I checked 3 different computer with Windows 10/11 and could only find one copy of the Verdana font. This would indicate that the e-book editor (not the tag editor) is using Verdana but your Preview pane is not.
As for the editor code view vs preview? When I forced the same font in both, the preview matches the code view. As the one that you are showing in the code view matches Verdana but the one shown in Preview does not, that suggests that you do not have Verdana selected as the sans-serif font in Preview (if you prefer, you can set Verdana for both serif and sans-serif). The basic editor preferences only allows one font. Have you set your preferences for the Preview pane as seen in one of the images in
message #5 in this thread?
I'm not sure where you got Verdana (MS) from in the font names in the Preview configuration. When I browsed to the Verdana font, it just says Verdana as the font name. It is possible that the font embedded in your file is not the Verdana font supplied by Microsoft but a knockoff version. If you look in the Fonts folder inside the Windows folder, you should find the 4 Verdana files (regular, italic, bold, bold-italic). Opening one of those with Windows Font Viewer will show a font name of Verdana and a version of 5.33. Digging deeper into the font information says that it was copyrighted in 2016 by Microsoft.
You might want to save a backup of the epub, unembed Verdana and see what it does.
