Chapter 1133 Miguel Gets Beaten Up
Due to their noble status, the Robins would never accept her.
Veronica felt sorry for Shirley, but she was aware that Shirley wouldn't be happy staying in Bloomstead.
On the other end of the line, Matthew remained silent for a long time. "What should I say if Skyler
asks?"
"If Skyler asks you to look for her, you can agree but don't actually send anyone to look for her." She
reclined on the couch as the dilemma set in her. "It's almost impossible for them to stay together. And
there's Sofia between them. It's good that she left. Besides, she still has the compensation I gave her.
She'll be fine. Let's just let things take their course."
Veronica personally handed the money to Shirley. However, she didn't know that Shirley actually threw
away the credit card in a fit of pique upon realizing that there was no chance of recovery.
Neither did she know that Shirley spent a long time searching for it under the pressure of getting
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtthreatened by Sofia. In the end, Shirley couldn't find it anywhere.
Veronica didn't look into the matter, so she naturally didn't know about Shirley being threatened by
Sofia.
With that, the matter came to an end.
"I'll do as you say," Matthew responded, holding his phone in one hand and flipping through documents
with the other. "I'll be busy for now. Rest up. The filing starts tomorrow, so I'll finish my work and come
back early to accompany you."
"Okay." Veronica sounded cheerful as she hung up the phone in a good mood.
Melancholy seeped into her for a while because of Shirley's situation, but she didn't dwell on it and
continued to study the script.
Meanwhile, Matthew, who was at the company, buried himself in his work and didn't even have time to
eat lunch until noon.
He finished going through the documents at 2.30PM. He stood up to give his body a stretch. The lunch
prepared by Thomas was left untouched on the table.
Matthew glanced at his watch and finally decided to return home to keep Veronica company. He
wouldn't know when he would see her again once the filming started.
Bang!
Just then, the door was kicked open. Miguel, dressed in a white suit, took angry strides toward
Matthew. He pointed to his own broken glass and the streak of blood adorning his lips. "Look, look at
what you've done!"
Matthew, who was putting on his coat, laughed. "You got beaten up and came to me. What's the
matter? You're the big brother and you need my support?"
Miguel was the oldest amongst them, but he was only a few months older than Matthew.
"What support? Last night, I mentioned that a few people were interested in Eleanor and I asked if
you're considering sending her away. It was a joke, but you agreed. Today, I took her to a client's
meeting. The owner of Smokey Corporation liked her. He's a talented, young man, so I thought he
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmwould be a good match. I agreed. I thought I was being a good matchmaker, but then Eleanor beat me
up! And this is all your d*mn fault!" Miguel misunderstood Matthew's intentions.
He thought that Matthew intended to seek a good match for Eleanor from the people he worked with.
Who knew that he would be beaten up by the hot-tempered Eleanor?
Matthew's hand, which was adjusting his collar, paused. He burst into laughter. "Your thoughts are wild,
huh?"
"What do you mean?" Miguel glared at Matthew. His hair was messy and the shattered lens made him
look both disheveled and hilarious.
"Can't you realize that it was a joke?" Matthew patted Miguel's shoulder. "Good luck, dude."
"You—"
Bang!
Before Miguel could say anything else, the office door was booted open again.
