Her Biliionaire Husband (Veronica and Matthew)
Chapter 1171 Veronica Murphy, the Guest of Honor

Back at the hidden clan, Liam arrived at the foot of the hill and called Veronica, waking her up from Matthew's embrace.

She picked up her phone and recognized Liam's call from the string of numbers that were shown on the screen.

Only Liam knew her phone number because she had just changed it yesterday.

She looked at Matthew before pressing the speakerphone button to answer the call. "Hello?"

"Miss Murphy, where are you?" The person on the other line asked.

Veronica looked around and realized she didn't know where she was, so she explained, "I had something come up unexpectedly. Send me your location, and I'll come replace you later."

Liam had come specifically to get Veronica, but he had left empty-handed. Although he was upset, instead of expressing it, he just laughed awkwardly. "That works too. I'll text you my location."

"Sure. I'll see you later."

After hanging up the phone, Veronica leaned back in Matthew's arms, putting her arms around his waist and squinting her eyes. "They've all arrived. Is there going to be a big change in the hidden clan?"

"Different situations call for different action. There's no need to worry."

He reassured her, but Veronica couldn't help but feel uneasy despite his words.

Afterward, the two of them straighten up their attire and then set off, following the address Liam had given them.

An hour and a half later, they reached their destination. It was already 6.30PM., and the sun was setting in the west.

Liam had chosen a bonfire feast on a lawn outside the hidden clan palace.

Mountains and water surrounded the lawn's north side, creating a lovely scene. It was dusk, and the glowing blaze of the bonfire enhanced the beauty of the flickering fireflies as they danced across the green grass.

When they entered, they were stopped by soldiers outside. They gained access after Veronica Murphy revealed who she was.

As soon as they entered, Veronica Murphy saw Liam Ledger coming towards her. "Hahaha! Miss Murphy, you've arrived at last. I was prepared to personally pick you up if you didn't show up."

As Liam greeted Veronica, he cast a scornful glance back at the unsophisticated bodyguard standing behind her.

"I apologize for being late," Veronica Murphy replied politely while giving a small nod.

"Don't worry about it. Come, let's go over there."

With a bright smile, Liam led Veronica toward the bonfire and announced, "Everyone, look who I've brought as the guest of honor."

Several people sitting by the bonfire turned their heads and were surprised to see Veronica, each with their own thoughts.

"Roni?"

Xavier Crawford showed the most enthusiasm.

He stood up as soon as he saw Veronica and approached her in a worried manner. "I was surprised to learn that you were the honored guest Prince Liam mentioned. It's been a while. How have you been lately?"

At this moment, Xavier paid no attention to Antheena and didn't even notice her jealous and hateful gaze on Veronica.

"Oh, it's my sister. What a coincidence to meet you here." Tiffany flashed a cryptic smile.

Anthony got to his feet, crossed his arms, and walked towards Veronica with a lofty stride. "We meet again."

And without saying a word, Hendrey Johnson stood up and stared at her, but his eyes spoke a thousand words.

Troy Ritter was standing next to Anthony, and he had a very icy look on his face. He didn't speak while he stood motionless nearby, but his eyes were fixed intently on the man standing behind Veronica.

"That's not cool, Liam. When did you make plans with my sister? Why didn't you inform me?" Tiffany bit her red lips and lightly bumped into Liam's body, expressing her displeasure.

Clearly, Tiffany and Veronica looked identical, but Liam thought Tiffany was too frivolous, so he had no desire to pursue her.
