Chapter 749 He’s Jealous
Well, he was the son of Tanya, after all. Of course he was proud. “You’re not even that old, Liam. Stay
away from her, or you’re gonna have a knuckle sandwich feast.” Liam was starting to get a little
aggressive.
Veronica had to reevaluate her opinion of him. She had thought he was just a nice, nerdy guy who
couldn’t fight, but now he seemed to be quite impulsive.
“Lay a finger on me, and you’re gonna get it.” “Your mother is nothing, Liam. She’s not gonna be the
clan leader for long.”

she went downstairs, Hendrey handed her the bracelet again. “Keep it. I don’t take back any gifts I give
out.”
Veronica looked at the bracelet and refused, “No.” She left the tea shop without even saying goodbye,
but when she came home, she didn’t see Mateo anywhere.
Crayson asked, “Why are you alone? Where’s Mateo?”
“He ran into a friend, so they’re having a chat,” she gave an excuse and looked at the kitchen, ignoring
what Crayson was saying. She could hear Matthew cooking inside and she wanted to take a look, but
she went upstairs for fear of getting found out.
A while later, someone knocked on her door. “Time to eat, Miss Veronica.”
Matthew. Veronica’s heart leaped with delight when she heard his voice. She quickly opened the door,
and he came in right away. He wrapped his arm around her waist and pinned her against the door.
Then he bit her lip.
She gasped from the pain and thumped his chest. “Are you mad? They might find out.”
“Don’t worry. They’re yelling at your little bodyguard.”
“What do you mean?” Veronica was confused.
He raised her chin. “You’re one charismatic woman. You just came to the clan, and already two men
are fighting over you. I feel insecure, so what should I do?”
There was complaint and frustration in his voice, and Veronica wanted to laugh, but she felt for him.
She puffed her cheeks and grinned. “Nope. I just met Liam today, and he’s getting ideas about me. It’s

“Is that so?” He cocked his eyebrow. He didn’t look as handsome as he used to under that disguise. In
fact, he looked inconspicuous, but the air around him was still indisputably and obviously imposing.
“Of course.” She wrapped her arms around his neck and kissed him. “He’s not even a tenth of the man
you are.”
“Really? Can you elaborate?” He smirked.
“Not much to elaborate. He’s bad in every aspect?”
“Is that so?” he purred. “You’ve only just met him, but you already know he’s bad in every aspect? How
come you never told me you’re a clairvoyant?”
Was that some joke? Veronica got the innuendo, and she said, “I’ll tell you tonight, but you need to
leave now, or they’ll find us out.” She pushed him away and opened the door so he could leave.
