Chapter 336
Valerie thought, “What is he talking about!”
She felt that Matthew was becoming more and more like a different person. She remembered that back then, he guarded against her like he was guarding against snakes and scorpions. He even wanted to lock his room, afraid that she would do something bad to him. However, he would trase her casually now.
Fortunately, the elevator soon arrived at the basement. Matthew carried her into the car.
Nathan drove the two of them back to the neighborhood.
For the entire day. Nathan had been busy running around and carrying things. He originally wanted to go upstairs with the two of them to have some coffee, but when he saw the couple’s backs leaning against each other, he suddenly felt like he was not needed there.
Valerie greeted him “Nathan, you’ve helped a lot. Stay for dinner.”
Nathan remembered that Charles had mentioned to him before that Valerie’s cooking was delicious Just as he was about to agree, he suddenly felt a chill on his back and hurriedly waved his hand. “That’s okay!”
If he dared to agree, he felt that he probably would be murdered by Matthew as soon as quickly crawled back into the car and left.
on as he entered the
house. Nathan was so frightened that he
Valerie sighed. “Nathan is really wann–hearted.”
Matthew did not comment. “Let’s go home first.”
After saying that, he wanted to carry Valerie again.
This time, Valerie refused to give in no matter what. It was fine if she was in the hospital, but not many people knew her. However, neighbors in the neighborhood met frequently. If word got our later, she would really be too ashamed to face anyone
Matthew could not dissuade her, so he could only help her up the stairs. He thought, “Why is she so easily embarrassed now? Where did that person who boldly asked to marry me go?”
Valerie had been hospitalized twice in a row for a few days. When she returned, she saw that the entire house was clean and tidy. The clothes that needed to be washed were hanging on the balcony. Even her hamsters were fed and turned chubby. They were sleeping in the nest at the moment.
She uid. “You have been quite diligent, Mr. Grand!”
Matthew nodded and decided not to tell her that he had found a cleaner.
Valerie was already in such a state, so she naturally could not cook. Although Matthew knew a little, it was not much. In the end, Valerie decided, “Mr. Grant, let’s order takeout tonight”
“Sure.” He immediately wanted to ask for the contact numbers of Golden Elegance, Fathom Restaurant, and Gordon’s from Charles. He wanted to ask for the food to be delivered to their door. However, the next moment, he saw Valerie open a takeout app.
He thought, Compared to her, I am acting like an oldtimer..
It was indeed Mathew’s first time using the delivery app. There were a lot of options on it, but Matthew frowned when he saw the options. In the end, they found a chain restaurant and ordered food from there. It just so happened that Valerie could have spaghetti.
Hence, he chose some food and went straight to pay.
Unexpectedly, Valerie took the phone and looked around the app. Later, when they returned to the payment page, they received a ten percent
discount
“How did you do it?” He was surprised.
Valerie knew that he usually did not mind spending money. She thought that he would despise her for wanting to get a discount on everything. She did not expect him to look at her surprisingly. She was a little proud. “Don’t you understand? This is called the wisdom of life!”
Matthew curled his lips. “Yes, yes. I rely on you to save up for the mortgage in the future.”
Valerie had rejected Angel’s offer when she was in the hospital with the excuse of making money to pay for the mortgage. She did not expect Matthew to suddenly mention it. Moreover, Valerie did not know if she was overthinking it. Matthew’s tone did not sound like he was joking Instead, it seemed to be implying something.
She looked at him in surprise and met his deep black eyes. In an instant, she seemed to be sucked in.
Unexpectedly, at this moment, the headlights above their heads suddenly flickered, emitting a crackling sound. Then, the light suddenly went out

and their surroundings were pitch–black.
“Is there a blackout!” Valerie was a little surprised. She narrowed her eyes for a while, her vision slowly adapted to the darkness.
Usually, in such a neighborhood, the blackout would be notified in advance. If there was a sudden blackout, it would most likely be a problem somewhere. Valerie took out her phone from her pocket and turned out the flashlight. Just as she was about to turn it on to check the power switch. a hand suddenly blocked her screen, preventing her from turning on the flashlight.
Valerie was stunned “Mr. Grant?”
There was only her and Matthew in the room. It could only be Matthew stopping her.
Matthew did not say anything, nor did he explain why he wanted to stop her. He just kept his hand tightly on the screen.
Valerie stopped what she was doing in confusion. After hesitating for a while, she could not help but ask. “Mr. Grant, are you afraid of the dark?”
His hands had always been hot, but now they were extremely cold
Manhew fell silent.
