Take My Breath Away

Chapter 1284 Matthew Bullied Me

"I'll get pregnant without them!" What the woman said echoed in Erica's mind.

She'd never given condoms a second thought. But this woman's words shocked her into reality. She stood there, thinking of all the times she and Matthew were intimate together.

He would drive her wild with his flirting, and then wait a few seconds before actually entering her.

Even if they started on the balcony or in the living room, they would end up in the bedroom eventually.

And all this made her think about things differently. Then, suddenly, she had an idea. She quickly found Yvette and Chantel, who were going through their shopping list. "Hey, are you done? Let's head back home."

"We just got here. What's the rush?" Yvette asked. She noticed something seemed to be bugging her sister.

"Well, I remembered something I need to do. I have to get home now. Why don't you finish shopping and I'll grab a cab?" She was going to have an answer to the question that burned in her mind.

"Nah, we're good. I have everything on my list. How about you, Chantel?" Yvette asked.

Chantel shook her head. "I think I'm done."

"Then let's pay for our stuff and get out of here." Yvette pushed the shopping cart up to the counter to pay the bill.

At the Li family house

When the three girls got home, the sun was lower in the sky and the streetlights were on. Blair was in the kitchen preparing dinner. A maid was in there helping her. Neither Wesley nor Gifford were there. Matthew was hard at work in the study.

As soon as Erica got home, she immediately rushed upstairs. She had to check something out. If she remembered correctly, Matthew had opened the drawer in the nightstand last night.

Confused, Blair went to the stairs and looked up, as if she'd get the answer to her question that way. "What's going on?" Blair asked Yvette and Chantel, who just entered the house. "Why did Rika run upstairs like that?"

Yvette spread out her hands and said, "Beats me. She was acting strange at the supermarket too. It's okay. I'll ask her later. I've got groceries to put away!"

"Okay!" Blair didn't devote too much attention to it, and went back to finishing up the meal.

Chantel went to the bathroom to wash her hands and walked back into the kitchen. "Hey, let me help with that."

Blair pushed her out of the kitchen. "No way. Three's a crowd. We're doing fine in here. Why don't you and Yvette run off and find something else to do?" Cook

when he heard what she said. He pushed his lust down inside him and buried it. After he'd regained a modicum of control, he put the quilt over her and said, "Don't get cold."

However, Erica whipped the quilt away, put on her pajamas and sat on the edge of the bed, crying sadly. Despair writhed inside of her.

She was sad as her twelve billion and five sons were saying bye-bye to her.

Soon, the other members of the Li family had heard her sobs. Wesley knocked at the door first. "Matthew? Rika? You in there?"

Erica immediately ran to open the door in bare feet this time.

Wesley and Blair stood in the hallway outside the door. Erica hugged her father and complained, "Dad, this is hopeless. Why can't I just die now?"

"Why are you crying?" Confused, Wesley held his daughter in his arms and patted her back to comfort her.

After tidying his pajamas, Matthew followed her outside and stopped beside her.

Sobbing, Erica answered, "Dad, Matthew bullied me. It's true." She was afraid that Wesley wouldn't believe her, so she emphasized that Matthew really did it this time.

"What did he do?" At this moment, the Li family members left their bedrooms and surrounded the young couple. They looked at Erica with concern.

It was not until now that Erica realized that she couldn't tell them what was really going on, because then she'd have to reveal that Matthew used condoms when they had sex. This was too embarrassing! So she decided to beat around the bush. She could only say, "I've lost twelve billion! And it's all because of Matthew Huo!"

The different members of the Li family were all dumbfounded.
