Chapter 1056 Finding Out That Shirley Is Disfigured
"Huh? Well…" The light in Veronica's eyes danced with uncertainty, but after giving it a good thought,
she felt that his reasoning wasn't entirely unreasonable. "You're right. That b*stard Conrad is pure evil.
If he kidnaps the kids, I can't bear to imagine the consequences." She lowered her head and thought
this over carefully.
"It's fine if you don't find this as a good idea. I…" In her eyes, Matthew could see that she was reluctant
to part with the kids and wanted to take back the words he said earlier.
"No, I think that you have a point. I'm just thinking about where would be a suitable place to send the
kids to. After all, I'll be busy after this." She tilted her head and leaned against his shoulder again. "You
have a lot of things to get done, and I'll be swamped for quite some time. We won't have time to spare
for the kids. Why don't we send the kids to my parents?" At the thought of this, she felt that it was a
good idea. "My parents are bored in the village, and Waylen is… no longer around. I'm worried that
they'll feel lonely."
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtEven though she claimed it was for childcare, she actually wanted her parents to live somewhere else
while having the kids accompany them through their new life.
Matthew reached out and pinched her nose. "That's a great idea."
And thus, both of them reached an agreement.
The next day, Matthew went to work while Veronica went to her gaming company. Meanwhile, Troy and
Yvette were tasked with giving Eleanor a tour to get her used to life in Bloomstead. Besides Skyler and
Shirley, it seemed that everyone's life had returned to normal.
Matthew's appearance created another uproar, but the first thing he did after returning to work in his
company was to hold a press conference to disclose his identity as the shareholder of another
company and clarify the situation. Of course, his resurrection was definitely fake, and all the
explanations were merely perfunctory excuses.
On the other side, Sofia returned from Pinewoods Villa devastated and buried her head in the pillow,
crying through the night. The next day, two black circles formed around her eyes. When she passed by
the mirror, she nearly screamed in shock as she looked like a zombie, so she decided to have a facial
massage at the beauty salon.
After she drove herself to the beauty salon, the receptionists greeted her warmly when they saw her,
"Hello, Miss Green."
"Wow, you look even slimmer now, Miss Green."
"Miss Sofia, your skin is looking so good…"
A few beauticians showered her in flattery, each saying things that sounded like music to her ears, and
she opened her purse. Then, she took out some money and said to one of the attendants, "Buy some
snacks for everyone here and keep the change."
"Thank you, Miss Sofia!"
"Thanks, Miss Sofia."
"You're the best, Miss Sofia!"
All the attendants were delighted, and one of them even reminded her, "Miss Sofia, Miss Levine is in

Sofia was quite close with the owner of the beauty salon, Melinda Levine, and the attendant recognized
her because of her frequent visits.
"Okay," Sofia replied, went upstairs to Melinda's office, and opened the door without bothering to
knock.
Meanwhile, Melinda was reading through some customer information at the desk. When she heard the
sound of footsteps, she instinctively lifted her head to see Sofia walking in. "Oh, what brings you here
today?"
Sofia sighed and explained, "I didn't sleep well last night, and my skin looks awful, so I came for a
facial." Then, she approached Melinda, propped herself up lazily, and sat on her desk. Her eyes took a
fleeting glance at the documents on her desk casually, and her brows knitted together suddenly. Then,
she took another look at the information sheet and couldn't help but ask, "This girl… She's… Shirley?"
"Do you know her?" Melinda asked, surprised.
Sofia sprung to her feet, lowered her head, and stared at the paper on the desk before her eyes shifted
to the picture in the top right corner, which gave her quite a shock. "She… Why is she disfigured?"
