Chapter 76
Veronica took out a black-colored card which had a major bank’s name embossed in gold. In fact, it
looked quite classy.
As soon as the card was taken out, everyone was momentarily stunned and their eyes widened. There
was no mistaking the shock on everyone’s faces, especially Tiffany. As soon as she saw the card, she
couldn’t contain her anger and her delicate features were distorted with jealousy.
“This… Is this… the Centurion Card?”
Just then, Floch caught his breath in a deep gasp and he instinctively turned to glance at Rachel. At
that moment, he was stunned beyond words.
“Ha! Now that’s about right.”
Elizabeth shot a look at Matthew with a happy smile on her face. “You’re Veronica’s brother, so that’s
the least you can do.”
“But… Old Mrs. Kings, this is the Centurion Card and it’s got unlimited credit. Matthew gave this to
Veronica so casually, but what if she spends unnecessarily? After all, this card can be used to
purchase anything and it can even be used to buy a plane!”
After the direct snub, Rachel intentionally came up with an excuse to maintain her image and she
purposely analyzed Matthew’s “kind move.” From her words, she intended to put across to everyone
that Veronica had, in fact, originated from the countryside so it was very likely that she would splurge
frivolously with so much money on her hands.
“Yeah, Mom’s right! Grandma, Veronica just came back to Bloomstead from the countryside, so she
hasn’t been exposed to the urban lifestyle. If she’s given too much money all at once, it might not be a
good thing for her.” Just then, Tiffany echoed Rachel’s words.
After listening to everyone’s words, Veronica finally understood that the black card in her hand was in
fact the renowned Centurion Card that could be used to buy anything, even a plane.
Initially, she had thought that this was a VVIP card because of Matthew’s exalted status. It was no
wonder that the salesperson had looked at her strangely when she went shopping, and they had also
been especially accommodating.
big deal. I only have one god-granddaughter so she deserves all the best things on earth.”
Meanwhile, Elizabeth was extremely happy and she turned to Veronica. “Next time you encounter any
problems at all, come to me or your brother. You’ve got us supporting you, and I definitely won’t allow
anyone to bully you! As for this money, feel free to use it however you’d like. You don’t have to be shy
to use your brother’s money. He’s very rich.”
For some inexplicable reason, Veronica could sense that Elizabeth was very happy. There was a sharp
glint in the latter’s clouded eyes as she was lost in thought.
Ultimately, Veronica couldn’t quite comprehend the situation but she was quite sure that Elizabeth’s
words were intentionally directed at the Larsons, so Veronica was quite gleeful about it.
At that point, there was nothing else that could be done, so the Larsons’ moods were fouler than ever.
Meanwhile, Floch awkwardly put away the card in his hand and he no longer dared to mention a word
about inviting Veronica back home.
In the end, they sat down for dinner together. It was then that Floch truly grasped the fact that Elizabeth
was indeed very fond of Veronica, so he couldn’t help himself and suggested for the girl to return home
with them. However, his suggestion was met with Elizabeth’s objection. As such, none of them dared to
bring up that topic again.
After dinner, Floch and Rachel left with Tiffany in tow, while Matthew volunteered to send Veronica
home.
Just then, Veronica clung tightly to Elizabeth and whispered her thanks into the latter’s ears. “Grandma,
thank you very much for everything today.”
“It’s no big deal. I’m your grandma so it’s natural for me to dote on you. I’m happy enough as long as
you come back regularly to visit me.” Elizabeth was truly very fond of Veronica. This was even more so
after Veronica saved Elizabeth’s life. That made Elizabeth fonder of Veronica than ever.
Naturally, Elizabeth’s fondness was partly mixed with gratitude toward Veronica for saving her life,
coupled with other reasons too.
“Alright. Grandma, do get some rest. We’ll be on our way now.” Veronica waved at Elizabeth and
turned around to leave.
Just then, the Larsons bade farewell one after the other to Elizabeth and walked out of the Kings
Residence alongside Veronica and Matthew.
There was a short distance from the backyard of the house to the front and as they walked on the
paved stone path, Floch mentioned to Matthew, “Matthew, you’re already engaged to Tiffany, yet the
two of you are still living apart. There’s going to be speculation if word gets out.”
“Yeah, you guys are already engaged so you should be staying together.” Rachel also took the
opportunity to chime in.
Although Tiffany and Matthew were engaged to be married, it was quite frustrating for the Larsons
because the duo were not staying together.
However, they were no longer as wary of Veronica as before, because she was no longer a threat. Now
that she was Elizabeth’s god-granddaughter, she was no longer eligible to marry Matthew.
Just then, Tiffany lowered her head and remained silent with her lips pursed. At that moment, she was
actually quite expectant and secretly joyful.
Suddenly, Matthew mentioned, “I’m just obeying the Kingses’ family rule.”
His words managed to render everyone speechless. After quite some time, Rachel voiced out again,
“Then when do you two plan to get married?”
“We can discuss this at a later stage.” His abrupt words were like an icy bucket of water thrown at
Tiffany, and she felt a chill run down her spine at that point.
Floch couldn’t contain himself and wanted to pursue the topic further, but Rachel signaled for him to
stop. It wasn’t the best time to ask about this right now.
Just then, the group made their way to the entrance and left after going into their respective cars.
After Floch and Rachel got into the car, Tiffany remained outside and looked on longingly at Matthew.
Subsequently, she walked toward him and hugged him. Then, she lifted her head to look at him with
dewy eyes. “Matthew, I really want to stay together with you.”
Faced with Tiffany’s sudden advancement, Matthew could only think of the cloying scent of perfume
that hit his nostrils. Though she used a designer perfume, it was still too strong for his liking and he
frowned slightly in response.
Instinctively, he turned to look at Veronica. Coincidentally, as he glanced over, she turned to look at him
too, so their eyes met each others. Veronica suddenly felt a tight feeling in her chest, but she merely
lifted an eyebrow before turning around to
enter the car. She didn’t want to stand there as the loving couple publicly displayed their affections for
each other.
“Have you forgotten my words?”
Matthew’s body was stiff as he continued to keep a hand in the pocket of his trousers. The other
remained by the side of his body. His cold words cut through Tiffany like a razor blade and she felt a
piercing pain in her heart.
Just then, the tears instantly welled up in her eyes and she looked at him with an aggrieved expression.
When Matthew saw her pitiful look, coupled with a face that closely resembled Veronica’s, he couldn’t
help lifting his hands with slightly trembling fingers before patting her lightly on the back. “Go home now
and get some rest.”
His sudden action of patting her on the bacķ as well as the torn expression that flashed across his gaze
earlier made Tiffany feel that he was deeply in love with her. Hence, she became as happy as a child
who was awarded candy.
“Alright, Matthew. Good night.” After saying that, she went onto her toes and gently pressed a kiss to
his cheek.
At that instance, Matthew instinctively turned his face slightly but he didn’t end up managing to dodge
her kiss. However, he shifted his eyes to the side and happened to see Veronica’s dark expression
from the rearview mirror of the car. She appeared to be staring into the rearview mirror and looking
directly at them.
Just then, Tiffany let go of Matthew and she entered the Larsons’ car in happy spirits. Subsequently,
the trio drove off.
Matthew watched as they drove off before he took out a limited edition handkerchief from the inner
pocket of his suit. Then, he wiped off the area on his face that Tiffany had planted a kiss on before
throwing the handkerchief into the bin with a disgusted look on his face.
