Chapter 182 Blessings From Old ssmates, Her Billionaire Husband
“It’s just a formality. You don’t have to worry about it.” “Matthew, I… wanted to ask you something. Did
you ever… love me?” Tiffany suddenly asked the question that she had been dying to know in her
heart. After she said those words, the other party fell into a few seconds of silence. “I have never loved
you.” He has never loved me! Silence followed his answer.
Although it was just five words, the feeling was more akin to someone stabbing a knife right into her
heart without notice and the pain caused Tiffany to forget how to breathe. The pain of having her heart
torn apart spread across every cell in her body. It was just as expected—he was never in love with her.
As to why he was willing to proceed with the marriage, it was all because Matthew wanted to keep the
promise of them tying the knot after ‘she had saved him’ and she bore ‘his child’.
He thought that he should be the one responsible for it. That was all. “Grandma said that rtionships
can be fostered. You can also take your time to slowly learn how to love me once we are married,
right?” At that moment, Tiffany looked as pathetic and pitiful as she could ever be. Even the love that
she desired looked soughable. Now that she was facing a man who did not have a shred of feelings
toward her, she even had to speak carefully.
Was this the kind of love she really wanted? Tiffany doubted herself. His answer came after a moment
of silence. “I won’t.” When she had asked the question, all Matthew could see was the face of Veronica,
whom he badly wanted. Even if they looked almost identical, there were still so many subtle differences
between them, such as their personality, eyebrows, voices, body… Apart from the elegance that
Tiffany was born with, she wascking in every aspect whenpared to Veronica. However, it was
Veronica’s brash and honest personality that he particrly fancied. After Matthew’s words, the other
side of the call went dead silent. “From the beginning, I have said that you are a suitable candidate to
marry into the Kings Family.
That is all,” the emotionless man added. If what Matthew had uttered earlier was like an icicle that
pierced her heart, then this sentence was akin to her posthumous torture. It was pain beyond belief.
With a face that was full of tears, Tiffanycked the strength to even speak. She closed her eyes and
hung up in despair. What a sentence, ‘From the beginning, I have said that you are a suitable
candidate to marry into the Kings Family.
That is all‘. At that time, she did not know whether to feel sad or fortunate about the whole thing. It was
not until a long while that she rposed herself and left the bitterness behind. It wasn’t that she had
goodposure; it was just that she recently had too much to bear. However, no matter what, the
position of the Young Mistress of the Kingses was hers for sure. On the other side, a call from Thomas
came right after Matthew ced his phone down.
“Boss, it’s almost time for you to get changed.” “There’s no hurry.” After hanging up, Matthew got up
and walked to the bedroom. The sight of Veronica waking up greeted him as he opened the door.
When he saw that she was still asleep, the man thought that she looked adorable before his cold face
was reced by a gentle smile. “Morning.” Upon seeing Matthew, Veronica was a bit shocked and felt
ufortable since his words fromst night echoed in her mind.
However, fearing that her reaction would be obvious, she could only pretend to walk in a rxed
manner to him with open arms. “Morning. As the godbrother and the groom of today’s wedding,
shouldn’t you have prepared a big red packet for me?” She would never miss any opportunity to ‘earn
money’. Her words stunned Matthew as he replied, “I haven’t prepared it yet. However, your share will
definitely be included.”
“Then, I shall thank you in advance.” Lifting her wrist, Veronica looked at the time on her watch. “It’s
getting ratherte, so I should be heading to the office now. I wish you… a happy wedding.” After that,
she walked past him and left in a rush. It was already 7:00AM after she headed to the office and
finished freshening up. Since all of the employees had clocked in at 7:00AM sharp, everything was
good to go.
At around eight o’clock or so, Veronica was already patrolling the wedding venue when she suddenly
received a call. Whipping out her phone, she saw that it was Melissa calling. “Is there anything you
want by calling so early in the morning?” “Veronica Murphy, you are such a heartless person.
How could you utter such cold words when I’ve been missing you so much?” Melissa snorted. “Why do
you care whether I’ve hurt you when you have already said that I’m heartless?” “You…” Angered to the
point of speechlessness, Melissa then continued, “You know what? Never mind.
I don’t want to continue with this pointless argument. Oh, right, today is my idol’s wedding. Are you
attending it?” Even through the phone, Veronica could feel how rxed and easygoing Melissa
sounded. “Don’t you love Matthew very much? Why are you so happy now that he’s about to get
married?”
This did not seem to make any sense at all. “I’m definitely sad to see him getting married, but this will
not affect me attending the ceremony. When will you being over? There will be something truly
spectacr to witnesster, so make sure that you do not miss it.” “What… do you mean by that?”
Veronica, who had a great sixth sense for such things, had already felt that something was about to
ur.
“The wedding of the century. A woman’s dreaming true. You really shouldn’t miss it. Anyway, I’ll
see you thereter. Bye.” After saying that, Melissa hung up. At the same time, over at Dragon’s Creek
Vi, all of Tiffany’s close friends and associates had arrived to attend her wedding.
Caitlyn West, an old ssmate, was the first toe into the room to give Tiffany her wishes.
“Congrattions, Tiffany. You finally got your wish of marrying Young Master Matthew. You have really
made everyone envious now.” Tiffany’s best friend, Reese Jorge, walked to the dressing table before
giving Tiffany a big hug. “My dear friend, I hope you’ll have a happy wedding.” Afterward, all of her
friends who were present gave their best wishes to her.
Thest person who appeared in front of her was the precious daughter of the Dame Family, which
was one of four great families in Bloomstead, Ruka Dame. On top of being treated like she was the real
princess of the Dame Family in Bloomstead, she was also madly in love with Matthew. However, she
did not anticipate that Tiffany would be a step ahead of her to tie the knot with him. Since Ruka was a
natural beauty, she was dressed to kill.

Thanks to the further assistance from her makeup, she did not lose out to Tiffany in terms of beauty.
Dressed in the exquisite attire by the French designer, Elise M, she was able to radiate a unique
aura. Now that she had appeared in such a shy way, her presence overshadowed Tiffany; it was as if
she was hinting that she was here to crash the party. “You really do have good luck, Tiffany.” As former
ssmates, Ruka did not want to attend Tiffany’s wedding, but was afraid of the gossip that might
ensue if she did not.
Tiffany, who was already agitated by Matthew’s words earlier that morning, did not despair any further.
Instead, she picked herself up and readjusted her emotions as she sat in front of the dressing table to
wait for his wedding car to pick her up. Compared to the grievance she had felt either, the appearance
of all her ssmates and their subsequent ttery made her feel more vain and ted.
This was especially so when she saw Ruka, who always acted so high and mighty, turning green with
envy from the fact that she would soon marry Matthew. It made Tiffany feel like she had already won
the game of life. “Thank you for your wishes and for attending my wedding.
Words cannot describe how happy I am right now.” Shooting a nce at Ruka, Tiffany knew that she
was nning to crash the party today by dressing up so extravagantly. However, she was not angry
and merely gave a soft smile. “Ruka, you really do look beautiful today.”
Yes, you‘re beautiful, but you‘re not the one whom Matthew chose. Then, she added, “Oh, yeah, there’ll
be a lot of handsome men with promising futures present today. You should make full use of this
chance to look for your Prince Charming, Ruka.”
