Chapter 48

Shes in trouble?

As Matthew slightly frowned, his handsome face showed signs of concern; it looked like he was in deep thought.

This change of emotion wasn’t only noticed by himself, though.

At that moment, Tiffany happened to walk out of the ward and saw at once that something seemed off with him, so she asked, “Matthew, is there something wrong?”

Just as Matthew received news about Veronica, the Larsons had already informed Tiffany about their plans.

Not even a few seconds after immersing herself in happiness, Tiffany overheard Matthew being on the phone with someone.

Although it was vague, she knew it was likely to be something concerning Veronica.

That was the reason why she had gone out. Since she had a restless mind, she wanted to ask about what happened.

Pacing around the living room, Matthew turned back and saw Tiffany before immediately hanging up on his call.

“Why are you still awake at this ungodly hour?”

Keeping his phone away, he cast a distant gaze on her.

As there was an extra bed in the ward, Matthew had arranged for Tiffany to sleep on it while he would spend the night on the living room’s couch.

“I.” After pursing her lips, she replied, “I could not sleep.”

“Oh.”

The moment he heard her answer, he only gave an uncaring response before staring into a random space in the living room to immerse himself in his own thoughts.

His strange demeanor made the perplexed Tiffany ask with a frown, “Matthew, is everything alright?”

Her words snapped Matthew back to reality as he looked at her at an angle, “There’s something at the company that I need to deal with: I’ll come back later.”

After saying that, he turned around and left.
