Her Billionaire Husband

Chapter 257 An Unexpected Runway Walk

When Matthew saw these lines, his face went green. He then snapped the book shut and tossed it into the trash can.

After that, he stood up and walked to his desk to resume his work.

Minutes passed, and despite being busy until three o’clock in the afternoon, there was still no incoming text message from Veronica.

Matthew, who was feeling a little melancholy, leaned back in his executive chair, turned the signature pen in his hand, and involuntarily glanced over at the trash can.

After that, he stood up with hesitation, walked to the trash can, and picked up the book again.

Fortunately, there was no trash in the bin, so the book was still clean.

He flipped to the title page and continued reading…

…

Veronica had no idea what had happened here.

She had some free time after being preoccupied with everything else, and she remembered the message Matthew had sent her at the time.

She took out her phone and sent a reply, ‘I was busy in the morning, so I didn’t see your text.’

Not long after the message was sent, another message arrived, ‘There is a newly opened restaurant that serves delicious food. Do you want to have dinner together tonight?’

Matthew’s invitation was too direct, and Veronica could sense his enthusiasm. However, she declined. ‘I can’t make it. Yvonne invited me to a jewelry exhibition tonight.’

She had a headache from his intense pursuit and didn’t know what to do.

This message was like a stone sinking into the sea after it was sent, and there was no response.
