Chapter 120
Veronica‘s eyes lit up at Melissa‘s words. Her mood instantly took a turn for the better. “How could I? I keep my promises.”
It was so easy earning money like this. Veronica hadn‘t thought that Matthew could be used like a golden goose. She would have to hang onto him for this in the future!
Thirty minutes later, Veronica and Melissa arrived at the Spinfluence building. She prepared to call Matthew, but she was also worried that she would interrupt him on the off–chance that he was in a business meeting. So, she called Thomas instead. Thomas came downstairs shortly after that.
“Hello, Miss Murphy and Miss Crawford, what are you here for today?” Thomas had immediately come to see Veronica the moment he heard about her arrival. He was good at reading people, after all. As someone who had a good grasp on people‘s feelings, Thomas knew very well just how important Veronica was to his employer.
“Uh… I‘m here to look for Matthew,” Veronica said with a straight face as she glanced at Melissa meaningfully.
Thomas dipped his head before walking over to the reception and pointing at Veronica. “From today onward, you are not supposed to stop her from entering the premises,” he said to the receptionists.
The two receptionists eyed Veronica, jealousy clear in their eyes as they nodded. “All right. Understood, Mr. Ritter.”
Thomas proceeded to lead Veronica and Melissa upstairs.
This was Veronica‘s first time inside the Spinfluence Group. At the sight of the elegant and modern interior design and the throngs of smart business people walking its halls, she felt envious. If it wasn‘t for the Larsons, she could have been like the employees here, working hard in a similar environment.
Having reached the CEO‘s office, Thomas pointed at the door. “This is Young Master Matthew‘s office, Miss Murphy. Please head inside yourself; I still have some business to attend to.” He didn‘t want to third–wheel them, so he made up an excuse to slip away.
“Thank you, Mr. Ritter,” Veronica said. Then, she and Melissa walked over to the door, knocking on it before opening the door.
The moment they walked in, they were greeted by the sight of an opulent office with a muted color scheme. Matthew sat by a curved desk, leaning back in his large chair, while there, sitting on his lap was… Tiffany Larson!
Veronica stopped in her tracks to stare dumbly at the sight before her.
Matthew was, as usual, dressed in a suit. His hair was cut short. His features were chiseled and defined, comparable to the perfection of a model, especially with his chic and noble aura; the woman in his arms was clad in a strapless dress. Her long hair cascaded down to her waist, and her light makeup was beautifully done. Her collarbones were visible without being stark, adding to her loveliness. Both man and woman were beautiful creatures, works of art. And here they were, cuddling closely with each other.
Those two were engaged, so it was perfectly normal that this would happen. And yet Veronica felt suffocated, like she was a beat behind everyone. .
“So that b*tch is here too.” Melissa couldn‘t stop herself from pursing her lips upon seeing Tiffany, envious of her position. Upon closer look, although Veronica and
Tiffany looked very much similar, Melissa still thought that Veronica‘s beauty surpassed Tiffany‘s, even when Veronica had no makeup on.
Both women stepped inside. Melissa took an even closer look at Tiffany then. Upon comparing them, she realized that Veronica‘s eyes were larger and more lively. Her eyebrows especially were more beautiful than Tiffany‘s, and her nose was more defined and straighter than Tiffany‘s. Veronica had a small mole on her nose too; despite her lack of makeup, the mole added a dignified air to her.
Her beauty perfectly eclipsed Tiffany‘s. The title of the most beautiful woman in Bloomstead might just change hands.
Although Tiffany knew that Matthew and Veronica had been in Almeida at the same time, Tiffany hadn‘t gone to Almeida, owing to a certain reason. Regardless, she had achieved her goals to some extent.
