Her Billionaire Husband

Chapter 1308

After leaving the hospital, Veronica Murphy, formerly known as Ben, had planned to go straight back to Lothen. However, upon realizing that Matthew Kings was still working at the company, she decided to stop by One Piece Restaurant to buy some lunch before heading to Metric Technology.

To her surprise, as soon as she arrived at the entrance of Metric Technology, she saw a crowd gathered there. Some stood, while others sat at the company entrance, holding white banners with black letters written on them.

“Metric Technology is responsible for deaths.” “Metric Technology must be held accountable for the harm it has caused. We demand justice.”

“Shut down this corrupt company!” As Veronica Murphy looked at the people holding the white banners, her heart sank. She turned on the indicator lights and parked her car by the roadside.

Veronica Murphy knew that something unexpected had happened at Matthew Kings company, and she had arranged for Colt Mullen to investigate the situation. But why hadn’t Colt Mullen informed her about such a significant incident?

Sitting in the car, she took out her phone. Originally intending to call Matthew Kings, she ended up dialing Colt Mullen’s number. On the other end of the phone, Colt Mullen answered after two rings, “Boss?” Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.

Veronica Murphy furrowed her eyebrows slightly and asked calmly, “You’ve been investigating the current situation at Matt’s company recently. How is your investigation going?”

“I’ve investigated. However… I didn’t find anything unusual at Metric Technology. Everything seems normal,” the other side replied calmly. Listening to his words, Veronica Murphy pursed her lips, deep in thought. “Everything seems normal…”

Her speech was deliberate, with a hint of intrigue. On the other end of the phone, Colt Mullen sensed something was amiss and nervously touched his nose. “Um, everything is normal, boss. What’s wrong?”

Veronica Murphy’s expression turned cold as she tilted her head and looked at the group of people causing trouble over there. Her thin lips slightly parted as she said, ‘Colt Mullen, your have betrayed my trust.”

“Uh… Boss, what… what do you mean?” Colt Mullen started to panic. He was certain that Veronica Murphy must have discovered something.

“Although I am married to Matt, you should not forget your own identity. You have made me doubt your professionalism!” Veronica Murphy said, and then hung up the phone directly.

She took a deep breath, feeling somewhat. helpless. At that moment, her phone buzzed and the ringtone echoed loudly in the car. Looking at the phone screen with Colt Mullen’s number flashing, she hung up again.

Just as she ended the call, he called again. Veronica Murphy hung up once more, but he persistently kept calling. In the end, she gave him a chance and answered the phone.

“Boss, boss, listen to me, listen to me…” Colt Mullen explained nervously, “I… I made a mistake this time, a real mistake. President Kings told me not to tell you, afraid that it would worry you. He had good intentions for you, and that’s why I agreed. But there was absolutely no intention to betray you.”

Veronica Murphy replied, “To me, not following my orders is betrayal.”

“I…” Colt Mullen was speechless, and all the words that came to his mouth turned into a sigh in the end. “Boss, I’m sorry, I acted on my own.”

His intention was for the good of Veronica Murphy. They were a married couple, and Veronica Murphy investigated Matthew Kings because she cared about him. Matthew Kings asked Colt Mullen to keep it a secret from Veronica Murphy, hoping that she wouldn’t worry about it. That’s why he agreed to it.

“I’ll deduct half a month’s salary as a small punishment and a big lesson.” Veronica Murphy knew that Colt Mullen had good intentions, so how could she really be angry?

“Hahaha, alright, alright, forget half a month, even a whole month is fine.” Colt Mullen breathed a sigh of relief, and even through the phone, his joyful mood could be felt.

“This is the only time.”

Veronica Murphy emphasized, “If there’s another time, then we will have no future.”
