As Veronica leaned against the door, she looked at him with wide eyes. "Hehe, what does this have to do with me?"
Unable to meet Matthew's gaze directly, she nervously turned her head to look elsewhere.
This was amazing, in a way.
Liam had already given her a headache; now Mateo had come along. Veronica felt overwhelmed.
"How does this not have anything to do with you?"
He leaned down and pressed his forehead against hers.
As the man suddenly approached, a sense of oppression overwhelmed Veronica, causing her breath to hitch.
With a strong will to survive, she shook her head. "It's their business if they like me. I only like you."
She looked up, her bright eyes gazing at him, the sincerity in her eyes making it hard to doubt.
"Oh?" Matthew raised an eyebrow. "Is this your confession to me?"
He was secretly elated.
"Not really." Veronica shook her head without hesitation.
"Why not?"
"I have liked you for a long time, and you already know that. Why else would I marry you? So, I'm just stating a fact, not confessing."
Veronica explained seriously, putting a smile on Matthew's face. "Is there a difference?" the man asked.
"Of course. It's a fundamental difference."
"So, are you trying to tell me that you liked me a long time ago but don't like me anymore?"
The series of questions made Veronica feel like Matthew was trying to catch her off guard.
"Not exactly. You are now the father of my two precious children. We are a family. Relatives."
"Only family bond, no romantic love?"
"Is there a difference?" This time, it was Veronica's turn to counter with a question.
