Chapter 290 Beware of Conrad

“You’re finally awake.”

A sudden voice scared her.

She then turned around to see Xavier curled up due to the cold with a pillow on him.

“Why are you here, Xavier?”

Scratching her head, Veronica clearly remembered that she had a bit too much to drink yesterday at Kings Residence and was about to ask the servants to send her back when Matthew insisted on taking her home instead. So, why is Xavier with me now?

“I called you last night only to have Conrad pick up. As he didn’t know where you lived and was suddenly preoccupied, he drove my car instead, wanting me to send you back. It was only when I picked you up that I realized you had moved. So, I could only bring you to a hotel under those circumstances.”

Xavier sat up from the sofa, rubbing his neck. “My neck’s all sore after sleeping on the sofa.”

“Are you having a stiff neck?”

Feeling somewhat apologetic, Veronica got out of bed. “Should I bring you to the hospital to check it out?”

He moved his neck around and answered. “It’s fine. I can bear with it.”

Since he had put it that way, Veronica did not say anything else. “I’ll freshen up, and then we can go for breakfast.”

“Okay.” He agreed.

Going into the bathroom, Veronica stood in front of the sink and looked at herself in the mirror while sighing lightly…
