Chapter 482 Veronica Is Desperate

He thought that she wanted him to take her in. “So, is that okay?” She nodded eagerly as she gazed at him with unblinking eyes filled with anticipation.

“No, no, no! There is no way that’s happening. Really, it’s impossible.” He was utterly flustered as he waved his hand and turned her down. He was waving his hand so quickly that the shadows were overlapping. “You should just wait for Matthew before we speak about this matter again.”

Veronica nodded. “Okay, that’s fine.” Thus, she checked the time and saw that it was 1.30PM, and she immediately pleaded with Miguel. “Miggy, can you please order food for me? I’m hungry.”

With her lips pursed, she looked so pitiful that anyone would feel sorry for her. A soft-hearted person like Miguel naturally couldn’t bear to see her so down-and-out and desperate, so he asked, “What would you like to eat? I’ll order it for you.”

Until now, he still couldn’t figure out the secret between Matthew and Veronica or what Matthew was currently hiding from Veronica. When would their love-hate relationship come to a stop?

“I don’t know, either.” She hung her head as she sighed despondently. “Anything to eat will do. It’s been… two days since I ate anything.”

It was lucky that Veronica was smart enough and had already registered an account abroad. Therefore, all the company revenues were directly transferred to that particular bank account, so Matthew wouldn’t discover it.

On the other hand, it was indeed a fact that she didn’t have much money left on her, and it wasn’t an exaggeration for her to say something like this.

“You haven’t eaten for two days?” Miguel paused slightly while holding his phone, and his eyes were brimming with pity as he looked at her. “Okay, I’ll order food for you.”

Then, he contacted One Piece Restaurant and ordered two set lunches and one nutritious meal to be delivered to Luminesce Enterprise. After he had called for lunch for the both of them, he sat on the executive chair at his desk and texted Matthew.
