Her Biliionaire Husband

Chapter 71

Veronica shrugged and then she bowed deeply to Elizabeth. “Grandma, I’m very sorry for that.”

“Ha!It’s alright.”

Elizabeth’s reaction was totally beyond Veronica’s expectations. Meanwhile, Elizabeth was elated and she grabbed hold of Veronica before studying the latter as she circled her. “Gosh! I read on the news two days ago that you’re the Larsons’ daughter and I didn’t believe it then. I can’t believe that you’re actually the one. If I hadn’t gotten the preemptive information from the news, I would have definitely been shocked.”

“Grandma, aren’t you angry with me?”

Veronica had initially assumed that Elizabeth would be unhappy to see her reveal her actual look. However, Elizabeth wasn’t the least bit upset at all. Belonging © NôvelDram/a.Org.

“Gosh, I’m more than happy for you! Why would I get angry?”

Just then, Elizabeth held Veronica’s hand tenderly. “Come to think of it, you look exactly like Tiffany. The only difference is the mole on your nose. Your eyes look bigger, and are more expressive and prettier than hers. You little brat! You’re so pretty, yet you disguise yourself as such an ugly-looking person!”

Just then, Elizabeth had so much to share with Veronica and the former conveniently overlooked Tiffany. Tiffany was significantly displeased about it, but she didn’t dare to reveal her displeasure.

“Veronica, where have you disappeared to lately? Do you know that Mom and I have been searching for you all this while?”

Tiffany, who was the best at putting on an act, stepped forward and grabbed Veronica into a tight hug. “I knew it! It’s no wonder that I felt a sense of familiarity when we first met. It’s obviously because you’re my younger sister. Did you know in advance about our relationship? Did you put on that ugly disguise because you didn’t want to come back home with me?”.

The tears suddenly streamed down Tiffany’s face as she sobbed. Her ‘heart wrenching’ performance pained those who saw her.

Meanwhile, Veronica stood there with a stunned look as Tiffany hugged her. The former’s entire body was stiff and she felt as if she had been struck by lightning. The

uncomfortable sensation she felt right now was utterly unbearable.

However, Veronica knew that her acting skills were as good as Tiffany’s, so she reached out to push Tiffany aside. The former contemptuously refused to continue this act with the latter, so she coldly mentioned, “Yes. I purposely put on a disguise to avoid going back home.”

As such, she managed to come up with a great excuse for her decision to put on a disguise.

Despite her strong urge to uncover the Larson Family’s true colors, she realized that Elizabeth had just recovered from a stroke not long ago and couldn’t sustain any shock. Hence, Veronica didn’t dare to reveal the truth.

Otherwise, if anything happened to Elizabeth from the shocking revelation, Veronica was unable to suffer Matthew’s wrath.

By then, without Elizabeth’s protection, Veronica would definitely be in a precarious state.

Just then, Tiffany’s eyes were reddened and she swallowed. With trembling lips, she muttered, “Why? Do you know how much Mom missed you all of these years? She has been searching for you

everywhere while you were gone these past few days.”

“No particular reason. I just didn’t like it. Is this a sufficient explanation?” Veronica harshly retorted, her expression cold.

Anxious to locate me? They‘re just anxious to locate me so that they can get rid of me in the shortest ti me possible!

“Goodness, that’s enough. Tiffany, it’s great that Veronica’s been located, but she has been brought up by her adopted parents all this while so she would naturally be close to them. You can’t rush things.”

Elizabeth pulled Tiffany aside and advised, “Now that Veronica’s been located, you should quickly go back and inform your parents. It’s just nice too, because I’ve got some things to share with Veronica as well.”

It was obvious from Elizabeth’s words that it was time for Tiffany to leave.

With reddened eyes, Tiffany lifted a finger to wipe off the tears on her face. Subsequently, she walked to stand in front of Matthew and said softly, “Matthew, thanks for helping to locate my younger sister

Though Tiffany expressed her gratitude verbally, she was in fact extremely jealous deep down. This annoying b*tch! Why couldn‘t she have died when she was out there? How did she manage to get back alive?!

“She’s Grandma’s god-granddaughter, so it’s just something that I should do,” Matthew coolly replied.

His words sounded quite formal to the point that he seemed indifferent.

“Matthew, where did you find Veronica?” Tiffany continued to ask.

Meanwhile, he glanced at Veronica before replying to Tiffany’s question, “Actually, she went to the countryside to take a break, so there was nothing to worry about. Since we’ve located her, you should inform your parents as soon as possible.”

“Exactly! This means that Thomas can send you home and then bring your parents over too. Let’s have dinner together,” Elizabeth commented as she basked in joy, elated beyond words.

Meanwhile, Tiffany clenched her fists tightly to the point that her fingernails became deeply embedded into her palms. She was extremely jealous to see Elizabeth being so fond of Veronica, but she could only put on an obedient front and nod her head. “Alright, grandma. I’ll go back first. Veronica, stay on and keep Grandma company. I’ll go now.”

At that moment, Veronica couldn’t even care less about responding to Tiffany, as she was mainly concerned about Elizabeth. “Grandma, when did you get discharged from the hospital? How are you feeling?”

“I’m feeling great! Although the blood clot in my brain has dissolved, the doctor has still given me instructions to take a good rest.”

The two of them continued to chat with each other as Matthew turned around and walked off to make a phone call.

Meanwhile, Tiffany seemed to be the odd one out as she stood there in the huge living room.

Just then, Tiffany glared at Veronica ferociously and she turned around to leave, her expression furious.

Inside the living room, Elizabeth held on to Veronica’s hand as they sat on the couch. Elizabeth used her wizened hands to cup Veronica’s face and then the former took a close look at it. It was as if the

older woman couldn’t get enough of the girl’s looks. “Actually, you’re very good-looking after removing your disguise. Although you look similar to Tiffany, you’re in fact much prettier. Gosh! You’re a sight for sore eyes indeed.”

Elizabeth patted Veronica’s hand and was significantly in happy spirits.

On the other hand, Veronica seemed quite bashful as she asked, “Grandma, aren’t you mad at me?”

“What’s there to be mad about? I just think that Matthew, that little brat, must have been blind. If he hadn’t been disdainful of your looks back then and married you directly, it would have been awesome!”

Just then, Elizabeth glared at Matthew, who had just walked over, and turned to Veronica. “Don’t worry, though. Bloomstead is huge and there are plenty of great guys too. Once I announce to the public that you’re my granddaughter, I’ll also start to sort out a date for you.”

Since the first time that Elizabeth had met Veronica, the former had been exceptionally fond of the latter.

Furthermore, Veronica had saved Elizabeth, and this also deepened the old lady’s good impression of her.

Elizabeth’s biggest regret was perhaps that Matthew didn’t manage to marry Veronica. Now that he was engaged to be married to Tiffany, there was nothing else Elizabeth could say.

Upon hearing that, Matthew became thunderous and he coldly exclaimed, “Even if she’s your granddaughter, ultimately, she comes from the countryside so no one in Bloomstead will be interested in her.”

Somehow, he was quite annoyed to hear Elizabeth mention introducing a prospective date for Veronica.

Suddenly, he seemed to find Veronica’s flawless looks extremely annoying, and he didn’t find her as likable as her previous darker and uglier self.

“Shut your mouth! You’re her elder brother from now on and if you dare to bully her, I’ll definitely break your legs!” Elizabeth chided Matthew angrily, and then she pointed at him. “There’s one more thing- send the details and photos of those handsome, rich guys that you always hang out with to me. Make sure to pick the responsible ones. I’ll personally pick a date for Veronica.”
