Chapter 16
Her Billionaire Husband
Matthew grabbed her by the arm and yanked her over to a small booth within the room. All the
rooms on the third floor of the Twilight Club were VIP
rooms, and each room had smaller booths inside them for the “convenience” of its customers.
m! The door to the booth
mmed shut. Veronica was then mercilessly thrown onto the bed by Matthew. Her heart thumped. “Matt
hew, what are you doing? There‘s still thew. Try something funny and I’ll call the cops.”
She might be warning him, but Veronica still discreetly reached for her walkie–
talkie. Before she could speak into it, her hand suddenly felt empty–Matthew had snatched her walkie–
talkie away and hurled it to the ground. With a crash, it broke apart into bits and pieces.
Veronica became nervous at the chilly aura emanating from him. “W–W–What are you nning to do?”
The man was already pressing down on her just after she spoke. He preemptively grabbed her electric b
aton and tossed it aside. “Weren‘t you feeling lonely? I‘ll fulfill your wish.”
The next moment, she heard a ripping sound. Her thin, ck security guard uniform that
was made for the summer was already destroyed by his wanton ripping.
Veronica wanted to cry, but the tears wouldn‘te. This uniform... Why is the material so shoddy?
“H–
Hey, Matthew… Calm down, will you?” She pointed at her own face. “Look at me. I‘m so ugly; how are yo
u going to bring yourself to do this to me? If you want to blow some steam off, I‘ll call some of
the escorts over so you can get your fill. You can do whatever.”
Matthew looked at her tanned face. Her eyebrows were thick and
bushy, and freckles were dotted all over her skin. He couldn‘t help but frown. “You‘re ugly indeed.”
Personally, he had seen countless gorgeous
ladies in his life. Even if one was sent his way or willingly threw herself at him, he would remain
unfazed. However, at the memory of Veronica and Xavier making eyes at each other, all that came to his
mind was her sighs and moans that night on the
upper floors. The urge to cruelly “punish” her came to him.
“Yeah, that‘s right. I‘m so ugly that even looking at me will just turn your stomach. I‘ll

just get the club‘s topdies for you then.” Veronica grinned at him as she sucked up to Matthew. She trie
d to get up, but then he flung the ripped material of her ck uniform over her face.
“If I can‘t see it, then the contents of my stomach will stay down.”
Veronica was speechless. What kind of weird logic was that?
“Hey… Matthew, don‘t do this…”
Veronica was about to go mad. She struggled endlessly, but unfortunately, she was no match for Matthe
w‘s strength. Despite her skills inbat, she didn‘t have the strength to fight back.
There was another ripping sound then. Her body went cold. Even
as she struggled and protested, he still continued his assault on her.
Grief abruptly bubbled up inside her as she resisted. Hurt and upset, she wept as she yelled, “Matthew, y
ou jerk, what right do you have to treat me like this… Ah… I haven‘t dated anyone before… or married…
You b*stard, son of a b*tch… I hate your guts, Matthew…”
Veronica‘s struggles were fruitless. All she could do was yell and curse Matthew tearfully. Yet, her “scoldi
ng” just made his hormones sing. It made him enjoy this, and even fall into the pleasure. But this ting r
ush didn‘t make Matthew lose his head. He knew very well that Veronica was already two months along,
so he didn‘t dare to be too rough with her.
After the deed was done, he leaned over and whispered huskily into her ear, “Remember this: even a wo
man that I do not want is not allowed to be tainted by another man!”
He then released her hand.
The next moment, Veronica whipped the rags off her face
to re at him with tears in her eyes. She swung her hand through the air to p at him. “You‘re a f*ckin
g b*stard!”
What right did that despicable man have to do this to her?
If he only did that to herst time because he was drugged, then what about today?
Veronica was, after all, someone trained in taekwondo. That pnded hard on Matthew‘s face, and nat
urally, it hurt. His face swung to the side from the impact.
The messiness of the hair sticking to his forehead hid the chilliness nestled between his brows. Matthew‘
s inky ck eyes narrowed slightly then, his sharp gaze fixed upon Veronica. That moment, those icy ey
es of his looked as though he was contemting how to murder her.
Veronica had pped him on impulse earlier, so she was startled by this frigid appearance of his. All her
bravado vanished in an instant. She licked her lips. Perhaps it was due to nervousness, but her hands ke
pt clenching at the thin covers on the bed. “… I… Why are you looking at me that way? You‘re the one in
the wrong. Firstly, I‘m not one of the escort girls. Secondly, I‘m not your girlfriend. What right do you have
to touch me?!”
When Matthew heard Veronica‘s words, the chilliness on his stony face mostly dissipated. He might be a
ble to do as he pleased” in Bloomstead, but treating a girl like this…
For a second, a drop of regret bubbled up inside this cold–hearted
man. The next moment though, Matthew couldn‘t stop himself from grabbing Veronica‘s ripped
uniform and covering her face with it as he looked at her ugly visage. “So, judging from your words, what
kind ofpensation are you looking for?”
“Who needspensation from you!” Veronica yanked the rags off her face, furious and upset. Since he
thought her ugly, why did he
still do that to her? Even though he slept with her, he still found her repulsive.
How was she going to exin herself to anyone now?
Veronica wrapped the covers around herself. She just felt that Matthew was a jerk who wasn‘t picky abou
t his targets. Yet, she couldn‘t afford to provoke him, because…
“I can forget about today‘s incident, but I hope that I can get a discount on my father‘s medical fees at Sa
int Hospital. Is that possible?”
Saint Hospital was a top ss private hospital
in Bloomstead. It was one of the Kingses‘ properties. Veronica no longer had any ties to the Kings Family
. She should have gotten her parents out of Saint Hospital, but
she heard from her adoptive mother that there were specialists treating her adoptive father there, and the
results were visible. Thus, all Veronica
could do was grit her teeth, ept the expensive hospital fees, and continue to let her adoptive father re
ceive treatment at Saint Hospital.
At the same time, she also had her selfish motives––
since her adoptive parents were staying at Saint Hospital, the Larsons wouldn‘t dare
to do anything to her adoptive parents, owing to their fear of the Kingses.

That was how Veronica‘s thought process went anyway. And besides, Saint Hospital‘s eye–
