Her Billionaire Husband novel Chapter 483

Chapter 483 Be a Car Sales Consultant

Elizabeth felt that Matthew had changed a lot recently, and when he returned to the Kings’ Residence, she did try to talk to him about this matter. Despite that, he was like a changed man and was being so difficult that Elizabeth was very disappointed in him.

She reckoned that he was probably hiding something or had to do this out of necessity. In addition, she was old and didn’t want to interfere with the affairs of the younger generation, so she no longer insisted on ordering him to maintain a friendly relationship with Veronica.

Miguel frowned and sighed as he didn’t expect that Elizabeth would say something like this. “I got it, Ma’am.”

After he hung up, he tossed the cell phone on the desk in frustration and spun around to sit in the executive chair. Finally, he raised his head, faced Matthew directly, and said, “Since Veronica can’t find a job recently, why doesn’t she work for me?”

As he knew that there must be a hidden reason why Matthew was doing this, hence he decided to help her out.

Matthew took a deep drag from the cigarette between his fingers, then exhaled the smoke at Miguel’s face. “What, my big brother? Don’t you understand what I said?”

Although Miguel was the eldest amongst them, Matthew would very rarely address him as ‘big brother. So, when he did so today, it sounded somewhat sarcastic, as though he was ridiculing Miguel.

“Of course, I understood what you said, but I can’t disobey Old Mrs. Kings’ orders.” He shrugged helplessly and replied, “She’s always kind to me, and I’ve owed her many favors. Now that she wants me to return the favor by helping Veronica, I really can’t bring myself to say no to her.”

This was a reason he made up by himself because he knew that Matthew wouldn’t speak what was on his mind now. As his friend, he had to think of a way to keep Veronica to prevent her from ending up on the streets.

When Matthew heard Miguel’s suggestion, his face turned frigid. “So, you mean that you’re abandoning me as your brother?” he questioned.

In a corner, Veronica, who was eating while listening to their conversation, murmured in her heart, Is Grandma really the reason Miggy is willing to help me out?

Suddenly, she felt a shard of warmth in this cold world and was incredibly touched.

“There’s nothing I can do if that’s how you want to view things.” Miguel narrowed his eyes and continued, “Matthew, you’re too ruthless. I heard that you’re the one who forced Veronica to apologize because of a conflict between her and Sasha, and after she refused, you wanted to push her into desperation. In this matter, you’re the one who has gone overboard.”

Matthew was silent, and he loosened his tie in frustration. “This is your choice. I hope you won’t regret it later.” After he spat out a threat, he whirled toward the door and stormed out of Miguel’s office.

When he left, he didn’t even look at Veronica. Every action he took was executed elegantly, and he didn’t show any hesitation as he left in a fury, and his relentless attitude sent a chill over Veronica’s heart.

Bang!

The office door came close with a loud bang, and she placed her cutlery away. Then, she climbed up to the couch, slumped into it, and sighed deeply.

In the meantime, Miguel didn’t say anything and merely observed her quietly as she turned her head to stare out the window. The initially delicious lunch felt like ashes in her mouth, and she had no appetite left.

After a while, she picked up her fork again and continued shoveling food into her mouth, not forgetting to thank Miguel. “Thanks, Miggy.”

She would remember this for life regardless of why he decided to help her. Initially, she thought he would turn her down, but who knew that he was willing to go against Matthew for her sake?

She had never expected such a turn of events and didn’t know what to say besides thanking him sincerely.

“Don’t thank me. I’m only doing this because I promised Old Mrs. Kings.” Miguel snorted and put up an aloof attitude as he lowered his head and continued to read the agreement. Afterward, he added, “But you don’t have any experience in my company, and I won’t pay you for doing nothing just because I made a promise to Old Mrs. Kings. I run a business, not a charity.”

Veronica understood the meaning behind his words and immediately reassured him, “Don’t worry, Mr. Lynch. Just give me a job, and I’m sure I can do it well.”
