Chapter 517 Want to Do Something More Interesting
Mary changed her shoes and walked in, immediately catching Matthew's indifferent gaze.
She didn't speak and went to get a glass of water first.
Footsteps sounded behind her.
Just as Mary put the glass on the table, she felt a tight grip on her shoulder, and Matthew turned her around directly.
His tall figure loomed over her, his almond-shaped eyes staring deeply into hers as he asked in a low voice, "What did you mean by what you said earlier?"
Mary pushed his hand away and stepped aside to maintain a safe distance from him. She didn't think their current relationship warranted such intimacy.
She said calmly, "Announcing now is not beneficial to my plan."
Matthew was a bit displeased with her evasion, but upon hearing her words, his handsome eyebrows raised as he asked, "What plan?"
Mary replied, "It's confidential."
Matthew, however, said, "If you don't give me a reason to convince me, why should I agree to your terms?"
Mary stood on the stairs, holding the railing with one hand, and turned to look at him, her tone very calm, "You don't have to agree, and neither do I."
With a cold attitude, she went straight upstairs after speaking.
Matthew was silent.
His face became utterly expressionless.
Mary, how dare she threaten him!
He took a few steps forward and grabbed her before she could enter the room, saying in a deep voice, "Mary, you seem to be unclear about the situation. Whether it's the people pulling the strings or what you're going through this time, it's all aimed at you. I can ignore."
Mary's heart sank, "So, what do you mean? If you care, I should be grateful and obey you, right?"
Matthew's face also darkened, "Mary, can't you distinguish right from wrong?"
Mary shook off his hand. "Matthew, you say all these things are aimed at me, but before I met you, my life was very peaceful!"
Anger appeared in her eyes, like a calm lake into which a stone had been thrown, stirring up waves!
She took several deep breaths, trying to calm down, "Matthew, this time we are cooperating. I don't owe you anything. If you can't accept the conditions I proposed, then let's end this cooperation!"
After all, she didn't want to have too many entanglements with him!
As soon as she finished speaking, she turned to leave!
But Matthew grabbed her and pulled her into his arms, holding her tightly!
"Mary, I want to strangle you!"
He said in a deep voice, but he didn't do it.
He couldn't bring himself to do it!
Mary struggled for a while, "Let go of me."
Matthew, however, shamelessly said, "We have to act, and intimacy is essential. You need to get used to it soon!"
Mary frowned, thinking he was crazy!
She couldn't break free and gave up struggling, and her emotions calmed down.
After a long while, she asked coldly, "Had enough of hugging?"
Matthew replied, "Not enough. I don't just want to hug you; I want to kiss you and do something more interesting."
Mary's expression became even more indifferent.
Finally, Matthew began to let her go, but he still took the opportunity to kiss her forehead. Seeing the indifference in her eyes, the corners of his thin lips curved into a faint smile, "Go take a shower."
With that, he turned and went straight into the study.
