Her Billionaire Husband novel Chapter 192

Chapter 192 Please Save Me

When she asked the question, Matthew’s beautiful face became colder. “You should ask him.”

He pointed at Xavier with his cigarette between his fingers, endless contempt in his eyes.

Veronica’s mind was blank, and she was unable to determine the truth of the situation in such a short period of time.

Gripping Xavier’s shoulders with both hands, she peered at his bruised face, which was no longer as handsome as it used to be. “Did what happened today have anything to do with you?”

Based on her understanding of Matthew, Veronica knew that he wasn’t someone who would make arbitrary decisions.

Without the ability to analyze and make judgements, it would be impossible for him to get to his current position, with no one being able to overturn him.

On the other hand, Xavier did whatever he wanted and was prone to lying.

So, who’s lying? Or did something go wrong somewhere?

She couldn’t figure it out.

Xavier’s eyes were swollen from the beating, but it didn’t affect his expression as he studied Veronica up close.

From the confused look in her eyes, he could almost see disappointment.

He poked his cheek with the tip of his tongue, then he licked the corners of his mouth in a bloodthirsty manner before snorting softly. “No.”

In the end, Xavier chose to lie.

“If it has nothing to do with you, is it related to her?” Matthew asked solemnly.

Everyone’s gaze fell on Melissa, causing her to turn pale with fright as she shook her head. “No, no. It has nothing to do with me. Absolutely nothing. Sob, sob… I-It has nothing to do with me…”

Veronica glanced at Melissa, who was crying miserably, then turned to Xavier again. “Is what Matthew said true?”

She stared unblinkingly at Xavier, as if trying to penetrate his mind through his eyes.

Feeling guilty, Xavier couldn’t stand her burning gaze, so he lowered his head slightly, then turned and glanced at Melissa, who shook her head with a pleading look.

Although Melissa didn’t speak, Xavier knew that it was Melissa’s strong desire to survive.

That was his younger sister, his only relative.

“Xavier, why aren’t you talking?”

Regardless of how dim she was, Veronica could sense a trace of weirdness in Xavier’s reaction.

“Cough… It hurts…”

Xavier lifted his hand to cover his chest, then drew a painful breath before firmly shaking his head. “It has nothing to do with Melissa.”

Initially, Veronica was skeptical of Melissa, but Xavier’s statement greatly reassured her.

It was all good if she had nothing to do with it.

That meant that everything was just a misunderstanding.

She knew that Xavier wasn’t that despicable.

“Matthew, could this be a misunderstanding?”

Veronica let go of Xavier and walked toward Matthew, hoping that he could spare Xavier and his sister and re-investigate the matter.

She took step after step toward the man, who was staring at Veronica the whole time. It wasn’t until she approached him that he gave Thomas, who was standing next to him, a look.

Bang, bang—

“Ah!”
