Chapter 803 Mischief During Class
“As you wish, Miss Veronica,” said Matthew as he quirked a brow and smirked at Veronica—behind
Mateo’s back, of course.
Mateo, on the other hand, was feeling indignant. However, since it was an order from his grandfather,
he had no choice but to oblige. “Come on, let’s get moving,” said the young man exasperatedly.
“Hold on, let me get my stuff.” With that, Veronica headed back inside to grab her pen, notebook, and
study materials before following the two to the study.
The massive study was located on the west of the second floor, and it was filled with shelves full of
books of various genres from the hidden clan, Castron, Destor, and many other countries. There was
such a wide variety that it was practically a mini library.

which was fully furnished with a work desk and a couch among many other things. As two balconies
extended from the study, the room was exceptionally spacious.
“How are we going to study when there’s only one desk?” Veronica mumbled, then headed out into the
corridor to shout toward Crayson, who was chatting with Hayley on the first floor. “Master Crayson, I’m
studying with Iron. Can you please ask someone to bring another desk up?”
To that, the elder nodded. “Sure. Proceed with your lesson first, and I’ll have them bring it up in a bit.”
“Thanks,” said Veronica before returning to the study.
As there was only one desk available for now, Veronica beckoned Matthew to move things around.
“Let’s move the laptop aside first. Mateo can take the executive chair while we sit on the rattan chairs.”
“Will do.” Matthew nodded in acknowledgment, then proceeded to sort the desk out, which they
completed in no time.
While the couple sat next to each other, Mateo sat in the executive chair across from them with books
in his hands. “We learned how to pronounce the 26 alphabets yesterday, so we’re going to learn a few
simple words and dialogues today,” he said sternly, behaving like a teacher would as he tapped the
desk with a ruler and glanced icily at the couple. “Turn to page ten.”
“Okay,” answered Veronica as she flipped to page ten. Matthew obliged as well.
Natural sunlight shone in from the window as the couple recited their words out loud. For a moment, it
felt as though time had rewound to their school days.
After a long lesson, Mateo began feeling thirsty, and he put the book down, announcing, “Continue
memorizing the words while I get myself some water.”
“Alright, sir.”

calling him Mateo, distinguishing work and study very nicely.
With that, the young man headed out, closing the door behind him as he left.
As new words were introduced, Veronica tried to memorize them with agony, but Matthew closed her
book up suddenly. “Well, isn’t someone studious? No wonder you were a straight-A student.”
The young woman frowned upsettingly as she turned her head to Matthew, only to find his head
propped up against the desk with his right arm. Though his face looked average under the disguise, the
mediocrity couldn’t suppress his innate nobility.
“We’re in the middle of a class here. Focus. Otherwise, things will get very problematic if I still don’t
know hidden tongue,” Veronica chided, then mused, Can you please focus? What are you trying to do?
Lo and behold, Matthew put his left arm on her shoulder and pulled her into his arms while grabbing
her chin with his right to plant a kiss on her lips.
