Her Biliionaire Husband (Veronica and Matthew) novel Chapter 416

Chapter 416 Marriage Certificate

“W-What does that mean?”

“Exactly what it sounds like,” Matthew said with a cold chuckle. “Get it yet?”

“You—For crying out loud, Matthew, you call yourself a human? You’re no better than an animal, f*ck you! Veronica must have been kicked in the head to fall in love with someone like you!” Xavier snapped incredulously. Then, he threw his head back and laughed maniacally. “But now that I think about it, I can see why you’re so obsessed with her. She has incredibly soft skin and there’s a certain part of her body that’s… Well, let’s just say it’s deliciously tight, shall we? I’m guessing you didn’t get that far with her yet, huh? She’s practically untouched!”

Men often lost all sense of reason when their rage was at its peak and Xavier was downright furious after seeing the humiliation his sister had been put through. He wanted to probe Matthew’s anger and see the man snap.

Unfortunately for him, Matthew had no plans to let him have the satisfaction. Granted, his fingers tightened on the cigarette he was smoking, but there was hardly a trace of emotion on his handsome face as he raised his free hand to signal the bodyguards. The bodyguards understood what he meant and within the next second, Xavier was dragged before the guards and had his clothes shredded on the spot.

He tried to struggle, but he was no match for the guards who eventually pacified him and reduced him into a defeated heap.

Grunting, he then spat out menacingly, “Kill me if you’ve got the guts, Matthew! Come on, do it!”

Presently, he was pinned in the most embarrassing position against the chair. One of the bodyguards held Xavier’s hands firmly on his back and held his head in place by grabbing a fistful of his hair. One of his legs was broken, so he could not retaliate even if he wanted to. He suffered in silence while the guards had their way.

Having never witnessed something like this before, Melissa started crying and whimpering as she lay on the ground like a pile of trash. Her legs were untied and now that the other guards had turned to target Xavier, she was left alone. She scooted into an upright position and used her knees to pull the rag out of her mouth. Now that she could speak again, she shrieked miserably, “Why are you doing this to him, Matthew? Let him go! Please, you can’t do this to him!”

She tried to crawl over to Xavier, but just as she was about to throw herself over him to shield him, one of the guards kicked her to the side.

“Ow!” she yelled as she fell backward. When she hit the ground, the impact seemed to have rattled her brains and her whole body ached.

“Your sibling bond is the stuff of fairytales,” Matthew drawled sarcastically with an insidious smirk, though there was hatred and contempt in his eyes.

He never considered himself a nice person and he had already let the Crawford siblings off the hook for Veronica’s sake. Since they had not appreciated his mercy then, they could only reap what they sowed now.

“It would be unkind of me to deprive these siblings the chance to show how much they care for one another,” Matthew added icily with a humorless smile. Then, he rose to his feet and gave Troy a pointed look.

“Yes, sir,” Troy said with a nod while a chill ran down his spine when he felt the air around Matthew grow cold. As harsh as the punishments were, he had to agree that Xavier, Melissa and Tiffany all got what they deserved.

The trio were admittedly birds of the same feather; they all resorted to underhanded and ruthless ways to get what they wanted and they were used to plotting against others as well as scheming. It was only too bad that they picked on the wrong person this time!

Matthew walked away and ignored the torrent of abuse and howls of agony which echoed after him. Xavier and Melissa should have known that things would not end well for them and no one could be blamed for their lack of better judgment.

Tiffany, on the other hand, could not die just yet. If she did, then no one would go to Africa with the Crawford siblings.

That afternoon, Centian Group officially went out of business. Hendric tried to look for Xavier and Melissa, but when he could not find them, he decided to rally the other family members and left Bloomstead.

The company might not have cash or capital, but Hendric had been in the business world long enough to know how important it was to save up for a rainy day. He knew that his life would be a mess if the company crumbled and the debt collectors started calling round the house to demand payment with interest, so he packed up and left the city with his savings.
