When they arrived at the opposite side of the road, Dominic let go of her hand After taking a few more steps, they arrived at the Hilton Group’s building Suddenly, a little girl appeared before them.

“Mister, please buy some flowers for your girlfriend”
The little girl had dirty clothes on, and her hair was disheveled Her garments were thin, and her hands were red from the
Seeing her condition, Elizabeth asked, “You’re so young Why are you selling flowers here?”
Her heart ached more as she noticed that the child was Abby’s age
The little girl timidly responded, “My grandmother is sick I need to earn money to buy medicine for her.”
Dominic took out his wallet and extracted a stack of money after hearing that..
“I’ll buy the flowers.”
The girl shook her hand when she saw the large amount of cash.
“That’s too much. The flowers only cost one hundred.”
Dominic took the flowers from her hand and replied flatly, “You can use the remaining money to buy medicine for your grandmother”
The little girl bowed at them gratefully. “Thank you, mister, ma’am. You two are good people. I wish you happiness!”
With that, the girl smiled at them and turned around to jog away.
Dominic then passed the flowers to Elizabeth and said, “A present for you.

It was a big bouquet of red roses. Since it was Elizabeth’s first time receiving flowers, she smiled gaily.
“Thank you!”
Dominic was a kind man, and he had always been like that.
Elizabeth returned to the office with the bouquet in her arms, and it attracted a lot of attention the moment she got into the elevator.
Since the staff from different departments rarely interacted with one another, she was not well known.
After the ladies outside the CEO’s office saw the bouquet in her hands, they immediately asked, “Ms. Wade, is that from your boyfriend? You’re so lucky!”
Elizabeth was stunned for a moment when she heard them. She wanted to say no, but since there were too many rumors

Since many people are eager to hear something they can use to mock me, it’s better to remain silent about it. If I said no,

When Elizabeth entered the CEO’s office with the bouquet, Matthew shot his dark gaze at her and immediately jumped to his feet upon spotting the roses in her arms.
He then strode over and snatched the bouquet from her hand.
“Hey!”
Elizabeth had planned to bring the roses home and tell her three children about the girl selling the flowers, but she didn’t expect Matthew to snatch them from her and toss them into the trash can.
Elizabeth instantly approached him and inquired, “Why did you throw my flowers away, Matthew?”
At the end of her sentence, she bent down and tried to retrieve the flowers, but Matthew held onto her hand tightly and turned her around, forcing her back to face the bin.
“You’re not allow to pick them up!”
Elizabeth’s expression became grim upon hearing his demand. “Those flowers are mine:”
With a pair of dark eyes and tensed jawline, Matthew questioned her chillingly, “Are the flowers from Dominic so important to you? If you like roses, I can buy them for.
you too.”
In Matthew’s mind, Elizabeth was different from the other women. Hence, he was sure that she had no interest in flowers.
Never in a million years had he ever thought that she did like flowers.
If I had known this earlier on, I would have given her flowers more often.
Strangely enough, Elizabeth was a bit happy when she heard his words. Is he mad because Dominic gave me the flowers?
“I only want this bouquet. Let go of me!”
With that, she struggled to break free, wanting to pick up the roses from the trash can.
Hearing that, Matthew seized her hands and forced her to take a few steps back. When her back hit the wall, he pressed his lips against hers.
Elizabeth widened her eyes in response. The kiss was aggressive. It was as if he was biting her, and it hurt her, causing tears to well
in her eyes.
Luckily, that only lasted for a moment. The kiss became gentle, and Matthew intertwined his tongue with hers Elizabeth tried to avoid his tongue and retract hers, but the man kissing her wouldn’t allow it.

Matthew watched her slowly give up on resisting him. He couldn’t help but adore her and her hazy eyes.
Hence, in response to that, he intensified the kiss. He even wrapped Elizabeth’s hands around his neck so she could hug
