Her Biliionaire Husband (Veronica and Matthew)

At the Elysium Hotel.

After resting at Mountainside Gardens in the afternoon, Veronica found an excuse to take Matthew out after dinner and headed straight to Elysium Hotel.

Since she had Zac's contact information, Veronica dialed his number. "I'm here. Where are you?"

"Room 507. I'm waiting for you." Zac was concise with his words.

With that said, he hung up the phone right away.

Veronica looked at her phone that had been hung up, then glanced at Matthew beside her and entered the elevator.

As the elevator ascended, they arrived on the fifth floor. They found room 507 and knocked on the door.

Matthew and Veronica stood outside the room for a while. The room door opened, and Zac tilted his head, looking at Veronica at the door. He smiled. "I've been waiting for you."

After speaking, he stepped aside from the doorway, swinging the room door wide open. "Come in."

Veronica glanced at him coldly and walked in. Matthew, who was behind her, followed, but Zac raised his hand to stop him at the entrance. "Why are you coming in?"

After finally getting Veronica to come over, he couldn't let a bodyguard come in and cause trouble.

Veronica turned her head and gestured to Matthew with her eyes. "You can wait outside."

It was just a door away. Matthew could still rush in if anything unexpected happened, so there was nothing to worry about.

"Alright," he responded and glanced at Zac with a hint of warning.

After he left the room, Zac closed the door.

Veronica walked to the living room and took a seat on the sofa. Curiously, she inquired, "What did you want to say outside the palace today? Is something wrong with my child?"

"Have a drink first. We can talk about other things slowly."

Zac took a bottle of red wine from the wine cabinet, brought two stemmed glasses, and sat across from Veronica. While opening the wine bottle, he said, "You're quite passive in the hidden clan. I know you didn't want to be here, but if you're willing to help me, I can let you leave the hidden clan peacefully. Veronica, are you sure you don't want to consider it? I'll offer you favorable terms."

"Are you trying to buy me with the money you extorted from Yvonne's parents?"

Whenever she faced Zac, Veronica couldn't help but recall Yvonne's ordeal and associate Zac with the despicable acts he and Conrad had committed.

She let out a faint scoff between her breaths. "I'd be restless holding onto it, to be honest."

Zac's action of pouring wine paused for a moment, and a hint of amusement appeared on his face. "Those who achieve great things don't get bogged down in trivial matters."

He placed half a glass of wine before Veronica. "The hunting ceremony is an invitation to enter the trap. Are you sure you can come out unscathed after going deep into the mountains?"

Veronica glanced at the red wine on the table and instinctively remained wary of Zac. Instead of taking the wine, she asked, "Your partner is Tiffany Larson. Why are you plotting against me?"

"Tiffany? Haha."

Zac shook his head disdainfully, then picked up the red wine and took a sip. He crossed his legs and rested his right arm on the back of the sofa, taking on the demeanor of a magnate.

"Tiffany is like a flower nurtured in a greenhouse, pampered since childhood. This kind of woman is inadequate in success and excessive in failure. She secretly cozies up to others and is just a restless troublemaker."

Tiffany believed that her discreet approach to Dominik and Liam was unknown to Zac.

In fact, every move she made was under his surveillance, but she was of little value, and Zac couldn't be bothered to spend too much effort on her.
