Her Billionaire Husband novel Chapter 789

Chapter 789 She Has No Choice

“I don’t know what she is up to, but she’s sly. You’d better be careful and watch out.” Matthew didn’t want to go into detail about what happened in the royal palace, lest she should worry. “I’ll send you back, so you can get some rest.”

“Okay.” The exhausted Veronica nodded and leaned against the car seat as she fell silent. The spiked wine drained her of her strength and was tortuous to her as well. Although she had taken the antidote, her body had consumed the drug, so she felt fatigued.

As soon as they returned to their current home and walked into the courtyard, a person suddenly scurried towards them.

“Roni, what’s going on? What took you so long? What did you do?” Mateo was worried sick as he had waited for them all night. Then, he pointed to the living room and whispered, “Grandpa is worried about you guys too, and he has been waiting for you.”

It was already 11.30PM, according to the Hidden Clan’s time, which was very late.

“Nothing happened. I just had a lot of fun, so I forgot the time,” Veronica blurted an excuse off the top of her head. Frankly, she didn’t want to talk about tonight’s events.

“Oh…” Mateo’s youthful face was tinged with a sense of disappointment when he heard this. Regardless, he quickly turned his head and glared at Matthew. “Iron Pillar, return my money!”

“Money?” Matthew feigned ignorance. “What money?”

“You promised to let me go today, but I couldn’t make it. So, the agreement is null and void, so you have to give me back my money!” Actually, it had nothing to do with money. Mateo just refused to allow Iron Pillar to have the longer end of the stick. After all, he was genuinely upset that he couldn’t join today’s festivities.

“I tried my best, but Miss insisted that I go. If you want your money back, you should get it from her.”
