Pinewoods Villa. Late at night, Matthew stood alone on the balcony, smoking in silence. After Veronica finished her shower and walked out of the bathroom, she looked at him on the balcony. Wrapped in a bathrobe, she walked over with a slight frown.
Standing beside him, she gently leaned her head on his shoulder. “What are you thinking about?” The man raised his hand and put his arm around her shoulder, smelling the fragrance of her hair. It had a powerful magic that instantly dispelled his worries.
“Looking at the stars,” he said, extinguishing the cigarette with his fingers. He reached up and tousled Veronica’s hair. “Keep your parents here for a while longer. You miss them, didn’t you?”
“I have no problem with that, but I’m worried they won’t fit in here,” Veronica said, looking up at the stars in the night sky, with a deep sense of melancholy. “Shirley has been feeling insecure due to her disfigurement. When my parents came today, she stayed in the other villa at the back and refused to come and see them. Skyler has been with her all this time. I think we need to give Shirley some space.”
“How do you want to arrange it? I’ll listen to you.” Matthew had no objections.
“Shirley and my parents are not the main concern. What’s important is…” Veronica turned her gaze away, looking at Matthew, and sighed deeply. “What about Eleanor? She came from. the Hidden Clan, and after a while, she will gradually adapt to life in Bloomstead. But she can’t just idle around like this. If she doesn’t find something to do, something will happen sooner or later.”
Eleanor was indeed a delicate issue. Being someone from the Hidden Clan, although there were some similarities in customs and habits between the Hidden Clan and Bloomstead, there were still significant differences overall.
Not to mention that she was the leader of the hidden clan and lived a life of luxury. She was accustomed to the life of a privileged person, and it would be impossible for her to start from scratch.
“I have a company. How about letting her learn to manage it?” Matthew held Veronica and gently rested his chin on her head. “Eleanor. saved me, and she saved you. She’s our benefactor. We can’t neglect her.”
That was only one reason. The other point was that Eleanor was Dominik’s sister, and there might be future collaborations between him. and the Hidden Clan. They couldn’t mistreat Eleanor.
“Which company?” Veronica asked. Matthew replied, “Yves Cosmetics.”
“Isn’t that Yvonne’s company?”
“When you introduced Yvonne to me, I invested in her company and found that she had good business acumen. I became the largest shareholder of her company in the end.”
“That works too.” Veronica seemed unable to come up with a better solution. “Once Eleanor gets familiar with life here, we’ll have Troy teach her about business. When she’s fully capable, we’ll hand over the management to her. But we must ensure that Yvonne’s shareholding and dividends are not reduced in any way.”
“Naturally,” Matthew said. He knew that Veronica cared about Yvonne. After all, Yvonne once came from a wealthy background. It was because of those scandalous videos that became her leverage, leading to Zac repeatedly threatening her father, Hensen, which ultimately resulted in the bankruptcy of the Spencer Family.
This cosmetics company was probably the last asset of the Spencer Family, and Matthew Kings would never embezzle it.
“In a few days, Hendrey and Xavier should be returning,” Veronica changed the subject, feeling somewhat worried. “The day at the Hidden Clan Palace, what if they discover the truth about Zac’s death? If they find out, could it pose a threat to us?”
Although Veronica remembered her past with Hendrey Johnson, those were all in the past. Who could guarantee that Hendrey wouldn’t turn against them?
