Chapter 739 The Reunion
Crayson, Veronica, and Mateo walked to the massive gate. Then, Crayson took the initiative as he
pressed the doorbell to announce their arrival. The gate of the vi slowly opened, and a maid
appeared before them. “Do you have an appointment?”
The maid was speaking thenguage of the hidden n dialect, but Veronica could understand her well
because she was wearing a miniature earphone that automatically tranted her words. Even now,
Veronica couldn’t help but feel touched that Matthew had given her such a practical and useful gift.
“Oh, it’s you, Mr. Elrod. Doe in. Madam has been expecting you.” The maid was very excited when
she got a good look at Crayson. She hurriedly opened the gate and invited the three in, but she kept
staring at Veronica when thetter entered. It was difficult to ignore such a piercing stare, and she felt
somewhat uneasy by the attention.
Hayley was her mother. Since the maid was under Hayley’s employment, it was only natural that she
had guessed Veronica’s identity when she saw the heavy resemnce between them.
Sure enough, the maid walked up to Crayson and whispered, “She must be Madam’s daughter, right?
She looked exactly like Madam when she was young.”
“Of course,” Crayson answered.
“Wow, time really flies. She has grown so big in the blink of an eye. I’m sure Madam will be very happy
to see herter. No wonder she ordered the chef to prepare lunch today.”
Judging from their friendly chat, she quickly deduced that the maid was well acquainted with Crayson.
After they entered the vi’s hall, the maid trotted over to the sofa in the living room and spoke
respectfully, “Madam, Mr. Waylen, and Mateo are here.” The maid deliberately skipped Veronica, most
likely because she wanted to give Hayley a surprise.
The woman sitting on the sofa jerked and looked back at them. Only then did Veronica realize…
The nearly fifty-year-old Hayley was dressed in a ck, form-fitting dress. She wore her long hair in a
neat bun at the back of her head, only essorized with a zed hairpin. Herplexion was fair. It
also should be noted that she maintained her skin and body very well for her age. The temperament of
the nobledy exuded from her body effortlessly, making her look dignified and charismatic.
Meanwhile, Veronica was leisurely andid back. The personalities of the mother-daughter duo were
as different as day and night.
Hayley stared at Veronica intensely. Finally, she carefully ced the book in her hand and slowly
walked toward Veronica. “A-Are you Veronica?” Hayley asked with fluency.
Faced with Hayley’s approach, Veronica instinctively took an uneasy step back. She merely regarded
Hayley calmly without any emotions in her eyes.
Or perhaps, Veronica was excellent at concealing her emotions, and it would be challenging for most
people to tell how she was feeling right now.
“Roni, she’s your mother, Hayley.”
Crayson knew that Veronica was a bit ufortable by the unfamiliar Hayley, so he stood beside her
and coaxed, “I know you may feel a little awkward and distant since you two are meeting for the first
time, but Roni, she has done so much for you. It’s just that she has also kept you in the dark for your
sake.”
“It’s okay.” The gracious Hayley politely gestured for them to take a seat. “Come, Veronica, have a
seat. Mateo, Mr. Crayson, have a seat.”
“Okay!” Mateo happily nodded and tugged the quiet Veronica to sit on the sofa.
The maid came over and asked, “Would you like coffee or tea?”
Hayley had gone to Castron or other countries from time to time, so she had a change of taste, and she
took a fancy to coffee. So she purchased a lot of coffee beans from abroad and ground them herself.
“Coffee.”
“Yup, I’ll have a cup of coffee too.”
Both of them ordered a cup of coffee.
The maid gave a slight nod and turned around to leave.
The maid came over shortly with two cups of aromatic coffee and a cup of well-steeped tea.Material ? of N?velDrama.Org.
