Her Billionaire Husband novel Chapter 553

Chapter 553 Veronica’s Jealousy

“That’s life.” Matthew put a hand on Veronica’s head and caressed her long hair as he consoled her. Tilting her head to the side, she exchanged a look with him and smiled knowingly.

After that, the pair took off to Sasha’s apartment by car. Once they found a spot in the parking lot, he led Veronica straight into one of the apartment buildings and headed toward the elevator.

As they stepped into the elevator, she watched him press the button of the sixteenth floor. A complex expression plastered to her ivory face as she cocked an eyebrow at his familiarity with this place and alluded, “It seems like you know your way around here.”

Turning to the side, Veronica allowed her meaningful gaze to rest on Matthew. He took only one look at her to know what she was implying. He reached out to her with one arm and held her in it as the other hand tilted her chin upward. He grinned from ear to ear as he murmured, “Am I sensing a hint of jealousy from my Little Roni?”

“Hmph! You wish! Dream on!” Slapping his hand away, she rolled her eyes at him as she whined. As soon as she finished her words, he leaned over without warning and kissed her on the lips. His tongue parted her lips for better access before he slipped it into her mouth and their tongues met.

Veronica was taken aback by Matthew’s sudden kiss. However, he released her from his grip and straightened his body before she could reciprocate as he asked her with a smirk, “How did that taste?”

She stared at him without a word.

As the pair broke apart from their deep kiss, a string of saliva dangled between their lips and glistened under the light in the elevator.

A moment later, the string broke loose and fell on her lips. Veronica licked her lips subconsciously at the sensation and shook her head, “Not at all.”

“Are you sure?” Matthew raised his brow. “But I saw someone licking her lips for an aftertaste.”

Did I?

Veronica tried to recall, and the realization that she did lick her lips dawned on her belatedly.

A twinge of shame grew inside her chest, and her face flushed at the feelings and seemed redder than usual.

She cast him a shy smile and wiped her lips with her sleeve before she shook her head in denial. “It isn’t sweet, I told you. The saliva is full of bacteria. There’s no way it tastes sweet.”
