However, if Xavier became “brothers” with Veronica, their rtionship might improve, and she might co

He let out an awkwardugh. “Haha! Sure, why not? From now on, I‘ve gained another sister.”
“Sister? Oh, by
the way, do you know Melissa? I met her when I went to Almeida this time. Your sister has a really good
personality and is quite likable.” Veronica subtly changed the topic to talk about Melissa.

Xavier nodded in agreement. “Well, yes. Melissa is very nice, and we have a good rtionship.” As he
said that, he used his foot to open the trash can on the side and tossed the ring in.
“Hey, what are you doing?” Seeing that, Veronica couldn‘t help but be shocked. “Why are you throwing
the ring away? It‘s very expensive, you know.”
“It‘s not that expensive actually. I have no use for it.”
“What do you mean? You can at least keep it and give it to other girls.”
A ring was a great tool for flirting with girls, so it was a pity to just throw it away. More importantly, it mu
st‘ve cost a pretty penny
“I can‘t give it away.”
“Why not?”
“Your name is engraved on it.”
“My name?” Veronica wrinkled her eyebrows and looked sideways at the trash can next to the bed, feel
ing her heart ache.
After giving it some thought, she suggested, “How about you sell it to me for cheap?”
“Sell it to you for cheap? How?” Xavier was a little puzzled by her words.
“You‘re going to throw it away anyway, so just sell it to me for cheap. How much did you buy it? I‘ll give
you an estimate.” Veronica blinked her bright eyes, her expression expectant.
instantly: Xavier understood what Veronica meant, and after thinking about it, he ad.
“I boughu it for 99,000, but if you want it, I‘ll sell it to you for 9,900.”
“9.900: That‘s so expensive! Bro, how
could you charge me that much for something you‘re about to throw away? As siblings, the least you co
uld do is give me a discount.”
“Then how much do you want it for?”
“Round it off,”
“9:000?”
“Ugh. Shouldn‘t it be 5,000 if you round it off?”
9,900 rounded off is 5,000? Her way of thinking is... odd. Xavier would have never thought that he woul
d be rejected after his first proposal to a woman in his life, and that he would sell the engagement ring
he had prepared instead of giving it away.
“Fine, I‘ll sell it for 5,000.”
Xavier picked up the ring from the trash
can and handed it to her. “I‘ll give you the ring. You can give me the 5,000 once you‘re back in Bloomst
ead.”
“Hehe, of course.”
Ignoring the dangling needle on the back of her hand, Veronica took the ring and excitedly began to ex
amine it. “It‘s so shiny.”
Now that she had bought a ring that originally cost 99,000 for 5,000, she could earn a huge profit after
pawning it off. Wonderful. Absolutely wonderful. What a steal.
Veronica took the ring out of the box and squinted at it, only to see that her name was indeed engraved
on the inside of the ring. Although the words were small and not that legible, she could barely recogniz
e it as her name.
“Bro, you‘re the best!” Veronica was overjoyed.
“I‘m d you like it.”
“Of course I like it. I‘m in love with it.” As long as it can be sold for money, anything‘s good. Veronica did
not try on the ring, but carefully stuffed it into the ring box and ced it on the table instead, before she
continued chatting with Xavier.
Not long after that, Matthew walked in carrying a thermos. His harsh gaze swept over
Veronica and Xavier, only to see them chatting happily as Veronica clutched a heart Whaped ring box i
n her hands with an unconceble expression of joy on her face. Al that sight, his face twisted in disple
asure.
With a thud, Matthew ced the thermos on the table and ordered, “Eat.”
“Hehe, thank you, Matthew.” Veronica smiled at
Matthew. As she was in a good mood, she subconsciously ignored Matthew‘s unhappy expression. She
got up and leaned on the bed, reaching for the thermos.
However, Xavier intervened. “Let me feed you.”
“No, I‘ll do it myself. I‘m not used to people feeding me.” The moment Veronica unscrewed the lid of the
thermos, she was met with a delicious aroma. Using a spoon, she scooped up a spoonful of porridge a
nd briefly blew on it before stuffing it into her mouth. “It’s so delicious.”
Compared to the miserable past few days, it was a gift from heaven to be able to eat delicious food aga
in.
“Phew… it‘s a little hot.” Sheughed and continued to eat with her head down.
On the sofa, Matthew stared at Veronica with
his cold eyes before he finally took his phone and typed a message to Thomas. “Give Young Master Xav

“What‘s wrong?” Noticing that Xavier did not look well, Veronica immediately became concerned.
“Something came up at thepany, so I have to go back to Bloomstead early. I‘ll wait for you there.”
“Okay, okay, you
can go back first. I still have Matthew here, so don‘t worry. I‘ll be fine.” Veronica assured with a wave of h

smile.
Xavier looked back at Veronica uneasily. “Although you‘re Old Mrs. Kings‘ god granddaughter and
Matthew‘s sister in name, you‘re still a girl. You have to be careful sometimes so that people won‘t start
“Gosh, I know, I know. I‘ll be fine.” Veronica nodded profusely, her tone turning impatient.
Of course, she knew

With one sentence, each of them fell into their own thoughts. However, Matthew thought that Veronica h
