Her Billionaire Husband novel Chapter 89

Chapter 89

“Grandma, I know that the prawns are delicious, but you should have some vegetables to have a balance of nutrition. It‘ll be better for your health” Tiffany rose to grab some vegetables for Elizabeth‘s plate and took some for Veronica as well. “Veronica, you should eat some too.”

Tiffany had never thought that she would one day have to please Veronica too. Even though she was forced to do so since Matthew and Elizabeth were present, she still felt that her actions were demeaning.

“I‘m sorry, but I prefer to eat meat since I don‘t like vegetables.” While wearing her gloves, Veronica took the vegetables on her plate and thought about it before dumping them into Matthew‘s bowl. “It would be a shame if I were to throw away your fiancee‘s vegetables. You should have it.”

She was deliberately annoying Matthew.

However, the man glanced at her with his cold eyes as his handsome face darkened a little. He then lowered his eyes to have a look at the vegetables in his bowl without saying a word.

As for Tiffany, she continued to stab the rice in her bowl while feeling that Veronica was being ungrateful, but since it wasn‘t wise for her to be exasperated in front of Elizabeth, she smiled in response. “Meat is quite tasty too.”

During the dinner, Veronica and Elizabeth chatted happily whereas Matthew and

Tiffany were seated across from them and remained quiet, as if there was an invisible line between them.

The vegetables in his bowl were still left untouched even after the dinner had ended.

After the meal, Tiffany stood up to retrieve the utensils. “Grandma, since I don‘t know how to cook, why don‘t I help to wash the dishes?”

She had never washed the dishes when she was previously at the Larson Residence.

However, to please Elizabeth, she had to do her best–even if it meant dirtying her delicate hands.

Listening to her, Elizabeth nodded. “Okay, that‘s alright.”

Therefore, Tiffany and the servants gathered all the dishes together before heading

to the kitchen to wash the utensils.

In the meantime, Veronica felt that Tiffany had really gone out of her way this time. but didn‘t bother to pay much attention to her.

“Grandma, are you full? Why don‘t we have a walk in the yard?”

“Yes, I have the same idea too.” Elizabeth stood up and winked at Matthew, telling him to come. Even though he felt a little resigned, he rose to his feet and followed them.

While they walked in the yard, Veronica held Elizabeth‘s hand and pointed to the west where the sunset was. “The evening sun is so beautiful. Grandma, look at that.”

Elizabeth stopped moving and stood to watch the sunset as she couldn‘t help but feel emotional. “You‘re right. The sunset is gorgeous.”

Suddenly, she remembered her time with Tony, who loved to take her to watch the sunrise and sunset in which all were happy memories.

Sadly, after he passed away, she was left to support everything on her own, so she lost the mood to enjoy both the sunset and sunrise.

As Elizabeth fell into a deep thought, Veronica noticed the older woman‘s expression and furrowed her brows in confusion. After glancing at Matthew, she said, “Grandma, if you like to watch the sunset, I can bring you to the Woodland Mountain or a beach in the future. We can enjoy the view together. What do you think?”

“That‘s great. Sigh...” Elizabeth nodded while breathing a long sigh of regret. While walking forward with Veronica, she emotionally uttered, “When my husband was still with me, he always loved to watch the sunset and sunrise with me. Now that he‘s gone for more than a decade, I‘ve no longer been to those places again.”

“It‘s alright, Grandma. I‘ll keep you company from now on,” Veronica cajoled with a sweet smile while she patted her chest.

“Haha, alright. I‘ll wait for you then.”

She vigorously nodded her head. “No problem.”

While they held hands, the two of them walked ahead in a casual manner.

Meanwhile, Matthew‘s eyes darkened when he heard their laughter in front of him. The moment he saw a long–lost smile on Elizabeth‘s face, he suddenly felt delighted.

When his eyes momentarily landed on Veronica‘s back, Matthew suddenly felt that she was like a bright light shining on his black–and–white world while peppering everything with color and light. This feeling... is quite nice.
