Chapter 694
That way, Crayson could shake off Matthew, who was a burden to him. It was because Matthew and
Veronica''s rtionship would make her linger on Bloomstead, which would be a drawback to her once
she took over the position as the leader ofthe hidden n.
Matthew was not an easy opponent and he might be a threat considering his own power. Hence,
Crayson had racked his brain and thought of separating the both of them.
It was no wonder that Crayson was opposed to their rtionship. However, Veronica insisted on
staying together with Matthew, and he had no choice but to agree on it.
Thinking about it, everyone was wreathed in smiles on their wedding day, except for Crayson, who had
a long face.
In fact, he already had ns to eliminate Matthew so as to cut the ties between her and Bloomstead.
After that, as Destiny had mentioned, they would bring Veronica''s kids over here once she secured her
position in the n. Of course, her adoptive parents—Tony and Danie—would be here too when the
timees.
They were too old and too young to protest anyway, hence they were seen as a pawn in chess.
This is the property of N?-velDrama.Org.
What a fabulous n that is.
"Thomas is an outsider. He cannote and these are the rules.
I''m worried that you might oppose it, so I added some drugs. No matter how I put it, it''s because this
old man is afraid of you. You''re stubborn, and it won''t do anything good when we get into a fight."
Veronica snorted and smiled sarcastically. His ''reasonable'' exnation truly impressed her.
Crayson and Destiny''s conversation kept ringing in her ears. At that moment, the way Veronica looked
at him waspletely unfamiliar.
Perchance, it was her first time seeing his true colors. Thus, her innocence and ignorance were to
me for.
It is because of one thing—my foolishness!
It was not an exaggeration to say that she was a fool. Fortunately, Matthew was still alive and she did
not have to live under the shadows of self-reproach.
Then, she rose to her feet and stretched her body. She turned around and left the room without sparing
a look at Crayson.
Opening the door, she stood at the corridor to survey the area at which both sides of it were rooms.
The luxurious, white shipprised four levels and a deck.
She loitered around, going to every floor to observe every nook and cranny while calcting the
number of people onboard. There were twenty-eight people in total, including the crew members and
captain.
Some of them owned the particr features of the locals in
Castron—blonde hair, blue eyes, and well-defined face. Meanwhile, the others looked simr to the
people in Bloomstead.
Veronica could still remember the content written in the ''Secret Affair of the Hidden n'', the book she
and Matthew found in the underground chamber. ording to the book, the hidden n was a part of
Hayberry in the Destorians'' map.
Wars were prevalent everywhere a century ago. Thus, the hidden n escaped in order to seek refuge
from war. In the end, they found and resided in a utopia-like ce from then until today.
Therefore, their looks were no different from the Destorians. The only difference was the height—they
were tallerpared to the Destorians.
"Young Lord."
"Greetings, Young Lord."
"Young Lord."
Every single time Veronica passed by them, they would greet her as the young lord respectfully. The
unfamiliar addressment made her feel exotic and out of ce. Of course, she could feel the sarcasm
more than anything.
"Veronica, you must be starving. Would you like to have something to eat?" asked Destiny, who walked
to her side.
Veronica nced at her coldly. "I have no appetite."
She then looked back before heading toward the deck.
At that moment, Destiny handed over a coat. "The wind is strong. You should wear this. The
temperature dips during the night and it''ll be chilly out there."
