Chapter 1077 You’re a Bastard
"Why didn't I know..." Veronica stared at her phone, lost in thought.
Eleanor didn't expect Veronica to be utterly unaware of the matter. Veronica hung up the phone just as
she was about to inquire further.
In the room, Veronica threw back the covers and got up. She ran to the bathroom barefoot and opened
the door. "Matthew, are you..."
She peered inside and realized that Matthew was nowhere to be found. Immediately, she turned and
left the room, standing in the second-floor hallway. She looked at the living room but still no sign of
Matthew.
Finally, she looked towards the study room at the end of the corridor and quickly walked over, reaching
out to open the door.
To her surprise, Matthew sat quietly at the desk, engrossed in handling documents.
His calm demeanor made Veronica doubt herself. Maybe Eleanor was lying?

She stood outside, took out her phone and opened Twitter. As expected, the trending topic
#TheResurrectedMatthewDivorced surged to the top!
Veronica clicked on the trending news, and apart from some text, there was a video attached featuring
Matthew himself.
Before she could even open the video, Matthew stood up and walked over. "Why are you getting up so
early?"
His usual gentleness and soft-spoken manner made it seem as if they were still deeply in love. Yet this
despicable man had already publicly announced their divorce.
As the person involved, Veronica had absolutely no acknowledgment of this matter!
"What do you mean by 'so early?!'" Veronica raised her head and glared angrily at Matthew, hurling her
phone at him. "The news says we were divorced. What does that mean?!"
The phone flew through the air in a parabolic arc, but Matthew caught it gracefully with a gentle smile.
"You just got this phone after returning to the country, and it was not even half a month ago. It seems
like you don't appreciate it at all."
His tone was reproachful as if he did not take the divorce seriously.
He remained calm while Veronica fumed with anger. She quickly approached Matthew, clenched her
fist, and smashed his chest. "Answer me. What do you mean by getting divorced?"
Veronica was wholly bewildered and could not understand why Matthew would choose to divorce. Just
yesterday, they were entwined and affectionate.
"Ouch..." Matthew winced in pain, clutching his chest. "You're so fierce. Are you trying to murder your
husband?"
"What husband? You publicly announced our divorce, so now you're my ex-husband!" Her face turned
red with anger mixed with a sense of grievance.
His usual gentleness and soft-spoken manner made it seem as if they were still deeply in love. Yet this
despicable man had already publicly announced their divorce.

Seeing that she was outraged, Matthew could not tease her any longer.
He held her hand and wrapped his arm around her waist. "I'm sorry, I made the decision without
consulting you first."
Veronica furrowed her eyebrows, feeling confused.
"Didn't you mention that your dream was to become an actress? And you were worried that our
marriage would affect that. So, I decided to publicly announce our divorce so you can enter the
entertainment industry openly and pursue your career however you want."
When Matthew heard Veronica's words in the office yesterday, he genuinely wanted to fulfill her
dreams.
But because Veronica said they were married and entering the entertainment industry would subject
her to various criticisms, so he thought about how to solve the problem.
Returning to the Pinewoods Villa at night, he received information from Thomas about Flavian.
Suddenly, he understood that Flavian's unclear motives must have some hidden agenda.
If they publicly announced their divorce, it would allow Veronica to enter the entertainment industry
smoothly and protect her from Flavian's disturbances. Up to this point, he could not determine Flavian's
true intentions.
"What... What?"
