Just as they were about to enter the house, Matthew suddenly called out, "Erica."

This drew both Erica's and Evelyn's attention. Then, Matthew told

Evelyn, “Evelyn, why don't you take the kids inside first? We'll be there in a second."

“Okay. You two should get inside soon. Lunch is waiting!" Evelyn replied. She quickly understood what he meant, so she took Gwyn from

Erica and led the kids inside.

Now that they were alone, Erica asked Matthew, "What's the matter?"

Matthew held her hand. Sensing her reluctance, he didn't beat around the bush and said in a rather indifferent tone, “I don't want to Listen to his bullshit."

"Whose?"

"Carlos'."

"If you behave yourself, why would Dad nag you?" At that moment, Erica felt like she could never figure out what was going on inside his head.

As he looked down at their intertwined hands, he said, "You know that I married you because he and Mom forced me to, right? Now, they are trying to push me even further. Just remember to use your acting skills in front of them Later!"

Feeling a bit surprised, Erica conjectured, “Do you want me to pretend that we're a sweet couple in front of Mom and Dad?"

“Finally, you're being smart for once!" Before she could say anything else, he dragged her into the villa.

“Why? Why should I do what you're asking me to do?" Erica didn't want to play along. In their relationship, he had always been the one calling the shots, and she was always being forced to do as he said.

Matthew Looked at her and asked, “Do you have any problem with it? Deal with it, then.”

Inside the villa, Carlos was waiting for them at the door.

When he saw them walk in hand in hand, a great big smile crept onto his face and he said, “Rika, come and eat with us. Go wash your hands."

“Okay, Dad!"

As they walked from the entrance of the Living room to the bathroom,

Matthew never let go of Erica's hand the entire time. Because of this, everyone from the Hilton family was so happy to see the two of them so in love with each other.

Sheffield secretly gave Matthew a wink as well as a thumbs up when

Erica wasn't looking.

“Matthew seems to have actually won her heart several days after they got married. That's impressive! '

When the couple finally disappeared into the bathroom, Sheffield stopped Joshua who was passing by and gossiped with him.

“Have you noticed? Men Like Matthew tend to go for young women who refuse to talk to them. Do you know why?"
