Chapter 407 Xavier’s Broken Promise

Ding— Suddenly, there was a notification on WhatsApp from Veronica’s phone.

She unlocked her phone and took a look. It was a message from Matthew. ‘Today’s your birthday and I’ve ordered you a cake. Send me your location. I’ll arrange for the cake to be delivered to you. I won’t turn up.’

If she was safe, then she would be able to send him her location and he could come over to save her.

Veronica continued to consider the situation, but everything flashed through her mind quite quickly and she hesitated about whether to send her location to Matthew.
