Her Biliionaire Husband (Veronica and Matthew) novel Chapter 519

Chapter 519 Matthew Is Dead

“I’ll say it one last time. I’ll kill you if you don’t let Matthew go!” Veronica said that in Chinese loud and clear to send the message across to Antheena. As expected, Antheena was unnerved when she heard that. “What are you trying to do, Veronica?”

Veronica’s red lips curved up into a smirk, and she whispered to Xavier, “It’s your choice if you want to die, but I don’t want Matthew to be hurt.”

Afterward, she looked at Antheena, who wasn’t far and ordered loudly, “Xavier has Matthew hidden somewhere. I’ll give you 30 minutes, Antheena. If you can’t give Matthew back, then be prepared to collect his dead body!”

As they were both women, Veronica could feel how deeply Antheena loved Xavier. So, Antheena would never allow Xavier to die on her watch.

Xavier was taken aback by Veronica’s tactics. He did not expect her to become so bright and calculative in just half a year that he had not seen her. However, she only had Matthew in her heart. There was no place for him there.

“Move!” she instructed as she grabbed his shoulders, pressed the cold muzzle against the back of his head, and took him with her. Thomas and the other bodyguards stood around, prepared to take action if anything went wrong.

Antheena stood opposite them, fuming as she watched Veronica taking Xavier away. She could only order her subordinates, “Go. I want everyone looking for Matthew.”

“Yes, Young Mistress.” They answered, got in the car, and drove off to look for him.

On the other side, Veronica got Xavier into the car. When Thomas opened the car door for Xavier to get in, Xavier looked meaningfully at the northwest corner of the square.

As he expected, that small action caught Veronica’s attention, and she looked over thoughtfully with furrowed brows.

When she looked in that direction, she was just in time to catch Xavier, who was entering the car, using his right hand to click on something on his left wrist.

“Wait!” she yelled as she grabbed his left wrist and pushed up the sleeve to see his digital watch in a countdown.

She shuddered as her heart leaped to her throat. The watch was counting down from six minutes.

No, it was now 5 minutes 54 seconds!

“Xavier!” She snarled through gritted teeth as her other hand holding the gun trembled.

Nevertheless, he only gave her a malicious sneer. “Kill me. I’m happy enough to know that he’ll be with me in hell.”

“You f*cking snake,” Veronica cursed and swung the gun’s handle at the back of his head with great force.

With just one hit, Xavier was out like a light and fell to the ground unconscious.

“Thomas, search the area! Matthew is around there,” she said and sprinted toward the northwest corner while setting up the timer on her phone.

Thomas, who was beside them, knew what had transpired and immediately understood the situation. “Tie him up.” He pointed at Xavier and ordered his subordinates, then added, “You lot guard him, and the rest join the search.”

By this time, Antheena had already ordered her people to leave and look for Matthew. As everyone left, she sat alone in the car and stared at the vehicle that held Xavier captive.

Veronica bolted across the square with all her might.

The port’s cool wind whizzed past her ear and blew on her face, but her heart sank to her stomach, and she only felt the bone-chilling cold.

Matthew, you can’t die. You can’t die! She chanted in her mind while shouting, “Matthew! Matthew!”

Her intuition was telling her that he was nearby.
