    Chapter 1234 ying the Cards Perfectly


    After leaving the pce in the afternoon, Matthew drove the car with Veronica seated in the passenger


    seat, lost in thought.


    Matthew began. "Tanya is truly cunning. During the hunting ceremony, all the officials of the hidden n


    will be invited. Notably, she''s arranged for Hayley to attend alongside you. This is an excellent


    opportunity for her to publicly introduce you to everyone in the hidden n, which will help you in your


    futurepetition for the position of head of the n."


    "Hayley would never refuse. There is no reason to." He sighed, feeling mncholic.


    Veronica also sighed as she said, "So, Tanya ns to invite me into the trap. She wants me to


    participate in the hunting ceremony and eliminate me during the event. After all, everyone participating


    in the ceremony must sign a death waiver."


    She scoffed lightly while shaking her head. "She has yed her cards perfectly. By enticing Hayley to


    invite me to the ceremony, it will be widely known. How could I decline the hunting by then? If I do, I will


    lose the support of the people and bring shame to the Elrods. If I want topete for the position of


    head of the n in the future again, I''m afraid Hayley''s supporters will also turn against me."


    It was an unwritten rule of the hidden n that the prince and the young master were obliged to


    participate in the hunting ceremony unless there were exceptional circumstances.


    Only the courageous could be the ruler of the hidden n and lead them to prosperity. This


    ideology deeply resonated within the hearts of the hidden n members. Given the prevalence of


    martial artists in the n, thosecking inbat skills were looked down upon.


    Matthew replied with concern, "This time, not only must you take part in the hunting ceremony, but you


    also have to strive to emerge as the victor."


    Danger arrived sooner than I expected. The participants in the hunting grounds were all outstanding


    individuals, and many of them were assassins sent by Tanya. How many people could Hayley arrange


    in order to protect Veronica? It''s a life-or-death situation.

    Both of them fell into silence.


    After returning to Mountainside Gardens, they saw Hayley seated in the hall as soon as they entered.


    Veronica nced at the table in the living room. There were still five or six teacups on the table,


    indicating the recent presence of several visitors.


    Then, she looked at Matthew, who nodded. "Master Waylen, Madam Hayley, I''ll go upstairs first."


    As a part-time chef and bodyguard, he didn''t have the qualifications to listen to their conversation.


    "Okay, go ahead." Crayson nodded.


    Veronica made her way to the sofa and settled in. Before Hayley could speak, she said, "We should


    hire an additional chef. There are more and more things to do, and it''s unfair to expect him to prepare


    three meals daily while also ensuring my safety."


    Her concern for Matthew was sincere, yet she had withheld her proposal until now to avoid rousing


    suspicion from Crayson.

    "Although Iron Pir has excellent culinary skills, it''s not good to let him be a part-time chef and a


    bodyguard at the same time."


    Mateo agreed with Veronica''s words, so he smirked. "From now on, we won''t let him apany you


    anymore. He can focus solely on being a chef. Otherwise, his culinary skills would be wasted."


    Since thest fight with Liam, Crayson had instructed Mateo to reflect at home. However, worried about


    potential retaliation from Liam, he arranged for Matthew to protect Veronica.


    No matter how much Mateo pleaded during this period, he never allowed him to be with Veronica


    again.


    After Mateo finished speaking, he turned to Veronica. "Roni, please agree. I''ve been begging Grandpa


    all this time, but he refuses to let me protect you. He even said that Iron Pir would protect you with


    his life. Tsk, he just looks down on me."


    Veronica, in the midst of pouring herself a ss of water, momentarily paused as Mateo''s words


    reached her ears. Her gaze instinctively shifted toward Crayson.

    suspicion from Crayson.
