Chapter 610 Unwillingness to Part
However, Danie tugged Veronica’s hand and led her into the house. They sat in the bedroom as the
mother clung unwillingly to the daughter’s hand. “Roni, I can’t believe that you’re about to get married
soon. After your marriage, you’ve got to learn to be a good wife and behave maturely. You can’t stay a
childish one forever, got it?”
“Gosh, Mom! I know that I’ll always be a child in your eyes.”
Veronica hugged Danie affectionately and said coyly, “I’m not marrying off to somewhere distant and
I’ll be able toe home anytime I want. Besides, if you can’t bear to part with me, then move to the city
with me.”
“Your dad and I have lived in the countryside for our entire lives and we’re used to it here. We definitely
won’t be moving into the city. We just wish for a life of happiness for the two of you.”
“Mom, you’re the best!” Veronica lifted her head and noticed Danie’s reddened eyes. At that point,
Veronica could not help bursting intoughter. “Mom, I’m just getting married and it’s not a sad matter.
Why are you crying?”
As soon as Veronica said that, Danie smacked her on the back of her head. “You little brat! You were
such a tiny little thing when you were a child…”
Danie made a gesture with her hands. “I raised you tirelessly, and your dad and I worried so much
about you. Now that we’ve finally raised you into a wonderful woman, we haven’t even got to enjoy you
for more than two years and you’re about to marry into another family soon. I would of course be…” As
she spoke, there was a hitch to her voice and she cried, “Be sad to part with you.”
“I get it. I get it. I can’t bear to part with you guys either.”
Veronica was saddened to hear Danie’s words. “It’s fine. We live so close to each other, so I’d be able
toe home regrly. During New Year’s, we can alternate between celebrating with Matthew’s family
and you guys annually. I’ve spoken to Matthew about this.”
“Those are just minor issues.” Danie wiped her tears and got up to her desk before opening the drawer
to obtain a red box with worn-off paint.
Danie sat next to Veronica and opened the box. “I’ve got something for you.”
“What’s this?” Veronica was very curious as she was unsure of what was inside the red box.
“This is for you.” Danie opened the box and took out an item wrapped in red cloth from the box. It was
an emerald bracelet.
Though the bracelet appeared to be an antique, it looked as good as new. The emerald stones were
translucent in the air and the rity was perfect too. At a nce, it was definitely high-grade emeralds.
“Mom, I can’t believe that you’ve kept such a precious object to yourself.”
Veronica beamed widely. “Were you nning to keep this from me if I didn’t get married?”
In reality, Veronica did notck any jewelry as she had a bangle on her wrist which was gifted by
Hendrey. Although Hendrey’s identity was now rather fishy, she had a strong feeling that the bangle
would be a life-saver during a critical moment, so she kept it on all this while.
Besides, Elizabeth had also gifted Veronica a bracelet back then and it was passed on from the earlier
Kings’ generation. She found the bracelet too precious, so she did not wear it and kept it stored at
Twilight Condominium.
“What are you on about? This bracelet was gifted to me by your grandmother and you’re our only
daughter, so who else would this go to?”
“Hahaha… I was just joking.” Veronica revealed a knowing smile.
Shortly after that, Tony walked into the room and nced at Veronica before flinging the cigarette he was
puffing to the ground and putting it out. “Gosh, my daughter will no longer be part of our family after her
marriage. We should have given birth to a son.” Tony cracked a joke.
“Even if you had a son, Dad, I would remain your favorite child.” Veronica tilted her head while she
snuggled against Danie’s shoulders.

Danie red at Tony. “Stop talking nonsense in front of our precious daughter!”
