Her Billionaire Husband novel Chapter 443

Chapter 443 Introduce Veronica a Partner

While sitting on another couch himself, Matthew had his legs crossed as his intertwined fingers were placed on his abdomen. “Indeed, it is none of my business. I am just curious who would fancy a fierce woman like you.”

He couldn’t help feeling somewhat guilty at those words he uttered. He had spoken without thinking it through and by the time he did, he started to panic. Will we still have the chance to be together after I tell her the truth a year later if I were to piss her off?

“You are the one who is blind!” At that point, the duo had begun to diss each other. “Stay out of my business, Matthew Kings.” “I would love to, but what choice do I have when I am your godbrother? I will be gatekeeping when you find your next man.”

That’s a pretty good reason, right? He quietly praised himself for being clever after he said that. This was perhaps the only excuse he had to be able to justifiably get rid of the men around her. “You…” Veronica stuttered, at a loss for words.

Just as the two of them stared at each other with a confrontational look on their faces, her eyes suddenly had a glint as a plan came to her. “Alright, then. Since you are my brother, I will need your help with that when I look for someone in the future.”

“Don’t sweat it.” Despite his short reply, he was cheering on the inside. “Hmph!”

She only huffed without saying anything, and silence soon befell the lounge again. It took some time for the physical examination to be completed. After Elizabeth was done with it, she also came to the lounge to sit and rest.

Seeing Veronica playing on her phone, Elizabeth asked, “Veronica, have you been looking for a new partner after you broke up with Matthew?”

She had noticed how quiet and rigid Veronica and Matthew were as soon as she walked in. Seeing how they weren’t willing to talk to each other, she had no choice but to use a trick like this to ease the atmosphere.

“Uh… What? A partner?” Veronica was stunned by how unexpectedly gossipy Elizabeth was. With a bashful smile on her face, she quickly told the older woman an excuse she thought of. “Haha! Grandma, Matthew and I have only broken up a little more than three months ago, so I am still on the lookout for someone. I will definitely bring him over to introduce you when I have decided on one.”

Because if she didn’t, she was scared that Elizabeth would do the same thing she did before by shoving a bunch of photos of candidates at Veronica and making her choose one.

And just as she expected…

“Oh, I know what a dull man Matthew is. He doesn’t even like to talk. Women don’t like men like him,” Elizabeth added while she tugged on Veronica’s hand with a gentle smile on her face. “But I do have someone decent that I want to introduce to you.”

“Grandma, you don’t have to—”

Veronica had turned to Elizabeth and was about to reject her when she, from the angle she was looking from, noticed the change in Matthew’s expression as he sat there.

And so, she quickly agreed instead. “Alright. I am still young anyway. It is not a bad thing to get to know more people.”

“Haha!That is wonderful. I can always trust you to be the open-minded one.” While speaking, Elizabeth took her phone out and flipped through her contacts before she dialed one of the numbers.

After she put the call on loudspeaker, the phone made a few beeping sounds before the person accepted the call.

“Grandma Elizabeth?” The gentle and somewhat familiar voice of a man rang out instantly.

“Hello? Miguel, dear, what has been keeping you busy recently?” Elizabeth asked.

Veronica’s face immediately froze in shock.

She was curious about who Elizabeth had in mind to introduce her to, but she never would have thought that it would be Miguel, who happened to be Matthew’s best friend!

As the few of them had a great relationship and Miguel was a year older than Matthew, he naturally was the ‘big brother’ of the group.

However, Veronica could tell that even though Miguel was one year older than Matthew, he was far inferior in temperament and power when compared to Matthew.

Still…

As Veronica gave it a thought, her clear eyes glinted and a smile gradually appeared on her red lips.

“Nothing much. I am not busy at all,” Miguel replied before asking again, “Is there something you need me for, Grandma Elizabeth?”
