Chapter 691


    Crayson did not n on letting Thomas, an outsider, to join the hidden n from the very start.


    Veronica had her guesses, yet she had not expected Crayson to have a n in mind, which he kept


    from her.


    At the thought of being all alone upon joining the hidden n, she was touched. If it was not for


    Matthew''s help, it would have been difficult for her to go against the whole n and extricate from


    them.


    "Yes, Master." Destiny nodded with solemnity. "Will the leader be mad if we keep her in the dark?"


    "This brat has always had her opinion on everything since young. It''ll be an issue if she knows about it."


    He heaved a sigh and looked at the ''unconscious'' Veronica. In a serious tone, he said, "Besides, she


    lost her babies after returning to the n. She''s not going to stay here for a long time anyway."


    "I''m impressed, Master." Destiny admired him from the bottom of her heart.


    Thomas was Veronica''s only pir of strength, yet they lost him. Thus, it rendered her escape difficult


    and it was basically driving her to a dead end.


    Still...


    "Won''t she hate you?" Destiny questioned.


    Frowning, he leaned against the seat and sighed. It took him a couple of moments to reply. "So what if


    she hates me? What else can I do? It''s for the sake of our n."


    "It must be hard for you, Mr. Crayson. You''ve been alone for a long time for the sake of the n. You


    didn''t get married and devoted your whole life for us instead. You''re a great man."N?velDrama.Org holds ? this.


    Regardless of Crayson''s method, his devotion for the n alone was admirable.


    He kept quiet, but the ''unconscious'' Veronica felt heartache. Ever since she was little, he looked after


    and pampered her as if she was his biological daughter.


    Although she called him an old geezer at times, she considered him as her family and her grandfather.


    However, who would have expected such turns of events?


    She was in a dilemma right now. Should she resent Crayson, or be grateful to him, or praise his loyalty


    for the hidden n?


    The more she thought about it, the scarier it was.


    Fortunately, Veronica took notice of his reaction when she drank the water. Otherwise, she would not


    have known his true thoughts.


    Even so, she reasoned his actions as a result of his sense of responsibility, that he would never hurt


    her no matter what. After all, she grew up under his care and there was affection in between.


    She pretended to be asleep along the way. When the car finally stopped, she heard people talking and


    the unconscious Thomas


    was then handed over to someone else.


    Crayson and the others hopped onto the car and they continued their journey. After a long while,


    someone carried her aboard a ship before locking her up in a room.


    Lying in bed, she dared not move a muscle in a worry that there was someone else in the room.


    Following the long wait was the ship''s departure.


    As she heard the vague chattering from outside, she made a rough guess that there should be at least


    twenty people onboard. Suddenly, nature called.


    She opened her eyes slowly. After confirming that there was no one in the room, she got out of the bed


    and headed for the restroom. To her luck, the room came with a restroom. Otherwise, they could have


    found out that she was awake.


    After finishing her business, she flushed the toilet and scurried to the bed to pretend to be asleep. Not


    only did she imitate her previous posture, she made sure the creases on the nket were the same.


    Creak.


    Soon, the door opened and someone came into the room.


    "It''ll take about three to five days to arrive at the hidden n. She can''t always be sleeping, though."
