Take My Breath Away

Chapter 1446 Ill Rub It For You

"Don't worry about it too much. After all, you have my dad as your backer. If Rika gets too troublesome for you, you can always ask Dad to punish her for you!" Gifford comforted his brother-in-law.

'Punish Erica? No, that's not what I want.

I want Rika to forgive me on her own or else what would be the point?' Matthew thought to himself.

Joshua poured himself a glass of whisky and took a few sips before saying, "Sheffield is right. The time and place are important factors that you must consider in these cases. My advice is to put your dignity aside and throw a durian and a keyboard on the floor in the living room in front of everyone and let Rika make the decision when Uncle Wesley and his family come to Y City to celebrate the New Year."

Sheffield knew what was on Joshua's mind so he decided to play along. He continued, "That's when we'll all persuade Rika together. She's definitely not going to turn down a room full of people, right?"

"Rika is not that unreasonable. She will definitely save your face. So this matter can be over!" said Joshua.

Raising an eyebrow at Joshua, Matthew asked, "Do you have any idea who Rika is?"

"What?" Joshua was confused.

Matthew flicked the cigarette between his two fingers and said, "When my wife gets angry, she won't even think twice about making me kneel on a keyboard at the entrance of the company!"

Joshua was rendered speechless, eyes widened with shock. Matthew was right. After all, Erica was not an ordinary girl.

Sheffield thought for a while and said, "Matthew, then you should be praying for yourself, my friend. I think it's time to accept that there's not going to be an easy way out of this!"

Gifford looked at the men in the room in disbelief. "Hold on! Aren't you guys blowing this out of proportion? Erica is not like that at all. Let me tell you something, Matthew. Don't listen to Sheffield. Just because he always ends up kneeling on the keyboard, he wants you suffer the same experience. He is not helping you at all."

"Hey, hey, Gifford, you better watch what you're saying?" Sheffield stared at the man discontentedly.

Ignoring him, Gifford continued, "In my opinion, if Erica gets too stubborn, just tell my dad. I promise my father will subdue her with one move, and if he can't, he'll definitely do it in two moves. Anyway, Dad will find a way to make her forgive you."

Matthew took another drag from his cigarette,

certain that his mother was in safe hands.

Matthew nodded and took Erica back to their room.

The house was riddled with children and they were mostly playful, naughty boys. Matthew was afraid that one of them would suddenly walk in on them being intimate, so he shut the door and made sure it was locked.

He pressed Erica against the door, and without giving her a chance to say a word, he lowered his head and kissed her red lips.

He whispered in her ear, "Honey, I've missed you."

Erica smiled, stood on her tiptoes and wrapped her arms around his neck. "I've missed you too."

Without giving her any chance to speak anymore, Matthew pressed her against the door and kissed her deeply.

About ten minutes later, someone knocked on the door. Bang! Bang! Bang!

Completely disregarding the person on the other side of the door, Matthew carried on with his work.

Adkins' voice came from outside the bedroom. "Dad, it's me, Adkins!"

However, there was no sound from the inside.

After mumbling something at the door for a while, Adkins twisted the doorknob again, but found it locked.

Matthew had his palm over the woman's mouth to stop her from making any sound.

Bang! Bang! Bang! Someone knocked on the door again. This time, it was Damian. "Dad, we are here to see Mom. Is Mom okay?" he asked.

"What are you doing, Adkins?" Gifford asked.

The commotion outside was starting to worry Erica so she tried to push Matthew away, but the man didn't budge an inch.

"Dad said that Mom got hurt and they're inside, but why aren't they talking to us?" Adkins looked completely puzzled.
