Chapter 22
Veronica joked lightheartedly.
Seeing that she was here, Xavier put away his mobile phone, pushed open the car door, and got out of
the car. “What can I do? God made me so charming that all those young ladies love throwing themselves
at me.”
“Bah, how shameless.”
Veronica‘s face showed contempt.
In the whole of Bloomstead, although Xavier was a ‘swinger‘in everyone‘s mouth, no one dared to be so
presumptuous like Veronica in front of him due to the strength of the Crawford Family.
Only Veronica, who was like a sister to him, could ruthlessly nag him on his behavior.
“Let‘s go eat! I didn‘t eat lunch so that I can cost you a big one today.”
“Tsk, you say that, but God knows which woman‘s bed you were in this afternoon.”
The two walked to the food stall while talking.
Veronica naively thought that Xavier had never been to a food stall before, so she took the initiative to
order a lot of food.
While waiting for the food, she realized that the people around her threw them strange looks from time to
time.
“Damn, that handsome guy is so rich. He is driving the latest Maserati, which is worth more than 30
million.”
“Oh, Lord! The girl sitting across from him is so damn ugly.
“She is so ugly, and yet she can meet rich and handsome guys. I guess her family conditions are also
good.”
“Well, that makes sense.”
They could naturally hear the obvious whispers of the crowd.
Veronica didn‘t think too much of it. Instead, she looked at Xavier. “How about… we sit inside?”
She was afraid that Xavier wouldn‘t be able to bear the strange looks and gossip.
“You‘re afraid that I‘d feel ashamed? You‘re so cute.”

pried off the caps, poured two glasses of wine with a disposable cup, and took a sip. “As far as I can
remember, unpleasant words have been ringing in my cars everyday, but I still live at case. Well, we
shouldn‘t pay too much attention to other people‘s opinions but live for ourselves.” He raised his
eyebrows and looked at Veronica. “Only by practicing to be invincible will you not be hurt by gossip, and
it is also a means of protecting yourself. Come on. Cheers.”
“I can‘t drink.”
Veronica knew that she had a child in her womb, so she could only lie. “I‘m having my period. I‘ll have
some tea.”
She had known Xavier for three to four months, but most of their interactions were in the Twilight Club.
It was their first time coming out and having dinner like this.
From his words, Veronica discovered that perhaps Xavier was not the kind of trash that outsiders saw as
a good–for–nothing.
At the same time, at the Larson Residence.
When Floch got the information that he sent his people to investigate, he rushed back to the Larson
Residence and told Tiffany and Rachel the results. “Veronica Murphy has been pregnant with Matthew‘s
child for more than two months now.”
“What, p–pregnant? Impossible. Veronica has such an ugly face. How could Matthew even bring himself
to sleep with her?”
Tiffany could not accept such a result no matter what.
She picked up the documents on the table. In addition to various examinations, there were also photos of
Matthew and Veronica appearing in the hospital.
“I heard that Old Mrs. Kings gave Young Master Mathew medicine in order to let him have children. Who
knew that Veronica ran into Matthew by mistake, and the two naturally slept together…”
Floch explained.
However, his squared, dark–skinned face was full of anger. “This b*tch has such good luck”
Rachel sat on the sofa and carefully looked at the investigation results without saying a word.
On the contrary, Tiffany couldn‘t stay calm. “No, this can‘t be. If Veronica‘s child is born, how can I marry
Matthew?”
“Tiffany, calm down!”
Rachel snorted softly when she saw Tiffany‘s emotions burst out. “You have had a good relationship with
Matthew Kings in the past two months. Based on what he said, he is very satisfied with you, which
means that he does not love Veronica. Why are you angry?”
“But Veronica is pregnant with his child! I will never let that child see the world.”
Tiffany‘s face was red with anger, and her eyes were full of killing intent.
It was a terrifying look.
“Are you crazy? Don‘t forget who you are now. The thing with Veronica‘s parents hasn‘t subsided yet,
and you are already thinking of messing with Matthew‘s child? Do you still want to marry into the Kings
Family?” Rachel scolded. “If you don‘t curb your arrogance and impatience, you won‘t be able to make
great achievements in your life.”
After being reprimanded by Rachel, Tiffany finally calmed down.
As she sat on the sofa, her eyes were red with anger. She hated that b*tch, Veronica, to her core.
Just as the few fell silent, Tiffany‘s cell phone rang.
She sobbed, took out a tissue to wipe her tears, and looked at the screen of her mobile phone, only to
realize that it was Matthew‘s call.
“Tiffany immediately regained her composire, answered the phone, and said in a sofi, cotton–like voice,
“Matthew?”
“Would you like to marry into the Kings Family?”
Matthew was straight to the point, and his words were clear and concise,
“Huh? What? … I didn‘t hear what you said Mathew.”
How could she not?
She clearly heard that Matthew was asking her if she wanted to marry into his family!
However, the news was too sudden and caught her off guard,
It was as if a huge sum of money fell from the sky and knocked her duris.
“Do you want to marry me?”
“O–Of course, of course I want to.” Tiffany was belligerent with excitement. “But… Matthew, your
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmproposal is too sudden. I‘m not prepared at all…”
As the invitation had come in such an impromptu moment, all of the coy tactics such as playing hard to
get and being graceful had long been forgotten.
Matthew asked her if she wanted to marry into his family!!
“If you do, I will make it public in four days that I will get engaged to you.”
Veronica‘s child was already two months along, and Matthew knew that things could not be delayed any
longer, so he could only get engaged as soon as possible.
That way, after Veronica‘s child was born, he and Tiffany would get married, and the timing would be just
right.
Tiffany was overjoyed and suddenly felt that all her efforts were worth it.
She nodded. “I do. I do want to marry you.”
No one knew how excited and happy Tiffany was at the moment.
‘It was the Larson Family‘s greatest honor and her greatest wish to become Matthew‘s
bride.
“Alright. I‘ll ask Thomas to discuss other matters with your family soon.”
Matthew‘s attitude was indifferent. Even when discussing engagement with Tiffany, he was still as cold
as a block of ice—which made it difficult to understand his emotions.
After hanging up the phone, Tiffany emotionally looked at Rachel with a pair of red eyes, and then
directly ran into her arms. “Mommy, Matthew wants to get engaged to me. He said that he will get
engaged to me in four days!”
“Really?”
“Yes, I‘m sure. I‘m very sure.”
“That‘s good, that‘s good, my dear. You‘re a noble young lady, and marrying Young Master Matthew must
be God‘s plan.”
Rachel patted her shoulder with great relief, seemingly in a very delighted mood.
Tiffany, who was beaming with excitement, took a while to calm down–but her face suddenly looked as if
it was void of joy.
As she looked at the investigation documents on the table, she frowned. “Matthew is about to get
engaged to me. Should we still keep the child in Veronica‘s belly?”
