Reborn for Revenge or A Second Chance At Vengeance novel Chapter 178

ss marks on her collarbone had darkened again while brushing her feeth, which made her feel somewhat irritated. 

“Mr. Quigley, can you please stop bruising my collarbone?” 

The dresses she purchased were almost all designed with thin straps that exposed her collarbone 

Now, because of those marks, she couldn’t wear those dresses anymore! 

To think that she hoped to take some beautiful pictures. 

Even a concealer couldn’t hide those marks. 

Matthew was brushing his teeth beside Aurelia at that moment. Upon hearing Aurelia’s requ his gaze fell on her collarbone. 

Last night, in the heat of the moment, he kissed her at the very spot where a trace of their previous encounter was still visible. This sight stirred his emotions even more, leading him to plant another kiss there. 

It was as if her body bore the marks he left behind, letting others know that she had a man. 

Just thinking about it made his throat itchy. Her voice was cooing whenever she made requests. 

“You’re truly irresistible.” Matthew swallowed, repressing his desire to take her to bed. 

Upon hearing his dubious defense, Aurelia’s face flushed instantly. “You lack self–control. I never seduced you!” 

“When you called me “Hubby‘ in our bed, both your eyes and voice were so seductive.” 

“It’s all because of you…” Aurelia’s retort came to an abrupt halt when she realized they were discussing such matters in the bathroom when they had just woken up in the morning. 

Matthew raised an eyebrow, his thin lips curling into a slight smirk. “What did I do?” 

Aurelia took a deep breath, refusing to back down. “You kept tormenting me so much that I couldn’t bear it and cried for mercy! If you’re so capable, don’t force me to call you “Hubby next timel 

With that, Aurelia stormed out. 

Right after she left, she turned back angrily and said to Matthew, “Men are really dogs once they get off the bed!”

+5 Pearls 

He wasn’t angry because he could sense that Aurelia was becoming less and less guarded with her emotions in front of him. 

This was the real her. 

The real her stirred up an irresistible urge in him to take her to bed and cherish her again. 

After having breakfast at the hotel, Aurelia decided to accompany Matthew to the hospital to visit 

Zoc. 

The two of them hopped into a car as soon as they left the hotel. 

Throughout the entire journey, not a single glance was cast elsewhere. 

Meanwhile, Curtis, with an unshaven face and a weary expression, watched helplessly as Aurelia and Matthew came and went together intimately. 

“Aurelia, are you despising me because of him? When did you become such a shallow person? What kind of man is Matthew Quigley? He’s never short of women around him. He’s just toying with you!” 

Curtis‘ eyes were filled with ferocity. 

He knew all too well the allure Matthew held for women. 

Ordinary folks like them would feel humbled by Matthew’s presence. 

He was initially captivated by Melanie because of her privileged background as a wealthy and beautiful girl, a type he had never encountered before. Just like that, he lost his mind. 

He was well aware of the path he walked, so when Aurelia took the same path, even though it pained him, he was able to help her leave. 

Exactly! 

He had to seize the opportunity to leave with Aurelia! 

The hotel was costly, and he couldn’t afford to squander his limited funds from his card on staying here. Last night, he checked into a small inn and planned to stay there again today. He was biding his time, waiting for the right opportunity to leave with Aurelia. 

The scent of disinfectant was always present in the hospital. 

Aurelia didn’t enter the ICU. Instead, she stood by the window and observed the situation inside. 

After changing into his sterilized outfit, Matthew walked in. What he said to Zoe was unclear, but she seemed quite delighted. 

Even after the surgery was completed and she was under close observation, Zoe seemed to have endless things to say, and she talked for a long time.

comforting word before he exited the ICU. 

Zoe turned to look at Aurelia. 

Upon seeing the breathtakingly beautiful Aurelia, the smile on Zoe’s face stiffened. 

However, she quickly nodded politely toward Aurelia as a form of greeting. 

Aurelia also responded with a laugh. 

Just then, Matthew stepped out and stood by Aurelia’s side. 

He wrapped his arms around Aurelia and said, “Let’s go.” 

“What about here….” 

“Hand it over to Gordon.” 

“Okay.” 

Zoe watched as the two people held each other close, seemingly oblivious to the world around them. A pang of pain tugged at her heart. 

She wasn’t sure if it was due to the aftermath of the procedure, or because she’d discovered that Matthew had feelings for Aurelia, but she was in an emotional turmoil now. 

After leaving the hospital, Matthew took Aurelia on a boat trip to an island near Kenfort. 

All the entertainment facilities and hotels on this island were properties of Quigley Group. 

“Do you like diving?” Matthew asked. 

Excitement danced in Aurelia’s eyes as she responded, “I’ve never gone diving before, but I’m willing to learn!”
