Chapter 431 Matthew’s Schemes

The conversation fell into silence until Hendrey asked in ‘surprise’, “What… Did you say? Tiffany, she’s… she’s gone?”

Although Veronica could not see his expression right now, she could already feel the sadness in him. It was not an agonizing feeling, but he could not pretend that nothing had happened before, considering the fact that he had shared a past with Tiffany.

“Her funeral is over, though.” In other words, Veronica was wondering if he was still going to return. Yet, the man merely sighed and did not reply.

“Hendrey, are you okay?”

“I just need some time alone,” he responded before hanging up the phone without hesitation. Du… Du… Du…

With her leaning against his shoulder, she listened to their childhood stories attentively. It was probably because she liked him so much that she was rather curious about his past.
