Her Billionaire Husband novel Chapter 455

Chapter 455 It’s a Wrap!

“This? It was given to me by a friend.” When Veronica noticed the odd expression on Stephen’s face, she quickly followed up, “Does this bangle have an interesting backstory or something?” “I have seen it before. It—”

Stephen seemed like he was about to say something, but when he raised his gaze from the bangle to meet Veronica’s expectant eyes, he immediately looked away while he shook his head. “It looks familiar, but I can’t remember where I saw it.”

After his eyes darted away, he tilted his head to look out the window. His change of expression in that split second was all she needed to confirm that the bangle had a story behind it. Her suspicion of Hendrey only deepened with that.

Deciding she didn’t want to ask any more questions, she changed the subject. “Crazy, I will go to the crew earlier tomorrow. Remind me of things to watch out for before the shoot, okay?”

“Don’t be so nervous. Just relax,” Larry replied, not knowing that she only mentioned that to change the topic. The car finally arrived at the entrance of the hospital not long after. As she got out of the car, Larry also followed suit while asking, “How long will you be here for? I will wait for you if you will be quick.”

“There’s no need. See you!” Veronica waved and walked in front of Larry before she pointed at his cheek. “Get in the car quickly. For your information, you are not wearing a mask, yet you’re out and about. Aren’t you afraid you will see scandals about you tomorrow?”

“Alright. I am off, then. Call me if something happens.”

Larry then turned around to get back into his car. Stephen was still in the car when he rolled down the window and waved at Veronica. “Bye!”

She hummed with a smile. “See you tomorrow.” Larry then started the car and slowly drove off. After they left, Veronica, with her high heels on, turned around and walked into the hospital.

As soon as she arrived at the entrance to Yvonne’s ward, the first person she saw was Crayson sitting on the bench in the corridor. He was still in his security uniform as he slept leaning against the bench.

She immediately felt her nose burn as her heart seemed to ache. Because she had too much to handle, she had told him early this morning to keep an eye on Yvonne in case something were to happen to Yvonne.

However, she didn’t think he would be here all day. “Crayson?” Veronica stepped forward and gently patted him on the shoulder. “Were you keeping watch here the entire day? Have you eaten?”

Although he was always hale and hearty, it was an undeniable fact that he was an aged man. She couldn’t help feeling guilty and remorseful for making a man his age go out of his way to do so much for her.

He eventually opened his eyes but when he saw her, his gaze turned into a glare as a frown appeared on his face. “Little brat, it’s a good thing you still remember to come. Your master might die of hunger if you were another second late.”

Upon hearing that, Veronica knew for sure that he hadn’t had his meal. “You haven’t eaten?” She thought for a second before smilingly offered, “Let’s have something together, then. I haven’t eaten as well.”

In fact, she wasn’t hungry at all. She only wanted to keep him company while he ate. “Aye.” He yawned, putting on a reluctant expression. “Can you stay here a little longer? I am going in to check on Yvonne.”

After she informed him, she headed straight into the ward, where Yvonne had her child in her arms as she played with the boy. “Oh! There you are, Roni!”

Yvonne’s face immediately erupted in joy when she saw Veronica, and she hurriedly walked to Veronica while carrying the baby. “Look! He is smacking his lips in his sleep. Isn’t it adorable?!”

Seeing her motherly love overflow, Veronica finally felt a little more relieved about her friend. She then put down her bag and reached out to carry the boy. “Come. Let me hug him.”

“Here you go, but be careful.” Yvonne carefully passed the baby to Veronica, and the latter began to rock him gently. “Even though he is still a newborn, his facial features look quite similar to yours,” she commented.

“He is my son. Of course he looks like me.” Yvonne stood with her hands akimbo before she turned around and walked toward the bed. She let out a sigh as she plopped down on it. “I am lucky I have a maternity matron here to accompany me. I would probably be worn out otherwise. It just doesn’t make sense for anyone to raise children. It is too tiring.”

As Yvonne complained, she dropped her whole body on the bed.

“Thank you, Roni. Mr. Crayson has been keeping watch by the door the whole day. I only told him to go home at night.”

Yvonne had repeatedly told Crayson to go home when night fell, but he had rejected every time. Left with no choice, she made sure to watch him go into the elevator before she went back into her ward.
