CHAPTER 1162 SOMETHING TO TAKE CARE OF
Veronica was also considering Matthew's situation.
After the incident with the hidden clan, he was no longer a coward. However, since he publicly announce their fake divorce because of Flavian, it was enough to prove the seriousness of the situation, especially since Flavian had not contacted Matthew for 20 years. His appearance just seemed too intentional.
If she maintained being divorced from him, it could also help him avoid unnecessary worries.
"After you have investigated Flavian and resolved the matter between you two, we can consider restoring our marriage publicly," she said.
Matthew leaned to the side, propped his head on his hand on the bed, and uttered with concern, "Rumors and gossip about you are spreading online. They're hurting you."
He had publicly announced his divorce from Veronica, claiming that they had peacefully divorced, but he couldn't stop the keyboard warriors from speculating.
"We have gone through dangerous situations with the hidden clan, so why would we care about these rumors and gossip? Matt, I am not as fragile as you think," Veronica reassured him firmly, her eyes looking even more determined. Content © copyrighted by .
Only by maintaining a fake divorce status with Matthew could she make him feel at ease and fully focus on dealing with Flavian.
Seeing that Matthew still had concerns, she continued, "Okay, let's keep it a secret for now. When you
have thoroughly investigated Flavian's conspiracy, we can remarry publicly, alright?"
"Okoy," Motthew ogreed this time.
At the thought of Eviette, she osked, "You hove such o good relotionship with Eviette. Are you sure she hos no feelings for you?"
Motthew smiled in response. "No, there's someone else she likes."
"Are you sure?"
Veronico olwoys felt thot Eviette liked Motthew o lot.
"I'm sure," Motthew replied firmly, completely convinced thot Eviette hod no feelings for him.
Veronico osked obout Eviette severol times before this, but Motthew never hod the intention of shoring their post with her. From there, she knew thot things between them were not thot simple.
Since Motthew wos olso not o simple person, it wos reosonoble thot his friends hod mysterious bockgrounds.
Although they were morried, they still hod their own privocy. Veronico would not pry into it unreosonobly.
The some went for the motter with Flovion.
Initiolly, Motthew chose to keep it o secret, but now he hod voluntorily told her.
She believed thot one doy, he would olso voluntorily tolk to her obout his post with Eviette.
Suddenly, the quiet room wos interrupted by the sound of o ringing phone.
"Okay," Matthew agreed this time.
At the thought of Eviette, she asked, "You have such a good relationship with Eviette. Are you sure she has no feelings for you?"
Matthew smiled in response. "No, there's someone else she likes."
"Are you sure?"
Veronica always felt that Eviette liked Matthew a lot.
"I'm sure," Matthew replied firmly, completely convinced that Eviette had no feelings for him.
Veronica asked about Eviette several times before this, but Matthew never had the intention of sharing their past with her. From there, she knew that things between them were not that simple.
Since Matthew was also not a simple person, it was reasonable that his friends had mysterious backgrounds.
Although they were married, they still had their own privacy. Veronica would not pry into it
unreasonably.
The same went for the matter with Flavian.
Initially, Matthew chose to keep it a secret, but now he had voluntarily told her.
She believed that one day, he would also voluntarily talk to her about his past with Eviette.
Suddenly, the quiet room was interrupted by the sound of a ringing phone.
The familiar melody was clearly Matthew's ringtone.
He reached for his phone and answered it. "What's the matter?"
Veronica couldn't hear what the person on the other end of the phone was saying, but she heard Matthew say, "Okay. I'll be right there."
It seemed like something serious had happened.
After hanging up the phone, he said to Veronica, "Roni, there's an issue at the factory in the eastern province. I have to go there, so I might not be in Bloomstead for the next few days. You must be careful on your own, alright?. Oh, I've also arranged an assistant on set—"
"Hold up!" Veronica interrupted him. "I'm still a rookie. It's not appropriate for me to have an assistant. Besides, I'm used to being free and easy. I don't need any assistance, or I'll treat it as you sending someone to supervise me."
She deliberately said that.
Matthew smiled helplessly, hugged her, and sent a gentle peck on her neck. Leaning close to her ear, he whispered, "I don't want to leave. What should I do?"
"Go on. Get your matters done already," he urged while patting his chest.
"One more hour won't make a difference." Matthew smirked mischievously. Then, he suddenly flipped her over and launched another attack.
