Chapter 495 Yvonne’s Mutiny
Only through Yvonne’s phone call did Veronica know about this matter. “Roni, where are you? Are you alright?”
Yvonne sounded anxious on the phone, like she had discovered something shocking. “What’s wrong?” Veronica was spread out on her bed, applying a cold compress to her cheeks to reduce swelling.
“You’re asking me what’s wrong?! Didn’t you watch the news?!” Yvonne was furious. “Why didn’t you tell me about such a huge issue? You can always come and work in my company if you can’t find a job. So, why bother selling cars and suffering such indignity?”
After Yvonne watched the video, she felt terrible for Veronica. Deep down, she thought that it was really a waste for Veronica to be a car salesperson with her capabilities.
“I’m lying down and resting. I don’t have time to watch the news.”
Veronica reached out and touched her cheek. Although she could feel it was still swollen due to the stinging pain she felt when she applied pressure to her cheek, she grinned and replied lightheartedly. “It’s okay. I’m doing quite well. You don’t have to worry about me.”
“I—”
Just as Yvonne was about to say something, Conrad, who was hugging her, hinted at her. At once, Yvonne understood and said, “Of course, I’m worried about you, but I’m more worried about my son. Look: you had an excellent relationship with Matthew before, yet he’s now driving you to a dead end merely because you slapped Sasha. What about my son? Will Matthew really do anything to my son?”
Yvonne was genuinely concerned about Ian’s safety.
Matthew treated Veronica very kindly before because she had rescued Old Mrs. Kings and was his godsister.
But Matthew isn’t directly related to Ian, so he has no reason to help Ian at all.
What’s more: I’m worried that Matthew will use Ian to threaten Conrad one day.
Not only is Conrad the father of my child, but he also has a terminal illness now, so I must protect them.
Meanwhile, Veronica didn’t know how to answer after she listened to Yvonne’s words.
My break up with Matthew was simply a show, and because of that, I could understand Matthew’s problematic situation. But it’s different for Yvonne. She doesn’t know the truth, so how can she understand Matthew’s intention?
“Although that b*stard isn’t as kind as we thought, he won’t go as far as to murder a child. Think about it: how can you give birth to the child so smoothly if he wants to kill your son?”
Veronica enlightened Yvonne, hoping that she wouldn’t overthink the matter.
“You can say that, b-but… I’m still worried.” Yvonne sighed. “Prior to this, you and Matthew just called it off, and your relationship with him wasn’t this terrible. But, now that you two are on terrible terms with each other, I’m truly worried for my son’s safety.”
At the same time, Conrad lay beside Yvonne and hugged her. While he had an ear to the words Yvonne said to Veronica, he smiled and played with a strand of her hair in front of her chest, curling it around his finger.
It sure took me a lot of time and effort to put up a show so that I could gain Yvonne’s trust and find out where the child was.
