Chapter 644


    Chapter 644 Matthew’s Back


    Veronica got out of the car, and Yvette held an umbre over her. She handed Veronica a red scarf.


    “It’s cold. You should wear this.”


    Yvette was a slender woman. She wore a long ck coat that entuated her waist. Her hair was


    cropped short, which brought out her features even more. She was an aloof woman, to begin with, and


    with her wearing gold-rimmed sses, she looked more like a handsome woman than a beautifuldy.


    “Thank you.” Veronica looked at her in surprise and took the scarf from her before wearing it around


    her own neck.


    This is the property of N?-velDrama.Org.


    “It’s nothing. Thomas told me to do this,” Yvette said.


    Veronica merely acknowledged it without saying anything further. She took the umbre from Yvette


    and darted into the Kings Residence. She went through the yard and passed over the man-made


    bridge until she was finally in the backyard.


    Even before she reached the ce, she could hear Elizabeth yelling, “Don’t just stand there. I want to


    see Matthew, and you’re calling him here right now.”


    Elizabeth is at it again. Veronica froze in her tracks and looked at the snow beneath her. It felt like her


    heart was getting even colder. She closed the umbre and handed it to Yvette, and then she clenched


    her fists before heading toward Elizabeth. “Grandma?” She reced her sadness with a sweet smile.


    Elizabeth was pointing her crutch at the servants as she yelled at them. Veronica exchanged a look


    with Yura, and thetter shook her head. There was visible sorrow in her eyes.


    “What are you doing, Grandma? I told you Matthew’s overseas. You don’t have to worry about him.”


    Veronica went up to Elizabeth and stopped before her, holding her hand as she said yfully, “Don’t


    you miss me at all?”


    “Who are you?” Elizabeth kept her dementia under control with medications, but Matthew’s


    disappearance had hit her greatly, and it exacerbated her condition. She couldn’t even recognize


    Veronica when she was having an episode.


    “I’m Matthew’s wife, your granddaughter-inw.” She forced a smile and put Elizabeth’s hand on her


    belly. “And this is your great-grandchild. Look, it’s this big now.”


    “Is that so?” The scowl on Elizabeth’s face was then reced by a grin. “So, Matthew has a son now.”


    Phew, she’s feeling better. Yura waved at the servants, telling them to leave.


    However, Elizabeth suddenly frowned again. “I want to see Matthew. Call him and tell him he needs to


    come back right now.”


    In the past, she had been nothing but the epitome of elegance, so the current sight of her suffering


    from dementia broke Veronica’s heart.


    “Grandma, Matt is—”


    Someone came in and interrupted, “What is it?”


    “Matthew? Is that you? You’re finally back, you little brat. I’ve missed you!” Elizabeth flung Veronica’s


    hand away and approached the neer. She held his hand and looked at him closely. “You work


    and work and work, but you nevere to see me. And look at you. It’s only been a while, and you


    have lost some weight. And you look older too.”


    Veronica was infuriated when she saw who it was. She then looked at Yura and kept her mouth shut.


    Conrad sneered and looked at Veronica smugly as he held Elizabeth’s hand. “Well, I’m here now. Did


    you throw a tantrum when I wasn’t around?”


    He resembled Matthew a little. As such, Elizabeth’s yearning for Matthew had made her mistake of


    Conrad as her beloved grandson. She was as happy as ark just from seeing Conrad, thinking he was


    Matthew.
