Chapter 403 Xavier Has Kidnapped Monica

Matthew’s words woke Skyler up from his drowsiness. “What? Pregnant?”

“Hmm,” Matthew hummed in response. The other party kept quiet for a moment before bursting into laughter. “Matt, are you kidding me?”

He laughed non-stop at Matthew as though it was the funniest joke of the universe. Matthew’s countenance darkened as his lips were pursed into a thin line. “Do you have a death wish?”

The sinister threat sent chills down Skyler’s spine and he covered his face in an attempt to hold in his laughter. “I mean, Matt, you’ve gone overboard. I’m just happy for you. You’ve finally wished to have a son to play with and I’m going to be another father figure!”

“Shut up!” Matthew snorted. “Just answer me.” “Oh, about that.” Skyler cleared his throat before saying, “Let me think.”

Silence dawned upon the other side of the line and Matthew could scarcely hear a laughter afterward. Little did he know that Skyler was guffawing while covering his face with the blanket.

It took him a while to calm down. “That’s not a problem. I’ll prescribe some supplements that are good for pregnancy. As long as you do your best, you can get yourself a football team. It won’t be a big deal.”

“I’ll ask Thomas to retrieve it in the morning.”

“Sure. Looks like you can’t wait any longer, huh? Good, good.” Skyler started the teasing before letting out a hearty laughter again.

Matthew’s face dimmed and he terminated the call.

On the other hand, Veronica returned to her place by car and unpacked her stuff when Sean suddenly rang her.

“Have you returned to the country, Veronica?” he asked in concern. “I heard you’re feeling under the weather. Are you feeling better now?”

Matthew told him. “Yeah, I’m all better now, but I didn’t attend the showcase that
