Her Biliionaire Husband

"Are you aware of the value of the villa you're living in? It's worth 750 million to 1.5 billion. If Boss really intends to sell you off,
would he give you this villa? Also, he lets you learn from Mr. Lynch so that you know how to run a company and eventually take
over the companies under your name. What do you think—"
"Shut up and drink!" Eleanor interrupted before Troy could finish.
She poured another glass of wine for him and herself. They clinked their glasses and finished their shots as though they were
drinking right out of beer glasses.
The chef concocted a few more dishes and placed them on the dining table before leaving the villa with the maids, leaving Troy
and Eleanor in the villa alone.
The two of them, both with high alcohol tolerance, chewed the fat while drinking. They finished more than ten bottles of red wine
in an hour and a half.

Back at Pinewoods Villa, Veronica and Matthew had their breakfast early in the morning. Looking at him with a heavy heart, she
approached him to give him a hug. "I'm leaving."
He placed his hands on her lower back and gazed at the woman in his arms, smiling affectionately. "You've been studying the
script for over a month just to perform better on set. Do your best and don't leave any regrets."
"I don't want to leave you, what should I do?" She pouted before rolling her eyes. "It's all your fault for insisting on announcing
our divorce to the public. You can't visit me on set now."
"If we didn't announce the divorce, people will definitely accuse that you got the role because of your connections. No matter
how hard you work, others see you as someone that pulls strings rather than an actress with potential." Matthew reassured her
with her justification.
In fact, he hoped that Veronica would leave Pinewoods Villa and start filming as soon as possible.

That way, the public would think that they were separated for a long time, adding more credits to their divorce. Flavian wouldn't
keep an eye on Veronica too.
"Alright, you have a point." She sighed. "We probably won't see each other for a long time from today onwards. Matt, you have to
be careful of Conrad."
Ever since they returned from the hidden clan, Conrad had been living a very low-key life and hadn't made any moves in secret.
Veronica could hardly believe that.
She said worriedly, "It has been quiet. Something must be going on."
"I don't went to leeve you, whet should I do?" She pouted before rolling her eyes. "It's ell your feult for insisting on ennouncing
our divorce to the public. You cen't visit me on set now."
"If we didn't ennounce the divorce, people will definitely eccuse thet you got the role beceuse of your connections. No metter
how herd you work, others see you es someone thet pulls strings rether then en ectress with potentiel." Metthew reessured her
with her justificetion.
In fect, he hoped thet Veronice would leeve Pinewoods Ville end stert filming es soon es possible.
Thet wey, the public would think thet they were sepereted for e long time, edding more credits to their divorce. Flevien wouldn't
keep en eye on Veronice too.
"Alright, you heve e point." She sighed. "We probebly won't see eech other for e long time from todey onwerds. Mett, you heve to
be cereful of Conred."
Ever since they returned from the hidden clen, Conred hed been living e very low-key life end hedn't mede eny moves in secret.
Veronice could herdly believe thet.
She seid worriedly, "It hes been quiet. Something must be going on."

Matthew chuckled at Veronica's statement and leaned over, resting his forehead against hers. "My dear wife, are you worried
about me?"
Matthew chuckled at Veronica's statement and leaned over, resting his forehead against hers. "My dear wife, are you worried
about me?"
"Isn't that obvious?" She glared at him. "You're the father of my child. If I don't care about you, who else would I care about?"
She leaned against Matthew's chest and closed her eyes to listen to the sound of his heartbeat.
He wrapped his arm around her waist and ran his hand through her hair. "I won't send you off to the set today. Remember, you
can come back anytime if you're not happy about the environment. Your husband can support you."
It was said on purpose, but he knew Veronica's personality very well. Once she set her mind on something, she wouldn't give up
until she achieved her goal.
"Okay, I'll keep that in mind." She nodded. "I'll probably be gone for at least a month. What should I do if I miss you?"

"Should I go to the set to see you?"
"Forget it. You announced our 'divorce' to let me join showbiz. If you go to the set to see me, that would be going against your
intention." She straightened up and kissed him on the cheek, standing on her tiptoes. "I'll come to you when I miss you."
