Chapter 1165 Liam Wants to Meet Me
The moment Veronica heard it, she knew that Tiffany had already hooked up with Liam.
Despite her initial desire to refuse, she eventually nodded and said, "Okay. When is it?"
They would have to meet sooner orter; avoiding it would not solve any problems.
Furthermore, meeting them now would give her ess to the hidden n''s most recent updates,
effectively killing two birds with one stone.
"It''s tonight. Do you need me to pick you up?"
"Okay." Veronica agreed quickly and without hesitation.
In this awkward circumstance, she shouldn''t have to interact with Liam, but Veronica was a rebel by
nature. The more Crayson and the others tried to keep her under control, the more she wanted to
rebel.
Because...
She had her own ns.
Matthew had said not to trust anyone, only to trust oneself.
So, Veronica chose to enter the tiger''s den.
At lunchtime, a few people sat at the dining table, and Veronica was savoring the lunch prepared by
Matthew. She noticed that Matthew had gotten better at cooking.
This wless and perfect man was prepared to give everything up for her—even to be beneath her.
As she pondered Matthew''s "sacrifice," she started feeling increasingly guilty.
"By the way, I''m going out tonight for a while."
She picked up a piece of roasted squash, took a bite, and lowered her gaze, saying, "Liam wants to
meet me."
Moments ago, the sound of a fork sporadically scraping the porcin bowl could still be heard. But
then the dining room fell silent.
Veronica tried to keep her head down, but she could feel the hot gaze on her. She pretended not to see
anything as she calmly continued to eat her meal.
Crayson''s face darkened, and he subconsciously nced at Destiny sitting across from him. Before he
could speak, Mateo couldn''t help but speak up.
"You''re meeting Liam? Don''t you know that he wants to pursue you, Roni?"
He was straightforward.
Veronica took a piece of baked fish and ced it in her bowl, then removed the fish bones and casually
stated, "I know."
"You know that, and you''re still going to see him?"
His voice suddenly rose, and it was clear that he was not happy. He looked at Veronica like she was an
idiot.
"Anthony and a few others that I know areing as well," Veronica exined.
As she spoke, Veronica deliberately nced at Crayson and found that he visibly rxed after hearing
her words.
"Grandpa, aren''t you going to say anything?" Mateo looked at Crayson and waited for him to berate
Veronica, but he didn''t say anything for a while.
"She has her own opinions, so no matter what I say is useless," Crayson continued as he ate.
"Fine. I''m going too," Mateo Elrod said.
"No!"
"No!"
Mateo started to speak, but before he could finish, Crayson and Destiny both spoke up, ruthlessly
rejecting him.
Hearing that, Mateo wasn''t sure what to say.
His face fell silent, and he continued to form the word "go" with his mouth as he zed over and stared
at Destiny. Slowly but surely, his face darkened.
"You… you… Forget it!"
Realizing that it would be pointless to say anything to them, he turned to Veronica for help. "Roni, can
you take me with you? I promise to behave and not cause any trouble."
"No, it''s fine. I''m bringing Iron Pir along."
He was her husband, so she would bring him, of course.
"He''ll be following a fool but he can''t even trante. Can he be more helpful than I am?"
A fool?!
That caused Veronica to tremble a little bit while holding the fork. She rolled her eyes and thought, I''m
not the fool here. You and your family are!
"They all speak English, so there''s no need for you to be the trantor." Veronica finished her
sentence, set her fork down, and dered, "I''m full. I''m going to do my revision now."
"Eh? Roni, don''t go. Roni!"
Mateo called out to Veronica, but she didn''t even turn her head, leaving him feeling very disappointed. N?velDrama.Org holds ? this.
