The Life Of A Billionaires Wife

Chapter 32 You Hate Me?

“This is what you call ‘not hating me’?”

As he listened to her speak, Matthew felt as if something that had taken root in his heart was suddenly pulled out. His throat tightened, and indescribable feelings struck his heart with a pang.

Veronica leaned against the headboard of the bed. Her complexion had yet to recover, and her body was still weak.

She looked at Matthew, feeling completely unperturbed. “You’re the richest man in Bloomstead, and you get to enjoy life every day; I, on the other hand, struggle to earn money just to survive. We are two people on parallel paths, so there shouldn’t be any intersection.”

Veronica slowly lowered her head, her fingertips scraping the quilt at a loss. “When I recover, I’ll go to Saint Hospital to settle my parents’ discharge.”

At that, Matthew’s eyebrows furrowed, and he remained silent.

Veronica continued, “I’m like an ant, the most insignificant existence in the vast sea of people. Young Master Matthew, I hope that you can give me a way out because I have to feed not only myself, but my parents too.”

“That’s all? Didn’t you go to great lengths to make me fulfill your and Xavier’s wishes?”

Ever since he met Veronica, this was the only time she had such a serious and solemn conversation with him.

For a moment, Matthew even believed her.

“Young Master Matthew, as I said, the only connection between me and you was our unformed child. Now that the baby is gone, we have nothing to do with each other anymore. Understand?”

Veronica raised her voice when she spoke the last word, then she looked up and glared at Matthew. In the end, her pale lips twitched. “Young Master Matthew, are you trying to force me to the edge? If that’s the case, why did you save me yesterday? Heh…”

Matthew simply stared at her with cold, profound eyes, trying to penetrate through her eyes into her mind.

However, he couldn’t ‘see’ anything.

Without saying anything more, he turned and left.

…

Meanwhile, Xavier, who drank heavily the previous night, woke up and rubbed his aching head. “I drank too much again.”

He lay on the bed for a while, then suddenly remembered that Veronica called him several times the day before, so he returned her calls.
