Bumpkin's Rich Handsome Husband

Chapter 1245 Entanglements


"Matt, for my sake, can you spare Xavier?" Veronica pleaded.

Veronica didn't want to see the two of them fight because she didn't know who she should help.

"Spare Xavier?" Matthew repeated Veronica's words, a hint of pain appearing in his brown eyes behind the colored contact lenses.

The two of them locked eyes for a few seconds, and the man's lips curled into a sarcastic smirk. "You care about him that much?"

Sensing Matthew's cold expression, Veronica lowered her head in guilt, unable to meet his gaze.

After waiting for a while and not getting a response from her, he assumed her answer.

Matthew's face grew even colder, and he brushed away Veronica's hand that was holding his left wrist. Veronica instinctively tightened her grip on his other wrist with her right hand.

Yet, in the end, he heartlessly pushed her away.

With that, he turned and walked away.

Veronica panicked and raised her voice. "Matt, please, I'm begging you."

The man, who had just stepped out of the room, paused his steps. His body stiffened, and a cold air enveloped him in an instant.

His fists clenched tightly by his sides, indicating his anger.

The two of them stood there in a stalemate for a long time.

In the end, Matthew took a step forward and left while Veronica remained motionless.

Downstairs, Skyler returned to his room, and a bored Shirley sat in front of the computer, playing games.

When she heard someone coming back, she immediately left the study and saw Skyler returning. She smiled and asked, "You're back?"

Skyler glanced at the living room, where every light was on, and the computer was still playing loud external sounds.

He understood that Shirley was unfamiliar with the hidden clan and was afraid of the darkness here.

"Were you waiting for me?" Skyler had a strange illusion, feeling like Shirley was a wife waiting for her husband to return.

This feeling was incredible.

Bringing her to the hidden clan was indeed the right decision.

"Huh?" Shirley was taken aback. She carefully pondered over Skyler's words, feeling that something was off, and it made her mind wander involuntarily.

She shook her head. "No, nothing. I was just playing games alone and wanted you to play with me."

"Is that so?" Skyler smirked mischievously, his wicked smile captivating.

"Yes, of course. Our company develops games, and it would be beneficial for me to learn more about games while I have some free time."

She came up with a reasonable excuse.
