Take My Breath Away

Chapter 1131 Dont Give Ethan To Him

Erica walked toward Matthew, reaching out to take the gift box. However, he didn't hand it over to her. Instead, he walked to the bed and looked at her, who seemed to be caught in a daze, and he ordered, "Lie on the bed."

"My hair is still wet. I can't go to sleep yet," she remarked.

Hearing this, he put down the gift box and took out the hairdryer. "Just lie on the bed already. Cut the crap," he said, losing his patience.

"You just don't get it, do you? I need to dry my hair first before I go to bed." Erica was beginning to get annoyed as well. After all, how could she lie on the bed while her hair was still wet?

Holding the hairdryer in his hand, Matthew cast her a cold glance and asked in reply, "You really don't get what I'm saying, do you? I'm asking you to lie on the bed!"

"I need to dry my hair first. Why do I have to lie on the bed? Hand the hairdryer over. You just do whatever you want to do." Upon saying that, she walked closer to take the hairdryer from him.

But just as she was reaching for it, her wrist was suddenly grabbed by Matthew.

Putting down the hairdryer on the bedside table, he swiftly lifted her in his arms and dropped her on the bed.

Erica tried to break loose, but to no avail. Because of that, she completely lost her temper and protested, "Matthew Huo, what's wrong with you? My hair is still wet. Do you seriously not see that? If you don't want me to sleep in the same bed with you, just say it already! Why did you..."

She suddenly stopped talking when she saw what Matthew was doing.

Holding her on the bed without saying a single word, he clumsily lifted her wet hair toward the bedside. He gently held her shoulder with one hand and held the hairdryer with the other. Then, he turned it on and began to dry her hair.

Tilting her head to one side, Erica watched in amazement as the man, who was half squatting on the side of the bed with a cold face, helped her dry her hair. 'Am I seeing things? Is this really happening? What on earth is going on? He is drying my hair!' she asked herself in utter disbelief.

"Be honest with me, you did something wrong, am I right? And this is just your way of saying sorry?"

Without giving her any response, the man simply remained silent.

"Well, it doesn't really matter if you did something wrong. I don't care. There's no need for you to..." '...stoop so low as to dry my hair, ' she pondered to herself.

Despite Erica being a proud woman, she couldn't help thinking deep inside that dryin

e?" he asked cautiously.

"He is a mature man. He holds both money and power. But more than that, he is such a bastard!" Erica had met Tam Wu a number of times, and that was her impression of him.

"When did you realize that he is a bastard? Was it before or after Ethan was born?" he went on and asked.

After giving it much thought, Erica answered, "After the baby was born. He disappeared without a trace about five or six months before the baby was born."

With a straight face, Matthew continued drying her hair and asked again, "Did he try to reach out to you after the baby was born?"

"Yes, he called me twice, but I didn't answer. Why should I answer his calls? And it's not just that I wouldn't answer his calls, but I also have no plans of handing Ethan over to him!" As she talked about this, Erica went into a fit of anger.

"Well, then don't give Ethan to him. Based on what you said, I don't think he is a competent father!"

"Exactly! I think so too. Matthew, he seems to be aware of Ethan's existence, but he hasn't done anything about it at all. What if he shows up one day and tries to take Ethan away?" Erica worriedly asked with her eyes wide open.

As Matthew gently ran his fingers through her hair, he asked, "Do you want to give the boy to him?"

"Of course not. My parents have been working so hard to raise him well. Now, they have already grown fond of him. If that bastard suddenly takes him away, there's no doubt that my mother will be depressed." She could tell that everyone in her family treated Ethan as one of their own.

Pausing for a while, Matthew then said, "You can bring him to Y City and stay here. I'll protect you."
