Her Biliionaire Husband

Chapter 5

of the car, I gave her the ring that was handed down in our family. You should know what this ring means, Grandma,” Matthew said while raising his left hand to show the ring he was wearing. Looking at the black diamond ring, Veronica instantly recalled what had happened. No wonder there was a ring in my pocket after I saved Matthew that day! Turns out that he put it in my pocket when I saved him, she thought. However, the ring went missing after Tiffany popped up the next day, and she wondered at the time where the ring had gone. At the moment, it seemed that Tiffany had stolen it, having known long ago that the ring belonged to Matthew! Veronica stood up. “That ring was—” “Why are you here, Veronica? I didn’t expect to meet you here.” Tiffany instinctively interrupted Veronica. Suppressing the shock within her, she held Matthew’s wrist and said, “Veronica, he’s the guy I told you about—the guy that I risked my life saving.” Then, she introduced Veronica to Matthew, saying, “Matthew, she’s Veronica, a friend I got acquainted with while doing food delivery to experience life.” Veronica was really disgusted by Tiffany’s brazen-faced lies. There was even a moment when she wanted to speak out and unmask the lady’s nauseatingly hypocritical and ugly nature, but she decided against it on second thoughts.

Rather than getting herself in trouble, she’d better wait and see what was going to happen. Matthew sized Veronica up with narrow, piercing eyes that grew more and more fathomless. “Is that so?” Tiffany said, “What a coincidence, Veronica! I didn’t expect to meet you here. Do you know Matthew too?” She remembered Matthew telling her that his family had arranged a marriage for him. Could Veronica be the woman that Old Mrs. Kings is trying to fix him up with? But how did she get to know the Kingses? Tiffany was on tenterhooks deep down. Veronica didn’t bother to answer Tiffany, who was addicted to acting. Instead, she said to Elizabeth, “Madam, since Young Master Matthew already has a girlfriend, I’ve got no reason to be here anymore. I’m going back first.” She was sounding Elizabeth out to plan her next move. She had to be cautious against Matthew, who was powerful and ruthless, and the Larsons, who would threaten her at every moment using her adoptive parents. Seeing that Veronica
