Her Billionaire Husband novel Chapter 28

Chapter 28

“Matthew Kings”

As Veronica was already feeling uncomfortable, she became even more dizzy after he dragged and turned her around like that.

After Matthew locked the door, he stared at her with a grim expression. “I’ve warned you before to stay away from Xavier. What, now? My words are useless against you?”

Feeling better after rubbing her chest, Veronica lifted her gaze at him and smirked. “Hmph, why should I listen to you, Matthew Kings? Are you my parent who brought me up or my legal husband? You said that I’m not qualified, but what about you?”

Veronica, who had always been humble and weak, poked a slender finger on his chest, the fury in her eyes as clear as day. “It’s true that you’re great because you’re rich and influential, but that doesn’t mean that you can control my life! After you slept with me and asked me to give birth to your child, you turned around and immediately got yourself engaged to Tiffany Larson. Are you planning to let my child call her mom right after it’s born?”

The more she spoke, the more worked up she became, and her eyes turned scarlet as she shoved Matthew away angrily. “Do you even f*cking take me as a human being? This is my child! It’s mine!”

Finally, despite how stubborn she was, the tears which were welled-up in her eyes flowed down, and she burst into tears as she trembled.

Matthew staggered a few steps backward before he could stabilize himself from her shoving. When he looked at her again, she was crying uncontrollably, but he had no rebuttals to her words.

“Listen carefully, Matthew Kings! Even if I die, I won’t give birth to this child!” she said, spitting each word out loudly, firmly, and clearly while pointing a finger at him.

This was the first time he had seen her so furious ever since he met her. She didn’t mention money nor any conditions; all she told him was, it would be impossible for her child to call someone else mommy.

“Do you think I’ll give you the chance to regret it after you gave me your word?” Arrogantly, he narrowed his eyes at her. “Don’t think that you have the right to shout at me just because you hooked up with Xavier!” Holding her chin with his hand, he lifted it slightly. “Remember, whether it’s you or Xavier, none of you are fit to act like

this with me.”

Their eyes locked for a few seconds, and he added, “You wanted me to investigate your parents’ accident, and I already did. The file is in my office, and I’ll pass it to you any time you move into the Kings Residence. And that also includes your father’s brain surgery.”

In the end, Veronica shut her eyes helplessly, hiding the despair and sadness in them. “Is this fair to me?” she choked.

Releasing her, the man then stroked the hair on her forehead as though he was petting a small animal, and a faint smile appeared on his face. “There has never been any fairness in the adult world. You can only speak about fairness when you have enough power.”

Then, he patted her face as if to tell her the truth about the society, and she broke into a smile on her tear-streaked face; it was a sad, helpless and hopeless smile.

“Yeah, in the adult world, there is no fairness to speak about. Only power speaks, and you’re nothing without it,” she murmured with her head hanging.

“Good. Looks like you know it now.” With one arm, he held her waist and pulled her toward himself. “You’re pregnant with my child now, so even if you love Xavier, you have to bear with it.”

Finally, he understood why she wasn’t interested in him-it was because she loved a Casanova like Xavier.

“You’re so bossy, Young Master Matthew.” Tears streamed down Veronica’s sad face. “Not only are you forcing me to give birth to your child, you even took away my right to fall in love with someone else.”

She was not an emotional person to begin with, but too many things happened today, and it was getting too much to bear.
