Her Billionaire Husband novel Chapter 448

Chapter 448 Matthew and Zac Cooperate

Matthew had pondered over it before he decided he needed to be cruel and firm in making Veronica leave the car. Even if she were to get angry about it, he couldn’t do anything. He suddenly thought about someone, so he took his phone and gave the person he had in mind a call.

The person picked up after the phone rang a few times. “President Kings? W-Why are you calling me? Is there something I can help you with?”

The voice that came from the other end of the phone was Shirley’s. Matthew went to Encounters to look for Veronica when the store’s business was booming before, but he only saw Shirley there. He had asked for her contact information then.

He privately wanted to find a way to form a good relationship with Shirley so that he could completely buy her off. However, Shirley, being the little lady with a sense of justice that she was, said righteously, “President Kings, I know you are rich and powerful. But no matter what, I will never betray Veronica. I can do anything if it is for her good, but if it harms her, the first and only thing I will do is call the police.”

Matthew thought Veronica was a lucky person to have a friend as brave as Shirley upon hearing that. “Pick up Roni along the road to the Kings Residence, will you?”

“Huh? Pick her up? B-But she didn’t call me. What should I tell her if she asks me why I am there?”

This is a sticky situation. He thought for a while, and finally made up a reason. “Just say that I was the one who called you.”

“But you have already broken up. Veronica will definitely have doubts if I said that it was you who called.”

Matthew and Veronica had not had any contact after the split, but the man had inquired many times about her from Shirley.

However, Shirley didn’t know the reason why they broke up. All she knew was that Matthew was protecting Veronica in secret.

“She won’t. Just do as I say.”

He swiftly hung up the phone after tossing that out.

Shirley, on the other hand, was pouting as she doubted Matthew’s words.

After hesitating over it, she still changed her clothes before she set off to her destination in a sedan.

The car came at an affordable total of 100 thousand. Not only that, it was given to her by Matthew.

Shirley had refused it before, but eventually forced herself to accept the vehicle after he said that it would be more convenient to have a car.

After driving out of the city in the direction of the Kings Residence, she finally spotted Veronica after another 30 minutes of driving.

She pressed the car horn a few times before she turned the car in Veronica’s direction. “Hop on in, Veronica,” she offered after the car came to a stop beside Veronica.

Hearing this, Veronica leaned over slightly, thereafter tilting her head and looking at Shirley who sat in the car. “What are you doing here, Shirley?”

“It is President Kings. He called me and asked me to come pick you up,” Shirley truthfully replied as Matthew told her.

Her heart started to thump out of worry after she said that. Will she suspect anything? Shirley wondered.

Surprisingly, Veronica opened the car door and sat up before she slammed it shut. She then muttered with her head lowered, “Hmph! That b*stard is only asking you to give me a ride because he doesn’t want me to complain about him to Grandma.”

Shirley immediately let out a relieved sigh after hearing that. What a strategist President Kings is. He guessed it right.

“I don’t know about that. I was just thinking that you will be tired if you were to walk all the way to the city.” Shirley chuckled as she drove off to the city.
