Chapter 630 Losing Contact With Matthew
After a long time, somebody came and rescued Veronica and Xavier. It was Thomas. When he saw
Xavier, he pointed his gun at the latter in an attempt to get rid of him, but Veronica stretched out her
hand and stopped him. “He’s the one who saved me,” she said.
Thomas knitted his brows, thinking that she was being sentimental. “Mrs. Kings, we’ll bring endless
trouble upon ourselves if we don’t kill him right now.”
“In that case, just wait until he has fully recovered and leaves. You guys may do whatever you want by
then.” Tilting her head to one side, she looked at Xavier—who was lying on the ground—with a frown
and a complicated look on her face. “But now, no one’s allowed to touch him!” she said in an
authoritative tone that brooked no objections.
Thomas clenched his fists angrily. In the end, he let out a snort and signaled to the bodyguards behind
him to take Xavier away with a wave of his hand.
The group safely returned to Primrose Residence. Everything inside was fine; perhaps those people
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtdidn’t stop here after they broke in and failed to find the person they were looking for. Naturally, the
inside of the villa wasn’t damaged.
After returning to the villa, Veronica was brought to her bedroom to lie down and rest.
Destiny came to her side while carrying the first-aid kit. She asked, “You’ve been shot in the left arm,
and the bullet has to be removed. Do you need… an anesthetic or something?” She worried that the
latter couldn’t stand the pain of her skin being torn apart.
Looking as pale as a sheet, Veronica lay in bed while staring at the ceiling before shaking her head.
“No, I don’t need it.” She was now pregnant. If she were to use an anesthetic, it’d do great harm to the
babies in her womb.
“Okay. Put up with it, then.” Sitting down next to her, Destiny began to clean the wound and removed
the bullet for her.
Naturally, the process was very painful, but all Destiny saw was Veronica’s tautened face, the deep
furrows in her brow, and her clenched teeth. However, she didn’t hear any cry of pain from the latter.
Her incredibly strong endurance and astonishing willpower beat her expectations, and for the very first
time, she saw this young lady in a different light. No wonder Mr. Crayson praises her again and again in
front of everyone. She deserves that indeed.
After removing the bullet, she quickly stitched the wound before dressing and bandaging it.
Veronica was already drenched all over with sweat, and her lips were bloodless.
“It’s done. You rest for a while.” Destiny took away the dirty and bloodstained sheet beneath Veronica.
Then, she stood up, packed up the stuff, and prepared to leave the bedroom.
Veronica immediately asked, “Where is Matt? Why hasn’t he come back yet?” It’d been five hours since
she left in the afternoon, but she hadn’t heard anything about Matthew so far, nor had she seen
Crayson, Skyler, and others. This unnerved her very much, and she grew more and more worried with
each passing second.
A peculiar look flashed across Destiny’s eyes. Lowering her head, she cleaned the non-existent dust
off herself, saying, “It was a fierce battle. They fought all the way from inside the hotel to the outside
before escaping in a car while being chased along the way. Nobody knows where they went in the end,
but there was a fire in the hotel, so a lot of police officers and firefighters were sent out. Someone in the
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmgovernment is suppressing the news, so those who were wounded or dead are all counted as
casualties of the fire.”
The number of casualties was falsely reported to avoid unnecessary unrest that caused panic in the
outside world. After all, somebody had gone to the scene of the incident to deal with the aftermath, so
there were few people left when the police arrived.
Veronica only worried about Matthew’s safety, though. She immediately asked, “Have you guys called
them? Are you guys able to reach them?”
Destiny shook her head. “No, we can’t reach any of them.”
Veronica grew even more uneasy. She sat up in bed at once, saying, “You mean they can’t be
reached? What about your people, then? Can’t they be reached as well?”
Destiny explained, “According to my people, they only saw a few cars speeding out of the underground
parking lot and chasing one another, but they couldn’t tell who were in those cars. However, Matthew,
Skyler, and others weren’t at the scene, so don’t worry.” The fact that they weren’t spotted was the best
news of all.
