Matthew grabbed her wrist and pressed her against the bed. "You can stay here if you want from now on. I only came here to sleep with you. Whether the children are doing well or not has nothing to do with you anymore."

"Oh really? Didn't you say that you already divorced me? Then why do you have to come and sleep with me?" Erica asked. 'He must have lied to me about the divorce.

Since he keeps on coming here to see me again and again, he must still love me.' As these thoughts came to her mind, she wrapped her arms around his neck happily and waited for his answer.

She wasn't aware that her natural fragrance had already turned him on. "Do I need a reason to sleep with a woman?"

"It's either you are a masochist, or you have a quirk. There are so many beautiful women in Y City, but you came all the way to Tow Village just to sleep with me. Matthew, are you still in love with me?" They both knew very well the distance between Tow Village and Y City.

Instead of answering her question, he lowered his head to kiss her on the lips to hide his embarrassment.

She was overjoyed. His actions clearly implied that he still loved her, and it wasn't true that he divorced her.

The next morning, while Erica was still asleep, an earthshaking event happened in the village.

The sirens of the police cars had awakened her. As she turned over in the bed, she found out that the man who made love to her the whole night wasn't there anymore.

Upon realizing that she was the only one in the room again, she abruptly sat up on the bed.

She put on her pajamas casually and got out of bed in a hurry to look for Matthew. However, as soon as she stood up, her legs felt very weak that she sank back into bed.

'Oh, my God!' she exclaimed silently, wincing in pain.

She clearly knew that Matthew had come to her with anger for the second time. He had surely given her a hard time. Looking down at the marks on her body, she couldn't help but frown. 'Oh, how humiliating! Never mind. I'll just change my clothes first.'

After putting on a set of clothes that hid her hickeys, she went out of the room. In the yard, she saw a man and a woman staring at each other with Owen expressionlessly standing next to them.

Chantel, who was in a cold sweat, finally felt a little relaxed upon seeing Erica coming out of the house. But since Matthew's cold eyes were still on her, she coul

lean white hand on the ground a few times, then rubbed her soiled hand to her face. In an instant, she looked like a different person.

Seeing her dirtied face, Kirk recognized her at a glance.

His memory immediately traveled back to three years ago. He had an illegal transaction in Kwan City at that time, but the police discovered him. To avoid being arrested, he casually pulled a pregnant woman who happened to be standing next to him and made her a scapegoat. But he remembered that the woman was not put in jail. Instead, the police arrested another man.

Knowing what he was thinking, Erica nodded and said, "Yes, I was not arrested at that time. Instead, my good friend Orange shouldered the consequences of your evilness!" Orange was one of the members of the idol group, FC. She met him in a hotel when she was on a business trip with Matthew back then.

"Then what happened to him?" Kirk asked eagerly.

Hatred flashed across Erica's eyes as she said, "He... died." Yes, Orange had a heart attack and died inside the prison.

During that incident, he happened to be with her. She was about to give birth at that time, so her belly was already very big. He couldn't afford to watch his pregnant friend being held by a group of people holding daggers against her neck, so he went out and took the blame for them.

At first, they thought that he wouldn't stay long in jail. After all, he was innocent. The police wouldn't be able to find any evidence against him, so he would definitely be released immediately.

However, something happened to him before he could be released.
