Beg him?
Of course, Clarissa knew what Matthew wanted.
But she decided to just clasp her hands and said, “Please!”
Matthew’s eyes darkened. He squinted and kept his gaze fixed on her.
She looked at him with a pair of puppy eyes and begged, “Please? I won’t be able to explain myself if Ellie sees you here.”
Like a cat on hot bricks, Clarissa was worried that Ellie might bump into Matthew if he refused to leave.
She even walked up to him and pushed him on the shoulders, trying to get him out of the house.
Instead of pushing him away, Clarissa was tugged at and fell right on his thighs. A blush warmed her cheeks instantly. She tried to get up but to no avail as Matthew had wrapped his hand around the back of her neck.
He then pulled her face towards his and gave her a deep kiss. Clarissa could only helplessly grunt and struggle in frustration. Ellie was going to be here soon, and she was at her wits’ end.
Even when Matthew decided to release her from his clutches, he still insisted on giving her several pecks on the lips and running his thumb all over them.
He gave out a baffling smile and said in a deep voice, “This is how you beg.”
Clarissa was annoyed, but she did not have the time to argue with him anymore. “All right. Please go now, okay?”
Matthew finally gave in. He released her and stood up from the couch. Clarissa followed right behind and pushed him with her hands.
Having only a towel wrapped around his body, Matthew’s body emitted a warmth that caused Clarissa to retract her hands.
After putting on the clothes he wore earlier, he knitted his brows as if he was disgusted by the fact that he had to wear the same clothes after a shower.
It was none of Clarissa’s business anyway, as she just wanted him gone right now.
She even walked him to the elevator. “Quick! Make sure you don’t bump into Ellie!”
Matthew remained calm and steady. The more he looked at the woman in panic mode, the more he realized how adorable she was. He could not help but grin.
The minute the door opened, Clarissa pushed him into the elevator. She then smiled at him and waved goodbye to him.
“Goodbye, Uncle Matthew!”
Before the door closed completely, he extended his arm and pulled her into the elevator. He then wrapped his arms around her and gave her a deep kiss.
Some said Matthew practiced abstinence. Even when a naked woman stood in front of him, he would not bother to look at her. Yet, the way he behaved now seemed to contravene these remarks.
As a victim of his bestial behavior, Clarissa could not wait to expose his true colors to the world.
Abstinence my foot! He’s more like a kissing maniac!
Clarissa finally managed to push him away before the elevator’s door opened.
When the door was completely opened, a voice emerged from outside, “Clare? Uncle Matt? What are you two…”
“Hey, I came down to fetch you, and it just so happened that Uncle Matthew is here too.”
Clarissa was hit by a pang of guilt and she hoped that Matthew could step in to rescue her. She plastered an awkward smile on her face and said, “Yeah, I was surprised to see Uncle Matthew here too.”
“Oh? Is that so, Uncle Matt?”
Ellie felt something was amiss. Though Matthew still appeared to be as upright as ever, there was something sensuous about the way he stood and the way he looked at things at that point in time.
Even Ellie herself could not help but feel embarrassed standing in front of him.
“I’m here to visit a friend.”
Matthew put on a deadpan expression and walked out of the elevator.
Before leaving, he turned around and took a sidelong glance at Clarissa with his deep dark eyes.
Ellie still had so many questions in her mind. What kind of friend did he visit, though? And what’s with the look on his face?
Does he have a secret lover who lives here?
Is it the girl whom he held hands with?
Is she staying in this building?
