Chapter 43
In the end, Matthew went to take a cold shower. There were definitely going to be more situations like this in the future.
After taking a shower, he came out of the bathroom and wiped his hair with a towel. He said to Lucy, who was obediently sitting on his bed, “Go wash up.”
Hearing that, Lucy felt like she had been pardoned. She quickly got up and rushed to the bathroom.
While Lucy was washing up, the phone on the bed rang.
It was the phone Lucy brought into Matthew’s room when she came in last night.
Matthew picked up the phone and saw the caller ID ‘Mom‘ displayed on the screen. His good mood that morning was instantly ruined.
Instead of answering, he turned down the volume and sat calmly on the edge of the bed.
In the bathroom, Lucy was unknowingly tending to her hair. She cried so much yesterday that her hair got tangled.
Lucy tried for a long time, but she still could not untangle the matted mess. In the end, she gave up and decided to wash her hair.
The unanswered phone call stopped ringing.
Matthew smirked in satisfaction, but the phone immediately started ringing again as if Melanie was not going to give in.
Since Lucy was still busy washing up, Matthew glanced at the phone and decided to answer it.
As soon as he picked up the call, he heard insults coming from the
other end of the phone. “You brat! I can’t believe you had the audacity to hang up on me last night!”
Matthew frowned without saying anything.
Even with his lack of response, the person on the other end did not stop. “You’ve been out on the streets for so many days. It’s about
time you come home.
“Come back home now and divorce that stranger immediately. Do you hear me?!
“Why aren’t you speaking?”
The silence lasted for so long that Melanie urged Lucy to say something. She wanted to hear a satisfactory answer from her.
However, Matthew was the one who spoke. “She’s in the shower.”
The other end of the phone went silent all of a sudden, and Matthew immediately hung up without waiting for Melanie to respond.
He opened up Lucy’s call history to delete the records of her missed calls and previous phone calls. He also blocked Melanie’s number. He did not want to put Lulu in a bad mood early in the morning! NôvelDrama.Org: text © owner.
After doing all of that, he put her phone back in its original position.
“I’m done too.”
Lucy walked out and looked at Matthew strangely when she realized he had not changed.
“Matt, why haven’t you changed yet? Do you not want to go out and have breakfast? Do you want me to bring you some?”
Matthew smiled devilishly.
“You want me to change here?”
Lucy blushed and said, “You rascal!” Then, she ran out in her pajamas.
After watching her run out, Matthew began to change his clothes.
When he was done, Lucy was already waiting outside the door.
He raised his eyebrows and said, “You don’t seem to take very long to get dressed like other women.”
“It seems like you’ve waited for many other women since you know how long it takes for women to get dressed,” Lucy’s tone was full of jealousy.
Matthew knew what she was thinking. He smiled and pinched her nose before holding her hand.
“Don’t be jealous. Let’s go have breakfast.”
