Chapter 646 Meeting the Spencers
Veronica had ruined Conrad back at Yvonne’s place, but she heard that he hired a top international
andrologist to heal him. Guess it must be going well.
“You’re just asking for it now!” Conrad flew into a rage and raised a hand against her. Yvette’s heart
skipped a beat, and she tried to step in.
However, Veronica caught his wrist in a tight grip, stopping him from moving. She hissed, “If we’re both
going to die, I’ll make sure you go before I do.” She flung his hand away.
For some reason, Conrad staggered for a while before he found his bearing. No one knew whether it
was due to her force being too strong or the ground being all slippery.
She then left after that.

The ladies knew how much Matthew’s disappearance had impacted her, so they didn’t bring his name
up.
Someone texted her while they were chatting. She took her phone up and clicked on WhatsApp to
check from whom she received the message. It was from Xavier, and he had sent her a photo.
He saved her life at the wedding, and she was hospitalized after that. He left without saying goodbye,
and they had never contacted each other since then. She opened the photo and saw a red invitation
card emblazoned with golden words. It was a petite card, but she could feel the class it radiated.
Xavier texted her again a moment later.
‘My wedding’s in two days. Wanna come?’ he asked.
Veronica was then harkened back to the day of her wedding. Back at Primrose, she watched as he fell
to the floor from taking a bullet for her.
When that mercenary asked Antheena if they should kill Veronica off, Xavier shook his head weakly.
“I’ll marry you once I recover.” He exchanged his marriage just to save Veronica.
She could see his face in her mind; that arrogant, thuggish, and yet charming look. It was supposed to
be a soothing memory, but she felt her heart aching for him. The ache wasn’t like the splitting kind of
pain, no. It was more like a numbing pain spreading throughout her body as if she was being pricked by
thousands of needles all over.
Shirley noticed the downcast look in Veronica’s eyes. She asked, “Are you alright, Roni?”
Monica asked as well, “Are you okay?”
Veronica put her phone on the table and smiled. “Yeah. I just wanna see you girls and have some tea.
It’s been a while since we last met.”
Her smile wasn’t genuine. It was sloppy, even, but her friends were used to it. Ever since Matthew was
gone, she had never smiled happily.

Veronica and Ruka finally landed in Castron. She had promised Ruka this trip even before she was
married. Colt and Destiny tagged along as well.
“I’m so sorry to drag you with me, darling. And you’re pregnant too.” Ruka held Veronica’s hand and
rubbed her cheek on Veronica’s shoulder. “I know you love me.”
“Oh, let me go.” She tried to shrug Ruka away. Great. I can feel goosebumps all over my skin.
“No! I’m your guardian. I can’t just let you go.” Ruka smiled and took Veronica into a car.
Because of the time difference, it was late at night in Castron. A driver drove them to the hotel so they
could retire for the night, but Veronica woke up early the next day and drove to Yvonne’s house. Her
friend had given her the address before.
As she stood before the majestic Edinson Manor, she thought to herself, No wonder Zac wanted to get
Mr. and Mrs. Spencer on his side.
