Her Biliionaire Husband (Veronica and Matthew)
Chapter 1041 Sometimes, Plans Go Astray

Shirley tentatively followed Skyler's dance steps and looked up at the handsome man in front of her. She gradually shook her head and then insecurely lowered her head a little.

Although she was silent, her expression said it all.

Of course, Skyler understood how Shirley felt.

Therefore, he leaned closer to her ear and uttered under his breath, "You can wear a mask if we are outside, but these people at home are all our family and friends. Unlike outsiders, they are genuinely willing to accept you and like you for who you are. So, you don't have to feel stressed."

"I know."

Sure enough, Shirley understood everything Skyler said was true. However, that didn't mean she could convince herself to let her hair down, as it were.

"Ky, can you give me a little time?"

Ever since she became disfigured, she had been trying to adjust her mentality, hoping she could step out of her trauma.

Alas, every time others merely took another glance at her, it would trigger her low esteem, and she would feel as though they were mocking her.

Deep down, she was well aware that most of the time, those were just casual stares, and they weren't mocking at all.

Yet, she just couldn't turn a blind eye to her negative assumptions.

"Okay.I won't force you."

Skyler tilted his head and planted a kiss on her cheek.

"Don't be scared.I will be around at all times, so don't worry."

A great sense of warmth flowed through Shirley's heart as she listened to Skyler's comforting words. She felt she was immersed in a sea of happiness and that everything was simply so wonderful to her.I would have been happier if! wasn't disfigured.

Veronica, who was dancing next to the couple, couldn't help but put on a faint smile as she watched the two being lovey-dovey.

"Matt, I feel like I'm living in peace right now.I have nothing else to ask for if I can live a simple and happy life every day in the future."

Those days spent in the hidden clan had put endless pressure on Veronica, and that suffocating sense of oppression nearly crushed her countless times to the point of despair.

Every time she found herself teetering on the edge of despair, Matthew would show up and pull her out, saving her.

"We will."

Matthew's handsome face was tinged with a gentle smile.

"We certainly will."

As a man, I had witnessed everything Veronica had gone through in these past years.

I know her desire for happiness.

Hence, I naturally hope to satisfy her as much as I can.

But sometimes, plans go astray.

I never consider myself God, so I can't map out plans for all things.

Also, I am aware that the future holds even more uncertainties.

"Let's return to the Kings Residence to visit Grandma tomorrow," Veronica suggested.

"You asked them to pick up Grandma today, but she suddenly had another episode of Alzheimer's and couldn't remember anyone. That was why she didn't attend the party." Veronica was slightly heartbroken at the mention of Elizabeth.

"Grandma is such a loving and kind woman. Now that she has lost her memory, she definitely feels awful when she comes to."

"I guess...But look on the bright side-she would also forget about plenty of worries when having another episode of Alzheimer's, right?"

Outwardly, Matthew tried to make Veronica feel better by saying those words.

But inwardly, he was actually distressed about Elizabeth's condition.

Nonetheless, he didn't want to show it, for he was afraid Veronica would be worried along with him.

"Tomorrow, we'll go to the Kings Residence to visit Grandma," she said.

"Okay,"

Matthew readily agreed.

The atmosphere in Pinewoods Villa this evening was exceptionally boisterous and romantic, leaving an unforgettable memory for everyone present. Later that night, Troy and Yvette took Eleanor back to Axies Villa.

Others also went home, while Skyler and Shirley stayed behind in Pinewoods Villa to accompany Veronica.

At the same time, the news that Matthew was still alive immediately went viral.

'Matthew, who died three months ago, is actually alive!', 'Matthew is still alive, so who was the one that got buried back then?', 'Matthew is not dead.
