The Life Of A Billionaires Wife

Chapter 193

“Let go!”

Veronica took a step back, but her movement was restrained because Melissa was clutching the hem of her trousers.

“Veronica, save me from here and I’ll give you 100,000. 100,00, alright? I-I can even write you a check.” Melissa continued to plead.

Next to them, Xavier was still in a fight and said to Veronica in between punches, “Roni, please. Please take Melissa away from here!”

“Heh!”

As a smirk tinged the edges of Veronica’s lips, a look of ruthlessness crept over her petite face. Tilting her head at a bodyguard next to her who was holding a gun in his hand, she narrowed her eyes, raised her hand, and hooked her finger at him.

Following her gaze, the bodyguard realized that she wanted the handgun, but he was afraid to pass it to her. In the end, he cast an imploring look at Matthew, who didn’t give him any instructions. :

When she didn’t receive any reaction from the bodyguard for a few seconds, Veronica snatched the handgun from him directly, pulled the bolt quickly, and fired a shot, aiming it accurately for Melissa’s right leg.

A deafening bang sounded in the air, sollowed by a shrilling cry of pain from Melissa.

The people who were fighting at the side stopped fighting and turned to watch this scene in disbelief.

Xavier’s eyes grew large, and he looked from Melissa to Veronica several times. At last, when he saw Melissa holding her wound and crying in pain, he was sure that Veronica had indeed fired a shot at her.

“What are you doing, Veronica?!” Shoving aside the security guard in front of him, he lunged at Veronica.

In that moment, Xavier, whose rationale was overwhelmed by his burning rage, carried his injured leg and hobbled toward Veronica. “You said that I’m your brother, but this is how you treat me… Uh!”
