Her Billionaire Husband

Chapter 121

Shock, astonishment, panic, anxiety–all that surged within her was a myriad of emotions.

Veronica‘s feelings were a complicated mess.

If Tiffany wasn‘t pregnant with Matthew‘s child, Veronica might still feel just that tiny bit hopeful toward M atthew. She‘d feel that he couldn‘t possibly side with Tiffany. But right now, he was the father of the baby inside Tiffany‘s belly…

Would he be like Tiffany one day and kill her, because he couldn‘t continue to let her have a spot in his life?

A sense of danger washed over Veronica then, making her unable to calm herself. In the face of this start ling news, she felt like retreating.

Matthew took in Veronica‘s expression with his dark eyes. It made him lapse into deep thought. Her gaze ... Is that sadness, or disappointment?

When they were in Dawnpol Village, Veronica had asked him to watch the moon together with her. She said that she had something to tell him, but she later lied about having a stomachache and ran. After that, Melissa came to ask him if he truly loved Tiffany.

At that time, he thought that Veronica had gotten Melissa to probe his feelings, presumably because Ver onica coveted him.

However, Xavier had proposed to Veronica that day at the hospital, and she even accepted his ring. For a moment, Matthew wasn‘t sure if she was capable of switching sides so easily, or if she was simply gree dy for money and power.

“A… baby?” Melissa slapped a hand over her mouth as she stared at Tiffany in disbelief. “You‘re pregnan t with Matthew‘s baby?”

How did this happen so suddenly? Melissa felt heartbroken. She loved Matthew so much. Initially, she thought that there was a chance that Matthew and Tiffany might break off their engagement, as they were simply eng aged and not married. But now, Tiffany was pregnant with Matthew‘s child.

Did Melissa even have a hope of being with Matthew now? That hope was practically left dead in a ditch!

hai nghi im one month along now. I only found out yesterday when I went for a checkup at the hospital wi th Matthew.” Tiffany was all smiles as she spoke to Melissa. She then turned her loving gaze upon Matth ew. The burning love in her eyes was clear for all 10 see.

Yesierday? Veronica understood then the reason for Matthew‘s sudden leave after he had sent her to Kings Residence yesterday. He hadn‘t shown up the entire day and night after that be cause he was with Tiffany.

“Veronica, what‘s… wrong? Why do you look upset?” Tiffany‘s lips curved up imperceptibly at the sight of Veronica‘s awful expression, but it disappeared in a flash,

“So, you‘re pregnant. What‘s it got to do with me? Is it worth me being upset?” Veronica shot back. “I still have some company things to settle. So, I‘ll be taking my leave.” She turned and left quickly without lingering.

Veronica had enjoyed the slightest scrap of “niceness” that Matthew gave her. It addled her mind, making her think that Matthew was different from the Larsons. When she was kidnapped and brought overseas, he saved her just so that he could get on Elizabeth‘s good side; when she was swept away by the raging river by Dawnpol Village in Almeida, he saved her for the same purpose as well.

Matthew did so much for her simply because she was Elizabeth‘s savior and was loved and favored by the older woman. This was all the bett er for him, to cultivate a chess piece he could plant by Elizabeth‘s side and draw intel from her, to build th e foundations of his war with Conrad Kings when Conrad returned home to fight over the family inheritance!

Veronica currently found herself laughable and pitiable. The pitiable part was, she was so pitiful that she saw the scrap of “niceness” that Matthew threw her way as being better t han it was, to the point that she was greatly moved by it; the laughable part was, he was clearly the fiancé of her nemesis, yet she still felt just that little bit hopeful about him.

“Yep, I‘m busy too, so I‘m leaving.” Melissa snorted, stamping her foot before turning to leave the office with Veronica. They file d into the elevator together.

Melissa‘s face was red with anger as the elevator headed to their destination. “That shameless fox! She‘ s only been engaged to Matthew for a few months, but she‘s already pregnant with his baby. That‘s just way too fast. Though, Matthew‘s also pretty incredible. Does he have some godly luck? She got pregnan t so quickly. How

Qui supposed to compete with her in the future? I don‘t have the upper hand at all!” Nie couldn‘t stop her self from cursing.

Melissa had thought that she still had a high chance of being with Matthew after she got to know Veronic a. She never imagined that Tiffany would be pregnant with his child after just a few days without seeing h im. Things were simply moving too fast.

“He‘s just a f*ckboy. My advice? Don‘t fall for him too deeply,” Veronica said to Melissa, her eyes staring off into space.

“We may be besties, Veronica, but I don‘t agree with you.” Melissa glared at Veronica, her lips pursing to gether. –“Matthew‘s the man of my dreams. He‘s dashing and rich. Though, he‘s got a bad eye for partners since he got engaged to Tiffa ny. Still, that doesn‘t change my impression of him.”

Melissa was his number one fan. As long as the world stood, he would remain the man of her dreams.

Veronica looked down for a moment before looking to the side to glance at the innocent and pure– hearted Melissa. She hesitated for a moment. “If, one day, you found out that the man of your dreams wasn‘t as perfect as you thought he was, would you be disappointed?”

“Of course not. No one is perfect. I love him, so everything he does is right.”

“Including getting married to Tiffany?”

“Tch, he may be engaged to that two– faced little b*tch, but no barrier can stay up forever as long as you have the right tools!” She gazed at Vero at her own face. “My beauty is unparalleled, and I am all natural. Everyone loves me. So, I believe that I can hook him. As long as they still haven‘t tied the knot, I have a 99% chance of succeeding!”

“Why 99%?” This young lady is drunk on her own confidence.

“Because he‘s just a step away from marrying Tiffany. The remaining 99 steps are right there for me.”

At Melissa‘s explanation, Veronica chuckled stiffly. She wasn‘t sure how to reply to that. “Oh, hehe…” Such an artless, naive girl.

After they left the Spinfluence building, Melissa bid goodbye to Veronica, saying that she was going off for

Turning time to 30 minutes before, right after Melissa and Veronica left the president‘s office but before they went their separate ways, Tiffany grabbed Mathew‘s hand. Sensing that he didn‘t loo

If Tiffany could notice it, then Matthew naturally would‘ve noticed it as well. He glanced at Tiffany with his c

“Mmhm. Don‘t worry, Matthew. I‘ll be sure to take good care of myself and our child.” Tiffany placed a hand over her belly and looked down. A glint shone in her eyes. with his child?

“Good.” Matthew silently shook off Tiffany‘s grasp and turned to walk over to his desk. He pulled up a sheaf of papers and began to work through his documents.

Tiffany approached him to stand by his side. After much hesitation, she finally got the nerve to probe him. plan for us to get married?”
