CHAPTER 980

Her Billionaire Husband Chapter 980-Walking Into a Trap

Dominik fell silent.

There was no way for him to verify the authenticity of Matthew’s statement, but he had to admit that Zac was a very paranoid man.

Zac had been spending long evenings discussing his plans with Dominik. His speeches painted a grand blueprint for a perfect future that swayed Dominik, who eventually chose to work with Zac.

Matthew did not wait for Dominik to reply. After a moment of silence, he said, “If this is the case, I’ll talk to Princess Eleanor.”

His implicit message was that if Dominik refused to work with him, he would work with Eleanor instead.

The moment those two worked together, Dominik would stand a very slim chance of becoming the head of the clan.

“D-Don’t,” Dominik quickly rebutted. “Eleanor was heavily punished by Mom after she saved you last time. I do not want to see her hurt again.”

On the surface, it sounded so much like he was protecting Eleanor.

For a moment, even Dominik believed in his own lie.

“Does that mean you are willing to aid me, Prince Dominik?” The tension in Matthew’s body faded slightly as a glimmer of hope presented itself.

“I can help you, but you have to promise me one thing.”

“What is it?”

“After we save Veronica, the two of you must leave the clan.” Dominik was not a fool.

Matthew felt closest to Eleanor, but the moment something happened to Veronica, he asked for help from Dominik instead of Eleanor. Why?

Was it only because he knew where Veronica was being held?

No, there was another possibility.

Eleanor likely loved Matthew, but her love was not reciprocated. That meant Veronica’s kidnapping and the potential memory seal had been good news for Eleanor.

That meant Matthew only asked Dominik for help because she refused to help him.

Thus, there was no harm at all in helping Matthew in this matter.

Furthermore, if they left the clan, Dominik would have one less competitor. By then, it would be easy enough for him to get rid of Eleanor with Zac’s help.

“I was just about to mention that to you, Your Highness,” Matthew said. “After we rescue Roni, I was hoping you could help us leave the clan without anyone finding out.”

Veronica would surely be incredibly disappointed by Waylen after what happened. There was no way she would continue to suffer his threats anymore.

Unless…

“No problem. Do remember the promise you made today, Matthew.” Dominik paused and continued, “I will send my man to work with you. He will bring you to where Veronica is most likely being held.”

“Thank you.”

Matthew happily hung up the phone.

As he placed his phone to the side, he leaned back and heaved a sigh of relief. Then, he asked Xavier, “Do you want to go with us?”

“Take care of yourself first!”

There was a harsh tone in Xavier’s voice.

After all, it was the biggest concession possible for him to sit in the same car as Matthew.

The two fell silent as their sedan continued on its way.

Soon, Matthew received a call from an unknown number.

As he was still driving, he put the phone on the loudspeaker as he answered the call. “Who is it?”

“This is Noah Finnegan. I am under orders of Prince Dominik to lead you to a certain location,” said the man on the other end of the call. This belongs to : ©.

“Where are you now?” Matthew asked.

“South of the Tempest Bridge at the Eastern Summit of the Desolate Cliffs.”

“Very well. I’ll be there soon.” Matthew hung up and sped toward the Desolate Cliffs.

Xavier spent a moment of silence in thought before asking, “What if Dominik set a trap? Aren’t you afraid of walking into one?”

“I’m betting that he wouldn’t dare.”

There was a reason for Matthew’s confidence; Dominik wanted to be the head of the clan, and he was running against Eleanor and Veronica for it.

If Matthew died, that would only cause Veronica to hate the Ledgers even more. It would give her motivation to become the head of the clan instead.
