Her Billionaire Husband novel Chapter 460

Chapter 460 Not an Ordinary Woman

In Castron, Mia lost a bet with Veronica worth hundreds of thousands, and the former suffered a lot. After returning to the company, she secretly said terrible things about Veronica.

Mia had also embellished the story where Veronica hooked up with Larry. Then, Ruka saw the picture from Veronica’s Instagram Stories.

“He’s an old friend,” Veronica replied, then asked, “I believe you and Mr. Ludwig have something to talk about, so I will leave you two alone and come back later.” “Don’t. I have nothing to talk about with him.”

Ruka waved her hand to Veronica and patted the couch. “Sit down for a while. Let’s talk; it’s been too long since we saw each other.” Truth was, it was only about a month since they last met.

Veronica cast Sean a pleading gaze, hoping to seek his help. However, Sean said, “She is here for you.” He pushed his spectacles up the bridge of his nose and stood up with some documents in his hand. “You may chat. I’ll do something and be right back.”

After he finished speaking, he left the office. With the boss away, Veronica lost her restraint and asked Ruka, “Why were you looking for me?”

They had each other’s contact information, so they could talk over the phone. However, Ruka wanted to meet Veronica in person, which meant Ruka might have something important to say to Veronica.

Ruka wore a deep V-neckline sleeveless red corset dress. Coupled with her long hair and red lips, she exuded an icy sensuality. Veronica had to admit that Ruka was beautiful and she had natural charm. Indeed, Ruka was a stunner.

The woman raised her hand and turned around to face Veronica. Raising her beautiful eyebrows, Ruka murmured, “Well…” She thought for a few seconds, then asked, “Do you know where Hendrey is now?”

“Hendrey? As in Hendrey Johnson?”

When Hendrey returned, he worked in a branch of the Dame Group, so naturally he talked with Ruka and often had meals together.

“That’s right. Didn’t he go abroad? I was able to contact him when he first went abroad. However, it now seems that he has disappeared into thin air. Aren’t you friends? I think you know where he is.”

“I don’t know. I haven’t been in touch with him for a while.” Veronica shook her head, and curiosity surged into her heart. “He’s been abroad for so long, so why are you looking for him? Wait, oh…” Then, she realized something. “Are you… I mean… do you like him?”

She asked dazzlingly with a wicked smile on her face. “Hey, what are you talking about?! I just want to chat with him.”

A blush appeared on Ruka’s cheeks, which was very unlike her. This rendered Ruka’s explanation powerless.

“I really don’t know.” Veronica put away her smile, took out her cell phone, and searched for Hendrey’s phone number. “This is the only contact information I have access to. Don’t you have the number too?”

“Try to call him,” Ruka urged. “I… Okay.” Veronica couldn’t refuse. After all, she could work in Starshine because of Ruka, so she couldn’t afford to offend the woman.

Veronica dialed Hendrey’s number, but a mechanical female voice came out from the phone, “The person you called is unavailable.”

After hanging up the phone, Veronica called again, but Hendrey’s phone was still turned off. She shrugged at that. “I don’t know what happened.”

“Argh!” When Veronica couldn’t contact Hendrey, Ruka sighed. “It’s so annoying. It’s worrying that he’s not replying.”

Ruka was worried about Hendrey. However, not only did Veronica not worry about him , she even suspected something was amiss with the man.

“Just be patient. Maybe you will be able to contact him soon.” Veronica tried to calm Ruka. Ruka’s delicate face was full of disappointment. Finally, she said, “There’s nothing else I can do, though.”

Without getting any news from Hendrey, she left after sitting for a while. Then, Veronica waited for Sean to return to the office and told him about the filming in Rocky Bay that day.

He was relieved to learn that Veronica’s first filming went smoothly and received unanimous praise from Johansson and Stephen.

“Continue with your great work. If you become popular and someone contacts you to film another show, I can also profit as I’m your agency.”
