CHAPTER 150

Her Billionaire Husband Chapter 150

Veronica was endlessly, unceasingly cursing Matthew on the inside, and if looks really could kill, he wo uld have been dead by Veronica‘s gaze.

The police officers, who were spectators of the argument, stared at the duo in silence.

They had somewhat figured out that Veronica and Matthew probably had a relationship more complex t han one could imagine.

Hence, this situation probably had more than meets the eye.

HIT

The deafening silence went on for a while before the leader of the police officers intervened. “Young Ma ster Matthew, why don‘t the both of you try to talk it out first? We can also go by standard procedure if y ou both can‘t get to the bottom of this yourselves later.”

“Thank you for your help, Officer Garth,” Matthew replied with a small nod, exuding incomparable elegance with just a light movement.

As soon as the police officers had left the hall, Veronica boldly asked with arms akimbo, “What the hell do you want, Matthew? I already returned you your wine, so can I go now?”

Instead of answering her question, he coldly stared at her as his smooth brows raised. “Do you know the penalty for grand larceny?” Hearing that, Veronica pursed her lips together.

How could she not know?

She knew it better than anyone else.

She then let out an arrogant ‘hmph‘ and complained, “You‘re considered my brother. How is it consider ed theft if I only took a bottle of your wine?” Her emotions were running so high that she had to hold her self back in case she accidentally assaulted him.

She knew that she wouldn‘t win a physical fight against him anyway, but it would definitely feel good if s he could just let out whatever she was bottling up inside.

“It is theft as long as you take something that isn‘t yours,” Matthew responded humorously. “I have kno wn you for so long to only find out now that you don‘t know the law,” Matthew spoke slowly in a calm m anner and he didn‘t seem to be

particularly angry.

However, Veronica felt as though he was ridiculing her.

She was almost baffled by his attitude, but her eyes kept glaring at the man before her. At that moment, her anger was at its peak.

.

The silent war went on for a while as they looked at each other unmovingly before her red lips finally pa rted. “It only took me a short while after knowing you to learn that people can be ruthless when they wa nt something. What is the point of complicating things like this? Are you doing this just so I would stay b ehind to keep Grandma company?”

And find out more secrets about Conrad from Grandma? she quietly thought to herself.

His handsome features turned frigid as soon as she uttered those words. It wasn‘t as though it was the first time anyone had said that he was ruthless, but coming from Veronica directly? It certainly felt like she had plunged a whole sword into him.

The usually–calm Matthew—clearly agitated by her provocation— asked Veronica in return with his eyebrows raised, “What else do you think you are capable of, if not that?”

Hearing his question. Veronica couldn‘t help but let out a snort.

Huh. As expected, she thought.

“Sure. I‘ll stay, but I‘ve been feeling homesick and wish to go back for a while. I‘ll come back to Bloomst ead after that.” Thinking that this was a good chance to make Matthew drop the case, Veronica agreed verbally but was actually planning on giving Matthew whateve r excuse she could after so that she won‘t need to return to Bloomstead.

Finally, everything was going as Matthew had planned.

Hearing her reply, he watched her quietly before swiftly getting up from his seat and heading toward the police officers. He then withdrew the case with the reason that it all had been nothing but a misunderstanding.

After the case was closed, they both left the police station with Veronica marching angrily ahead while Matthew silentl y watched her from behind.

There were hardly any cars driving on the road by the time they were outside— not even a taxi was in sight.

Looking around in the middle of the night, she couldn‘t help but grumble, “Where are the cars, man?”

Meanwhile, Matthew had already made his way into his car. He then drove his car, only to stop before Veronica and proceeded to lightly honk the car horn twice. “Get. in. I’ll take you home,” he said after roll ing down the window.

At that, she let out a huff and scowled at him. “Save it. What if you charge me a ridiculous fee for riding in your ridiculously luxurious customized car? I can‘t even bear the thought of touching it,” she scoffed before walking away.

Even though she could conveniently order a ride using her phone, she decided against it in an attempt t o save a few bucks in her pocket— she did spend over a million dollars just the night before after all. In addition to that, considering how sh e wasn‘t sleepy despite it being already midnight, she chose to take a stroll by the roadside while enjoying the gentle breeze blowing in her face.

However, she merely took a few steps when she suddenly noticed that Matthew had unknowingly caug ht up with her and was currently walking right beside her.

Immediately, she halted her steps and glared between Matthew and his parked car. “Are you crazy? Why are you following me when you have a car right there?”

“My car broke down. I just called the tow company,” he replied with a shrug.

A bright smile instantly appeared on Veronica‘s face after Matthew said that, “Ha! Serves you right! Kar ma is a b*tch, eh?” she cheered in between giggles.

She laughed out loud as soon as her mood was made better, and even though her unadulterated laugh ter wasn‘t the least bit refined, it was a sound that felt truly genuine and pure.

Seeing her chortle made the corners of his sensual lips raise unconsciously as she gave him a sense o f warmth like a spring breeze in a chilly winter. At that, the cold mask he had on was instantly melted an d replaced by a gentle and tranquil expression.

He had his hands placed in the pockets of his suit pants as he continued to enjoy his saunter with Vero nica.

Since it was the beginning of autumn, the nights were getting colder.

Veronica began to shrink herself as she felt the cold slowly getting to her. Since she had left her condo minium in a hurry earlier, she was only dressed in a thin blouse

that could barely protect her from the cold.

Noticing this, Matthew swiftly removed his coat and tossed it at Veronica. “Hold that for me,” he told her .

“Why should I?” she quickly argued in return as she heard his ‘commanding‘ tone.

“Oh?” He tilted his head to look at her. “I just withdrew the case not long ago and now you‘re already tur ning against me?” This content belongs to Nô/velDra/ma.Org .

“I…” She started to retort, but she couldn‘t think of anything to say.

Fine, who cares? Good women don‘t argue with trashy men anyway. Lowering myself is such an un– classy thing to do! She calmed herself down with her thoughts.

Hit by another cold breeze, she quickly threw the coat in her hand over her shoulders. “Are you really no wearing this? I‘ll wear it, then. Don‘t you dare collect a fee from me because of this!” –

“I won‘t.” Hearing his airily reply, Veronica sarcastically remarked, “Now, that‘s more like it. I see that you

Instead of acknowledging her jab, he asked, “When are you going back to your hometown?”

“The day after tomorrow. Ah, no —” she said after thinking for a bit. “It is already the middle of the night now. If you count the hours, I‘m g

Mythpoint was everybody‘s dream destination.

Veronica, too, was once tempted by the hustle and bustle of this place, but alas, she had to face reality.

Not only was the cost of living here high, but it was also fairly fast– paced. A place that was full of deceit and mind games was not for her.

She couldn‘t help but miss her parents and master who were still back at home sometimes.

Learning that Veronica was departing soon, Matthew‘s face dimmed, and he turned to look at the woman walking beside him.

Strolling with the breeze suddenly felt like a rare luxury for them to find peace within the busy city.

A feeling of wanting the moment to last, too, started to creep out from a corner of his heart.

“Have you ever considered working at Spinfluence Group?” he suddenly asked.

Veronica might be going back to her hometown, but Matthew wished to leave a spot for her in the company when she decided it was time for her to head back to Bloomstead.

“Forget it.” She gave an outright rejection. “That is suicide for me. What if something were to happen at the company or something. It will be a big mess for me to clean if you decide to send me to the police ag
