Chapter 339 Realizing the Truth
He doesn’t have Matthew as a friend? Veronica thought. She then tried looking through the messages
while conversing with Yvonne. As she scrolled through the numerous messages on the phone, she
came to a stop upon seeing the name ‘Matthew Kings’ on the list.
Without hesitation, she immediately tapped into the message. However, the content of Matthew’s
message made Veronica’s pupils constrict, as Veronica felt a burst of anger come rising inside her.
The content of the message was photos of her ‘sleeping’ with the upper part of her body naked.
Although the quilt had covered the upper half of her body, one could still faintly see that she was
wearing her birthday suit under the comforter. Furthermore, Xavier was seen holding the ‘sleeping’
Veronica in his arms while he planted a kiss on her forehead.
As for the second photo, it was the same as the first photo where Veronica was ‘sleeping,’ except
Xavier was smiling smugly at the camera.
At that moment, she blanked from the heavy blow she received upon the sight of these photos. The
blow hurt so much that she couldn’t get her words out for some time, even though Yvonne was still on
the other end of the line talking to her.
Instantly, Veronica’s left hand that was holding the phone tightened its grip to the point where the veins
in her hand became visible, while her face grew red with anger.
With the anger she felt, she proceeded to plug the sinkhole in the basin, fill it with water, and throw
Xavier’s phone into the pool of water; she knew that he could use these photos to threaten Matthew
one day, as he had the gall to even send these photos to Matthew.
At this moment, only the sound of the water splashing from the faucet to the water-filled basin echoed
inside the room. Veronica propped her hands on the basin with her head down and eyes closed, as she
only had one thing in her mind—retaliation; a through and through retaliation.
All this time, Veronica had treated Xavier as a friend. She had even chosen not to pursue the matter
back at the wedding out of consideration of their friendship. Yet, not only were Xavier and Melissa
ungrateful, but they had done such a thing behind her back. “Blegh—” Suddenly, she felt a wave of
nausea overcoming her, as she couldn’t imagine just what Xavier had actually done to her that night.
In the photos, Veronica was completely naked, yet she was fully dressed when she woke up the day
after in the hotel. It was conceivable that Xavier had undressed her and put them back on before she
woke up. However, she was completely in the dark as to what Xavier had done to her that entire night.
Veronica’s first thoughts were the worst-case scenario of the situation: that she had been defiled by
Xavier on that night.
Soon, the water completely filled the basin and started flowing out onto the floor. The sound of the
water splashing onto the floor then woke Veronica who was drowning in deep thought. With her senses
returned, she quickly turned off the tap.
With her eyes on the phone that was now already turned off, Veronica knew that the phone sinking into
the water while still on a call had accelerated the damage to the phone’s components. After that, she
drained the water and filled the basin with hot water instead.
After some time had passed when the phone could not be switched on anymore, Veronica took a deep
breath and adjusted her emotions before she went back outside with the now-ruined phone in her
hand. However, the sight of Xavier standing outside greeted her when she opened the door. Thus, the
two pairs of eyes met.
“Are you okay?” Xavier asked as he looked at Veronica with a complicated expression.
When Veronica met Xavier’s gaze, her eyes involuntarily turned distant and tinged with hatred. The
times when she treated him as a friend of hers were no more, as she truly hated the man before her at
this moment. Lowering her head to avoid meeting his eyes, she handed the phone in her hand back to
him.
“Sorry, I had a stomach ache, so I went to the washroom, but… I accidentally dropped your phone into
the toilet bowl. Since it smelled bad, I could only… wash it for you. I’m really sorry about this.” Good
thing she had taken care of the oil stains on her body. Otherwise, he would have thought that she was
acting weird.
“My God! What have you done?” Xavier frowned with his attention focused on the phone in Veronica’s
hand. Feeling disgusted, he hesitated in taking back the phone from her.
“I’m… very sorry about this. Mainly because some of it… got onto your phone, so I had to rinse it off.”
“Goddamn! Veronica Murphy, you’re really one of a kind!” Having not the slightest doubt about
Veronica’s words, Xavier looked around before going into the washroom and came back out with a
bunch of tissues in hand. He then used the tissues to take his phone from her hand. “This is
disgusting.”
“My bad. I’ll buy you a new phone tomorrow. The phone slipped and fell into the toilet when I stood up.
Even I felt disgusted when I had to fish your phone out of the toilet.” Saying that, she purposely sniffed
her hand. “Ugh… it still stinks.”
“You don’t have to buy me a new phone. But that aside, I need to hurry and get the phone fixed.
There’s a lot of important information inside it, after all.”
“What’s so important about them? Can’t you accompany me to have a few drinks instead?”
“No. It’s all important information for the company. I’ll need the phone fixed, or else I’ll have a big mess
on my hand.”
“Then, I’ll accompany you.”
“No need. Just sit and wait here for a while. I’ll ask someone to have it repaired before coming back for
you.” Saying that, Xavier turned around and left.
She watched Xavier leave in a hurry. Is the important thing the company’s information, or those racy
photos? she thought as she stood still with her eyes slightly cold, her attitude indifferent.
It was only after a while did Veronica return to her seat and continue drinking to drown her sorrows.
The things Xavier had done recently had blown past her tolerance. Although she was still keeping up
an appearance of being friendly with him, she had already started planning her revenge on him.
Veronica had never once thought of herself as a soft-hearted person. She chose not to pursue the
matter back when Melissa framed her at the wedding. Xavier joined up with Conrad to cause trouble at
the wedding and even paid Monica’s husband to frame her, wanting to ruin her. This time, she found
the photos Xavier had sent to Matthew.
With all these in mind, she realized just how vindictive Xavier was toward her. First, he stirred the
relationship between her and Matthew. Then, he made a move at the wedding to have Monica’s
husband falsely accuse her of getting physical with someone and simultaneously fanned the flames of
that incident in secret to ruin her reputation, all so to force her into a desperate situation. Xavier, you
truly are beyond ruthless, she thought.
“Haha.” She laughed at herself before finishing the white wine in front of her. After that, she stood up
and settled the bill before she made her exit.
After she arrived home, she couldn’t sleep for the rest of the night, as the matter of Xavier was so
shocking to the extent that she wanted to confront him at this very moment. Nevertheless, she chose
not to be reckless, as she had hired a professional private investigator to find out everything about
Xavier.
Ring, ring—
After some time had passed, Xavier called Veronica’s phone several times, to which she didn’t answer.
Following that, Matthew also called, but she didn’t answer as well due to her exhaustion.
Sitting by herself on the bed, she continued drinking the cans of alcohol she bought, as her mood had
reached an all-time low. On this night, she didn’t know how she fell asleep. What she did know was the
fact that she woke up the next day from sheer coldness.
When she woke up the next day, she realized that she had collapsed on the couch with her body all
curled up without any blanket on her. “Ugh… how could I have fallen asleep here,” she muttered before
she stood up and went over to the bed to continue sleeping.
She didn’t know how long she had slept. However, she had slept long enough that when she next
opened her eyes, she found herself to be in an unfamiliar luxurious room.
