Chapter 440 Compete for the Spinfluence Group
“Yvie gave birth at Westcross Children Hospital. The child is about six pounds. It’s a boy.” Conrad
accurately told Elizabeth about the child.
It was evident that everything was under Conrad’s control. Veronica suddenly felt that Yvonne could not
easily leave Bloomstead now. After Conrad said that, he turned to look at Veronica. “Roni, you’re the
one who sent Yvie to that hospital, right?”
Veronica said Yvonne had gone abroad a moment ago, but Conrad exposed her lies. Veronica held the
fork and scooped some salad to her mouth, pretending to be calm. She wanted to avoid the subject.
However, Elizabeth looked at Veronica with a meaningful gaze. There was a rare seriousness that
appeared on her wrinkled face. “Is that so?”
She did not address Veronica affectionately. Instead, Elizabeth asked this bluntly. Hearing the stately
tone of Elizabeth, Veronica did not dare to hide it, so she nodded and admitted, “Yes.”
Conrad must be fully prepared to tell Grandma about this. Even if I deny it, Conrad could still come up
with evidence to refute me, so it’s useless to lie.
When Veronica nodded and admitted to it, she keenly noticed that Elizabeth frowned, then glanced at
Matthew. “Matthew, do you know about this?”
“Yes.” Matthew continued to lower his head to calmly eat, as if what just happened had nothing to do
with him. Not many could be calm in this situation—Conrad was a classic example.
The man thought Matthew would be furious after he said something important. However, Matthew did
not react. To Conrad, Matthew was pretending.
Conrad thought that Matthew was panicking, and the latter was only trying to act calm. However,
Matthew really didn’t care about this. Elizabeth had her mouth agape as she tried to say something.
However, when she saw Matthew calmly enjoying the meal, she said, “Let’s finish the meal.”
“Okay, Mom.” Conrad had to obey when Elizabeth spoke. Still, he couldn’t hold back his giddiness and
smiled at Matthew. However, the cold man didn’t even give Conrad a glance. They dined quietly, except
for the crisp sound of knives and forks hitting the porcelain plates.
After the meal, Elizabeth put down her knife and fork to sipe her mouth with a tissue. Then, she said to
Conrad, “Conrad, come with me.”
“Yes, Mom.” Conrad nodded, thereafter getting up and walking past Veronica to Elizabeth. Then, he
helped the latter out of the dining room. It was then that Matthew and Veronica were left alone at the
table.
Veronica retracted her gaze from Conrad and Elizabeth to look at Matthew, only to see him playing with
his phone, looking indifferent and relaxed.
“Yvonne’s child concerns the heir to the Spinfluence Group. Why didn’t you tell me about this?”
She felt out of touch when Matthew never told her about this.
However, the one that was out of touch the most was Matthew.
Matthew turned off his phone screen and raised his head to meet Veronica’s gaze with a pair of
charming eyes. “It’s useless telling you about this. Would you make Yvonne go through an abortion? Or
would you be able to stop Uncle Conrad?”
Veronica can’t do anything, so there is no need to tell her about these things.
Veronica was speechless after hearing these two questions, as she didn’t know how to refute.
She frowned while holding the tissue she just used to wipe her mouth, feeling irritable.
A*shole, what do you mean?
“Matthew, although we broke up, I am still Old Mrs. Kings’ god-granddaughter. Can you stop being so
passive-aggressive?!”
She was in a bad mood, so she scolded Matthew.
Matthew raised his eyebrows in response. “Uncle Conrad is my uncle, and I treat him the same. You
have to get used to it.”
He spoke slowly, making it impossible for one to tell his feelings.
However, Veronica felt pained deep down because Matthew was acting as if they had never had an
intimate relationship.
“You—” Veronica couldn’t help but get annoyed. “Yeah, I can’t do anything. However, I could’ve
prepared Yvonne mentally if you told me earlier!”
“I’m sorry, but I don’t have any obligation to do this.”
Facing the woman he loved, Matthew said every barbed word with insult.
Although he couldn’t bear it, Matthew had to distance himself from Veronica. Only in this way could he
silently do more for her.
During the three months of their break up, Matthew asked himself countless times in the boundless
dark.
Is it worth doing this for Veronica? Will she start a new relationship when I’m helping her? Will she hate
me forever?
These questions had plagued Matthew for a long time, but he was a persistent man.
There was no going back for him once he decided something.
“You’re right.” Veronica nodded while pulling out a sarcastic smile. “You win, Matthew Kings.”
She angrily slapped the tissue on the dining table and left.
Matthew sat on his chair. He didn’t dare to look at Veronica’s angry and disappointed retreating figure.
It was because he was afraid that one glance would be seen by the spies from Conrad. In addition,
Matthew was afraid he would run to Veronica and hug her into his arms to tenderly coax and comfort
her.
Veronica crossed the cobblestone path and went to the small pond. Sitting in the pavilion by the pond,
she sighed deeply. Then, she angrily grabbed the leaves of the lush that were growing on the pavilion
railing. “B*stard!”
She cursed, then suddenly thought of something important, so she immediately called Yvonne.
After a few beeps, Yvonne answered the phone. “What’s the matter, Roni?”
“Yvonne, Conrad knows that you have given birth to a child. He wants to use your child to compete for
the position of heir to the Spinfluence Group. “You must prepare yourself because Conrad will not let
your child go.””
Veronica briefed Yvonne about the situation.
On the other end of the phone, Yvonne was silent.
“Hello? Yvonne, did you hear me?” Veronica shouted worriedly when she couldn’t hear anything.
“I-I heard it. Don’t worry; I will not let Conrad take my son away even if it costs me my life,” Yvonne
replied decisively.
“Then you—”
Beep, beep, beep!
Before Veronica could speak again, Yvonne hung up the call.
Veronica put away her phone. Leaning against the railing, she sighed.
She broke up with Matthew, so she didn’t want Matthew to talk about Yvonne’s case.
Although Veronica didn’t want to show her weakness before Matthew, Conrad was a force to be
reckoned with and she couldn’t handle him.
