Chapter 342 The Despicable and Shameless Xavier
Yvonne was being toyed around in the palm of Conrad’s hand, but she didn’t even know it. When should Veronica tell her?
“Yvonne, let’s eat lunch together.” Veronica decided to tell Yvonne the truth, hoping that she would believe her. If she didn’t, there was no helping it either.
“Sure, I have something to tell you too. Let’s go to Phil’s Restaurant. I’ll book a private room there.”
“All right.”
After hanging up, Veronica contacted the private investigator again to ask for information on Xavier. She knew very well that Matthew started retaliating against him because he was despicable and shameless, so she had no reason to stop him, and she didn’t want to either. In fact, after knowing that Matthew had made his move, she felt a trace of pleasure and emotion in her heart as though she was being cared for.
That noon, at Phil’s Restaurant, Veronica waited in the private room they had reserved before Yvonne quickly arrived. However, there were two others following behind her—Xavier and Conrad!
Upon seeing their arrival, she frowned subconsciously before she relaxed and greeted them with a hypocritical smile on her face. “You’re here? Yvonne, why did you bring them over without saying anything? I only ordered enough for the two of us.”
This woman… Is she an idiot?
“Roni, are you saying that I’m not welcome?” Xavier stood by the door with one hand behind his back and an evil smile on his lips.
“Of course not. I just wanted to order the food with all of you together,” Veronica replied.
Yvonne smiled mysteriously and pulled Conrad to stand by the side. Then, Xavier walked inside and headed straight for Veronica before he suddenly ‘conjured’ a bouquet of flowers from behind his back. Getting down on one knee as he held a ring box in one hand, he asked, “Roni, will you be my girlfriend?”
Speechless, Veronica couldn’t help but jolt in surprise as her smile slipped off her face. She lifted her head and looked at Yvonne and Conrad by the side. The two of them looked at each other and smiled, then shifted their gazes back to Veronica.
Yvonne smiled cheekily and said, “Veronica, you have to agree.”
“Veronica, Xavier is a fine man.” Saying that, Conrad grabbed Yvonne’s hand. “Let’s go first and give them some space.”
“But I want to watch.”
“Watch what? Be obedient.” Conrad tugged on Yvonne’s hand and dragged her out.
Yvonne stumbled out with him, not forgetting to make an encouraging gesture to Veronica with a cheerful smile, as though she wished that Veronica could quickly agree to be with Xavier. Soon, the door closed.
Just then, Xavier spoke again. “Roni, I’ve liked you ever since I met you, and my feelings for you have never changed. Can you agree to be my woman? I’ll definitely protect you and treat you well.”
