Chapter 329 Matthew Is Totally Screwed
As expected, Elizabeth was angry. She cut Veronica short before the latter could finish her sentence,
saying, “Come back to the Kings Residence now.”
“Uh, okay,” Veronica immediately replied with a nod. After all, Elizabeth had summoned Matthew back
to the Kings Residence. If she went back at once, she could check on the situation and know what kind
of punishment he would receive.
After hanging up the phone, Veronica sighed to herself and sat on her bed in a daze.
Soon after that, Yvonne called her as well. She answered the phone mechanically, saying, “Hello?”
“Hello, my *ss! Where the hell have you been today? You were no longer at the Kings Residence when
I got up this morning. Be honest and tell me where you’ve been!” Yvonne questioned as soon as
Veronica answered the phone.
Veronica pursed her lips. Finding an excuse, she explained, “Well, uh… I suddenly got my period last
night, but there weren’t any tampons or sanitary pads at the Kings Residence, so I came back. I’d been
suffering from period pain since then, so I couldn’t sleep all night. It wasn’t until dawn that I finally fell
asleep. I forgot to charge my phone, so it turned itself off.” What a flawless explanation! She couldn’t
wait to call herself a bright spark.
“Sigh, that explains it. Anyway, hurry up and take a look at the trending topics on Twitter. Matthew is in
trouble,” Yvonne reminded. She sounded like she was taking pleasure in it, though.
Veronica didn’t bother to brush her off. She replied straightforwardly, “I saw it just now.”
Yvonne commented, “You saw it? Hmph! Now you know that, don’t you? Not only is Matthew a
spineless coward, but he’s also involved with a guy! H-He must be bisexual. How disgusting!” She
couldn’t help but shudder at the thought of Matthew being involved with a man and his promiscuous
lifestyle despite his seemingly cool and noble exterior. The thought made her flesh creep, giving her
goosebumps.
Veronica massaged the space between her eyebrows. She never thought that even Yvonne would
speak of Matthew in such a way. Not only that, but she couldn’t even refute her. She wanted to explain
what had actually happened, and the words were on the tip of her tongue… but she stopped herself in
the end. “What actually happened is still unclear, so perhaps it’s just a misunderstanding. But I can’t
chat with you anymore. Grandma just told me to go back to the Kings Residence, so I’m going back to
check on the situation.” She honestly had no idea how to continue the conversation with Yvonne, so
she had no choice but to find an excuse to hang up.
“Alright then, just go back and see with your own eyes how disgusting that shameless guy is. Roni,
you’re my bestie. Really, I’d advise you to stay as far away from him as possible.”
“Uh-huh. Thanks for the kind advice. Bye.”
Veronica hung up the phone as she didn’t want to continue talking to Yvonne about this. After
composing herself in her apartment for a while, she changed her clothes, fixed her hair, and left for the
Kings Residence.
She drove her car quietly without playing any music along the way. However, her mind kept wandering
as she drove, and the road was slippery because of the snow, so there were several times when she
nearly crashed into the curb. After tarrying for an hour, she finally reached the Kings Residence.
As soon as she arrived at the Kings Residence, she saw a car with a familiar license plate number
parked at the entrance. The car was Matthew’s. On the other side was another car, which belonged to
Conrad. Has Conrad come back as well? she wondered. Not only that, but just as she was standing
there staring at the license plate of Conrad’s car, three cars slowly drove up from behind.
A headache assailed her all of a sudden. There’s gonna be a large turnout today, she thought. She
stood aside and watched as three extraordinarily elegant middle-aged couples stepped out of those
cars. The three men were George, Matthew’s third uncle, Joseph, his fourth uncle, and Chris Espin, his
maternal uncle, respectively.
Before she could greet them, she saw two more cars driving up from behind. Luckily, the Kings
Residence’s entrance was large enough to park dozens of cars. Otherwise, the cars probably wouldn’t
have been able to park here.
Stepping out of the two cars were several people, whom Veronica had met while attending the family
dinner at the Kings Residence last time. These elders had some say in the family, and they all stormed
into the courtyard threateningly while ignoring Veronica’s presence. As she was acknowledged by
Elizabeth as the latter’s god-granddaughter, these people refused to acknowledge her presence, which
was why they ignored her upon seeing her. After all, why would they like her? She was but a young
lady from the countryside who would only get a share of the Kings Family’s wealth by joining the family.
Veronica followed them closely into the Kings Residence. This time, however, instead of going to the
drawing room, she followed them all the way to…
Reaching her destination, she looked up and immediately stopped in her tracks.
As it turned out, they arrived at the Kings Family’s memorial hall. Veronica had come here to pay her
respects to the Kings Family’s ancestors when Elizabeth previously acknowledged her as her god-
granddaughter, so she knew this place. However, never did she think that everyone in the Kings Family
would be alerted by the incident about Matthew. Not only that, but they had all come to the memorial
hall together. This is getting blown out of proportion, she thought.
Just as she stood frozen at the memorial hall’s entrance for a long time, a person came over to her
side. “Veronica?”
She looked to the side and saw that it was Conrad. “Uncle Conrad, you’re back as well?” she said,
greeting him with a forced smile.
Conrad was wearing a black woolen coat with a scarf hanging from his neck. Burying his hands in the
pockets of his trench coat, he stared at the memorial hall before shaking his head with a sigh. “Sigh.
Who would’ve thought that Matthew would actually do such a thing? The Kings Family has always
been old-fogeyish. Now that such a thing has happened, those in the family can’t stand it at all.” Every
word he said stabbed Veronica brutally in the heart like a knife, making her feel more and more uneasy.
Veronica asked in a roundabout way. “Is it that serious? Is it true that Matthew is in love with a guy? If
it’s true, what will happen?”
Conrad replied, “I’ve got no idea. Such a thing has never happened to the Kings Family before.
However, as the Kings Family’s current number-one heir, Matthew has to shoulder tremendous
responsibility for the family. If he’s really involved with a man… I’m afraid that the Kings Family won’t let
him stay in his position as Spinfluence Group’s CEO.”
Veronica’s eyes widened as she knitted her brows. “W-What do you mean? You mean he’ll be kicked
out of Spinfluence Group right away?” She had imagined many kinds of consequences, but it never
occurred to her that the matter would become so serious.
Conrad shrugged. “I’m not sure about that. Let’s go in and take a look first.” He stepped into the
memorial hall.
Veronica followed him into the memorial hall.
There were more than 20 men and women standing in the large memorial hall. Fortunately, the
memorial hall was over 100 square meters in size, or it would definitely have been crowded.
Those people stood on both sides, whereas Elizabeth stood in front of the altar—on which the
memorial tablets honoring the Kings Family’s deceased ancestors were placed—while glowering at
Matthew, who was standing at the memorial hall’s center. The scene looked no less intimidating and
oppressive than that of a trial by a grand jury.
“You’re simply fooling around and indecent; you’ve made us the laughing stock of the whole city!”
“Well, Matthew is good at doing business to a certain degree, but he’s of unsavory character.”
“How shameless of him to fool around with a guy in the fitting room of a shopping mall!”
“What a disgrace!”
