Anna: “…”
Push her into the sea? She didn’t have the courage to do that.
In case Gresta was not ready in the fall into the water, he still had to go into the water to save her, and the bottom line was that … she could not swim by herself yet.
If he had not saved Gresta and she had died, she would have been guilty of murder.
This is a crime that Anna cannot afford, and her intention is to help people, not to harm them.
Even if Gresta had other intentions, Anna had no intention of taking revenge, at most she would stop dealing with her after resolving the issue.
“This woman is an old fox at first sight, and she has an immodest look in her eyes, it seemed to me that she wanted to eat you when she left, so you and your husband should be careful.”
“Yes, keep an eye on your husband, even wild flowers smell good to men, so you should keep an eye on him.”
Anna was surrounded by everyone and was so embarrassed that she could only smile, “Thank you everyone, I know.”
After that everyone gradually dispersed, but Anna was none too happy to return to Matteo’s side.
Because … had just lied.
She and Matteo were not really married, they had only been in a relationship for a short time, and what happened? She just pretended in front of Gresta that she was Mrs. Giordano, and she lied + acted.
Will Matteo… think that she is a woman playing games?
Of course, Anna is regretting it now, she shouldn’t have done that, right?
Just as Anna was torn between uncertainty, a clear and sharp look fell on Anna’s body.
“Why don’t you come here, how long do you want to stay there? You won’t be able to keep your balance if the boat opens later.”
Matthew’s voice reached her ears, but she blushed indignantly and lowered her gaze as she walked slowly toward him.
The place inside by the sea was reserved for her by Matthew.
But Anna dared not enter now, she sat outside, and before her arms touched the chair, Matthew put his hands on it and pulled her into his lap.
“Ah …” Anna almost exclaimed, but she made it in time and looked at Matthew with wide eyes and a frightened expression on her face, “You, let me go.”
This was a public place, after all, it was embarrassing if she was sitting directly on his lap like that.
But Matthew was oblivious to this and simply said, “I was told to save you a seat, wasn’t I?”
“Uh …” Anna shook her head and bit her lower lip, “suddenly I don’t want to sit down.”
As she said this, she strained to get up from Matteo’s lap, but there was no way to tell what was happening to Matteo, the hands clutching her waist were tight, locked firmly around like chains, and not only that, but he slowly brought his face closer to hers.
“Mrs. Giordano, why are you nervous?”
A low voice escaped Matteo’s thin lips and the warmth of his breath lingered between hers, and Anna huddled in his tight circle.
After a moment, she looked at Matthew with pitying eyes and said in a tiny, tiny voice, “I didn’t want …”
If that Gresta had not said they were not married and betrayed her on the spot, she would not have jumped out of the act.
Now Matteo brings it up, does he really care?
Does he think she is a woman with a special heart? Wouldn’t he like her anymore?
Anna’s face took on a tinge of anxiety at the thought.
Matteo reached out and elbowed her on the nose, “Of course I know you didn’t mean it.”
Anna breathed out, “What?”
“Did you mean it?”
Anna: “No, I really didn’t …”
“What is the tension?” Matthew fixed her hair and clothes, his voice still light: “You can say whatever you want, it’s not like I blame you.”
At those words, Anna froze and stared at him blankly.
“You really won’t blame me?”
Matthew smiled and looked at her.
“Then … you won’t think I’m thoughtful to do so with Gresta but … I was blamed hey.”
Although they all eventually vocalized it, it also started with Anna’s remark, and if she had not come forward and said it, people might not have had such a deep opinion of Gresta.
Who knew that when Matteo heard what she said, he reached out and rubbed her head, his tone incredibly affectionate.
“Isn’t it good? It shows that my girl has grown up and knows what tricks to use against whom she wants.”
Anna: “…”
God! She really thought so!
Anna couldn’t have been more surprised; she thought Matteo would think she was particularly intriguing-after all, men didn’t seem to like the kind of woman who played with his heart.
But who knew that Matteo would rub her head affectionately and tell her that his girl was growing up.
So teasing, so teasing!
Oooh … Anna could not help but reach out and grab Matteo’s collar and look at him with exclamation.
“Is that really how you think?”
“Are there any other thoughts? You don’t believe me?”
Anna bit her lower lip and blushed as she approached him, “I’m a little touched, a little …”
Although this was a public place, after saying this, Anna suddenly had the idea to kiss him!!!
And that kind of kissing is difficult!
But … there were too many people around now, and Anna was too shy to do it!
“A little bit of what?” Matthew had no idea what was going on in the girl’s head, he just thought she was trying to express it but was too embarrassed to say, so he asked again in a low voice.
Anna thought about it, blinked, and suddenly leaned in and kissed him heavily on the underside of his cheek!
If not on the mouth, then on the cheek….
that wasn’t unfortunate, was it?
Matthew froze for a moment, looking at her with a slightly astonished look.
The girl’s kiss had caught him a little off guard.
Who knew that she would suddenly come up and kiss him so boldly when he had just sat her on his lap and she had felt so shy and flushed that she had tried to push him away?
And while Matthew was stunned, Anna had already gotten up and sat on the inside seat, looking down and seriously putting on her life jacket and seat belt.
She did it carefully as if nothing had happened.
Except for those little eyelashes that moved slightly.
After stealing a kiss, the way she pretended that nothing had happened but could not control her inner tension, which accidentally leaked through her small gestures, was particularly attractive to Matthew.
He would have liked to pull the girl toward him, squeeze her chin, and tell her what kissing meant.
But when he thought of all the other people around, he discarded the idea.
Anna’s heart was beating, and although she was outwardly calm, it took several attempts to fasten her seat belt before she got in, and only after she was done did she realize that her hands were still shaking slightly.
But … it felt good to steal a kiss.
