Her Billionaire Husband

Chapter 120

Veronica‘s eyes lit up at Melissa‘s words. Her mood instantly took a turn for the better. “How could I? I ke ep my promises.”

It was so easy earning money like this. Veronica hadn‘t thought that Matthew could be used like a golden goose. She would have to hang onto him for this in the future!

Thirty minutes later, Veronica and Melissa arrived at the Spinfluence building. She prepared to call Matth ew, but she was also worried that she would interrupt him on the off– chance that he was in a business meeting. So, she called Thomas instead. Thomas came downstairs sh ortly after that.

“Hello, Miss Murphy and Miss Crawford, what are you here for today?” Thomas had immediately come to see Veronica the mome nt he heard about her arrival. He was good at reading people, after all. As someone who had a good gra sp on people‘s feelings, Thomas knew very well just how important Veronica was to his employer.

“Uh… I‘m here to look for Matthew,” Veronica said with a straight face as she glanced at Melissa meaningfully.

Thomas dipped his head before walking over to the reception and pointing at Veronica. “From today onw ard, you are not supposed to stop her from entering the premises,” he said to the receptionists.

The two receptionists eyed Veronica, jealousy clear in their eyes as they nodded. “All right. Understood, Mr. Ritter.”

Thomas proceeded to lead Veronica and Melissa upstairs.

This was Veronica‘s first time inside the Spinfluence Group. At the sight of the elegant and modern interi or design and the throngs of smart business people walking its halls, she felt envious. If it wasn‘t for the L arsons, she could have been like the employees here, working hard in a similar environment.

Having reached the CEO‘s office, Thomas pointed at the door. “This is Young Master Matthew‘s office, Miss Murphy. Please head inside yourself; I still have some business to attend to.” He didn‘t want to third–wheel them, so he made up an excuse to slip away.

“Thank you, Mr. Ritter,” Veronica said. Then, she and Melissa walked over to the door, knocking on it bef ore opening the door.

The moment they walked in, they were greeted by the sight of an opulent office with a muted color sche me. Matthew sat by a curved desk, leaning back in his large chair, while there, sitting on his lap was… Tif fany Larson!

Veronica stopped in her tracks to stare dumbly at the sight before her.

Matthew was, as usual, dressed in a suit. His hair was cut short. His features were chiseled and defined, comparable to the perfection of a model, especially with his chic and noble aura; the woman in his arms was clad in a strapless dress. Her long hair cascaded down to her waist, and her light makeup was beaut ifully done. Her collarbones were visible without being stark, adding to her loveliness. Both man and wom an were beautiful creatures, works of art. And here they were, cuddling closely with each other.

Those two were engaged, so it was perfectly normal that this would happen. And yet Veronica felt suffoc ated, like she was a beat behind everyone. .

“So that b*tch is here too.” Melissa couldn‘t stop herself from pursing her lips upon seeing Tiffany, enviou s of her position. Upon closer look, although Veronica and

Tiffany looked very much similar, Melissa still thought that Veronica‘s beauty surpassed Tiffany‘s, even w hen Veronica had no makeup on.

Both women stepped inside. Melissa took an even closer look at Tiffany then. Upon comparing them, she realized that Veronica‘s eyes were larger and more lively. Her eyebrows especially were more beautiful t han Tiffany‘s, and her nose was more defined and straighter than Tiffany‘s. Veronica had a small mole on her nose too; despite her lack of makeup, the mole added a dignified air to her.

Her beauty perfectly eclipsed Tiffany‘s. The title of the most beautiful woman in Bloomstead might just ch ange hands.

“Why… are you here?” A chill swept through Matthew‘s heart at Veronica‘s sudden appearance. His onyx – like eyes turned away from her momentarily as he immediately pushed Tiffany away gently. Although he was pushing her away, it looked like he was treating her delicately.

“My, you‘re back at last, Veronica.” Tiffany‘s lips quirked up into a smile. She then approached Veronica. “ I knew that you went to Almeida recently. When I heard that you got into an accident, I nearly worried my self to death,” she said in concern.

“Tch, blatant lies! I don‘t see any concern coming from you,” Melissa stated mercilessly. She found Tiffan y so fake that it made her nauseous.

“No, I just suspected…”

“Sbe simply felt unwell recently.” Before Tiffany could finish her words, Matthew walked over and pulled h er to his side, answering Melissa‘s rebuttal on her behalf.

Melissa had spent half a month with Veronica in Almeida. One could say they were inseparable. Matthew was also someone who treated the f

riends of those important to him well, so he was naturally more patient with Melissa.

Tiffany‘s expression went rigid at his words. She eyed Matthew for a long while with a meaningful look. At last, she forced herself to giggle. “He‘s right; I‘ve been feeling under the weather the last few days. I was worried about Veronica, yet I was powerless to help her. However, my family sent out many search parties to look for her after her disappearance.” Nôvel/Dr(a)ma.Org - Content owner.

Although Tiffany knew that Matthew and Veronica had been in Almeida at the same time, Tiffany hadn‘t gone to Almeida, owing to a certain re ason. Regardless, she had achieved her goals to some extent.

Veronica looked at Matthew with a dispirited gaze. For a moment, she didn‘t speak. They looked at each other just like that with complicated looks in their eyes, as though they could convey all their feelings this way.

Matthew‘s dark brows furrowed at the sight of her gaze. “Why are you here?”

“I…” Veronica‘s mind went blank at the sudden question; she was unsure how to answer Matthew.

Melissa promptly stood up for her when she noticed Veronica‘s stuttering. “I was the one who made Veronica come to see you.” She defended Veronica righteously like a good friend would.

Tiffany‘s hands clenched as she fixed Veronica with a jealous glare. She couldn‘t understand how this little Bloomstead knows that Melissa is the most pampered and cosseted person in the Crawford Family. Is Ve

“Since you‘re here to see Matthew, take a seat. Would you like coffee or tea?” Tiffany immediately put on a bossy demeanor, like she was the leader here. Her haughtiness was off.

“I just remembered that I have something to do. Goodbye.” Veronica didn‘t want to interact with Tiffany, no was no space for her when Tiffany was around.

As though he had discerned Veronica‘s thoughts, Matthew immediately said to Tifany. “You‘re unwell. You

“I‘m not that tired.” Tiffany shook her head, unwilling to leave. Leave and let Veronica get the chance to sp Not on my watch!

“Have you forgotten the doctor‘s orders?” Matthew asked again, a frosty edge to his voice now.

Tiffany‘s expression shifted slightly. She pressed her lips together as she looked at Matthew before lookin

The baby seems unstable? Veronica‘s mind buzzed. All she could sense was how blank her mind was. Sh
