Chapter 455
Chapter 455 It’s a Wrap!
“This? It was given to me by a friend.” When Veronica noticed the odd expression on Stephen’s face, she
quickly followed up, “Does this bangle have an interesting backstory or something?” “I have seen it
before. It—”
Stephen seemed like he was about to say something, but when he raised his gaze from the bangle to
meet Veronica’s expectant eyes, he immediately looked away while he shook his head. “It looks familiar,
but I can’t remember where I saw it.”
After his eyes darted away, he tilted his head to look out the window. His change of expression in that
split second was all she needed to confirm that the bangle had a story behind it. Her suspicion of
Hendrey only deepened with that.
Deciding she didn’t want to ask any more questions, she changed the subject. “Crazy, I will go to the
crew earlier tomorrow. Remind me of things to watch out for before the shoot, okay?”
“Don’t be so nervous. Just rx,” Larry replied, not knowing that she only mentioned that to change the
topic. The car finally arrived at the entrance of the hospital not long after. As she got out of the car, Larry
also followed suit while asking, “How long will you be here for? I will wait for you if you will be quick.”
“There’s no need. See you!” Veronica waved and walked in front of Larry before she pointed at his
cheek. “Get in the car quickly. For your information, you are not wearing a mask, yet you’re out and
about. Aren’t you afraid you will see scandals about you tomorrow?”
“Alright. I am off, then. Call me if something happens.”
Larry then turned around to get back into his car. Stephen was still in the car when he rolled down the
window and waved at Veronica. “Bye!”
She hummed with a smile. “See you tomorrow.” Larry then started the car and slowly drove off. After they
left, Veronica, with her high heels on, turned around and walked into the hospital.
As soon as she arrived at the entrance to Yvonne’s ward, the first person she saw was Crayson sitting on
the bench in the corridor. He was still in his security uniform as he slept leaning against the bench.
She immediately felt her nose burn as her heart seemed to ache. Because she had too much to handle,
she had told him early this morning to keep an eye on Yvonne in case something were to happen to
Yvonne.
However, she didn’t think he would be here all day. “Crayson?” Veronica stepped forward and gently
patted him on the shoulder. “Were you keeping watch here the entire day? Have you eaten?”
Although he was always hale and hearty, it was an undeniable fact that he was an aged man. She
couldn’t help feeling guilty and remorseful for making a man his age go out of his way to do so much for
her.
He eventually opened his eyes but when he saw her, his gaze turned into a re as a frown appeared
on his face. “Little brat, it’s a good thing you still remember toe. Your master might die of hunger if
you were another secondte.”
Upon hearing that, Veronica knew for sure that he hadn’t had his meal. “You haven’t eaten?” She thought
for a second before smilingly offered, “Let’s have something together, then. I haven’t eaten as well.”
In fact, she wasn’t hungry at all. She only wanted to keep himpany while he ate. “Aye.” He yawned,
putting on a reluctant expression. “Can you stay here a little longer? I am going in to check on Yvonne.”
After she informed him, she headed straight into the ward, where Yvonne had her child in her arms as
she yed with the boy. “Oh! There you are, Roni!”
Yvonne’s face immediately erupted in joy when she saw Veronica, and she hurriedly walked to Veronica
while carrying the baby. “Look! He is smacking his lips in his sleep. Isn’t it adorable?!”
Seeing her motherly love overflow, Veronica finally felt a little more relieved about her friend. She then
put down her bag and reached out to carry the boy. “Come. Let me hug him.”
“Here you go, but be careful.” Yvonne carefully passed the baby to Veronica, and thetter began to rock
him gently. “Even though he is still a newborn, his facial features look quite simr to yours,” she
commented.
“He is my son. Of course he looks like me.” Yvonne stood with her hands akimbo before she turned
around and walked toward the bed. She let out a sigh as she plopped down on it. “I am lucky I have a
maternity matron here to apany me. I would probably be worn out otherwise. It just doesn’t make
sense for anyone to raise children. It is too tiring.”
As Yvonneined, she dropped her whole body on the bed.
“Thank you, Roni. Mr. Crayson has been keeping watch by the door the whole day. I only told him to go
home at night.”
Yvonne had repeatedly told Crayson to go home when night fell, but he had rejected every time. Left with
no choice, she made sure to watch him go into the elevator before she went back into her ward.
Unbeknownst to her, he hade out of the elevator again after she went into the room, and had quietly
stayed outside to keep guard.
Veronica only replied, “Don’t worry about it. He happens to be on leave today.” She didn’t want Yvonne to
feel burdened.

“Still, I feel bad about it. After all, Mr. Crayson isn’t young anymore and yet, he has to take care of me. It
pricks my conscience. But again, I am getting discharged tomorrow.”
“Discharged?”
Her sudden mention of dischargement surprised Veronica.
And so, she told everything that happened today to Yvonne before adding regretfully, “That is why I can’t
pick you up to leave the hospital tomorrow. I am really sorry.”
“Oh my God, you are starring in a movie? Am I friends with a future best actress?”
As though she was the one who was going to film tomorrow, Yvonne was ted after hearing Veronica
bring it up.
Veronica didn’t know whether tough or cry at her friend’s antics. “It is just a small and unimportant
supporting role. Stop with your nonsense. Alright, get some rest soon. I have to go back to prepare. I am
going to the filming location early tomorrow morning.”
She saw the other two bodyguards guarding the corridor when she entered the ward just now.
Needless to say, Yvonne’s father must have been the one who arranged these mercenaries to stay by
Yvonne.
But in order to not make it too conspicuous, they only stood by the corridor instead of sitting directly
outside the ward’s door.
Furthermore, they probably were bigger than a team of two who could work in shifts. It would be safe to
leave Yvonne to them.
“Okay then. I wish you sess tomorrow!” Yvonne cheered Veronica on.
She got up to take her child and carefully held him in her arms. Right about then, the boy woke up and
started crying.
“Goodness, my little nugget. Why are you awake again?” Yvonne then waved at Veronica. “Hurry up and
leave. I need to coax my honeybun.”
Veronica couldn’t help butugh before she turned around and walked out of the ward.
She walked up to one of the mercenaries in the corridor and informed him, “You must be extra vignt
these days. Yvonne may be in danger these two days.”
Conrad is such a scary man. We have to be careful.
“Yes, Miss Murphy.” The mercenary, who was already familiar with Victoria, nodded and said nothing
more.
Afterward, she brought Crayson for ramen, and then some alcohol before she finally went home.
After returning home, she had a video conference with the person-in-charge at Vincere Games. It went
on untilte night but when it was done, she began to search for action movies for reference.
Veronica only went to sleep in the dead of the night, and then woke up the next day to repeat her training
yesterday.
Exhausted, she went home to take a shower and after changing into fresh clothes, she set off to the
filming location.
When she found Larry among the crew, she asked him for his advice on things she had to pay attention
to.
