She joked, laughing at her turbulent fate and how unfair it was to her.
"Maybe this is just a test." Next to her, Matthew consoled her, but his phone started ringing instead.
First, it was a call from Thomas and Troy, then Skyler, Caleb, Miguel, and the others phoned him, desperate to clarify the news.
Of course, Veronica's phone didn't have time to rest, either.
Shirley, Ivana, Larry, Stephen, Sasha, partners of Vincere Games, and the others called her one after the other.
Just by picking up calls and answering them the best they could, they spent more than an hour until Veronica gave up and turned off her phone. Eventually, Matthew did the same.
At first, they thought that they could have some peace to themselves, but who would have guessed that Skyler, Miguel, and Thomas came knocking after a while?
"Goddammit, Matt. Both of you are progressing very quickly!" After Skyler entered, he didn't even bother with the pleasantries before he started grumbling, "I just found out that Roni is pregnant with your child, and you already have your marriage certificate. You're hiding everything from us. Do you even regard us as your buddies?"
"This is much better. I'm relieved to know that both of you have patched things up and are doing well now," Miguel lamented, pacing to Veronica's side and shaking his head with a smile. "Despite not being directly involved in your relationship, I was still somewhat tortured when the both of you were on terrible terms with each other."
Previously when Veronica and Matthew suddenly broke up, Elizabeth wanted to introduce Veronica to Miguel, and Veronica had agreed to it just to spite Matthew.
That was a difficult time for Miguel.
Veronica couldn't help but laugh. "Miggy, I… I'm sorry." She flashed him a mischievous smile even though she felt highly guilty.
"That's not fair, Roni. Do you only have Miggy in your eyes?" Skyler snorted. "If it weren't me who told Miggy about your pregnancy, he wouldn't even know about it."
"Yes, that's true." Veronica knew that after she had arrived at the hospital to save her baby, it was Skyler who had contacted the best doctor to help her with her baby, and that was why her baby's life was saved.
