Her Billionaire Husband novel Chapter 1081

Chapter 1081 Echoes of Sorrow, Whispers of Hope

Matthew, Veronica, and Skyler embarked on a journey to the picturesque countryside in search of Shirley's house. As they stepped out of the car, their gaze was drawn to Shirley's parents, who were cleaning the pigsty and engaged in a lively conversation.

With anticipation in her heart, Veronica emerged from the car, clutching a beautifully wrapped gift box. However, to her dismay, Shirley was nowhere to be found in the yard. Shirley's father, immersed in his work within the pigsty, raised his gaze upon seeing Veronica, his brows furrowing in an attempt to recognize the woman before him. "Who are you?" he inquired.

Regretful for not introducing herself earlier, Veronica extended a warm smile and spoke. "I apologize for not introducing myself earlier. My name is Veronica Murphy, Shirley's dearest friend. I came here with the sole purpose of meeting you."

Pleased with the revelation, Shirley's father, affectionately known as Mr. Wilson, set aside his water hose and broom, closing the iron gate of the pigsty as he stepped out. A hearty laugh escaped his lips. "Hahaha, so it's the three of you. Shirley didn't return with you?"

Veronica subtly glanced at Skyler, silently signaling him to remain composed.

"Shirley is still at work. We happened to pass by and thought of paying you a visit," Veronica explained, taking a step forward and presenting the gift in her hands. "These items were personally chosen by Shirley for you."

Shirley's father, a man of simple and honest nature, beheld the valuable items and smiled with contentment. "Ah, this little rascal spent a fortune on these gifts."

"Shirley is doing exceptionally well at her job and earning money. It's only fitting for her to shower you with such thoughtful presents," Skyler interjected, offering further clarification.

Accepting the gifts graciously, Shirley's father chuckled heartily. "Hahaha, alright then. I shall treasure the kindness of my child. Come, come, let's head inside."

Veronica politely shook her head, declining the offer. "There's no need, really. We have other matters to attend to, so we must take our leave. However, I promise that when I have the opportunity, I'll bring Shirley along to visit you."

"Very well, very well," Shirley's father acquiesced, his delight evident.

With a wave of her hand, Veronica bid her farewell. "Mr. Wilson, we shall take our leave now."

Matthew and Skyler echoed the gesture, expressing their own farewells to Shirley's father.
