Her Billionaire Husband novel Chapter 116

Chapier 116

The large movement caused the wound on Veronica‘s arm to start hurting as well.

Seeing her wrinkled face and pained screams, Matthew‘s cold heart melted and he did not reprimand her anymore. Instead, he allowed‘ her to snatch the ring from his hand, clutching it in her hand as if she was protecting a rare treasure.

“Do you… like him a lot?” Matthew hesitated before asking.

Veronica looked up at Matthew, not understanding where this scum got the confidence to dislike Xavier so much.

However, in the end, she currently needed to rely on the power of the Kings Family and had no choice but to spend time with Matthew. Still, she was afraid that Matthew had covetous thoughts about her, so she said, “Yes, I do. Is there a problem?”

“Since when were you a social climber? Are you really desperate enough to like someone like Xavier?” Matthew asked, his brows wrinkling in anger.

Everyone in Bloomstead knew that Xavier was a playboy who had seen countless women and spent his days flirting. This woman had no idea what she was talking about.

“Matthew, you‘re just my god-brother, not my real brother. What does it matter to you who I like? Don‘t think that just because you saved me, you can flaunt your authority over me, say whatever you want, or tell me what to do!” Veronica mocked him with a glare.

She felt dissatisfied. In any case, Xavier was her brother. Even if he was not perfect, he was not as bad as Matthew was making him out to be.

There was a chilly expression on Matthew‘s chiseled and handsome face. He lifted her chin with his long fingers as he leaned down slightly and warned, “As long as you‘re related to Grandma, you are a member of my family. I will never allow you to be with Xavier and bring shame to the Kings Family‘s name.”

“That‘s on you if you don‘t allow it. I‘ll just talk to Grandma later. Hmph.” Veronica brushed away Matthew‘s hand before she lay down on the bed in anger, giving him the cold shoulder.

Not long later, once her IV drip had run dry, Veronica tossed and turned in bed. She couldn‘t sleep, but as she didn‘t have her phone or anything else with her, she was.

bored out of her mind. She took a glance at Matthew. Seeing that he had gotten a laptop somewhere and was playing with it, she said, “Hey, Ma… Ugh… Bro, since you have a laptop already, can you let me play with your phone for a while?”

She always called him Matthew, and only called him bro when she wanted something!

Matthew had long since become familiar with Veronica‘s antics. He swept a glance at Veronica with his deep eyes, and then looked at the time in the lower right corner of his laptop. It was already two o‘clock at night.

She was still not sleepy..

Matthew had just been irritated, but now his cold heart softened a little. Carrying the

computer, he got up and walked to her side. “Scooch over.”

“What are you doing?”

“A new movie just released recently. Since we have nothing to do, let‘s watch it together,” he explained.

“Sure. I couldn‘t fall asleep anyway.” Veronica nodded profusely and moved to the left. She stretched out her hand and patted the left side of her bed, saying, “You can lie here. The hospital beds here are big, so it won‘t be crowded even if two people lie down together.”

Matthew changed back into a suit that made him look extremely capable and handsome. He retrieved a pillow from the sofa and placed it behind him as he sat next to Veronica. Then, he chose a sci–fi blockbuster on a streaming site and began watching after paying a fee.

However, not long after the movie started, Veronica shook her head and said, “I don‘t want to watch this.”

“Then what do you want to watch?”
