Her Billionaire Husband

Chapter 57

After the woman had left, Matthew asked Elizabeth, “Why did you ask her to tag along?”

Elizabeth let out a sigh and explained, “Sigh, you are not getting any younger, so how could you not have a woman by your side to take care of you? After all, she’s your fiancée; you should start getting used to having her by your side.”

She darted a look at him and continued with a hint of mockery in her tone, “You were the one who wanted to be engaged with her in the first place. What’s wrong? Are you regretting your decision?”

At first, Elizabeth tried everything she could to bring about the engagement between Matthew and Veronica, but he was unexpectedly stubborn to the point where he refused to agree to it. However, what puzzled Elizabeth even more was his current ambiguous attitude toward Tiffany. C0pyright © 2024 Nôv)(elDrama.Org.

“No,” he responded with a cold expression, a deadpan look on his handsome face.

“That’s a relief.” She waved her hand. “The matter in Castron is pertinent, so you should quickly pack up and head over.”

Matthew remained silent. He retracted his gaze and left the ward before giving

Thomas a call.

Thomas’ phone rang for a while before he answered, “Young Master Matthew, what’s the matter?”

“You have to ensure Veronica’s safety for the entire duration I’m at Castron,” Matthew instructed over the call.

On the other end of the line, Thomas fell silent for an instant before he responded with a question, “Sir, don’t you think that you’re paying too much attention to Miss Murphy?”

As Matthew’s personal assistant, it was his responsibility and obligation to constantly remind Matthew to be on top of things. “You have once said that you will focus on your career and you don’t wish for anyone to become a weakness that would threaten your performance.”

Thomas knew Matthew better than anyone else as he had been following Matthew for more than ten years.

He suddenly slammed the table in rage.

Upon hearing the sudden news, Tiffany was overwhelmed by mixed feelings that consisted of mostly fear.

She was afraid that the incident would be exposed in which Matthew would discover the truth. If that were to happen, it would destroy her reputation and taint the image that she had established for over twenty years!

At that thought, a hint of murderous intent flashed across her eyes. Rage started to grow inside her as she growled through gritted teeth, “I’ve said that she will become the Larson Family’s greatest threat if she continues to live. You two have harmed her adoptive parents, but you two have suddenly become merciful and want to spare her life by imprisoning her in a mental hospital for the rest of her life. Isn’t that ridiculous?”

When they had a discussion about that incident, Tiffany had already suggested getting rid of Veronica once and for all.

However, although both Floch and Rachel resented Veronica, they couldn’t bear the thought of killing her.

Whenever they were about to do something to her, Veronica’s face, which looked exactly like Tiffany, would surface in their minds and soften their hearts.

Rachel turned to sit on the couch, helplessly leaning against the furniture as she sighed with her head lowered. Her elegant bearing as an honorable woman of the family had vanished and she seemed to have aged at that instant.

Floch quietly took a cigarette from the case and lit it up, smoking as he spoke, “Matthew has already assigned people to search for Veronica. If he finds that b*tch, not only me but the entire Larson Family will be doomed. We have to bear in mind the fact that Old Mrs. Kings has acknowledged that b*tch as her god-daughter.”

Tiffany was pissed and felt that the two of them were too soft-hearted, which would only lead them to failure.

Nonetheless, she was unable to understand that as Veronica’s parents, they couldn’t bear to kill her no matter how much they had despised her, although Veronica had not been by their side for more than twenty years. This was also the reason why they had hesitated for a long time before forcing themselves to instruct for the fire to happen that night.

Yet, the husband and wife had regretted their actions after that incident. In the end, Veronica managed to survive, which caused them to exhale in relief. They were probably hoping that they wouldn’t commit too many sins while they were still alive.

“This…” Rachel turned to Floch, unable to make a decision.

“If you don’t want to kill Veronica, we have to be prepared in advance and wait for her revenge on the Larson’s Family. As long as she lives, she definitely won’t let the Larson Family off the hook. The secret news posted by the famous influencer on Twitter is the strongest evidence that what I said will surely happen!” Tiffany didn’t continue after she said her piece as she didn’t want to waste any more time on her parents.

All she had in mind now was to pack her luggage and head to Castron with Matthew. She would try her very best to maintain her relationship with him in order to secure her position as ‘Mrs. Kings.

The couple watched as Tiffany jogged upstairs before they looked at each other.

Floch darted a look at Rachel. “Well, I’ve said before that we can’t keep Veronica around.”

Although there was a tiny shred of reluctance inside him to take Veronica’s life because he knew that she was his biological daughter, he still weighed the advantages and disadvantages of the situation like a businessman since he was an experienced one himself.

If it hadn’t been Rachel, who had been stubbornly insisting on allowing Veronica to live, he would have already ordered someone to take Veronica’s life.

Rachel plopped herself on the couch; her gaze became hollow as she looked outside the window. “We will listen to what Tiffany said this time. Let’s eradicate her to prevent future problems.”

What Tiffany had said made a lot of sense. The Larson Family was about to collaborate with the Kings Family through marriage, so they couldn’t afford to see anything going wrong at this point.

Plus, Elizabeth had taken a liking to Veronica and acknowledged her as her god daughter. If Veronica were to escape to Elizabeth and report the incident to the older woman or contact popular influencers on Twitter to expose all the sins that they had committed, the outcome would be disastrous.
