Chapter 619 Keeping Veronica Safe
There was another uncle of Matthew’s on Conrad’s table, who toasted with the couple and landed his gaze onto Conrad.
While the couple was holding the glasses in their hands, Matthew piped up, “Uncle Conrad, thanks for carving the time to attend our wedding.”

“Grandma, it’s been a long time since I’ve seen you this happy.” Veronica gave her a hug. “Mrs. Coleman will take you home. It must’ve been a hectic day for you.”
“Alright, alright.” The grinning old woman nodded vigorously before leaving the hotel with Yura.
The newly wed couple walked to the door to watch Elizabeth enter the car and leave. Finally, their hearts sank down from their throats.
Skyler came to them and the ever-breezy man was wearing a solemn face. “Will she be in danger?”
“Conrad doesn’t have the guts to hurt her,” reassured Matthew, who looked across in a distance while clasping onto Veronica’s hand.
“Why?” Skyler could not follow.
“He hasn’t revealed himself in public, but that doesn’t mean that he’s dead. As long as he’s still somewhere, Conrad won’t be able to lay a finger on her.”
“But why is he doing this to you?”
Hearing that, Veronica glanced at Skyler like he was an idiot. “Of course it’s because Matt’s getting in his way to the ‘throne’.”
“Woah. Roni, you’re getting smarter!” Skyler lifted his eyebrow and smiled, but his eyes were full of distress.
When they returned to the parlor, Crayson and Destiny came up to them. Matthew’s footsteps came to a halt as he turned sideways to face Veronica with a smile. “Head on with Master Crayson and Destiny first. Good girl.”
