Her Biliionaire Husband (Veronica and Matthew) novel Chapter 154

Chapter 154

Skyler was so startled by Veronica‘s sudden appearance that he nearly lost his grip on the wine bottle. Matt‘s such a badass! He‘s really keeping the woman as a mistress. Since he‘s already keeping her as a mistress, why would he drink like a fish? What is he acting so mawkish for?

Keeping silent as usual, Caleb looked Veronica up and down without saying a word, whereas Skyler put down the wine bottle, sized her up with an evil leer, and flirted, “Wow, what a pretty babe we‘ve got here.” Having met Tiffany in person, they had to admit that Tiffany did have the mild disposition and easy manner of a well–bred young lady from a respectable family. On top of being gentle and demure, Tiffany exuded the qualities of a pampered and refined young lady of note. This woman, on the other hand, was dressed plainly. Despite her striking resemblance to Tiffany, she had a coldly elegant air about her that made her attractive somehow.

“I‘m asking you who you guys are! How did you get in here without permission?” Veronica asked while looking around, but she didn‘t see Matthew anywhere.

Folding his arms across his chest in a raffish manner, Skyler motioned at the door, saying, “I walked in here, of course. The door‘s right there.”

“Isn‘t that bullsh*t? Could you have crawled in here?” Veronica gave Skyler a disdainful look. “Who are you guys looking for?”

Skyler‘s curiosity was piqued by the woman. He couldn‘t help but joke, “Hey, babe, isn‘t your attitude a little too much? We‘re sworn friends with Matthew, so that attitude of yours won‘t do.”

Veronica shot back, “What kind of attitude do you want, then? Do you want me to worship you and make offerings to you like you‘re a god or something?” What a lunatic! As expected, birds of a feather flock together. Matthew‘s buddies are like him; they‘re condescending, as though they‘re anxious to be spoiled by people all over the world. He‘s simply nuts.

Skyler didn‘t expect Veronica to talk back to him. Dumbstruck at first, he then looked back at Caleb and couldn‘t hide his amusement. “Ah, you‘re quite interesting, babe. Wanna consider making friends with me?” He raised an eyebrow at her with interest.

Veronica shot a scornful look at him. “Cozying up to me like a toady right now after talking down to me just a moment ago, huh? What a quick change of attitude.” With that, she turned toward Matthew‘s room without bothering to continue entertaining such a frivolous man.

Skvier was quite slippant on most occasions, but he had never been dissed like this by a woman besore. Inwardly displeased, he decided to pretend to teach this fiery tempered woman some manners, so he grabbed her shoulder, saying, “Stop right there! Take back what you said just now, babe, or I‘m gonna kill you.”

Veronica paused in her tracks before turning her head slightly to give Skyler a : disdainful look out of the corner of her eye. “You‘re the one who showed me how to be a toady and a stuck–up snob at the same time. You‘re condescending to me one moment and playing up to me the next. Weren‘t you the one who said those words yourself? If somebody has to take back what they said, you‘re the one who‘s gonna do

it.”

Rendered speechless by Veronica‘s words, Skyler was simmering with anger. After all, when had he ever been trifled with like this by a woman? He felt that he had been challenged. F*ck, to think that I‘d be challenged by a woman! “I‘m gonna count to three. If you don‘t apologize to me, I‘ll make you crawl out of here!” he warned in a stern voice.

Caleb looked at Skyler before turning to look meaningfully at Veronica. After raising his eyebrows with interest, he settled back on the sofa right away, folding his arms across his chest–while watching the man and the woman with great interest.

“Get off me!” Veronica warned in displeasure.

“Three…”

“Let go of me!”

“Hold on a minute,” Matthew called out to her. Seeing that the woman was leaving, he asked, “Is our deal yesterday no longer valid today?”

Startled, Veronica looked back at Matthew. “Can‘t you be a decent human being, Matthew? Yeah, we‘ve got a deal whereby I‘m supposed to teach you how to play games. But the normal working hours are eight hours per day, and it‘s been eight hours from the moment I taught you at about 12:00AM yesterday until now.” With a straight face, she pointed at her wristwatch, which showed that it was exactly 9:30AM.

“What the hell, Matt? I‘m an expert at—” Skyler said to Matthew while massaging his aching butt, only to be silenced mid–sentence at once by Matthew‘s piercing glare.

“You went to sleep at about 4:00AM yesterday,” Matthew said.

Veronica replied, “Well, 1 did go to sleep at the time, but you didn‘t wake me up either. You‘re the person in charge here. Since you didn‘t wake me up despite knowing that I was sleeping, it meant you‘d silently given consent. So, the hours

didn‘t conflict with our deal. Goodbye!” She turned around and picked up several bags of clothes before strutting out of the room under the three men‘s stare.

However, as soon as she reached the door, she saw the delivery guy from One Piece Restaurant showing up outside the door. “Good morning. Here‘s the breakfast you‘ve ordered.” The delivery guy handed a large food insulation box directly to her in a deferential manner.

Veronica was startled, but she couldn‘t stop her stomach from rumbling just then. After giving it some thought, she took the food insulation box from the delivery guy.
