Billionaire's Match (Khloe and Nick Hunt) novel Chapter 1007

Winnie nodded, indicating she understood.

After leaving the police station, she immediately called Lucas.

As if he had been expecting it, he answered almost instantly.

Though he wasn't physically present, his subordinates had been reporting the situation to him in real time.

Khloe had personally asked him for help—there was no way he would allow anything to go wrong for Winnie.

But what Winnie wanted to ask about wasn't anything else—it was Veronica.

In the original plan, Veronica hadn't even been part of it. So when Mrs. Olson accused her earlier, she had been genuinely surprised. But this couldn't possibly be a coincidence.

Lucas gave a faint smile, neither confirming nor denying. "They're all enemies anyway. Taking care of them together just saves effort. Besides, she brought it on herself."

When Mrs. Olson arranged for those men to humiliate Winnie, Veronica had been right there. The mother and daughter were equally malicious.

What they didn't know was that the ones contacting those men were actually Lucas's people.

Lucas was no saint—he preferred to use evil to fight evil. Without hesitation, he had his men replace Winnie's photo with Veronica's.

It was also a precaution, ensuring Winnie's safety in case anything went wrong. If Veronica hadn't foolishly followed them, how would she have ended up in someone else's hands?

In truth, the drone had captured Veronica's movements as well. He could have stepped in to help her. But he chose not to interfere with the consequences of others' actions.

"Then… what happened to Veronica? The police said those men are missing now?"

"I wouldn't know. They probably caught wind of something and fled ahead of time with her."

Lucas's voice was so indifferent it sent a chill down the spine.

"Then… Veronica…"

As much as Winnie despised her, the thought of what those men intended to do still made her shudder. As a woman, she couldn't help but feel a wave of unease.
