Chapter 657 Veronica’s Anguish
Then, Skyler came over to Matthew and tugged at his collar. “Here. See the scar on his collarbones? I
did that by accident when we were fighting once. The wounds from three shots he took on your
wedding day are still here as well!” “Caleb and I have seen them already. Veronica, you…”
Miguel sensed the anguish Veronica was feeling. His heart ached for her as he said, “I chose to tell you
because I trusted that you’d be able to accept reality.”
Veronica pushed Miguel away and stumbled over to Matthew. Her eyes were red and glistening as she
sniffed and choked out, “Matt, do… do you still recognize me?”
He looked up at her cluelessly. After flitting his eyes between her and that woman, Sadie, he shook his
head. “What does shaking your head mean? You don’t recognize me anymore?”
Veronica’s eyes widened as her tears cascaded down her cheeks. “Have you really forgotten
everything?”
At that moment, she did not know whether it was a blessing or a curse to have found Matthew again.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtNo matter how strong she was in the face of insurmountable pressure, right now, she could not face the
reality of the situation.
“Don’t despair, Roni. If something happens to you, it’ll only hurt those who care about you and bring joy
to your enemies.” Skyler looked at Veronica both exasperatedly and sympathetically as well. “I won’t let
those who hurt Matt get away with it. Once I get my hands on him, I’ll make his life a living hell. He’ll
have a fate worse than death.”
Skyler’s eyes glinted murderously as they swept over Thomas.
Thomas’ conscience weighed down on him heavily. He clenched his fists and straightened up. “You
don’t need to look at me like that, Young Master Skyler. If I ever see my brother again, I won’t show him
any mercy either!”
“Bullsh*t!”
Skyler was fuming. He pointed at Thomas and snarled, “That’s your brother you’re talking about! Are
you sure you’re willing to hurt him? Matt saved you and your brother’s lives, but this is how you repaid
him!”
“My brother’s the one who wronged Young Master Matthew, not me. Why are you getting mad at me?!”
Thomas gritted his teeth and glared at Skyler in fury. “As I said, even if he’s my brother, if I get my
hands on him, I’ll take revenge on behalf of Young Master Matthew. You…”
“That’s enough!”
Veronica shrieked through her tears. “Can’t you guys be quiet?!”
The reality was far too bleak for her to accept right away. She wanted some peace and quiet.
Caleb noticed her state and passed her a tissue. His lips parted as he tried to think of something to say
in comfort, but all the words he could think of seemed to be of no help at all.
In the end, he chose to remain silent.
Veronica accepted the tissue and wiped her tears. She took a deep breath and steeled herself before
approaching Matthew.
She stood in front of the man in the wheelchair and stared at him. The handsome man she knew was
gone, and the half-scarred face of the man in front of her right now spoke of the horrors he went

through.
Her hand quivered as she lifted it up to stroke his face, but it hovered in mid-air as she did not have the
courage to touch the scars.
“Are you scorning him?”
Suddenly, a woman’s voice rang out from behind.
Everyone turned to see who it was, and they all saw Sasha showing up out of nowhere.
She wore a long, V-necked dress paired with a gray suit jacket. Her heels clacked on the ground as
she came over.
However, when her eyes fell on Matthew, her footsteps stopped so abruptly that she nearly lost her
balance.
However, she did not look down at the stone pavement in front of her. Instead, she continued to step
closer to Matthew. Her eyes were wide with disbelief as her red lips parted with an audibly shocked
gasp.
“How… how could this be?”
