Her Billionaire Husband

Chapter 511 He Deserves to Die

“I-I really don’t know.” Through the walkie-talkie, Veronica could hear Troy’s trembling voice from all the torture. Although she frowned with mixed feelings, she propped her chin in the palm of her left hand on the table. Acting all relaxed, she placed a card at the center of the table.

“He’s still not telling? Troy is such a bullhead.” Veronica smiled. “Perhaps, he really doesn’t know. You are quite peculiar though, Antheena. Why are you asking an outsider instead of the person involved?”

In spite of the worries she had for Troy, she could not let it show on her face. Or else, the others would catch onto something. As soon as she finished her words, Antheena raised her eyebrow. “I can’t trust your words.”

She then turned to look at Xavier. “Sebastian, which punishment is the most painful one?”

Xavier lit a cigarette and pondered. “I reckon rubbing salt into the wound hurts the most.” When he said that, he was referring to the actual act, not the phrase.

“You’re so mean, Sebastian.” She burst into a laughter before she spoke over the walkie-talkie, “Did you hear that?”

“Yes, Young Mistress,” the person on the other end replied. Staying quiet, Veronica took a glimpse at Xavier indifferently. Looking at the slight curve on her lips, he could not figure out what was on her mind.

Aside from him, Antheena and Hendrey were having a hard time reading her mind as well. To them, she was merely a country bumpkin. Even if she came from a distinguished family, she had not seen the real world yet. However, her nonchalant demeanor gave them a surprise.

“Argh!” Before long, a jarring scream resounded from the walkie-talkie. “It hurts. It hurts… I-I don’t know. I really don’t know.”

“Still tight-lipped about it, huh? You guys continue then.” Antheena set the walkie-talkie on the chair next to her before smiling at Veronica. “I’m feeling lucky today, so let’s continue with the card game.”
