Virginity in second marriages by Angela
Chapter 961: The Right Method.

Was it too late to love her?

He had never thought it would be too late.

So time passed and he had not said a single word of confession.

She thought she had a chance, but to his surprise--she had fallen deeply in love with someone else before he made his feelings known.

Now, she could flirt with him without any emotion of nervousness or shyness.

Luca did not know the girls very well, but he knew the basics.

He knew that girls were shy in front of someone they liked, but she was not shy in front of him at all.

Now...

Luca felt a little sad and closed his thin lips without saying anything else. His whole aura changed drastically for a second. Before, Anna thought he was an innocent man who blushed easily. Now--suddenly she felt as if he was not a person but a pool of stagnant water.

He had no vitality and gave the impression of being cold.

"What was going on here...?"

Thinking, Anna unconsciously bit her lip after evidently sensing the change in him, "Did what he had just said make him angry?"

-Hey, I didn't mean anything by what I just said. I didn't mean to make fun of you. It's just that you suddenly leaned out, anyone would have misunderstood.

Luca looked up and smiled sweetly at her.

-I'm sorry, I was wrong before. Since your fever is down, I'll leave you alone for now.

With that, he turned and walked out of the kitchen, and Anna noticed his movement, which seemed a bit....

"Is he running away?"

"No..." Anna thought.

"What did I do to make him run away? It's like something is chasing him from behind. I just flirted with him, is he that scary? He's the one who approached me first."

Anna felt her heart beat a little faster at the thought of how close they had been.

She shook her head and shivered.

"Luca, you idiot, why did you suddenly approach me, we are friends, but..."

Anna thought about it and decided it was okay, she had done it anyway and if he wasn't embarrassed she wasn't either.

Luca left the kitchen and walked toward the hotel. After making sure Anna was okay, he was relieved.

As he was about to leave, he had bumped into Matthew, who had come out of his room.

Thinking of Anna, Luca looked at Matteo again.

He was a man of very high rank. Of course, he was not comparable to ordinary people. He was handsome and stable. Moreover, he owned the whole Jordan group. As a man, Luke thought Matthew was excellent.

Let alone a woman.

So it was natural that Anna fell in love with him.

What about himself? He was just a little helper. He possessed nothing, and he had a terrible scar on his face. How could he compete with Matteo by being so useless?

He was not even qualified to face Matteo.

At this thought, Luke smiled to himself, withdrew his gaze and walked out.

Matteo, who was walking toward the kitchen, probably noticed something, and afterward Luca withdrew his gaze. He stopped and turned his head to look at the slim but powerful figure.

A moment ago... he had left the kitchen.

As for the kitchen...

Matthew bit his thin lips, stopped thinking, and headed for the kitchen.

Anna had finally finished washing the rice in the pot. She had just calmed down when she turned her head and saw Matteo enter. He had been vibrant a moment ago. But now she had immediately turned her head back as if in shock, not daring to look at Matteo.

Then she saw some tomatoes on the table beside her, so Anna hurried to pick them up and wash them, ready to cut them.

"Well, I do things and I don't notice Matteo." Anna thought.

She took the knife and cut the red tomato in half. Then she took one half and cut it into slices. When she heard Matteo picking up the water, she thought again unconsciously. Actually, yesterday's incident had been caused by her whim.

Matteo had explicitly rejected her. He did not want his sister to get the wrong idea that there was something between them, so it was only natural that he had asked her to take off her coat and go buy another

one.

Anna had felt attacked by the fact that she was a girl and he was treating her that way.

So she had gotten angry and asked the saleswoman to give Matteo his coat back for her, without even seeing it, and let him go first.

She had only thought that if she made a scene like that, Matteo might feel a little sorry for her and come and cuddle her. After all, he had probably been very worried about her when he had taken off his coat and given it to her to put on.

But... he had still underestimated Matteo's thoughts.

Matteo Giordano was what he seemed to be, so how could he come and cuddle her just because she was angry?

It had been really stupid of him to go with that kind of thinking in mind.

Now Anna was regretting that she should have stopped yesterday. If he had bought her clothes and given her a gift, the two of them would have gone home together to be alone for a while.

She had to change her strategy, being adorable wasn't doing Matthew much good.

But...... if she suffered a little, then maybe Matteo would give her another look.

Just as Matteo had taken care of her yesterday when she was dressed so badly.

If she had changed her tactics and gone for sympathy, would they both have a better chance of it working out later?

Thinking, Anna felt a sudden pain in her finger. Before her brain could react, very painfully, she screamed at the top of her lungs.

Matthew, drinking his water, suddenly heard her cry of pain and looked toward her.

A quick glance revealed that Anna had accidentally cut her finger and blood was pouring out of the wound, instantly mixing with the red tomato juice.

Matthew put down his glass, quickly reached over and took her hand, placed it under the faucet, rinsed it, and asked, "Do you have a band-aid?

In response to his cold question, Anna nodded, "Maybe, I think so.

Maybe?

Matteo frowned, -Wait here.

When Matteo came out, Anna gasped, looking at the cut on her finger and thinking about the intimate contact she had just had with Matteo, her heart slowly filled with sweetness.

A moment ago she was trying to change her strategy and take the path of asking for sympathy.

Unexpectedly... God had helped her.

She had cut her finger and, by chance, Matthew was at her side.

Of course, men like him only showed up when they saw you hurt or in need of help.

Although the wound hurt, Anna did not get angry at all and in fact smiled.

It seemed that she had found the right method to pursue Matthew.
