Her Billionaire Husband novel Chapter 445

Chapter 445 You Are Not My Type

“Y-You… Grandma, the date you said you want to introduce to me is… Veronica?”

Miguel was thunderstruck. He didn’t even have the courage to peek at Matthew’s face as he quickly shook his head. “No, no! Grandma, she is not my type!”

The clever answer made the corner of Matthew’s lips curl into a slight arc. Smart, he mused. Or I would’ve broken his leg. Although Matthew was satisfied with the answer, Veronica was upset.

“What type am I? We haven’t even hung out! How do you know if I am right for you or not?” she asked. As though this was a mere joke, she then continued to tease, “I think you are pretty good. You are gentle and polite, and you are much more powerful than a certain someone. Miguel, how about we spend some time getting to know each other? You might see that I am not all that bad.”

Veronica had no intention of letting Miguel go just like that, precisely because he was Matthew’s friend.

“Huh?” Miguel was stunned when Veronica didn’t go as he thought she would. He only came back to his senses after a while. “I really can’t.” He fervently shook his head. “I really don’t like you.”

“What type of girl do you like, then?” she asked. Hearing that, Miguel looked at Matthew with a helpless look, hoping that Matthew would say something for him.

Unexpectedly, Matthew only lowered his head. He picked up a glass of wine from the table and took a sip from it. As if immersed in the rich and mellow aroma of the fine wine, he was completely unaware of the secret message Miguel was sending his way.

Now that he had been ‘blocked’ by Matthew, Miguel had no choice but to laugh awkwardly. “I like gentle, virtuous, sweet, and cute women.”

“Oh. That is not hard to do.” She brought up a hand and ran it through her hair. “I can get a chin-length haircut and straighten it out tomorrow. With my appearance, even though I am definitely not considered a cute girl, I am not far from the sweet type. And as for being gentle and virtuous like you said, I may not be the type, but… it is alright. I can change!”

She seemed to have locked her target on Miguel today.

Even though Miguel was prepared to be tormented, he never expected Veronica to be so persistent.

Even Elizabeth was taken aback by Veronica’s words. Did she really leave Matthew because she had no feelings for him? Or did she fall in love with Miguel instead?

She herself wasn’t too sure for a moment there.

Matthew’s face had turned completely dark as he held his wine glass harder, his joints visibly turning white. It felt as though the glass in his hand would be crushed to pieces anytime now.

‘I may not be the type, but it is alright. I can change!’ What is she talking about?

She’s actually willing to do something like this for Miguel’s sake?

She has never said something like this when we were together!

As his jealousy welled up, only God knew how many times Matthew repeated a mantra—Endure. You must endure.

If it wasn’t for his excellent self-control, he wouldn’t be able to keep his emotions at bay. Instead, he would have directly carried her back to the room and given her ‘punishment’ so severe that she would reflect on her actions.

“Ah? Um… Uh…” Miguel hesitated, unable to utter a coherent sentence for a long time.

Elizabeth let out a frown then. “Miguel, does it bother you that Veronica was Matthew’s girlfriend?”

“No, no. Of course not.”

“Since that is not the case, why don’t you want to give me a chance? If you really can’t do it, I will be the one doing the pursuing instead,” Veronica deliberately said.

Although she suddenly felt bad about playing with Miguel, she had to do it to get on Matthew’s nerves.
