Chapter 889 Final Resting Place
“Don’t worry, everything is according to plan.” Crayson kept both arms behind his back, and as he
looked at Matthew’s figure in the distance, he said, “He definitely won’t get to leave this place alive.”
Matthew was the largest obstacle preventing Veronica from staying on with the hidden clan. Once this
obstacle was removed, it would be a piece of cake to manipulate Veronica.
“Matthew’s a very intelligent man and he’s always on guard, so it would be quite difficult to execute the
plan.” Hayley was slightly worried. “Yes, naturally, I’m aware of that.”
Crayson was well aware of Matthew’s capabilities, so to get rid of Matthew entirely, Crayson had
several plots up his sleeves to ensure that Matthew would not get to leave this place in one piece.
Hayley knew that Crayson was a conscientious man, so she knew that he was not one to exaggerate.
As such, she absolutely trusted his words. After going up the mountain, they left to go to their
respective tents.
The ceremony would start officially at eleven o’clock in the morning. Veronica and Matthew remained in
their tent and sat there for some time. Finally, Matthew indicated with his eyes, and then they walked
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtoutside together.
They strolled along the valley and were surrounded by people from the hidden clan. Matthew walked
over to stand next to Veronica with a frown on his face. “Are you afraid?”
“Yes, of course I’m afraid!”
At that moment, Veronica was engrossed in listening to the cuckoo bird chirp as she enjoyed the slight
breeze. Suddenly, she said ruefully. “Well, it’s death on the other side if we don’t survive so I would be
afraid of course.”
She had too many things in life she cared about. She cared about her career in Bloomstead, her elderly
parents back in her hometown, and her two children. Most importantly, she also was quite concerned
about Matthew, this guy who was deeply in love with her.
“You’ve got me by your side. I’ll do everything I can to protect you.” Matthew comforted Veronica.
The two of them didn’t dare to talk in the tent because they were worried that the place was bugged.
Both of them had their guards up against Crayson and the others.
“Protect me? You have trouble even defending yourself, so how are you going to protect me, huh?”
Veronica turned her head slightly and exchanged a look with Matthew before smiling teasingly. He’s
offended Zac, so there is no way Zac would let him off the hook.
As they spoke, Matthew paused in his tracks and lifted his head slightly to indicate for Veronica to look
up ahead of them. “That is where Mount Manos and Mount Gazette lie. It would definitely be great if we
get to leave this place. If we don’t, then that might be our final resting place.”
Mount Manos and Mount Gazette were the two mountains where the hunt would be held.
However, as they looked from this distance, the two mountains appeared to be quite very far away and
looked huge.
There was a thunderous expression on Veronica’s exquisite face at that moment. “This is just the first
challenge we face, and if we can’t overcome this, then the challenges will only get tougher over time.”
“No.” Matthew disagreed with her statement. “This is the most dangerous place for us, and if we
succeed in leaving the place, then we would have succeeded, hands down.”
This place was full of dangers, and naturally, there were a lot of unpredictable circumstances too.
“Crayson mentioned before that there are a lot of wild beasts and venomous snakes on the mountain.”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmVeronica heaved a slight sigh before asking, “Do you remember the things I told you before?”
She had told him that if it came to a point someday where only one of them could live on, he must
leave without hesitation because they had two children waiting for them to get back in Bloomstead.
Veronica had mentioned that briefly, but Matthew said, “How can you be so sure that our kids are in
Bloomstead? You would only be able to find out whether our kids are in Bloomstead or with the hidden
clan if you remain safely by my side or walk out of this place.”
Matthew seemed to be able to read her mind, and he knew exactly what she was thinking. The
connection between them was miraculous.
“You’re right about that.”
Veronica seemed quite calm on the surface, but turbulent emotions hit her at that moment.
Both of them remained silent.
Boom. Boom. Boom. Suddenly, they heard the banging of drums from somewhere not too far from
them.
It was a signal that the hunting ceremony was about to start.
Both of them turned around and headed toward the tent. As they arrived outside the tent, Crayson,
Hayley, and the others were already waiting for them.
