Her Billionaire Husband

The Indifferent Demeanor

Matthew Kings’ demeanor towards Su Meiyi was clearly indifferent. This observation caused his eyebrows to furrow slightly and his lips to form a straight line. After a moment, he spoke resolutely, “I will handle your situation. Today’s incident will never happen again.”

Veronica Murphy was deeply moved by his determined words. She turned around, blinked her long eyelashes, and planted a kiss on his face, which was just inches away from her. “Thank you for your efforts.”

“Silly girl, your problems are my problems. There’s no need to talk about efforts.”

Matthew Kings placed his hand on her cheek and kissed her lips. But as their lips met, and she tasted the sweetness on his lips, she couldn’t help but savor it greedily.

As they kissed, a fire seemed to ignite within their hearts. Matthew Kings regained his composure and immediately released her. “You’re truly intoxicating.”

He playfully pinched her face and brushed her hair off her forehead. “I really have to leave now. Contact me if anything comes up.”

“Be careful on the road, call me if anything happens.” Veronica Murphy got up from the bed, and when she saw Matthew Kings walking out, she slipped on her slippers and followed him out of the bedroom.

Click.

Just as she stepped out of the bedroom, she heard the sound of the door closing. The empty living room no longer held Matthew Kings’ figure; he had already hurriedly departed.

Something important must have occurred in Bloomstead. In the evening, Veronica Murphy, Eleanor Gomez, and Troy Ritter casually dined at the hotel restaurant. Later, the two girls chatted in Veronica Murphy’s room.

Buzz-

Just as Eleanor Gomez was engrossed in conversation, Veronica Murphy’s phone vibrated.

She picked up her phone and glanced at it. It was a call from Sean Ludwig. Without hesitation, she answered, “The crew just called, saying that Mia Stuart has gone missing. Do you know where she went?”

On the other end of the phone, Sean Ludwig asked anxiously.

“Su…”

Veronica Murphy was about to say something but subconsciously glanced at Eleanor Gomez and immediately changed her words, “I don’t know.”

“Okay, I’ll keep searching.” Sean Ludwig hung up the phone. Veronica Murphy placed her phone aside on the sofa and continued chatting with Eleanor Gomez, “What were you saying just now? You mentioned that you want to venture out on your own next year?”

Eleanor Gomez: “Yes, I can’t be with you guys every day.”

Hearing her words, Veronica Murphy glared at her. “Are you out of your mind? Do you think Dominik Ledger gave you too much money and you’re uncomfortable until you spend it all?”

Note: The translation may vary depending on the context and the intended meaning of certain phrases.

“It’s not like that. Oh, I was just thinking.” Eleanor Gomez patted Veronica Murphy on the back. “Look how worried you are.”

“You better dismiss those unrealistic thoughts.” Veronica Murphy shook her head, finding Eleanor Gomez’s ideas a bit naive.

They chatted for a while, and then Veronica Murphy intentionally yawned several times. “I’m so tired, I want to take a nap. Let’s talk tomorrow.”

“It’s only a few o’clock and you’re already tired?” Eleanor Gomez teased. “You really are sick, your body is weak. Tsk tsk, if you don’t take care of yourself, I’m afraid you won’t be able to handle Matthew Kings’ ‘antics’.”

She raised an eyebrow and smiled as she got up. “You go to sleep, I’ll go back to my room first.”

“What are you talking about? Your mind is filled with nonsense.” Veronica Murphy laughed and sighed at the same time. She got up and walked Eleanor Gomez to the living room door, then closed it.

Back on the sofa, Veronica Murphy immediately picked up her phone and called Hanson Zinkley. “Find out where Matthew Kings’ people took Mia Stuart right away.”

Hanson Zinkley and Colt Mullen were both her capable assistants, her right-hand men. Veronica Murphy trusted their ability to get things done.

After a brief response, Hanson Zinkley called back after about ten minutes. “She was taken to the hillside near Chestnut Mountain.”

“Chestnut Mountain? Send me the exact location immediately.” With that, Veronica Murphy ended the call, changed her clothes, and left the hotel.
