Her Biliionaire Husband (Veronica and Matthew) novel Chapter 539

Chapter 539 Treachery

Yvonne felt touched, knowing that Veronica had done everything for her sake. The two of them sat in the living room and chatted for a bit, but Yvonne was out of it. When she noticed that it was already close to eight, her eyes lit up as she thought of a plan. “Roni, I won’t ask you to stay the night here since I want to sleep with the baby. I’m afraid that… the baby will disturb you.”

Looking at the warm scene of Yvonne doting her baby, Veronica felt slightly envious. “Alright, then you should have some rest. I’ll be back tomorrow morning.” She knew that Yvonne wanted to spend some time alone with the child as she hadn’t seen the child for some time, so she didn’t want to disturb the mother-son bonding time. Thus, after a few more pleasantries, she left the villa.

As there were many mercenaries stationed for the villa’s protection, there shouldn’t be any problems as long as Yvonne stayed put. Not to mention, it would only be one night before she flew back to Castron. Even if Conrad is fast in gathering information, news of the child returning to Yvonne wouldn’t reach his ears that fast, she thought.

Nonetheless, Veronica felt a vague sense of uneasiness. So, instead of going to Matthew, she decided to first stop by Vincere Games. Since she would be away from Bloomstead for a long time to undertake the Devil’s training, she needed to take care of the company’s affairs before leaving.

Fortunately, she had a good relationship with the partners of the company. Thus, she only needed to explain to them that she would be out of contact for some time as she would be undergoing special training in Castron and that she would arrange for someone to take care of the company’s affairs in her place. As the partners made no objections, she left after spending close to two hours in the company.

When Veronica came back to Twilight Condominium, she found Matthew in the living room. Sitting on the couch while working on his laptop, he looked as though he was waiting for her return.

“Why aren’t you sleeping yet?” Veronica asked while she changed into her indoor shoes. Then, she walked over to Matthew and wrapped her arms around his neck before she kissed him on the cheek.

Closing his laptop and setting it aside on the table, the man then looped his left arm around Veronica’s waist. “I was waiting for you.”

“Matt, you’re such a wonderful man.” With a smile filled with desire, she rested her chin on the man’s shoulder with her head slightly tilted enough for the man’s face to come into her peripheral vision. Then, she lamented, “When I saw how gentle and tender Yvonne was when she had her baby in her arms, I was envious of her.”

“Is that not a simple matter? Your husband can grant you your wish whenever you desire,” Matthew said with a mischievous smile.

Veronica pondered with a frown before she said, “That little baby was really cute. However, I don’t wish to have a child yet. Since I’m still a child, I don’t want to be raising another child.”

“It’s no concern. I can work a little harder in raising two ‘children.'”

“Wouldn’t that be too hard on you?”

Although she had posed such a question, she was still touched and felt her heart melt into a puddle listening to Matthew. Though he was several years older than her, he had always taken great care of her. She enjoyed such a life where she was pampered daily by him.

“Taking care of my wife and child is not only my obligation but also my duty, so it won’t be hard on me. On the contrary, it would be… my honor.” Matthew pinched her cheeks. “Grandma has always wanted a grandchild. Don’t you want to fulfill her wishes?”

“You’re saying it as though I can make a baby on my own.”

As Yvonne did not trust Conrad, she was afraid to accept a drink from him. “I don’t want to talk to you that much.” And so, she ignored the man as she only fiddled with her phone with the child in her arms. In truth, she wasn’t in the mood to be fiddling with her phone right now. None of the videos she played on the phone were even on her mind, as she could only think of the baby in her arms. Must I really hand my child over? She was still hesitating.

Half an hour later, the result of the expedited test was out. After comparing the DNA of the two samples, it was confirmed that the child was indeed Conrad’s. Thus, he put down his phone and walked up to Yvonne. “Now then, give me the child. Let me see just what a child of my genes looks like.”

“Delete the videos first!” Yvonne raised her voice as she hugged the child tightly, unwilling to hand the child over.

“Alright, alright. I’ll delete them.” With his phone in hand, Conrad sat beside Yvonne as he deleted each and every one of the videos from his phone. “There, all deleted.”

After Conrad deleted the videos, Yvonne went through the recycle bin on the phone and the file application on the phone. When she had confirmed that there were no longer traces of the videos, she heaved a sigh of relief. However, she immediately felt a sense of regret the moment she cast her eyes downward at the child in her arms. “Jerry, Eric!”

Upon Yvonne’s words, the two bodyguards outside instantly entered the ward. As Conrad’s attention shifted to the two bodyguards, she immediately stood up and made her way out of the ward with her baby. Since Jerry and Eric were the strongest among the mercenaries stationed in the villa, they would, at the very least, be able to handle ten men on their own, so she held hope that she would be able to make a getaway here.

“Block his path while I leave with the child,” Yvonne instructed the two men and was about to leave the ward, but was stopped by Jerry and Eric. “Hey, what are you doing? Move aside! I told you to block that man!” she yelled while trying to drag them away from her path. However, the two of them remained still as they continued to block the ward exit.

“Hahahaha…” Behind Yvonne, Conrad let out a laugh. Leaning on the couch, he took out a cigarette and placed it in his mouth. After lighting the cigarette and taking a drag, he asked, “Just where does the little princess think she’s going? Hmm?”
