"Master Crayson... He..."

Veronica promptly fell silent.

Head bowed, she poked at the food on her plate with her fork for a long minute before she spoke

again. "I have my own choices and thoughts."

As she said that, she raised her head abruptly and stared at Matthew with an unwavering gaze. "My

home, my children, my husband—they are all in Bloomstead."

This was exactly why Veronica wouldn't stay with the hidden clan no matter what.

The reason she agreed to go to the hidden clan was because she was afraid of the power of the clan,

and she knew that she was too weak to win against them.

But after going to the hidden clan, there were certain things that Crayson didn't have the final say.

Veronica was also more confident now after she had Matthew behind her back.

This was also why she didn't tell Crayson the reason Matthew faked his death. Veronica had her own

plans.

Crayson had been dormant for so many years, and even though he was always good to her, his loyalty

for the hidden clan ran deeper.

People like him had strong beliefs. It was hard to say for sure if he would do something unimaginable to

her for the hidden clan's sake.

"You have me. Don’t worry." Matthew smiled warmly as he looked into Veronica's glittering eyes.

Hearing that, she nodded and let out a long breath. "You are my husband. Who am I going to trust if not

you? Also, Uncle Conrad has been keeping his eyes on your property lately. He probably can't hold

himself back from doing something after I left Bloomstead." "You have done a good job. Many of your

thoughts coincide with mine even though we haven't talked about it beforehand. Go on and take

charge. I trust you, and I believe in my own taste."

He sounded somewhat proud as he spoke.

Matthew must be thinking about how he made the best choice that he had never regretted when he

married Veronica.

"For some reason, I suddenly don't know if you are complimenting me or yourself." Veronica laughed at

his words.

Placing the fork down on the plate, she rested her elbows on the table and propped her chin on her

palms. She then quietly blinked and stared at him with gentle, beautiful eyes.

The man swiftly got up to pour her a bowl of herbal soup. "Have some. You need a recharge."

She only sincerely replied, "I don't want to. I want to look at you."

She didn't feel hungry anymore as she looked at the handsome man. She would rather take one more

look at him in case she couldn't see him for a long time again if she missed tonight.

Matthew's hands that were peeling the prawns paused slightly, and he looked up at the woman sitting

opposite him. Seeing her gentle smile, he shook his head helplessly and tilted his head to the side

before he laughed out loud.

With his sharp features, he looked even more scrumptious when he looked to the side, each and every

line on his face becoming clearer.

He was the type of man who looked like a cold beauty when he was serious. However, him covering his

lips and chuckling gave him a seductive and bewitching charm.

"Were your parents very good-looking? How can you be so handsome otherwise—"

Veronica rarely complimented him like this. This was also the first time she had brought up his parents.

Their existence wasn't a good memory for Matthew. On the contrary, the smile on his face gradually

lost its warmth and turned cold as soon as she mentioned them.

She only realized that she had said the wrong thing when she noticed his odd reaction.

He was already shaking his head before she finished uttering an apology. "It's okay. I am the one who

is not over them." After hesitating for a second, he continued, "I will bring you to pay them a visit after

all this is over." "Alright. We will do that when we safely reunite."

He hummed a reply before changing the topic. "Eat more. You have lost too much weight." He

continued to put food on her plate, his eyes filled with love for her.
