    Chapter 1117 The Shameless Actress


    For a split second, Veronica secretly felt sorry for Matthew. But what could she do?


    Unfortunately, she couldn''t exin it on Matthew''s behalf yet.


    "That''s very unlikely. We just have different values. And it was I who asked for a divorce."


    The only thing Veronica could do was avoid using Matthew and clear up the misunderstanding.


    "Really?" Half-believing what Veronica had said, Ruka sipped her tea.


    "Of course." Veronica nodded firmly.


    "Think about it, I grew up in the countryside, so our habits are very different. At first, I didn''t realize it,


    but we really are notpatible."


    "There are exnations for why two people cannot get along. But different values and lifestyle


    differences are uneptable reasons," said Ivana, who was far from convinced.


    The already-married Monica added, "I think I can understand. Like my ex-husband, we didn''t discover


    any ipatibilities before marriage, but afterward, many issues cropped up that really brought our


    underlying problems to light."


    As she spoke, her gaze moved from Veronica to behind her, her face surprised.


    The other three noticed Monica''s odd expression and turned to look behind them.


    It would have been better if they hadn''t looked, but when they did, they were astounded.


    A handsome man and a stunning woman emerged from the lift, exuding an extraordinary aura, as


    though they were a perfect match.


    "Isn''t that Mr. Kings?" Ivana''s eyes were wide with shock, and she was speechless.


    Ruka''s face darkened as she nced at Veronica. "Is this what you meant by not having aligned


    values?"


    Then Monica added, "I-I take back what I said earlier."


    Contentt bel0ngs to N0ve/lDra/ma.O(r)g!


    The three friends of Veronica were enraged.


    Veronica and Matthew suddenly locked eyes, startled by the encounter.


    After calming down, Veronica took a deep breath and realized the situation had beplicated.


    Why did he have to bring a woman out now instead of any other time?


    Eviette noticed them as the four looked over.


    She turned her head to Matthew and asked, "Is that your ex-wife, Matt?"


    Matthew remained indifferent and replied, "Yes."


    "Do you want to go over and say hello?"


    "No, there''s no need for that."


    He wanted to go over and say hello, but the sharp gazes of Monica, Ivana, and Ruka made him think


    otherwise. It was better to stay away from the conflict.


    Not everything bends to human will, Matthew thought.


    All of a sudden, Ruka stood up and eximed, "What a coincidence! This must be fate because I didn''t


    expect to meet Mr. Kings here."


    Ruka, as the daughter of the Dame Group, did not need to be humble in front of Matthew, so it was


    only natural for her to speak superiorly. "Aren''t you going to introduce the person next to you?"


    Immediately, Ivana sarcastically added, "You just divorced your ex-wife, and you''re already dating


    someone new? Oh, Mr. Kings, I sure hope there was no infidelity."


    Monica looked at Veronica and chose to remain silent, while Veronica had her hand on her forehead,


    unsure of what to do.


    Since it was still early, there weren''t many people on the VIP floor of One Piece Restaurant, so


    naturally no one noticed themotion.


    With nothing to hide, Matthew approached the four women with Eviette.


    He cast a cold look over Ruka''s face before turning to look at Veronica who was seated in the booth


    and telling Ruka, "She''s my friend. I don''t think there''s a need to introduce her to you."


    Ruka sneered, crossed her arms, and looked up and down at Eviette before remembering who she


    was.


    "Isn''t she the former top actress who disappeared from the screen a few years ago? Are you seeing


    this insignificant actress, Mr. Kings?"
