Her Billionaire Husband novel Chapter 1172

Chapter 1172 Prince Liam Doesn’t Welcome Us, so Let’s Leave

"Well, we're all here now… Hahaha!"

Liam fixed his intense, enthralled gaze on Veronica.

And that look made Matthew feel particularly uneasy.

Veronica shrugged off Tiffany and simply grinned at Liam before approaching Xavier. "Long time no see. I couldn't attend your wedding with Antheena last time. Is it too late to congratulate the newlyweds now?"

As she spoke to Xavier, she caught sight of Antheena approaching from behind, and her red lips curled into a faint smile.

Antheena didn't reject the sincere gaze and blessings from Veronica, nor did she think Veronica was being overly hypocritical.

Because Antheena knew very well that Veronica only had feelings for Matthew, and even if Xavier couldn't let go of Veronica, it was just his unrequited love.

Even so, it was very hard to get rid of the jealousy that had grown deeply ingrained in her heart.

Antheena walked to Xavier's side, linking her arm with his and looking affectionate. "Thank you."

They both avoided bringing up the assassination at Primrose Residence.

"Why are we all standing? Let's sit. We all know each other, so there's no need to be too polite," Liam said, attempting to hold Veronica's wrist and lead her to her seat.

However, no matter how fast he was, could he beat Matthew?

Matthew stepped forward and pulled Veronica aside in one swift motion. Liam, who was looking straight ahead, didn't notice Veronica had been pushed away, so he reached out and took hold of Matthew's hand.

Liam expected that by taking the initiative to hold who he thought was Veronica, she would definitely struggle and resist, but she didn't.

He was a little giddy inside, and he even used his fingertips to lightly touch "her" skin. He imagined her to have soft, delicate skin and wasn't ready for it to feel rough or even like a man's.

While Liam was perplexed, he noticed that the people in front of him were each giving him a different look while smiling slyly.

He was stunned and turned his head to look, only to find that he was holding onto a big man.

A man with moles on his face, ugly and dark—Iron Pillar!

"Prince Liam's interests are, indeed, different from those of ordinary people."

When Veronica heard this, she was so tightly suppressing her laughter that she almost suffered an internal injury.

Liam was the family's youngest child and, as one might expect, a young prince. Outside, Veronica could address him as "Young Master Liam," but inside the palace, she had to refer to him as "Prince Liam."

"Hahaha!"

Anthony's eyes lit up, unable to hold back his laughter, and looked at Liam intently.

"Go away!"

Embarrassed, Liam glared angrily at Matthew, wishing he could strangle Matthew. "Who allowed you to come in? Get out of here."

Matthew kept his head down and didn't speak, trying to minimize his presence.

The majority of those in attendance were familiar with him and were fully informed about him. He knew that if he spoke too much, he would be exposed.

"He works for me. We'll leave if Prince Liam doesn't welcome us."

Veronica obviously had to defend the man she loved when he was mistreated.

With that, she looked at Matthew, and stated, "Iron Pillar, since Prince Liam doesn't welcome us, let's go."

"Yes, Miss."

Matthew quietly complied, turned around, and prepared to leave with her.

"I meant to say, 'Go over there.' Aren't you going to let your bodyguard sit?" Liam's face grimaced, and he reluctantly explained.
