Chapter 660 Facial Reconstruction Surgery
Who knew what would happen if Sadie’s demand for 1.5 million was met? She might start demanding more in the future. “Yes, Mrs. Kings.”
Thomas nodded and walked over to Sadie. “Please give me your bank details. I’ll get the finance department to make the transfer now.”
“Huh? Oh. Great. Fantastic. I have my bank details right here on my phone.”
Sadie was ecstatic at the sudden windfall of 900,000. She couldn’t care less about Matthew now. After pulling up her bank details on her phone, she recited the account number out loud for Thomas.
Five minutes later, she received a text informing her that 900,000 had just been transferred to her bank account. Veronica pushed Matthew’s wheelchair herself as she headed off.
Sasha didn’t want to let them leave. She tried to stop Veronica, but Skyler dragged her to the side and said quietly, “It’s better if Matt stays with Roni. If Adrian finds out that he’s with you, both of you might get beaten up together. When that happens, who’s going to save you guys?”
Adrian was in love with Sasha, and she too relied on that violent man far too much. “I…”
Sasha couldn’t refute him. Skyler patted her shoulder. “Take a word of advice from a friend. Just carry on with your life. You can visit Matt whenever you have some time to spare.”
“Hmph. I can’t believe how heartless you are, Drew. We’re childhood friends, but here you are defending an outsider!” “I’m just telling it like it is.”
“I have no freaking idea what kind of spell that witch put on all of you. Why are all of you taking her side?”
“She’s Matt’s wife now. Stop saying such ridiculous things.” Skyler waved to Sasha. “We’re leaving now. Bye.”
He started jogging to catch up to Veronica and the others. All of them climbed into the car which took them to a nearby tarmac with a helicopter waiting for them.
The helicopter ride to Bloomstead took a few hours. It landed right on the rooftop of Matthew’s Saint Private Hospital. After disembarking from the helicopter, he was immediately wheeled off for a full body checkup.
While waiting for him, Veronica had some time to think. She decided to discuss her thoughts with the others. “Matt is injured now and it’ll be quite a while before he can fully recover. Once we get out of the hospital, I plan on taking him to Pinewoods Villa. It has an extremely tight security system so he’ll be safe.”
Pinewoods Villa was a private villa that was completed last year. Matthew had brought Veronica to the place once.
The villa took inspiration from Renaissance architecture and looked like a castle straight out of a fairytale. It was extravagant in every sense of the word.
Before they got married, Matthew had decided to make Pinewoods Villa their marital home, but in the end, Veronica did not have a chance to move in yet.
Caleb, Miguel, and Skyler glanced among themselves before nodding at last.
“That works. It’ll be more suitable for him to recuperate at Pinewoods Villa.”
“We’ll feel more at ease if he’s there.”
“Now that Matt’s injured, the most important thing is to guarantee his safety.”
“Alas, Matt is useless now… Ouch! What are you doing, Miguel?” Skyler did not think there was anything wrong with what he said, but Miguel kicked him.
Skyler frowned and explained, “It’s not a nice thing to say, but it’s true. Matt’s useless now, and what I meant to say is that in his current condition, people most likely won’t be wary of him anymore, and it’s unlikely that they’ll try to harm him further.”
“That’s right. Drew has a point,” Caleb agreed.
Veronica sighed. “I’ll keep him safe. I also want to get in touch with a plastic surgeon as soon as possible so that he can undergo facial reconstruction surgery.”
Skyler nodded. “I thought about that too. Leave it to me. I know an internationally-renowned plastic surgeon who can definitely help Matt recover his looks.”
