Chapter 861 The Truth Is Revealed
“No, I weigh more than a hundred pounds.” Shirley shook her head and placed the shrimp dumpling on
Skyler’s plate. “You need to eat more.”
Skyler smirked and raised his eyebrows when he heard that. “What’s the problem? Are you concerned
that I won’t have enough energy if I don’t eat enough?”
The innocent Shirley was unaware of Skyler’s innuendo. “Of course not. All I want is for you to eat
more.” “Oh, I see what you mean. You’re criticizing me for not doing a good job of serving you.”
“Huh? I—” Shirley’s cheeks flushed scarlet as she realized what he meant. “What nonsense are you on
about?”
Skyler is such a pervert who constantly drops innuendoes! “What are you talking about? I see you both
having a good time even from a distance,” Veronica commented.

“Veronica and Iron!” Shirley cheerfully stood up. “We’re having breakfast right now. Why don’t you
come over and have some too?”
“It’s late; why are you eating breakfast now?” Veronica looked at the wall clock, which showed that it
was already 9.30 AM. “I…”
Shirley was shy, and the flush on her face didn’t go away. Veronica’s words made her unconsciously
recall what happened the night before and she couldn’t help but blush.
“Oh? What exactly is going on?” Sensing something was amiss, Veronica turned her head and glanced
at Matthew. The two exchanged a knowing smile.
“What? N-Nothing at all.” Shirley then shook her head vigorously. “I slept in, so I’m late.” Matthew
nodded as he pretended to believe her. “Is that so? But Shirley, what made you so nervous about
Roni’s casual remark?”
Although Shirley’s reply was unusual, her reaction gave itself away. Skyler grinned in resignation as he
noticed Shirley flushing red like a tomato. Then, he asked Matthew with a sidelong glance, “Why did
you come here so early?”
“Am I not welcomed here?” Matthew’s remark had a double meaning. “One Piece Restaurant is your
domain and we’re only freeloading, so of course you are welcome here.” Then, Skyler lifted an eyebrow
at Veronica. “Right, Roni?”
As he finished his words, Matthew immediately slapped him. “Call her Veronica!” “Alright, alright. I get
it. Veronica.”
Skyler couldn’t stand up to Matthew’s stubbornness, so he addressed Veronica by her first name.
Then, he spread his arms and drawled, “You should compensate me for that.” “Do you prefer a death
pension?” Matthew warned Skyler with piercing eyes.
“You are so violent, Matt!” Skyler shook his head. “Ro—I mean, Veronica, you must be cautious. This

Veronica couldn’t help but giggle as she sat down across from Skyler. “You are cheerful. That suggests
something nice has occurred. You two are deceiving us.”
Shirley and Skyler had been flirting with each other since Veronica arrived, which she thought was very
unusual. “Oh, Veronica. What kind of nonsense are you on about? Sky and I did nothing unusual,”
Shirley’s face flushed again as she said this.
“Oh! Who are you calling ‘Sky’?” Veronica laughed as she covered her lips. “That’s enough!”
Skyler couldn’t take it any longer. In the end, he took Shirley’s hand and drew her to his lap. Then he
wrapped his arms around her neck and introduced her openly, “Shirley is my girlfriend. In the future,
please keep an eye out for us.”
“Skyler! D-Didn’t you agree to keep our relationship a secret for the time?”
Shirley blushed and pointed a finger at Skyler. However, he raised his hand and poked her on the
head. “Come on, Shirley. You’re too obvious. Do you think Matt and Veronica can’t tell?”
