Chapter 347 The Truth Is Out

Back in the corridor earlier, Conrad must have told Yvonne something before she decided to remain on the phone with him. This was the only possibility that would make her touch the phone in her pocket so nervously.

“When I asked you out for lunch today, why was Xavier there too?” Veronica did not directly bring up Conrad’s situation.

“Oh, Xavier and Conny happened to be with me today when you called, so I took them with me,” Yvonne answered truthfully.

“Ha.” Veronica smiled coldly. She leaned back and tilted her head before sending a cold stare at Yvonne. “Then, do you know what Xavier has done to me today?”

“Huh? What?” Yvonne inexplicably grew a little nervous, as if Veronica’s gaze was sharp enough to pierce through her.

With her burning eyes drilling into Yvonne, Veronica did not directly answer her question but asked instead, “Yvonne, tell me, do you think I should believe you?”

Her sudden sternness and aloof gaze made Yvonne feel uneasy, as if she was sitting on a bed of needles. She pursed her lips and subconsciously hugged the pillow tightly with both arms while stammering, “We… We’re good friends, so why can’t you believe me? Hahaha, don’t you… think so?”

“Yeah, I do.” Veronica nodded and shifted her body to the side. Just as Yvonne avoided her sharp gaze and turned to look elsewhere, she quickly reached into Yvonne’s pocket and took out her phone.
