Her Biliionaire Husband

Veronica, her body feeble, was assisted by Xavier as he gently lifted her up. All her weight leaned on him, creating an
inadvertent sense of intimacy between them.
Xavier held a porcelain bowl filled with medicinal soup in one hand and brought it to Veronica's mouth. She slightly parted her
lips and drank the medicine slowly.
Her delicate fragrance lingered in his embrace. She was the woman that Xavier had been yearning for day and night. Seeing her
in this state, he couldn't help but wish he could tear Zac apart to alleviate the hatred in his heart.
For a fleeting moment, memories of the time he had kidnapped Veronica resurfaced in Xavier's mind. He had selfishly wanted to
possess her due to his overwhelming infatuation.
But perhaps the accumulation of the past one or two years had made him grow a lot, to the point where he really wanted to go
back in time and beat himself up for what he had done.
Their relationship wouldn't have grown so distant if it weren't for that impulsive mistake.
He regretted it.
The intense regret lingered, and Xavier's only solace was that Crayson had arrived in the nick of time. Otherwise, he feared he
couldn't forgive himself in this lifetime.
"I've finished drinking."
The medicine was bitter, but she swallowed it down.
After drinking the medicine, Veronica noticed that Xavier was lost in thought while still holding the bowl. She spoke to break his
trance.
Veronico, her body feeble, wos ossisted by Xovier os he gently lifted her up. All her weight leoned on him, creoting on

After drinking the medicine, Veronico noticed thot Xovier wos lost in thought while still holding the bowl. She spoke to breok his
tronce.

"Alright."
Xavier came back to his senses and helped Veronica lie down slowly. He placed the bowl on the table and took out a tissue to
wipe her mouth. "Rest well. The doctor said you'll recover within ten minutes."
"Okay."

Veronica agreed softly and looked at Xavier with a complex mix of emotions. "Xavier, thank you."
He had saved her twice.
The immense gratitude made Veronica's feelings toward Xavier incredibly intricate.
"What's Iron Pillar's phone number?" he asked.
Veronica didn't want to tell Xavier, fearing that it would expose Matthew's identity when he came over and agitated Xavier. It
could lead to another intense confrontation between the two.
"No need to call him. It's fine."
Although she had just taken the medicine, Veronica clearly felt her body condition had improved significantly. At least now she
had enough strength to speak.
"Alright."
Xavier didn't say much and moved a chair to sit by her bed. "How did you end up in Zac's room?"
"I met Zac at the palace today. He said that something happened to my children and asked me to meet him tonight. I was already
on guard, but I still couldn't defend against it."
She had thought that having Matthew with her would ensure their safety, but she didn't expect that Zac would use a trick to lure
Matthew away.
Suddenly, a frown formed on Veronica's brow. "Xavier, my phone is in my pocket. Can you help me take it out so I can make a
call?"
Matthew was undoubtedly skilled, so why had he yet to return? Had something dangerous happened to him?

Veronica was extremely worried and wanted to contact Elrod immediately to look for Matthew.
Knock, knock, knock...
Just as Veronica's words trailed off, the sound of knocking came from outside the room.
Her eyes brightened. Was it Matthew?
"I'll get the door."
Xavier stood up and walked toward the bedroom door.
Is it "Iron Pillar" coming to find Veronica, or is it Zac coming to settle the score with me?
As Xavier approached the door, he pondered the possibilities.
Knock, knock, knock...
The knocking at the door was urgent. Xavier opened the door and was surprised to find Skyler standing outside.
"Why are you here?"
Xavier was surprised to see Skyler.
However, Skyler wasn't in the mood to answer Xavier's question. He brushed past Xavier and strode into the room. "Where's
Roni? Xavier, I'm warning you. If anything happens to Roni, I'll make sure you regret it!"
