Her Biliionaire Husband (Veronica and Matthew) novel Chapter 481

Chapter 481 Completely Out of Job

After Veronica and Ruka stayed in Castron for a week, they were still unable to find out anything about Hendrey’s whereabouts. Finally, disappointed and discouraged, they could only return to Bloomstead empty-handed.

“I’m sorry I’ve wasted a week of your time.” When they arrived at Bloomstead, Ruka said to Veronica apologetically, “Are you sure you don’t want to work with me?”

Everything was going smoothly when Veronica worked at Starshine Media Agency, but they terminated her contract, and Matthew was exerting pressure on her now. What should she do afterward? Ruka wondered, worried for her.

Veronica shook her head. “It’s fine. I can take care of it,” she said, confident in herself.

“Okay.” In the face of Veronica’s confidence, Ruka didn’t want to force the issue anymore and waved her hand. “Oh, all right. Bye-bye!”

“See you!”

After she said her goodbyes to Ruka, she drove home and slept for a day due to jet lag.

The next day after she woke up, she trained with Crayson.

As he never interfered much with her private life, and she had already asked for leave before going to Castron, he didn’t say much about her sudden absence.

When she was finished with morning training and breakfast, only then did she open the job-searching app and send out her resume.

Matthew had heartlessly turned against her for Sasha’s sake, and she would like to find out if he was really that ruthless.

Thus, she was occupied the entire day as she sent out more than a dozen applications and made many calls just for a job. In the end, as she expected, she was turned down by all of them.

“I’m sorry, you’re not the right fit for the position.”

“Sorry, our company is fully-hired.”

“Ha, Miss Murphy. This is an order from Young Master Matthew, and we can’t make an enemy out of him because of you.”

“Veronica Murphy, you say? Hmph, don’t come and mess with our company.”

In the calls, the people were either rejecting her indirectly or directly, and there were even some who avoided her like the plague.

Unable to find a job, she stood on the balcony and stared into the distance as she pondered deeply about her current situation. Finally, she focused her thoughts on one person.

Finally, she dressed up simply and drove to her destination.

Half an hour later, she arrived at Luminesce Enterprise, Miguel’s company.

In Bloomstead, the Kings were the leading family amongst the four greatest families, while the Lynch Family held the last place amongst the four.

Veronica entered Luminesce Enterprise, then politely introduced herself to the receptionist, “Hello, I’m Veronica Murphy, and I have an appointment with Mr. Lynch.”

Of course, she didn’t have an appointment with him, but this wasn’t the point.

“My brother sent me here to pass something to him,” she added.

The receptionist thought that her name sounded familiar. “Uhm… Who’s your brother?”

“Oh, I forgot to introduce myself. My brother is Matthew Kings, and I’m the god-granddaughter of Old Mrs. Kings.”

Back then, this issue caused quite a commotion in Bloomstead, and Veronica purposely brought this up so that the receptionist wouldn’t turn her away and would take her upstairs.

Sure enough, after hearing Veronica’s introduction, the receptionist became very friendly to her. “I see, so you’re Miss Murphy! I know who you are. Are you here to deliver something for Mr. Lynch? Here, follow me upstairs.”

She didn’t hesitate to take a seat on the couch and didn’t ask him what he meant with his question at all. Instead, she lifted her head to look at him, and she could clearly see the awkwardness and helplessness on his face, which inexplicably amused her.

“Why are you visiting me? I’m doing fine.” After he adjusted his glasses in a nervous gesture, he scratched his head. “Just tell me why you’re here.”

While he started a small talk with Veronica, he paced to his desk as he played with his phone in his hands.

Veronica didn’t say anything when he had his cell phone in his hands, and the second he set it aside, she asked, “Did you send out the news?”

“What?” he blurted, confused.

“The text you just sent to Matthew. Why are you asking me?”

She thought this was highly mocking because she knew Miguel would contact Matthew, but that sat just fine with her because she wanted to meet Matthew today.

“That… I-I was just asking Matthew what he’s doing.” His eyes wavered, and he appeared more guilty with every passing second.

“I’ll tell you honestly, Miggy. It’s true that I’m here today because I’m in trouble.” Veronica didn’t like to beat about the bush as she went straight to the point.

“What happened?”

“I’m jobless now, and I can’t find a job. As you know, Matthew is deliberately making my life difficult, and I’m completely broke and destitute. I’m desperate now, so I came looking to you for help. Will you consider accepting me?”

Just the thought of the things between Matthew and Sasha, she was filled with anger and disappointment, and she came looking for Miguel today because she was sure he would contact Matthew. So, she planned to meet Matthew and talk things out face-to-face.

“A-Accept you?”

Veronica literally meant that she hoped that he could hire her and let her work in Luminesce Enterprise to support herself, but it took on a different meaning when it reached Miguel’s ears.
