Her Billionaire Husband novel Chapter 412

Chapter 412 Matthew Found Out the Truth

At that time, the doctor assistant noticed a part of the tattoo on Veronica’s waist and exclaimed in shock. Tattoo?

Matthew was baffled, for he had never seen any tattoos on her before. However, who could the pale-faced woman on the operating table be other than Veronica?

He cocked his head and took a look. With just a single glance, he happened to see the revealed part of the ‘tattoo’ on her waist. Its color was that of blood; the revealed part was the phoenix’s head and a few feathers. It looked so real as though it was actually a living being.

“Holy cow, I didn’t know that Roni has such a gorgeous tattoo. Tsk tsk tsk…” Skyler nudged Matthew and joked, “What luck you have there, Matt.”

Noticing Matthew’s solemn yet anxious face, he realized something. “Don’t worry. The numbers are normal. She won’t die.”

Although the transfusion of blood was ongoing when they entered the surgery room, Matthew knew that she was not in a critical condition given the doctors’ reaction, thereby putting his worries to rest.

However, his heart was in his throat again. Others might not know of the tattoo because they were not the ones closest to her, but that was not the case for him.

He did not need to sleep with Veronica every day to know for a fact that she did not have any tattoos. Still, he could not deny its existence seeing how realistic it looked!

Matthew and her were only together two days ago. She would not be able to get a tattoo in such a short period of time. Rather, it seemed more like a… mark.

A mark? An image conjured in his head as he came across the mark in a codex previously.

Where was it again? Where did I see it? He was certain that it was not his first time seeing it.

A codex?

He suddenly remembered the day he went to the underground chamber with Veronica in which they entered a room and accidentally toppled over a bookshelf that was stacked up with codexes. He then simply picked up one of the books.

What’s the name again? It’s… Matthew’s brows knitted tightly as he attempted to recall the title of the codex. ‘Secret Affair of the Hidden Clan’! Yes, that’s it! It’s the ‘Secret Affair of the Hidden Clan’!

That mark was depicted clearly in that book. There was a jar in that same room, which made some weird noises after Veronica touched it and was subject to an agonizing illness.

After that trip, he returned to the chamber to locate that jar again, only to realize that the space was cleaned up by someone else with no trace left behind. It was as if nothing had happened before.

Even so, how could he possibly forget about it? That time, he asked the team to look into the underground chamber but to no avail as of today.

Veronica inquired about it numerous times and he said that the case had been taken over by someone else. In truth, that was not the case.

Speaking of the tattoo, the guilty doctor assistant was not fazed by it and merely spared a glance at it; her job was to execute what she was paid to do, so how would she know anything about it?

Meanwhile, Matthew did not respond to Skyler. The duo waited for a while until the surgery had ended.

Once Veronica was sent to a VIP room, Matthew’s mind was finally put at ease, but the mark on her kept bothering him.

Caleb and the others left in ones and twos upon knowing that she was safe. Now that only silence filled the room, Matthew stayed by her side next to the bed by clasping onto her hand as if she was going to leave him.
