Chapter 1075 Shirley Wilson Left
"Indeed, money can make one behave recklessly," said Veronica as she chuckled and shook her head.
She never expected such a thing to happen to Matthew.
Ring ring ring—
Just as they were joking around, Veronica's phone suddenly rang.
She pulled out her phone, glanced at the screen, and said to Matthew, "It's the lunatic calling me. Let
me answer it."
Veronica leaned against Matthew and turned on the speakerphone to answer the call. "Calling me at
this hour, are you asking me out for dinner?"
"Oh, come on! Demoness, can you have some dignity? I called you to share some great news, and
you're talking about food?"
Larry's excitement could be felt on the other end of the phone.
Veronica glanced up at Matthew, her eyes filled with a hint of anticipation. "What's the good news?"
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt"'Interstellar' was a huge box office success, don't you know?" Larry was quite excited.
Considering his position, the reaction was entirely unexpected.
"Well, it is not your first movie to achieve such success. Is there really a need to be so excited?"
"I... you..." Larry was momentarily at a loss for words and muttered under his breath. "It is you and your
performance that made the box office successful. Of course, I'm excited. Your scenes with Stephen
were absolutely captivating. Several directors noticed you and even asked me to contact you for film
opportunities."
Larry was extremely excited, and his voice unconsciously raised in volume. "With the support of
'Interstellar,' you will not have to worry about your career in the film industry. Weren't you the most
eager person to become an actor when we were in school? Isn't this the opportunity you've been
waiting for?"
As Veronica's 'best buddy,' Larry understood her dreams well.
"What kind of international joke are you talking about? I'm married, and I have two kids. How can I be
an actor? Stop kidding around." Veronica thought Larry had lost his mind.
"Talented actors speak through their work; getting married doesn't affect that," Larry patiently
persuaded Veronica. Then, he impatiently added, "Alright, forget it. I have something to do now. We'll
talk later."
"Oh, alright… beep beep beep—"
Before Veronica could even finish the word 'alright,' he hung up the phone.
She held her phone, with Larry's words echoing in her mind.
Initially, she had a passion for acting, but due to a difficult family environment and financial pressures,
she could not pursue her career as an actress. Instead, she wholeheartedly focused on voice work,
earning money like crazy.
Larry was extremely excited, and his voice unconsciously raised in volume. "With the support of

Now that she had money and a happy family, Veronica thought it would be good to dabble in the film
industry and do what she truly wanted.
"Do whatever you want to do. Roni, life is short, so don't leave any regrets behind," Matthew said as he
held her hand. He truly supported her in everything.
"Really?" She hesitated. "I had married you, and we have two children. Even if I have the talent, people
will say I enter the film industry with your financial support."
Considering this, Veronica waved her hand dismissively. "Well… Forget it. Some dreams will always
remain dreams, without a chance to be realized."
She sighed deeply, and her tone filled with endless regret. Matthew said nothing more.
Shortly after, they returned to Pinewoods Villa together.
When they were home, Veronica did not see Shirly. When she was about to call her, a servant passed
by. "Where are Shirley and Skyler?" she asked.
"Young Master Skyler drove away today, probably taking Miss Wilson with him," the servant replied.
Despite she only saw Skyler driving away, considering how inseparable they are, the servant
instinctively assumed that they left the villa together.
