Chapter 1010 Are Your Men Reliable

As if she was a burden, she constantly needed Matthew's help and even almost made him lose his life,

all while she could give him nothing.

"It's getting late. I should go now." Matthew grabbed her shoulders and softly, he noted, "There are still

many things to be done. As for you, have courage in everything you do. I'm with you till the end." He

revealed a tender smile. "I am your shield." Matthew raised his hand and caressed the top of her head,

speaking with a pampering tone filled with love.

"You be careful as well, Matt," Veronica reminded.

"I will." He nodded. "I'm leaving now." With that, he loosened his grip on her, after which he turned

around and walked to the balcony before hopping and vanishing into the night sky.

Veronica stood before the window. As the light in the room was off, no outsider could see her, but from

her side, she could see Matthew's sturdy body fading away into the lightless dusk. With her hands

clutching the rails, she uncomfortably furrowed her brows as immense worry surged in her heart.

The ascension ceremony is in two days… Veronica knew that Matthew was only able to come to her at

this moment because while Crayson was scheming with the Elrods to seize the head of the clan's

position, they accidentally accommodated the "heavily injured" Matthew, so he took the opportunity to

get to her.

The next day, due to the ascension ceremony of the hidden clan, certain streets were closed as

banners and lanterns of the hidden clan were hung at numerous places, making the region seem

extremely merry. Though, there was nothing but darkness concealed under the exuberant atmosphere.

In the night, Dominik was having a secret meeting with Zac. Sitting opposite Zac, he stated with a stern

face, "The Elrods will riot at the ascension ceremony tomorrow. We shall wait for them to take down

Eleanor before going out and annihilating them. The elders who protect me will also come to support

me tomorrow." With a solemn gaze, he questioned, "How many elites do you have?"

Holding a cigar in his mouth, Zac leaned back on the couch with a pondering scowl. "More than ten

elites, but I have one deadeye."

Hearing that, Dominik raised his head and looked at Zac's proud eyes. "You even have a sniper?" He

felt somewhat suspicious, but mostly happy.

"Of course."

"Splendid." Dominik laughed as he placed a floor plan on the table. "This is the layout for the ascension

ceremony tomorrow. My mother will be right above here, with Eleanor seated beside her. I suggest that

you place your sniper over here. Once the Elrods go crazy tomorrow, have your sniper eliminate

Eleanor right away, and the blame will be pinned on the Elrods. After the feud of both parties settles

down, I'll go up with my men to wipe out the entire Elrod Clan. During the chaos, you must definitely

have your men take down Veronica."

Listening to Dominik's plan, Zac grew a little skeptical. "Are your men reliable though?"

"Without a doubt." Dominik was confident.

"Really?" Zac stood up and went to sit beside Dominik, putting his arm around his shoulders, his gaze

fixed on his eyes. "What we're about to do tomorrow is highly dangerous, and I might lose my life

during the process. I believe some appreciation is due. Don't you agree, Dominik?" He raised his

brows, showing a knowing grin.

Dominik was stunned for a second. Right after, his eyes flickered as he let out a chuckle. "As we

previously agreed, once I secured the position of the head of the clan, I will fulfill my part of the

agreement and give you part of the mining rights. However, should you fail, not only will my men lose

their lives, but I may lose mine along with yours as well."
