Chapter 780 Fortunately, It's You
The soft mattress trembled slightly as Matthew's heavy breathing filled the room. His voice was strained as he said, "Mary, when you wake up, you can't pretend this didn't happen."
Mary didn't hear a word he said; instead, she kissed him passionately.
Matthew's voice was muffled and low, "If you don't say anything, I'll take that as a yes."
The night passed in a blur of passion.
The next morning.
Mary opened her eyes and found herself in an unfamiliar place. She sat up abruptly, a chill running through her as the blanket slipped off her body. She looked down and her face turned pale.
Her last memory was hearing Robert say she had been drugged.
But after that, everything was a blank.
The current situation made it clear—had she slept with Robert?
Oh my God!
How could this happen?
How could this happen?
Yesterday was Robert's wedding!
She...
Mary stared blankly ahead, tears the size of peas suddenly streaming down her face, her small face as white as a sheet, filled with despair.
At that moment, the door opened, and a familiar figure walked in.
"Why are you crying?"
Matthew walked in and saw her sitting on the bed, silently crying. He frowned and came over to ask.
Did she find it so hard to accept that they had slept together without her consent?
Was she crying out of sadness?
Matthew's thin lips pressed together.
Mary blinked lightly, looking at Matthew's handsome, sharp face, her voice barely audible.
"It was you?"
Matthew gazed at her and said, "Last night was sudden, and there wasn't time to get to a hospital. I had to bring you here. If you're upset, you can yell at me all you want."
A pang of pain hit his heart.
But he had to endure it.
He was becoming more and more certain that nothing was more important than her.
When she cried, it broke his heart.
Mary suddenly hugged him, sobbing uncontrollably.
Matthew was taken aback. "Mary, what's wrong?"
What kind of reaction was this?
Why couldn't he understand?
"Thank God it was you, Matthew. Thank God it was you," Mary choked out.
She couldn't imagine what she would have done if she had slept with Robert!
Knowing it was him last night, all her despair vanished, and she felt like she had come back to life!
Matthew understood why Mary was crying.
He hugged her and said, "Do you think I would let another man get close to you?"
Mary cried, but her emotions gradually stabilized. With red-rimmed eyes, she said, "I was drugged. Did you catch the culprit?"
Matthew nodded, "I just got word. We've got a lead. Do you want to go check it out?"
"Yes."
Mary nodded. As the victim, she had to find out who was behind this!
It wasn't just about her; it involved the Williams family, the Bailey family, and the Montagu family!
If this got out, the consequences would be unimaginable!
Matthew wiped the tears from her cheeks and said, "Then go freshen up, have some breakfast, and we'll head to the hotel together."
"Okay."
Mary nodded and was about to get up, but then she remembered she was wearing nothing but the marks of last night's passion. She felt a bit embarrassed.
Matthew chuckled, "Feeling shy?"
Mary avoided his gaze.
Matthew handed her a robe, "Go freshen up. I'll wait outside."
