Chapter 634 What Happened to Matt
Veronica was frozen as she held the phone, her pale lips gaping, but her throat was so tight that she
was unable to say a word, as if she had lost her voice.
“Huh… What did you say? What happened to Matt?” Finally, Veronica roared, her voice as hoarse as a
crow. On the other end of the phone, the man paused. “Who are you?”
“Answer me! I’m asking you, what happened to Matt? Answer me now!”
In that instant, Veronica’s emotions crumbled, and she stood up in a flash, her tears streaming down
her face like a river. She did not look pained, but instead, her pale face was robotic, as if she were a
puppet, and only her open eyes kept streaming with tears, like a trickling fountain.
“Veronica?” Hendrey’s heart thumped. “W-Why are you with Xavier?” “Hendrey, answer my question!”
Veronica finally found her voice and asked quietly.

happened to Xavier. After hesitating, he said, “Anthony bribed Troy, and heavily wounded Matthew.
He…”
All of a sudden, the phone turned silent. “Hello? Hello? Keep going!” Veronica shouted a few times, but
she did not receive any response. When she looked at the phone again, there was no longer any
signal.
Her body went limp and she sat on the edge of the bed, the phone slipping out of her hand and
dropping to the ground, bouncing a few times before it eventually stopped moving.
At that moment, her mind was blank, her right eyelid was no longer twitching wildly, and even her heart,
which had been tense and restless all afternoon, instantly eased up. As if knowing the result and that
everything was as she expected, she gradually calmed down.
She sat numbly on the edge of the bed, and her eyes, which had been flowing with tears, gradually
dried up. Raising her hand to brush away the tear marks on her cheeks, Veronica quickly gathered her
emotions and calmed herself down.
She got up and walked out of the room, deliberately glancing at the people in the first floor hall as she
passed by the railing. When those few people saw her, they first looked up at her in unison, then they
turned back one after another, hanging their heads, not saying anything.
Veronica indifferently walked to her room and changed into a casual outfit, carrying her cell phone with
her, before she opened the back window and slowly jumped down the balcony, disappearing into the
twilight.
After leaving the villa and going down the hill, she looked at the cars parked on the roadside and
casually drove one away without anyone noticing her.
As she sped along the road, she gradually realized that she didn’t get any calls at all, as if her phone
was broken. She pulled over to the side of the road and fumbled with her phone, only to find that the
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmbackground wallpaper of the phone was replaced with a signal alert on it, but in reality, the phone was
set to airplane mode.
Immediately, she connected to the internet, and her phone began to vibrate frenziedly with a huge
influx of text messages and WhatsApp messages; it was almost as if her phone was about to blow up
with messages.
Seeing that, Veronica was a little annoyed with the messages that kept pouring in as it affected her
speed of opening her call history. Swiping a notification away, she finally tapped on Matthew’s phone
number and called him, even though her phone was still vibrating after she made the call. Beep,
beep…
The call was made, but nobody answered her call. Though she tried again, all she heard was the dial
tone, and nobody answered even after making several calls.
Then, she began calling Miguel, but he didn’t pick up. Even though she called Caleb, Skyler, Crayson,
and Troy, none of them were willing to answer her calls, as if they had agreed on it beforehand.
