Her Billionaire Husband
Chapter 168
Chapter 168
A few swarthy, muscular goons with stern looks on their faces began to approach Veronica. At a glance, she could easily tell that these skilled men harbored nothing but ill intentions.
She wanted to make a run for it, but the thought of currently being in her hometown, and possibly involving Tony, Daniella, or even her master, and putting them in harm‘s way stopped her.
So, she decided to quickly think of the next possible thing to do. Using her quick thinking, she pretended to be unaffected by their presence. “What‘s up?” she calmly asked.
For them to stop the car right in front of her could only mean one thing—they already knew who she was and where she lived. Running away was futile, at this point.
“Miss Murphy,” the man who seemed to be the leader of the pack called out. “We are here under Young Master Matthew‘s instruction. We will be escorting you back to
Bloomstead.” Unlike his polite tone, his eyes were chillingly threatening as they leered at her.
It was as if he was saying Veronica would be brought back no matter what.
“Didn‘t he mention the reason for wanting me back?” she asked again despite fully expecting Matthew to eventually force her back. She knew that the man still wanted to have his fingers wrapped around this ‘pawn‘ of his.
However, she had only returned home the day prior. She did keep her phone turned off from then on as she had planned to disconnect herself from the world for a few days, but she didn‘t think Matthew would come for her so soon.
Why is Matthew in such a hurry? Could something have happened back at Bloomstead? she wondered
“We are only following orders. We don‘t know the rest.” Like a machine void of emotions and thoughts, the man replied to her dully.
“Alright. Give me a moment. Let me pack my stuff and I‘ll be right back.”
Knowing better than to provoke the group of men and not wanting to worry her parents and master, Veronica eventually agreed to follow them back to Bloomstead.
My apologies, Miss Mu–” The man started 10 object, only to be cut off by an angry roar from Veronica. She knew exactly what he was going to say.
