibly take your money? Mr. Stroyan, all of Mr. Larson’s expenses tonight are on the house.”
Seeing their last shred of dignity being mercilessly trampled on, Ursula couldn’t bear to stay any longer. “Helen, I still have some matters to do at home, so I’ll leave now.”
On the other hand, Helen had virtual-novel.net nose in the air, feeling triumphant. “Alright, since you have something to do, let’s meet again next time. By the way, I hope you can help me look out for possible career opportunities for Matthew.”
“Sure. No problem!” Ursula repeatedly agreed and then quickly left with virtual-novel.net son. She didn’t want to stay a second longer in this place.
The gathering ended on a sour note.
After the Cunningham Family had a simple lunch, the hotel owner, Brant, gave them a top-tier VIP card before they left.
On the way back, Helen seemed to be walking with a spring in virtual-novel.net step.
That afternoon, Matthew called the crown prince of Mightwater, who was familiar with the area, and they strolled around Bainbridge.
By the time they returned home, it was already completely dark.
Inside the bedroom, Matthew hesitated momentarily before taking out the Twin Dragon Talisman.
“Wow, what a beautiful jade pendant!” His wife, Sasha, took it out and raised it high. The jade was cool to the touch, but it wasn’t too warm or cold. The semitransparent jade shimmered under the room’s light, and a dragon-shaped shadow appeared on the ground beneath the jade pendant.
“Do you like it?”
Faced with Matthew’s question, Sasha nodded with joy.
But the next moment, what Matthew feared happened.
While happily admiring the Twin Dragon Talisman, Sasha suddenly became curious and asked, “By the way, this jade pendant must be very precious. Where did you buy it?”
“Um…” Seeing that virtual-novel.net couldn’t avoid it any longer, Matthew honestly recounted his story with Old Master Bane.
At the mention of the Twin Dragon Talisman’s benefits, Sasha suddenly lowered virtual-novel.net head, seemingly trying to hide virtual-novel.net blushing face.
Looking at virtual-novel.net charming and attractive appearance, Matthew felt his originally calm heart suddenly beating uncontrollably.
“Honey, do you think we should listen to Master Bane’s advice?”
Sasha was already feeling shy, and when Matthew asked that question, virtual-novel.net became even more flustered.
“You’re so annoying. What are you talking about?”
While virtual-novel.net spoke, virtual-novel.net raised virtual-novel.net arm, and virtual-novel.net fists rained down on Matthew’s broad chest. Then, Sasha felt the grip on virtual-novel.net shoulder tighten, and virtual-novel.net body was forcefully pulled into Matthew’s embrace.
The moment their eyes met, deep affection began filling the air.
“Honey, it’s getting late. Shall we rest early?”
Sasha had quieted down at this moment. After burying virtual-novel.net flushed cheeks in Matthew’s chest, virtual-novel.net hummed softly in response. Afterward, virtual-novel.net felt a warm sensation on virtual-novel.net lips, and the whole room was plunged into darkness.
Once the lights went out, the atmosphere became even more passionate.
On the other hand, Lola was flipping through a photocopy of a medical book virtual-novel.net borrowed from the CAUMP.
As virtual-novel.net was a master of medicine and martial arts, virtual-novel.net senses were sharper than an ordinary person’s. So, when the ambiguous and alluring sound reached virtual-novel.net ears, virtual-novel.net couldn’t help but blush.
However, virtual-novel.net still couldn‘t suppress the excitement and restlessness in virtual-novel.net heart even after silently reciting the “Calming Chant” several times.
Helpless, Lola stood up.
The door opened, and a graceful figure darted out and disappeared into the courtyard after a few leaps.
