There were techniques for two people to mingle well with each other, but sadly, Heather and Matthias knew none of it. It would sometimes be better if one of them could change the way that they spoke, but they always ended up bickering with each other.
Before they could even have dinner, their moods were already unpleasant. They had already lost their appetite by that moment and were now staring at each other in an awkward atmosphere.
“Send me home to the Langston Residence.” Heather wasn’t in the mood to eat and she didn’t want to stay with him a minute longer.
Meanwhile, Matthias looked regretful as he realized that his tone was a little out of order earlier. Even if she wasn’t a whiny girl, she would still be infuriated when he didn’t properly answer her question. “It’s almost time for dinner. I’ll send you back after we have eaten something.” He tried to change her mind so that she would stay.
“No.” She immediately rejected. After what had happened in the past two days, she didn’t have the appetite to eat anything and sudden thoughts in her head didn’t help to improve her mood either.
Upon seeing her determination to leave, he didn’t continue to force her to stay, so he sent her home. At least she lets me send her back home, which means she is not that angry with me.
Heather had remained silent on the journey, so Matthias tried to start a conversation with her. However, all of his attempts were shot down by the frosty look of her face. Whenever her expression became cold, it felt as though the temperature had instantly dropped—like the chill came from her body.
In his heart, he had regretted what he said earlier. I can’t believe I’m arguing with her because of Lara. Looks like the tiny conflicts in life are inevitable.
“Heather.” As they were about to arrive at the Langston Residence, he couldn’t help but softly call her.
“Yes,” Heather flatly replied.
“Are you still angry at me?” Matthias asked worryingly. Compared to her frosty looks, he would rather face her anger because he was terrified of her at the moment.
While looking outside the window with an emotionless face, she responded casually, “Why would I be?” However, her reply had only fueled the anxiety inside his heart.
“Heather, I know that I was wrong. Please don’t be like this, okay?” He had no choice but to apologize to her even if he didn’t think that he had done something wrong. There’s no wrong in apologizing to her.
However, Heather then turned around and revealed a cold smile as she immediately saw through Matthias’ thoughts.
“You don’t need to apologize to me. You did nothing wrong. I was just being unreasonable,” she murmured in a way that didn’t seem like she was an unreasonable person.
“Heather, I admit that I shouldn’t have spoken to you in that way. Please don’t be angry at me, alright?” As he thought about it, he realized that his tone was different than usual when he spoke to her.
“Matthias, do you feel aggrieved when you are with me?” she suddenly asked. She felt that it was unfair that the president of the Locke Group was so dejected in front of her all the time.
However, Matthias looked at her in confusion as he couldn’t understand her question. In fact, he never felt aggrieved whenever he was together with her, but he sometimes just couldn’t understand why she was angry at him.
“Forget about it. Your eyes have told me everything.” Heather rolled her eyes at him while calming down a little inside her heart. Even though she knew that she shouldn’t be angry at him today, she still took his love for granted.
At the moment, he wanted to look into a mirror to see what was happening with his eyes. Since he felt that she wasn’t that angry anymore, it was a good thing.
“Just take the left turn ahead.” Heather noticed that Matthias was in a daze, so she kindly reminded him.
His expression suddenly changed as he didn’t expect to reach her home this soon, so he regretted it a little since he wanted to be with her for a while. At the same time, he was also frustrated at himself for not taking the initiative to talk to her in the beginning. Why did I start to talk to her when we are almost arriving at her house?
Therefore, he stopped the car all of a sudden and placed both his hands on the steering wheel. Then, he turned toward Heather and stared at her in a way that made her want to just jump out of the car.
After that, Matthias approached her and kissed her lips. She didn’t expect the sudden kiss at all, but she didn’t dislike it either. Instead, she felt especially secured when his aura completely engulfed her body at that moment.
“Heather, whenever I look at you, I feel that I can’t bring myself to leave you.” She could see the reluctance in his eyes.
“Stop fooling around,” Heather uttered softly. Her face was now slightly blushed as she didn’t know how to respond to him.
Matthias still refused to start the car again and the distance between the two of them was so close that they could practically hear the other person’s breath. When she heard his heavy breathing, she suddenly had the urge to push him away and hug him at the same time, which was contradictory.
“Heather.” He placed his head on her shoulder while speaking in an extremely loving tone.
“Matthias, stop this.” Heather couldn’t hold on much longer.
“Heather, please don’t be mad at me. I know that I always say the wrong words and I can’t say anything to please you.” Just like a naughty kid, he continued to murmur while reflecting on himself.
