Her Biliionaire Husband (Veronica and Matthew)
Chapter 1057

"Yeah." Melinda sighed and shook her head in dismay. "This lady is prone to scarring, so her looks are destroyed. Oh, dear."

"You mean that her face can never recover again?" Sofia asked with a glimmer of hope in her eyes.

"Yes." Melinda checked the information in her hands and pointed at Shirley's scar on the picture. "The injury on the face is severe. Coupled with her skin's inclination to scarring, I'm certain that she won't be able to recover." Then, she suddenly raised her head at Sofia. "Why are you so interested in her condition?"

"Huh? Uh, n-no. I'm just asking because I know her." Sofia put on a plastic smile and changed the topic. Nonetheless, a triumphant smirk spread across her face the instant she had her back facing Melinda. Just then, an employee from the beauty salon opened the door and said, "Miss Levine, Miss Tijana is asking for you."

"Okay." Melinda rose to her feet and said to Sofia. "I'm going to check out what Tijana needs. Take your time here, Sofia."

"Go ahead. I'll take a rest here in the meantime." Sofia leaned into the couch and made it seem as though she was browsing through her phone when in actuality, she had her eyes on Melinda's retreating figure. Nevertheless, she kept up the pretense until Melinda finally left the office and closed the door behind her.

When she heard that the sound of heels clicking on the floor was growing fainter, she slowly stood up and went to the desk. Then, she opened the folder and checked Shirley's information. Her phone made clicking sounds as she snapped a few pictures of Shirley's photos, capturing proof of her disfigurement.

On this day, Veronica's adoptive parents finally arrived at Pinewoods Villa in Bloomstead. After Thomas parked the car, he went to the back and opened the car door. "Mr. and Mrs. Murphy, we're here," he said politely to Tony and Daniella.

The couple climbed out and checked out the huge villa. "This is so luxurious," Tony couldn't help but gush.

"Exactly. It looks like a palace." Daniella nodded in agreement but looked a little downcast. "Say, Matthew is so wealthy. Do you think Veronica is good enough for him?"

The edges of Thomas' lips twitched at that remark. How is she not good enough? Your daughter is the master of the hidden clan. Instead of becoming the clan's leader, she chose to be with the Boss. She's more than good enough for him. There was even a moment when he thought that Matthew was the one who wasn't worthy of her.

"Mr. and Mrs. Murphy, please don't say that. Mrs. Kings is hard-working and has been running her own company. Furthermore, she's working hard to run her own business and is a very motivated person. Of course, she's good enough for Boss," he said confidently.

Right then, Veronica and Matthew came out of the living room. "Dad? Mom?" She trotted down the stairs, dashed straight for them with open arms, and hugged them. "Oh, how I miss you guys!"

She did miss them terribly. After the visit to the clan this time, she had been through life-and-death experiences with too many people and very nearly lost the opportunity to walk out there alive. While she was on the verge of life and death, the ones she missed the most were none other than her parents.

Now that she could finally lay her eyes on them, she couldn't stop herself from giving them a big hug, and the moment she did so, her restless heart finally calmed down.

"Goodness, you're a grown woman. How could you still act like a child?" Daniella was all smiles as she patted Veronica on the back. Then, she took a glance at Matthew next to her and commented lightly, "You're making a clown out of yourself in front of Matthew."

Matthew was dressed casually as he stood beside them with a calm smile. "It's alright. She just missed you guys a lot."

Now that he had been through all those life-and-death experiences with her, he fully understood what she had gone through. Thus, he knew that her parents held an important place in her heart that could never be replaced. In fact, he was even a little envious of such a relationship.

Tony chuckled heartily. "There, there. You're a big girl now." Veronica gently pushed aside and asked, "Where's Ada and Alan? I would like to see them."

At the mention of the children, Daniella immediately shoved Veronica aside as well. "I want to see them, too."
