Her Billionaire Husband Chapter 341 Matthew Begins to Retaliate

Saying that, Veronica took the initiative to cover his lips with hers again, and her small hands even slipped through his shirt restlessly, her cool fingertips touching his skin. In an instant, it was as though her touch was an electric current running through his body, causing a chill to run down his spine. Influenced by her actions, he began to respond to her kiss, but he didn't do anything else until the end.

She was growing anxious. Her small hand gradually traveled down, but when she touched his belt, he grasped her hand and warned, "Roni, stop fooling around."

"Please, I want to," she whined on purpose.

"According to the contract, I'm not supposed to 'sleep with you' within three months."

Naturally, this meant that he wasn't allowed to have any kind of sexual relationship with her; he remembered it clearly. "If I break the contract and you refuse to marry me, what will I do?" Veronica jolted in surprise and stopped kissing him. Had he been so concerned about this matter this entire time?

"Uh... Why would I? That wouldn't happen." She shook her head with a sincere expression.

Even though her eyes were practically glittering with sincerity, Matthew could still sense that something was off. "Roni, tell me, did something happen?"

Although Matthew didn't know Veronica very well, judging from her behavior in the past two days, there was definitely something wrong, but he wasn't sure what the problem was.

"What's wrong with you? I want it, but you wouldn't give it to me. Hmph!" She pretended to be annoyed and turned her back to him.

Faced by her assertiveness, Matthew was suffering as if he was in a burning fire, but he did not dare to break the agreement. It took him so much effort to come to an agreement with her to abide by the contract and secretly get married three months later, but if they broke their agreement because of a momentary impulse, nobody would lend an ear to him for his loss.

"Silly girl, stop fussing. You have a weak body, so you need to rest well." He wrapped his arms around her waist and rested his chin on the top of her head, breathing in the scent of her hair as he comforted her "Take a rest for now. I'll call you when lunch is ready."

Veronica closed her eyes to ignore Matthew, while he only stayed by her side like that without saying anything else.

"I'm going to Castron tomorrow. Wanna come with me?"

At first, he planned to go to Castron a few days ago, but because of the photo incident, the trip was delayed and he didn't make it in the end. Now that things had settled down and he was done teaching his family a lesson, he naturally had to go to Castron to deal with those troublesome matters.

"Are you leaving tomorrow?" Veronica turned around to face him. "It's going to be Christmas in less than a month. If you leave now, you'll only be back after Christmas, right?"

"Yeah." Matthew nodded, his dark eyes filled with longing as he raised his hands to gently caress her soft cheeks. "I might not be able to visit your parents this year. When I come back, I'll pay them a visit immediately."

"It's all right." She smiled. "Take care of yourself when you're there and remember to call me."

"What are you talking about? If I don't call you, who else would I call?"

The two looked at each other and smiled. That day, Matthew accompanied Veronica for a walk around the villa and taught her to play golf. Then, he went to sleep with her in his arms later that night. However, because of their pent-up desires, Matthew could only get up and take a shower, and then went directly to the next room to rest in order not to cross the line. He felt helpless. It was his first time replaceing out that his self-control was this bad.

The next day, when Matthew had to rush to the airport for his early flight, Veronica didn't see him off and deliberately pretended to be asleep instead. For some reason, she didn't want to watch him leave. Perhaps she had suddenly become accustomed to his presence, and after they had gotten into a romantic relationship, it became difficult for her to leave him. Matthew entered her bedroom and kissed her, gently rubbing her lips with his thumb before he turned around and left.

As soon as the bedroom door slowly closed, Veronica opened her eyes and stared at the ceiling blankly, feeling extremely depressed. After lying in bed for another hour, she finally got up to wash up and saw that the maid had already prepared breakfast. Once she finished her meal in the dining hall, the driver drove her back to the city center.

As soon as she got out of the car and went home, she turned on her phone, but it had shut down as the battery was dead. She went to charge her phone before turning it on again, only to see many notifications for missed calls as well as text messages from many people.

One of the most important messages was the one from Xavier. 'I've fixed my phone and called you, but why won't the call get through?'

He fixed his phone? When she saw this message, Veronica suddenly turned pale. How powerful was his phone to be able to be repaired after being soaked in such hot water for so long? She had deleted the photos when she submerged the phone into the pool of water and also cleared his photo album while she was at it.

However, was it possible that Xavier could still use his phone to recover the photos after this? Veronica didn't dare to consider that possibility. She raised her hand to her forehead. She had been too confident to think that as long as she soaked his phone in cold and hot water for a long time, it would definitely break and those photos would also disappear. In the end, she was careless.

She got up and went to the living room where she took a bottle of red wine from the wine cabinet and began to drink. With a glass in her hand and a pillow in her arms, she leaned on the sofa and drank silently wondering what she should do with Xavier.

Ring, ring- Just then, her phone rang. At first, she thought that it was a call from Matthew, but after picking up her phone, she realized that it was Yvonne.

"Yvonne?" Taking a small sip of red wine, Veronica answered the phone.

"My goodness, my call finally got through. Where are you now? I went to your apartment to replace you yesterday, but you didn't answer no matter how many times I knocked on the door. Don't tell me you're so depressed that you went off to hit on other guys?" Yvonne ran her mouth and didn't think too much about anything. She could only be described as being so simple and naive that she seemed a little foolish. "What, can't I hit on other guys?" Veronica didn't refute Yvonne's words.

"Hmph, I just knew it. I told Conny that you must've gone out to play yesterday, but he said it's impossible."

"Why didn't Uncle Conrad believe you?" Conrad knew that Veronica was not at home but he didn't believe that she was going out to relax, so that must've meant that he doubted her relationship with Matthew. "He said that you're not that kind of person."

"Right? I guess Uncle Conrad doesn't have a good eye for personality."

"Shut up. Why do you sound like you're implying something about me?"

"It isn't about you unless you say it is," Veronica teased, feigning nonchalance.

"Right, I called you to ask you this. I heard from Conny that Matthew canceled all the business collaborations with Crawford Corporation. What happened?" Yvonne asked.

"When did this happen?"

"Yesterday."

Yesterday, Veronica was still lying unconscious at home, oblivious to everything that was happening in the outside world. If it hadn't been for Yvonne's call, she might not have known that Matthew had started to take revenge on Xavier until now.

"There's no use even if you tell me. I can't help Xavier anyway."

"Matthew is being too cruel. Xavier is such a nice person, so why does he target him all the time?" On the other end of the phone, Yvonne sighed fiercely.

Hearing that, Veronica didn't know if she should cry or laugh, but she felt that Yvonne was pitiful and miserable at the same time.
