Her Billionaire Husband novel Chapter 165

Chapter 165

“No matter. Speak your mind.” Xavier had never thought of Melissa as a stranger.

“Understood. I‘ve already investigated the incident you asked me to. Tiffany was indeed the one behind last night‘s car accident,” said the man in the suit.

Melissa stiffened. “What car accident?”

“What else could it be? Of course it was an accident meant to involve Roni.” Xavier‘s expression chilled. “Is Tiffany taunting her because Roni doesn‘t have anyone to back her up? Go teach Tiffany a lesson.”

“Yes, Mr. Crawford.” The man in the suit dipped his head before leaving.

The gears in Melissa‘s head whirred quickly. She eyed the man thoughtfully before turning to face Xavier and smile. “You can continue working. Something just came up, so I need to leave.”

“Go ahead. I still have work to do anyway.” Xavier waved at her and pointed at the present on his desk. “Thanks for this.”

“Oh come on, Xavier, why the politeness?” Melissa giggled before leaving the office with rushed steps.

When Melissa reached the elevator, she saw the man who had just left. She raised an eyebrow. “By the way, my brother told me to tell you this: he said that the baby Tiffany‘s pregnant with is an eyesore. You got that?”

The man stiffened for a moment. He understood what Tiffany meant. “All right, understood. Please inform Mr. Crawford on my behalf that it will be done.”

Melissa pressed her lips into a smile, and she nodded. “My brother‘s counting on

you.”

That baby was indeed an obstacle. If Tiffany wasn‘t pregnant, Matthew might not marry her anymore. Melissa would then actually have a chance if she wanted to pursue him.

Melissa naively assumed that if she got revenge on Tiffany, Veronica would be happy when she saw Tiffany‘s downfall. Who wouldn‘t be delighted to see someone get major payback for a huge grudge?

Meanwhile, Veronica woke up after sleeping the entire night at the inn. Alier brustung her teeth and getting herself ready, she packed her things and prepared to head to the train station. When she was checking out in the lobby, her phone rang. Slie pulled out her phone to see that it was a call from Xavier,

Veronica‘s brows furrowed. After a moment of hesitation, she answered the call. “You‘re not thinking of sending me to the train station, are you? Since you‘re calling me at this hour,” she teased. Veronica initially wanted to quietly leave Bloomstead without anyone sending her off. Unfortunately for her, she had forgotten to keep the exact time a secret when she told Xavier when the train would arrive.

“I‘m outside your home. Come on out. I can send you to the station,” Xavier said over the phone.

Veronica was moved when she heard his gentle voice. Deep down, she knew about his kindness.

“Oh, right, I forgot to tell you that my train ride got rescheduled. I went to my friend‘s place at the last minute for an errand; I‘ll only be leaving tomorrow.”

Veronica typically disliked partings with others. She always felt that they were sad, so she didn‘t want Xavier to send her to the train station.

Knock, knock, knock. The man at the head of the pack walked over to the side of the car and began to tap away at the car window. Not only did Tiffany keep the window rolled up, but she also immediately locked the car. An inexplicable sense of danger washed over her, making her heart skip a beat in fear.
