    Chapter 543 Seal His Memory


    When she finished, she didn’t see Crayson being surprised. On the contrary, he was unusually


    calm. Crayson took a cigarette case out of his pocket to pull out a cigarette and put it in his mouth. Then,


    he lit it and took a pull.


    In the countryside, he always liked to carry around a tobo stick and smoke leaves. However, in the


    city, he had subtly changed his habit. After that, Crayson let out a long breath. “Alright. You guys aren’t


    meant to be.”


    In the apartment earlier, when Crayson was talking to Matthew and Veronica, he noticed that Veronica’s


    eyes were flickering and she was seemingly plotting something. He knew it but didn’t say it out loud.


    Crayson had long expected that Veronica woulde over to talk to him about Matthew, but he didn’t


    expect she would bring the news of the twins too.


    “Whether it’s meant to be is anyone’s guess.” Veronica leaned on the chair and looked sideways as she


    lamented, “The hidden n is in crisis, so I don’t want to drag him down with me.” “Then you guys aren’t


    meant to be.”


    “It’s different.” Veronica shook her head. During mid-summer, the scorching sun was like fire. Only the


    breeze brought a trace of coolness and messed up Veronica’s bangs.


    She lifted her pale and delicate fingers to tuck a strand of hair behind her ear as she said, “As long as I’m


    alive, I can still continue our fate.”


    “Hmph!” Crayson snorted coldly and stopped dwelling on the topic. “What are you going to do now?”


    “I want to leave Bloomstead as soon as possible and go to a ce where no one knows me. I will give


    birth to the children and settle down. Then, I will return to the hidden n.”


    I must deal with the matter of the hidden n. I can’t hide from that duty forever. However, the babies in


    my womb are almost two months old, so I should be fine in hiding for another eight months. At that time,


    I will safely deliver to the children and ask someone to take care of them, and I can return to the hidden


    n without worries.

    “Will Matthew let you go?”


    Crayson took off his security cap and scratched his head. Then, he snorted with his hat on again, clearly


    not believing Matthew would let Veronica go.


    “With how he feels about me, he will surely not let me go. However…” She paused mid-sentence as her


    eyelids lifted. Then, she looked at Crayson with those clear and watery eyes. “If he forgets about me, he


    won’t stop me.”


    “What do you mean?”


    Crayson suddenly couldn’t understand Veronica’s thoughts.


    Veronica blinked with her long, thickshes. The slightly drooping eyelids hid the shimmering gxy that


    appeared in her eyes.


    However, her eyes became dull again in a blink.


    After a long while, she raised her head and said, “I was fortunate enough to read a book called…” She


    slowed down while looking up at Crayson and continued, “Secret Affair of the Hidden n.”


    After saying the book’s title, Veronica kept staring at Crayson as she tried to get some clues from his


    subtle expression.


    As expected, Crayson frowned, and there was a surprise in his eyes. “Where did you read it?”


    “It doesn’t matter. However, it is clearly stated in the book that one of the hidden ns can seal a


    person’s memory.”


    Some things were coincidental, yet they seemed to be fate.


    For example, when Veronica first went to the Kings Residence and identally fell into the underground


    chamber, she coincidentally found the book Secret Affair of the Hidden n in the chamber study.


    At that time, she was lost and tired in the chamber. So, she saw the book and curiously read it. Then,


    she just saw the record about the hidden technique used to seal the memory.


    From time to time, Veronica wondered if this was God’s arrangement.


    Crayson held the cigarette while taking several puffs until the cigarette was exhausted. Then, he pressed


    the cigarette butt into the ashtray and put it out.


    “Answer my question,” Crayson repeated.


    Veronica knew Crayson was very concerned about the hidden n, so she didn’t hide it and stated,


    “There is an underground chamber in the Kings Residence. Once, I broke into the chamber with Matthew


    by mistake and identally stumbled upon it in the study.”


    “The Kings Residence underground chamber? In which year was the chamber built? How old is that


    book?”


    “The underground pce is at least a hundred years old. The Secret Affairs of Hidden n is a blue-


    skinned book; I think it is an isted copy left over from thest century.”


    After she finished, Crayson leaned on the seat with his arms around his chest and pondered.


    After a long while, he murmured, “The hidden n has always been very secretive, and not many people


    know about the n’s existence. Why would Secret Affairs of Hidden n appear in the Kings


    Residence underground chamber? Could someone in the hidden n be in the Kings Family?”


    “What is the significance of having people in the hidden n in the Kings Family?”


    Veronica noticed Crayson’s solemn expression and knew this was no trivial matter.


    “It depends on what their level is.” Then, Crayson sighed and waved, “Forget it. Let’s put this matter


    aside for now. I will investigate it after this. However, you said you want to seal Matthew’s memory. Are


    you sure about this?”


    “Yes.”


    Veronica nodded without thinking.


    “Won’t you regret it?”


    “He has saved my life many times since I met him. Hence, I owe him a lot. At first, I felt peace when he


    saved me; I even felt he was kind and worthy of my trust. However, as he saved and sacrificed for me


    more, I feel that this is a debt that I can’t repay, which makes me uneasy.”


    Love required mutual sacrifice.


    Veronica wanted to do a lot of things for Matthew. However, she could not do so.


    Since she had met Matthew for more than a year, he had repeatedly taken risks for her. Hence, the


    kindness she owed him would be difficult to repay in her lifetime.


    I can’t even repay him now, but the debt is infinitely stacked!


    In the end, the debt had reached the limit she could handle, and Veronica could no longer ept


    Matthew’s sacrifices.


    “That’s one way to do it. However, not everyone can seal memories. Let me know after you think about it,


    and I’ll help you contact someone that can do it as soon as possible.”


    “I don’t need more time. I’ve made up my mind.”


    Veronica was resolute in her decision.


    That stubbornness wasforting to Crayson yet heartbreaking.


    He looked at Veronica meaningfully and didn’t say anything.


    In the end, he just nodded. Then, he got up and left.


    After he left, Veronica sat alone under the umbre in the rest area for a long time.


    Ring, Ring—


    Her phone in her pocket rang suddenly.


    She took out her cell phone and saw the call was from Matthew.


    Veronica hesitated for a moment before she answered the call. “Matt?”


    On the other end of the phone, Matthew asked in a gentle tone, “Are you done shopping? Why haven’t


    you responded to messages I sent to you?”


    Listening to his warm voice, Veronica only felt a dull ache in her heart, and she felt heartbroken for him.


    “Yeah, I’m done. I’ll go back right away.”


    “Okay. I’ll wait for you at home.”


    …


    After half an hour, Veronica returned to the Twilight Condominium and walked into the living room to see


    Matthew sitting on the couch.


    When the man heard the sound, he turned to look at the entrance. Veronica was leaning against the wall


    with one hand and carrying a lot of bags in the other arm while standing there to change her shoes.


    With a tired look, she pouted at him and said, “Jeez, Ruka can’t stop shopping. I’m about to die of


    exhaustion.”
