Her Billionaire Husband novel Chapter 419

Chapter 419 There Is No Future for the Both of You

Having flipped through the ‘Secret Affair of the Hidden Clan’ and analyzed Veronica’s situation, Matthew concluded that there was more to her than they thought. If he assumed correctly, she could very well be the leader of the hidden clan.

Veronica and Tiffany were twin sisters. If the former was the leader of the hidden clan, then Tiffany would naturally be one as well. Matthew had taken Randy’s sample before to run a DNA test, only to find that he was not Floch and Rachel’s biological son, but his DNA structure was similar to Veronica and Tiffany’s.

This could only mean that all three of these siblings were not biologically related to Floch and Rachel at all, but that they were descendants of the hidden clan

If Floch and Rachel somehow managed to get their hands on and raised two of the three descendants, then it prompted the question of their true identities.

In fact, what was Master Crayson’s true identity? Did Tony and Daniella know the truth of Veronica’s background?

Countless questions flooded Matthew’s mind and he investigated further into the history of the hidden clan, only to dig up baseless legends and nonsensical rumors. This led him to think that perhaps the hidden clan was nothing more than an extinct tribe, but he refused to give up on uncovering the truth.

After a long while, he finally came to terms with Veronica’s identity. When he chose to be with her, he had already made up his mind to protect her for the rest of her life.

Presently, he and Veronica made their way back to Twilight Condominium.

They went into their apartment and Veronica immediately plopped down on the couch. She sighed wearily as she said, “My parents were totally fine with our plans to marry until Master Crayson decided to butt in and dissuade them. That old geezer’s ruining things for me.” She reached out to grab a throw pillow and lay down flat on it in frustration. “I just don’t understand why he doesn’t like you. You’re the ideal husband material if you ask me!”

She did not think it was easy for her to finally meet someone she would like to spend the rest of her life with; the only reason why she wanted to secretly marry him was because of his status. She did not want to be in the center of public attention, and announcing their marriage to the rest of the world would mean sacrificing what little modicum of privacy they had.

She did not think that in successfully evading the public’s white-hot microscope, she would have to put up with Master Crayson’s unreasonable protest against her marriage to Matthew. Now, the old man was on his way to Bloomstead.

Matthew’s heart went out to her and he poured her a glass of warm water. Handing it to her, he said, “Drink.”

She did as she was told and he gently pulled her into his arms while his hand cupped the back of her neck tenderly. “Your master has watched you grow up and you’re just like a daughter to him. It’s only natural that he wants to have a say in who you get to marry. He’s concerned for your happiness like a father should be.”

After drinking the water, Veronica set the glass down on the coffee table. More accurately, she slammed it down on the coffee table, just hard enough to show how exasperated and belligerent she was. “I know that, but it doesn’t mean he gets to stop me from living my life the way I want to. Don’t I get a say in my own happiness, too? How can you expect me to just be cool about this?”

“Okay, you’re getting worked up,” Matthew said as he caressed her hair soothingly. Then, he murmured, “Good things come to those who wait.”

At once, Veronica fell silent. She thought about how Matthew had been a great help around the house during New Year’s previously. He had respected her family and did all the dishes, as well as went out in the snow just to chop up firewood for the stove. Maybe Master Crayson and my parents will change their minds about Matthew after they’ve come over and talked to him, she thought. Maybe good things really do come to those who wait.

Hence, she waited alongside Matthew for a few grueling hours. At long last, Master Crayson and Veronica’s parents arrived at the Bloomstead train station.

She and Matthew drove to pick them up after which they headed toward One Piece Restaurant so they could have dinner in the private dining room.
