Her Billionaire Husband novel Chapter 1060

Chapter 1060 Flavian Is Here

"The dust has settled. There is already someone to succeed as the leader of the hidden clan, and I'll never return to that place ever again. Everything that Matt did before, he did it for me. You have to keep this a secret. Do you understand?" Veronica asked.

Blood drained from Daniella's face. "How… How did things turn out this way?"

"Were you and Matthew hurt in the hidden clan?" Tony asked in worry, looking at her from top to bottom.

Veronica immediately shook her head and bounced around. "Look, I'm fine." Then, she approached Daniella, wrapped her arms around her shoulders, and assured her, "Don't worry. We're fine, and we have returned safely. On the other hand, Shirley was hurt because of me. Crayson cut her face and disfigured her. Please be nicer to her in the future."

Daniella let out a sigh. "So, that's what happened." Then, she stared at Veronica and pulled her into an embrace. "It's amazing that you're back. We've been so worried and scared the whole time, but we're just farmers with limited abilities. I'm sorry we can't be of any help to you, my child."

"Oh no, Mom. What are you saying?" Veronica couldn't help but chuckle. "I told you guys everything because I don't want you to worry. Furthermore, I returned to the hidden clan because Crayson blindfolded and kidnapped me, and I only managed to return after two weeks of boat ride. As you know, the hidden clan is situated in a place that few have heard of. Therefore, I can't find my way there and am forbidden to return forever. So, you don't have to worry about me leaving, and you definitely shouldn't feel that I'm not good enough for Matthew," she assured, fearing that they would start overthinking things regarding Matthew once more.

Sure enough, after Tony heard that his daughter was the heir to the hidden clan and almost became the leader but gave up everything for the sake of being together with Matthew, he straightened his back and said proudly, "There's no doubt that my daughter is worthy of him."

"Don't spout nonsense!" Daniella chided. "Just keep these things to yourself, or it will harm Veronica."

"Okay, anything you say." Tony nodded and smiled, raising his head as he suddenly felt his mood getting lighter. "I have to have a drink with Matthew in the afternoon to celebrate your safe return and a few more to thank him for taking care of you."

A worried Veronica reminded, "Don't mention anything about the hidden clan in Matt's presence. He's scared that you'll be worried and forbade me from telling you. If he finds out about this, he'll blame me for my rash decision."

"Got it."

"Don't worry, my child. I won't speak a word about it. Even though I grew up in a village, I can judge what is appropriate to say and what is not."

The Murphy couple made their promise.

A smile spread across Veronica's face, and she wrapped her arms around them. "Dad, Mom, I'm so glad that you're my parents." She warned them not to mention this in front of Matthew because she feared they would ask him for more details, and he would slip up.

After all, she basically only told them the good things that happened in the hidden clan, claiming that the current leader of the clan only let her off because she had saved him. That was why she was only forbidden from ever returning. With that, her adoptive parents wouldn't worry that she would leave them.

In the afternoon, Matthew cooked for the family personally and prepared a table full of delicious food. Alas, before they could start eating at the table, a servant approached and informed him, "Sir, an elderly man is at the door. He says he's Flavian and would like to meet you."

Flavian? That's Flavian Kings!
