Chapter 880 Tiffany Went Missing
“What? Matthew, stop it! It’s getting late. We’re having breakfast in less than one hour.” “Roni, are you implying that one hour isn’t enough? It seems like I’ve neglected my responsibilities.” “No! That’s not what I mean! You—”
Veronica wasn’t allowed to finish her words as Matthew sealed her lips with a kiss. An hour later, someone knocked on the door.
“Miss Veronica, it’s time for breakfast.” It was the servant at home who came upstairs to call her for breakfast. However, a new chef had replaced the former one.
Veronica’s cheeks were burning red. Hastily putting a finger in front of her lips, she gestured for Matthew to stay silent and not move at all. The man naturally did as he was told.
“All right. I’ll be right there!” she shouted in response. There was no sound outside as the servant had already left and headed downstairs. At that point, Veronica tried to reason with Matthew. “It’s time to go.”
“There’s no need to rush.” “Master Crayson and Mateo will be there too. If we don’t show up, it will give them ideas about what we did. Isn’t that embarrassing?”
“You can stop worrying about it. They aren’t coming back before noon.” “They aren’t? What happened?” She couldn’t help but worry.
At that, a hint of anger dawned on Matthew’s cold face. Slightly lowering his eyelids, he threatened calmly, “Veronica, you aren’t getting out of bed any sooner. I swear.” “What? No! I just want to—stop it, Matt! Honey, don’t—”
Another hour passed before he finally spared her. After the pair washed up, they left the room one after another. However, Matthew returned to the upper level instead of going downstairs to not embarrass Veronica.
Meanwhile, she went downstairs on her wobbling legs for breakfast.
As expected, aside from the servant and the new chef, she couldn’t find Crayson or Mateo in the large living room.
Destiny wasn’t there either.
Taking a seat in the dining room, Veronica asked the servant, “Madam Dorothy, where are the others? Did they have breakfast already?”
Dorothy shook her head. “I don’t know anything about that. I haven’t seen Master Waylen, Young Master Mateo, Miss Destiny, or Iron Pillar today. Terran told me that they aren’t coming back today according to what Master Waylen told him yesterday.”
The new chef was a young man named Terran.
“All right.” Veronica didn’t ask the woman any more questions and only focused on the food in front of her. However, the uneasiness within her remained.
Meanwhile, Hendrey was also facing a situation that unnerved him.
He had a good night’s sleep and was enjoying a delicious breakfast until one of his men showed up and reported that Tiffany went missing.
After the initial shock, he immediately dispatched his men to search for her around the house while he looked through the surveillance footage himself.
However, someone had messed with the cameras, causing them not to record anything that happened last night.
Tiffany had disappeared without leaving any clues. It was as if she had vanished from the world.
Hendrey asked his men to go out and searched for her while he immediately took off from his mansion and headed to Zac’s place.
Iron Pillar’s true identity as Matthew was an unexpected discovery. Hendrey had been hesitating about whether he should tell Zac or not. After a long time of pondering, he eventually decided to hide the truth.
As Tiffany had gone missing, Zac would no doubt hold him accountable.
Once he revealed Matthew’s alias to Zac, he could also put all the blame on Matthew.
Hendrey didn’t have the heart to finish his food and he drove out of his mansion. Thirty minutes later, he arrived at the courtyard of Zac’s place.
Stepping into the yard, he noticed that the number of guards had doubled. Besides, the men assigned to patrol the house had the fit bodies of experts.
It seemed like Zac was wary about the culprit who broke his arm and got away without being caught. Thus, he doubled the number of guards.
Hendrey went straight to the living room. However, Zac wasn’t there.
The servant told him that Zac was receiving the infusion while resting in the bedroom.
As such, Hendrey walked to the bedroom and knocked on the door. “Zac, it’s me, Hendrey.”
