Chapter 1371 Go Soft On Erica

Although Matthew wanted Erica to stay away from other men, she had been training with several male soldiers. Therefore, how could she do as he asked? Besides, it was Wesley who insisted that she should train among the soldiers. 'Why didn't he just go to Dad? Why did he come here to teach me a lesson instead? What a jerk!' Erica thought, doing her best to roll her eyes discreetly.

Putting his hand on her waist, Matthew asked sternly, "Do you still want to argue?"

She shook her head immediately. "No, no, no."

He had come to her with an invitation to take her to lunch. But despite his words, he had brought her to this place so they could have sex. Now she had missed lunchtime in the base.

At that moment, Matthew regained his usual and elegant image as he dressed neatly again. Afterward, he got out of the car and lit a cigarette.

Leaning against the car window, Erica smoothed her messy hair and called the man smoking outside, "Hey, Matthew! I'm hungry. Let's go and have lunch!"

Matthew breathed out a mouthful of smoke before he looked at the flushed woman in front of him. However, she soon became blurry through the haze. "Come with me," he offered.

'Come with him? Back to Y City?' she wondered. "No, no. I haven't met Wendy yet. I've promised to see her before leaving for Y City. Why don't you wait for me so that we can go back together?" she asked. She didn't want to break her promise.

She planned to return to Y City after she met Wendy, and then her two best friends—Hyatt and Rhea.

Upon hearing her answer, Matthew didn't say anything back. He stubbed out the cigarette and called Owen, to whom he ordered, "Let's go!"

More than ten minutes later, the luxury car dropped her off at the base.

With a hat in her hand, the woman stood in front of the gate in shock as she watched the luxury car driving away again. 'How could Matthew, my husband, do such a thing to me?

He said he was going to take me to lunch! Yet he took me to the wilderness to have sex with me. And then he sent me back with an empty stomach.

What a jerk!'

As it was already past lunchtime, Erica didn't find the canteen's door open. So she went to the snack bar and bought a box of instant noodles along with some other snacks.

Then she slowly made her way back, trying to balance the snacks and the box of noodles in her hands when a soldier she had never seen before walked towards her with a big smile. "Aren't you Gifford's sister?"

She

After all, she did grow up in A Country.

As soon as she saw the car heading to the downtown area, she couldn't hide her excitement any longer. "Dad, you're so kind! I love you!"

Wesley snorted, "Sit still!" Careful for Erica not to see it, he couldn't help but raise one of the corners of his mouth.

Poor Wesley! His two daughters had always been the apple of his eye. He just didn't have the heart to beat or scold them no matter what they did.

Yvette, at least, didn't cause him any trouble.

But Erica was the definition of a troublemaker. His blood pressure would often skyrocket because of her. Yet whenever he saw her annoying face, his rage would instantaneously fade.

Poor Wesley was indeed at the mercy of his wife and two daughters for the rest of his life.

When they got to the store, Erica bought her and Tessie the latest smartphones released by ZL Group. While she picked a white device for herself, she gave Tessie a black one.

After they settled everything, Erica asked Wesley to take her and Tessie to the mall so she could also pick up gifts for Hugo and Wendy.

As their aunt, she didn't think it was appropriate to see her nephew and niece without any gifts.

Two days ago, she had an excuse. She had just come back home in a hurry and didn't have the time to buy Hugo his gift. Today, she was going to make it up for it.

Then after she met Wendy, Hyatt and Rhea, she would go back to Y City and be reunited with her husband and children.

As for the moment, Erica couldn't wait to send Matthew a message. Therefore, as soon as she got her new phone, she typed, "Honey, it's me, your lovely wife!"
