Take My Breath Away

Sitting across from her, Matthew had a clear view of what Erica was doing and did nothing to stop her. On the contrary, he just quietly observed as she washed the bowl and chopsticks she had used.

After a while, he suddenly asked, "When did you learn that?"

"Learn what?" Confused, Erica took a cloth and wiped the water she accidentally splashed near the sink.

"Washing the dishes." Before she left him, she wouldn't even get near the dishes, let alone wash them.

Erica thought about it for a moment before answering casually, "Well, Tessie couldn't handle everything on her own, especially after the children were born. So I had to help her, right? I learned a lot while I was away."

At that time, she soon realized that she wasn't really unable to do the housework. Given no other choice, she had to learn how to get by on her own, and so she did.

No matter how foolish she was, she could do some simple housework without any maids at her disposal.

Once she finished cleaning up the kitchen, Erica turned off the lights and stretched out her hand to the man who was still at the table. "Let's go upstairs and have some sleep!"

Matthew looked at her hand. It used to be so smooth, but now it had some calluses that weren't there before.

He met her eyes again and couldn't help getting a little angry. In a cold voice, he said, "Erica Li!"

"What?" Picking up on his anger, Erica was confused. Why did he suddenly get so mad to the point of calling her by her full name?

Rudely, he grabbed her hand and raised it to her eye level. "Look at your hand. It wasn't like this when you left me. Look at those calluses! I demand that you take care of your hands and have them healed in a month!"

Erica rubbed her hands together. She didn't notice that indeed they were covered with calluses until now.

"Even if I don't do the housework, I still have to use my camera," she answered dully. She couldn't get rid of her camera. She took pictures almost every day with it.

"Then don't take any pictures for the time being! And don't do any housework! Not until you get your smooth hands back!" he ordered.

For Erica, his overbearing behavior was a sign of the love he had for her.

So holding his neck, she coaxed him, "Okay, I'll do as you say. But don't be angry! It's just that the living conditions in Tow Village are not that good. I'll be fine now that I'm home."

"Since you are a

for half a month. Take care of... You know what? Never mind. I'm relieved now that you're with Mr. Huo." Chantel had become used to reminding Erica to take care of herself, but now that she was back with Matthew, she didn't need to do it any longer.

"Got it." Erica yawned again. "Then take care of yourself. Call me if you need anything."

"Okay, bye!"

After hanging up the phone, Erica lay back down in the bed. As soon as her head hit the pillow, she felt the weight of a heavy arm on her waist.

She quietly glanced back at Matthew and found that he still had his eyes closed. Unconcerned, she opened Weibo and began to browse the news of the day.

'Wait! It's already eight o'clock. Why is Matthew still asleep? He would always get up at five or six at the latest.

Has he developed the habit of sleeping late in the past few years?' she thought.

Before Erica could think it further, however, the word "hot" displayed on the screen and quickly grabbed her interest.

The topic "Mrs. Huo Came Back With Her Four Sons" was followed by the word "hot" all in red.

Below she found the topic named "Erica and Noreen" also followed by the word "hot."

And although this time the word "hot" didn't follow it, the topic "Erica and Lucia" could also be found on the list of the hottest news.

A reporter had also photographed Erica in her red evening dress on the ship.

Erica was glad to see that the photo had been filtered before it was posted. That woman in the photo looked much more attractive than she was in real life. Once she realized this, she hid beneath the quilt and snickered.
