Chapter 504 A Beaten Matthew

Xavier, who was curious as well, told her upfront that it was not his intention to kidnap her. “You. What

other secrets do you have?”

“Secrets?” Feeling her brain go blank, Veronica was momentarily stunned. She had no secrets to

speak of. In fact, for a period of time, even Veronica was doubting herself that she was the root of the

problem. Up until now, she could not come up with a head start.

However, it was Xavier’s question that enlightened her. It was Crayson’s sudden appearance that led

her to think something was off, especially when he had been growing increasingly strict on her training

lately.

Under normal circumstances, a woman in her twenties—like Veronica—could defend herself

adequately with the skills she possessed, so it made more sense that she did not need to polish her

techniques further. Furthermore, when Hendrey left Bloomstead, he gave her a bracelet, stating that it

could save her in case of an emergency.

The last time she was riding the same car as Steven and Larry, Steven’s expression was very

strange upon laying eyes on the bracelet. There must be some secret in all this, but Steven did not

say anything.

Besides, Tiffany’s death was also not caused by Matthew, which made her death even more so

mysterious. The weider thing was that after Tiffany’s ‘death’, Randy went missing with Floch and

Rachel without looking further into their daughter’s death. Instead, they sold the company and

moved to Castron. Now that Tiffany is still alive, what does this all say?

Veronica, who felt that nothing was out of place before, could clearly detect that something was

awry in retrospect and that she might be harboring a secret which she had yet to discover.

But, if I’m keeping some sort of secret, then… Crayson did mention that Matthew broke up with her

because Zac and Conrad were targeting him, so he did not wish to implicate her as well. In

hindsight, those words might be false as well.

So, what is the real reason that Matthew broke up with me?

She remembered that when Thomas saw her, he did ask why she was willing to help Matthew.

From that, she could tell that Thomas knew something behind the scenes.

Gleaning from those words, she also knew that Matthew had his own reasons.

Is there a possibility… that Matthew did all this for me?

This train of thoughts spooked her as she only felt chills run down her back.

“What secrets can I possibly have? Aren’t your people monitoring me constantly? I think that your

men might even know me better than myself at this point.”

She then waved her hands impatiently. “Didn’t you say you wanted your revenge on Matthew? Just

do whatever you want to him. After that, let me take him away. If you can do that, then I’ll owe you

one this time, Xavier.”

Before she could make full sense of the situation, Veronica decided to proceed cautiously.

Her aim today was to first get Matthew out. When they left here, she would find a way to pry the

truth from his mouth.

“Looks like you really don’t care about him anymore.”

Blinking slowly, Xavier walked further in with Veronica following him.

Passing through a hallway, they arrived at a closed room.

Facing the hallway was a very thick pane of glass window. Behind it, there was a man who hung

on a cross.

Even though it was very dim inside, she could see that the person tied up was Matthew.

He was wearing a black suit pants and white shirt, yet his shirt was dotted with blood. Wounded all

over, he seemed to be unconscious.

Due to the spaciousness of the room, he was approximately thirty feet away from where Veronica

stood. Through the glass, she could see Matthew’s bloody figure as her heart slowly shattered into

pieces while sadness could not seem to hide itself from her face.

Used to seeing Matthew being so omnipotent, she could not accept the sight of him in such a pitiful

state. My heart is about to burst from the pain.

Pursing her lips, she clenched her teeth and her arms trembled for a bit.

Veronica, who feared that her emotions might get the better of her, put her hands in her pockets to

make it seem like she was relaxed. “I can tell that you hate him very much, but I heard that you

and Melissa made it out of Bloomstead just fine. Are you sure that Matthew had anything to do

with her death?”
