Chapter 1118 He Really Is a Jerk!
While mockingly laughing at Eviette, she pointed to Veronica.
"Miss Top Actress, your playboy boyfriend here used to be in love with Veronica, but in the end, he left
her. Don't be fooled by his charming appearance. A playboy like him is unworthy of you."
At this point, she had insulted two people with her remarks.
Ruka, however, didn't care who she offended because she had the support of the Dame Family and
wasn't scared of anyone.
Eviette had previously been skeptical about Veronica and Matthew's relationship, but now she felt
strangely happy about it.
"If I'm not mistaken, you must be Miss Ruka Dame of the Dame Group."
She gave a soft smile after quickly recognizing the other person's identity.
"As far as I know, Miss Dame is single. I understand that a woman with no dating experience would not
understand love. Besides…"
Eviette glanced at Veronica sitting in the booth, and continued, "Matt said that he divorced Miss Murphy

deciding to get a divorce so they wouldn't waste their time was a wise decision. On the other hand, he
knew they had different values but still clung to the marriage; this is what truly resembles playboy
behavior."
Her words carried weight.
"What a twisted argument. Only you can make cheating sound so chic and sophisticated," Ivana said
while rolling her eyes.
"You're a broke, washed-up actress. Is that why you shamelessly seduce a married man and ruin his
family?"
Even after being criticized, Eviette did not become angry; she simply looked at Ivana and chose to
remain silent.
Hearing all of this gave Veronica a headache, so she moved forward right away to diffuse the situation.
"Enough, Ruka and Ivan. Matthew and I are no longer together. Let it go."
"What do you mean 'let it go'?"
Ivan, who had a short fuse, pointed at Matthew and exclaimed, "He clearly cheated on you while still
married. Don't you know you were deceived?!"
"What did you say?!"
Matthew's handsome face turned cold, his sharp eyes locked on Ivan, and he yelled, "Apologize to
Eviette this instant!"
His tone was harsh and cold, and Veronica could sense his rage.
Veronica was taken aback by his expression and questioned whether he was merely "too into the role"
or actually upset.
She fixed her gaze on him, but Matthew paid no attention to her.
While Veronica was being ignored by him, Eviette continued to maintain a soft and graceful smile on
her face, but Veronica could sense that she was being provocative.
She also sensed that Eviette was a potential love rival.
Thump!
Uncontrollably, her heart began to shake. Veronica had no choice but to admit that she was anxious.

Ivan probably assumed that because Veronica and Ruka were present, Matthew would not harm her
even if she spoke recklessly, which explained her confidence.
"It's all right, Matt." Eviette extended her hand and tugged at Matthew's sleeve.
"We came out to eat; don't let insignificant people ruin our mood."
At this point, Matthew's face darkened and his eyebrows furrowed. He cast a quick glance at Veronica
and noticed that her complexion had turned pale. Feeling worried for her, he gave her a small nod and
walked right past them.
As she watched them enter the private room area, Ruka continued to insult him. "Jerk! I was really
stupid back then to fall for him."
Thinking about her past affection for Matthew, Ruka regretted it deeply.
Thankfully, Hendrey Johnson's appearance made it possible for her to discover her true love.
"You're just too naive, Veronica. Don't you see how intimate and close they are? Open your eyes and
look at them! Don't let yourself be deceived again," advised Ivana, frustrated.
