Her Biliionaire Husband (Veronica and Matthew) novel Chapter 399

Chapter 399 It’s a Prank

Veronica froze up. What the hell is he doing? He’s giving me a present now? She blinked and looked at Matthew. There was a dark look on his face, and if looks could kill, she would have been dead three times by now. Gotta cheer him up.

She smiled sheepishly. “Um, can you get up for a moment? I need to get the… present.” It was a coincidence that she ran into Larry on her birthday. She would have forgotten all about it if Matthew had not come and told her about it. Matthew was upset, but he still got up and let her get the door anyway.

A foreign waiter stood outside, and he handed a mysterious gift to her. It was a beautiful white box, and a black-gold ribbon was tied around it. “Hello, miss. Here’s your present.”

She closed the door and muttered, “What on earth is this? So mysterious.” I hate mysteries. They can be a real shocker if done wrongly.

Matthew leaned against the wall with his arms crossed. He was looking at the present with interest and waiting for her to open it.

Veronica licked her lips. It’s gonna get real messy if I don’t open this. “Calm down. I’ll open it right away.” She went over to the table and put the present on it, then unraveled the ribbon and slowly unboxed it. She was curious about what the content was, but the moment she saw the thing inside, she blanched. Veronica slammed the cover shut as fast as she could, and her arms looked like a blur for a moment.

“Hey, why are you keeping it a secret? Is it something good?” Matthew took a seat on the couch and leaned forward. He stared at the box and cocked his eyebrow.

“I-It’s nothing.” She mustered the best smile she could and puffed her cheeks, trying to act like a kid. “Oh, you can’t see this. My friend gave me this. I have to keep it a secret.” She smiled. F*ck you, Larry! *uck you! What the hell did I ever do to you? Why did you do this to me, you *sshole?

“A secret, eh?” He cocked his eyebrow and nodded seriously. “I see. You’d better keep that secret well, Roni. Don’t let it slip.” He sighed. “It’s getting late. I have to go back to the country for work.” He stood up and left.

“Huh? D-Don’t leave, Matthew…” That was what she said, but what she had in mind was, Please leave. Please, please, please, please, please. You can’t find out about the truth, or you’ll kill me.

However, he stopped right before he left the room, and the man turned around. Unlike his usually aloof self, this perfectly sexy man had a gentle smile on his face. “Well, if you want me to stay, then I guess I can stay.”

“What? Um…” Veronica froze up and tried her best to come up with an idea to make him leave. In the end, she got an idea. “Matt, um, it’s really sad that I came to Castron and didn’t get a chance to go to the biggest amusement park in the world. It’s my birthday today. Can you take me there?” She wanted to leave the hotel as soon as possible. If she got on Matthew’s bad side, she would probably die.
