Her Billionaire Husband

Chapter 983 Care For Her

When Hendrey later returned to his home, he found an unwanted guest waiting for him. It was Zac.

Zac was sitting on his living room couch with a cigarette held between his fingers. With cold eyes, he watched as Hendrey walked into the place. He raised an eyebrow and asked, "Where were you?"

The way he held himself turned the question into an interrogation.

"Veronica vanished. I went to help look for her," Hendrey honestly replied without holding a single detail back.

Zac took a few puffs of the cigarette held between his fingers before slowly exhaling. "What does her disappearance have to do with you? Why do you need to look for her? What? Do you still love her?"

"Do I look like someone who's into romance? Women are just to have fun with."

Hendrey walked into the room and sat across from Zac with a faux calm before casually continuing, "I heard that there is a way to seal off someone's memories among the hidden clan. The moment Veronica's memories are sealed off, she would be forever loyal to Crayson and Hayley. Overnight, she would turn into Dominik's greatest enemy, which means she would be your greatest enemy, Your Highness."

Hendrey pulled out a cigarette from the box on the table, lit it, and held it between his lips. "You and Matthew Kings are enemies. Nothing good will come out of her becoming the head of the clan. At this moment, it would be best to keep your friends close and your enemies closer. Helping her means helping ourselves."

It certainly sounded like Hendrey was doing everything for Zac's sake.

In reality, Hendrey had always cared for Veronica. He was simply unable to expose his true identity due to certain reasons.

Zac only somewhat believed that explanation. He kept staring at Hendrey with his blue eyes as though he wanted to verify the authenticity of the statement from Hendrey's facial expression. However, he observed nothing unusual.

He leaned back and crossed his legs. The hand with the cigarette rested on his knee as he tapped his finger in thought.

Moments later, he asked, "Was she found?"

"No."

Hendrey shook his head. "Matthew thinks Crayson has most likely sealed off her memories by now. From now on, Matthew would no longer fight back even if Veronica ends up being loyal to Crayson. I'm afraid it will be even harder for you to work with Prince Dominik."

"Waylen is very harsh when it comes to Veronica. He watched her grow up, did he not? What an absolutely unbearable coward."

Even Zac thought Waylen's actions were extremely shameless and vile.

"Crayson only looks at the big picture. He wants the power of being the head of the clan, so nothing could stand in his way."

Hendrey frowned with worry in his eyes. "Such a man is the most terrifying."
