Chapter 486 Discovering the Truth
Veronica had carefully distinguished the voices in the recording, and it was really Matthew’s voice. As
she was highly sensitive to voices—after all, she had to mimic voices when dressing up in different
genders and had also worked as a voice actress before—she was sure that the recording was
authentic.
However… she thought. If Matthew really doesn’t like Sasha, then why did he insist on breaking up
with me and even act like he really likes Sasha?
All of a sudden, Veronica felt as though she was thrown into a deep, confusing abyss, and she had lost
her way and couldn’t find the exit. “Where did this recording come from? What if it was staged by a few
voice actors? Who knows?”
She immediately adopted a disdainful expression as she attempted to get some information from
Adrian. “The other day, I placed a miniature bug into her pocket when Sasha came to see me. So, it’s
not difficult to find out this information.” “I think Sasha doesn’t like you, does she?”
Despite the fact that she didn’t have many interactions with Sasha, she was sure that she liked
Matthew. People always said that the eyes were the windows to the soul, and the eyes would
unwittingly reveal emotions when a person was in love.
“You’re brilliant, Miss Murphy.” Adrian didn’t deny the truth. “Yes, Sasha doesn’t love me. Since you
know that she has undergone surgery before, you should understand that no one else in this world can
accept her but me. At the same time, she’s very reliant on me.”
“If she’s reliant on you, why is she staying by Matthew’s side? I really think you’re overestimating
yourself, Mr. Colland.”
“The fact that she likes Matthew Kings doesn’t affect my love for her. I invited you today because I want
to strike a deal with you.” He rubbed his fingers against the coffee cup on the table, then took a sip and
continued, “From the recording, I can tell that Matthew Kings likes you. You—”
Before he could finish, Veronica broke him off, saying, “The recording can’t prove anything, and I’m
sure that he doesn’t like me.”
After she listened to the recording, she could be sure of one thing—if Matthew didn’t like Sasha, she
could test that out in many ways, but if he really didn’t like Sasha, it meant that he had some secrets he
couldn’t reveal, or he had no other choice.
In that case, it went to show that Matthew was purposely distancing himself from her by breaking up
with her, and it was highly possible that he was scheming something. Hence, she should play along
with him.
Despite that, she wasn’t a hundred percent sure about the relationship between Matthew and Sasha,
so she reckoned that there was a need to keep it a secret for Matthew.
“Also, there’s something else which you probably don’t know about, Mr. Colland.” He raised her brows
as she shrugged helplessly. “That evening after I met you in the café, Sasha came to look for me and
started a fight with me because she felt that I was still seducing Matthew even after the breakup. I
struck her, and Matthew happened to see that. After that, he forced me to apologize to her, but I
refused. Just one word from him later, it completely destroyed my career, and he also sent the word out
that anyone that hires me is making an enemy out of the Kings Family,” she said, telling him what
happened that day.
However, this came as unbelievable to Adrian. “That’s impossible.”
“Nothing is impossible.” She tilted her head as she looked into the distance forlornly and sighed deeply.
“People are capable of anything when they’re mad. Who knows if they didn’t plan this recording
specially for you?”
Only God knows, she thought, unable to explain this recording despite brooding over it.
She wasn’t sure about Matthew’s real purpose at the moment, so this was all she could do.
“Mr. Colland, I don’t think I can help you with anything because I can’t even save myself from the fire
pit.”
Finally, she rose to her feet as she intended to leave the café.
“Wait a minute.” Adrian sang a different tune this time, “Nevertheless, I still think that Matthew Kings
has feelings for you. His family is huge, and so is their family business. Therefore, it’s impossible for
him to date Sasha because she can’t bear any children.”
The Kings Family is huge, and so is their family business. Therefore it’s impossible for him to date
Sasha? Veronica repeated in her head.
This phrase from him was as good as a wake-up call, and she knitted her brows as her eyes grew large
with sudden realization. That’s right. The Kings Family has a vast business empire, and they definitely
won’t allow him to be with a barren woman.
Furthermore, it just so happened that Matthew and Conrad were vying for the position of the heir; it
showed that this position mattered very much to Matthew.
If that were true, why would he marry Sasha?
Veronica couldn’t help but lament, No wonder previously, when he broke up with me, I couldn’t help but
feel that there was something not quite right. Nevertheless, now that I have this little nugget of
information, everything only seems logical on the surface.
Considering his current position, it seemed highly likely that Matthew was probably hiding something
from her.
Slowly, she turned her head around and stared at him. “That’s his choice, and it’s not related to me.
Rather than wasting your time on me, why don’t you contact Sasha yourself and get rid of your abusive
ways? Maybe things will change, then.”
She had absolutely zero tolerance toward abusive men, and even though Veronica found Adrian foul,
she wouldn’t make it that obvious.
She stood at the entrance when she left the café and watched the sunset in all its glory. The sunset
was suddenly such a beautiful sight to her with its warm palette of colors, and she suddenly felt as
though a ray of sunlight had shone into her life, giving her hope that things would take a turn for the
better.
The moment she returned home, she took out her laptop and decided to investigate the truth behind
the matter. After giving the current situation a good thought, she began her investigation from Twilight
Condominium.
The surveillance of Twilight Condominium had audio as well. So, as long as she could crack the
surveillance cameras, she could find the part where Matthew and Sasha were speaking and maybe
find some clues.
They had broken up for more than three months, so she started her investigations the week before the
breakup. Unfortunately, she could only detect the video content of them planning a conspiracy by going
back a few days.
Therefore, she buckled down and got right down to it. She made herself comfortable on the couch,
turned on her laptop, and cracked the surveillance system. Finally, she entered the date and started
watching the videos at double the speed.
The video content of the first day was the video of her and Matthew at home. In the playback, both of
them were intimate and loving. As she watched those lovey-dovey scenes, she couldn’t help but slip
into those sweet memories, and the edges of her lips curled up unwittingly.
Fast-forwarding at sixteen times the speed to the next day, she saw Matthew leaving in the afternoon
and coming back. When it was almost dark, he left the place again at seven in the evening and only
returned after ten.
Veronica distinctly remembered that they planned to register their marriage on this day, and that was
why both of them were dressed in white so that it would be more convenient to take pictures for the
marriage registrations.
In the end, the registration didn’t happen, and she received a call from her adopted mother that they
were coming to Bloomstead.
Hence, they could only give up the idea and wait for their arrival, and when they reached Bloomstead,
they went to pick them up to eat at One Piece Restaurant. In the evening, after they arranged for her
parents to stay at Crayson’s place, Matthew returned to the condominium with her.
All these were very normal at first, but while watching the surveillance, Veronica suddenly realized that
Matthew had left her bedroom at around two in the morning, and he tiptoed when he closed the door.
After that, he changed his shoes at the entrance and left.
Thus, she immediately paused the surveillance video, rewound it, and replayed it.
Suddenly, she remembered asking Matthew the next day after she woke up why she didn’t see him the
night before.
