“Marriage?” Matthew had never thought about this sudden question before.
“That‘s right. We are already going to have a baby together; of course we‘ll have to get married. How wo uld our baby be able to live openly then? Shotgun marriages are a common occurrence nowadays, but it still won‘t be good if it‘s revealed that we got marri ed in a hurry.” Tiffany seized the opportunity to put pressure on Matthew and advance her plans. Veronica was currently her largest obstacle in marrying into the Kings Family. If s he could smoothly marry into the Kings Family, then Veronica would no longer be such a threat like she was now.
By then, offing Veronica would be as easy as flicking a finger.
Matthew furrowed his brows before he relaxed.
The two of them were silent for a long while. Just as Tiffany thought she wouldn‘t be getting an answer, Matthew spoke. “After my grandmother‘s birthday.”
His grandmother‘s birthday? Tiffany calculated the time until then; it was just over a month away. The ecs tasy she felt couldn‘t be held back as it showed on her face through a beautiful smile.
“Her birthday is soon. Why don‘t we try some wedding gowns and get some pre wedding pictures taken fi rst? The baby will grow day by day; a pre– wedding photoshoot then will affect the baby‘s growth.” Smart Tiffany attempted to strike the iron while it was hot, taking every opportunity she could to force Matthew to agree.
Pre– wedding photoshoot? An image of Veronica came to Matthew‘s mind. His gaze turned hollow as he stare d at the documents on his desk.
“Young Master Matthew, don‘t forget that you cannot have any weaknesses.”
“Young Master Matthew, you will only be able to solidify your status within the Kingses once you have a c hild.”
“Young Master Matthew, you aren‘t allowed to marry for love in the first place as the son in a distinguishe d family.”
All of a sudden, Matthew recalled all of Thomas‘ warnings. He fell into deep thought. Although he currentl y controlled the Spinfluence Group, Spinfluence‘s greatest
encimy was still his uncle, Conrad Kings!
And falling in love would actually be a weakness.
“All right,” Matthew replied, breaking the long silence.
Even though it took a mere two minutes for his answer, it felt like an entire century for Tiffany. Her eyes teared up at his answer. Instantly, she felt that all of her efforts paid off.
“Bloomstead‘s best pre– wedding photoshoot agencies are Florian Wedding Photographers, Ivari, Milano Photography…”
Just as Tiffany was rattling off all these photography agencies, Matthew raised a hand and interrupted he r. “You make the arrangements.”
“Um… Okay, I‘ll take a look at these agencies and discuss the final choice with you.”
“That works. You should go back. I still have some work to do.”
“Sure. Go ahead then. I‘ll… go home.”
Tiffany was beside herself with joy. She stood next to Matthew to look at the beautiful lines of his face. H er fists clenched. At last, she worked up the courage to bend down and press a kiss to his cheek. Then, s he straightened up and quickly stepped out of the office.
The moment the door closed, Tiffany walked briskly to the elevator. As she waited for the elevator, her excitement got the better of her, and tears bega n to stream down her face.
She did it. She succeeded at last. She was about to marry Matthew. Soon, she would become the lady of the Kings Family, becoming the most envied woman in
Bloomstead!
Meanwhile, Matthew gripped the documents in his hands tightly, his expression stormy and stiff. His eye twitched slightly as a strong look of disgust came to his eyes. Several moments later, h e pulled out a few wads of tissue paper to wipe at the spot on his face where Tiffany had kissed him. Fur y roiled in his chest. Property © 2024 N0(v)elDrama.Org.
When Tiffany returned home, she immediately shared this piece of good news with
Floch and Rachel. The entire family was overjoyed by this turn of events.
Rachel hugged Tiffany. “Congratulations. Your dream has come true, Tiffy. You‘re
abou to become the lady of the Kings household soon.”
“Haha, that‘s right. I‘m going to be Matthew‘s father–in– law soon. Let‘s see if that little dog who usually barks at me will have the courage to look down on me th
en.”
“What are you saying, Floch? Hardly anyone will dare to look down on you with your current status,” Rac hel jested.
“Why would there be no one? Look at the Kingses, the Neelsons, Lloyd, and those other wretched famili es. They all think little of me, simply because their companies are doing better than ours,” Floch ranted in displeasure.
Tiffany couldn‘t stand to hear this anymore. “The problem here now isn‘t with you, but with Veronica. She‘s back. I’m worried that she might stir up some trouble in the coming days.”
Normally, Tiffany wasn‘t worried about anything, since there would usually be someone there to clean up t

“Exactly. Your mother has a point.” Floch approved very much of Rachel‘s thoughts and plans. When she Floch admired about Rachel
“Mom, will this really work?” Tiffany wasn‘t exactly sure.
“Old Mrs. Kings currently adores Veronica. If anything happens to Veronica, the consequences will be dire do not miss the forest for the trees. You will have to bear with it now in order to successfully marry into the
“Yes, your mother is right. Listen to her.”
“Okay then, I won‘t butt heads with Veronica for now. But if my marriage with
Matthew goes through, then it‘s time for Veronica‘s funeral!” Viciousness rose in her sves, a juxtaposition
Meanwhile, Veronica was still busy with work at Konig‘s secretariat even though it was time to clock out. A
At the sound of the person‘s voice, Veronica lifted her head to see Xavier standing before her. He lifted an
“Not hungry. I‘ve got no appetite now.” Veronica expressionlessly lowered her head and continued to sort
“No need to busy yourself with those things; they aren‘t urgently needed. You can work on them tomorrow!” Xavier ordered to land on the documents in front of Veronica.
“I‘m really not hungry.” Already in an unpleasant mood, Veronica turned down Xavier‘s dinner invitation. She didn‘t want to eat; all she wanted was to calm down by herself.
