Chapter 960 Know the Truth
In the afternoon, Veronica received a call from Eleanor.
"What are you doing right now, Goddess Veronica? Shouldn't you treat me to dinner and repay me
because I, Princess Eleanor of the hidden clan, saved your man?"
Eleanor, on the other end of the phone, spoke casually and enthusiastically, clearly in a good mood.
"I wanted to visit you because I know you were injured, but I was just discharged from the hospital at
noon. You called before I had time to contact you."
Veronica smiled heartily. "I'm at One Piece Restaurant. Come here. I'll ask Matt to cook for you to
express my gratitude."
"Hahaha! You know me best. Wait for me. I am on my way."
Eleanor hung up the phone quickly, cleaned up briefly, and drove down the mountain with Liam.
In the car, Liam occasionally glanced at Eleanor who was beaming like a flower while sitting in the
passenger seat. He said, "He's married. You two have no chance. What are you so happy about?"

Eleanor's smile vanished as she heard what he said, and she cast a sideways glance at him, saying,
"You are always cheering and flattering that sultry b*tch every day. So, you are allowed to be happy
and I'm not?''
"Whatever you say." Liam twisted his lips and continued speaking while he tapped his fingers on the
steering wheel. "It appears that the injury has healed, and you're in a good mood. That's excellent."
"Well, it's all thanks to you. Staying with me in the water dungeon for two days, and even finding
something for me to step onto; otherwise, I would have suffered a lot in there."
People would be punished in the water prison by having their hands tied with iron chains and standing
in water up to their thighs.
Liam arrived shortly after she was sent to the water dungeon, talking and conversing with her the entire
time. He even bribed the people in the water dungeon to put a high table under her feet so she could sit
on the table.
He also fed her food and drinks by himself.
Eleanor was moved by Liam's actions after the water dungeon incident. Of course, this is also thanks
to the fact that my mother had turned a blind eye to this; otherwise, how could I blatantly avoid the
punishment meant for me?
"It's good that you know."
Liam smiled. "When you become the head of the hidden clan, you have to protect this younger brother
of yours, okay?"
"Of course." Eleanor boldly and generously patted her chest.
"What... about Dominik?" Liam inquired cautiously.
"Dominik?" Eleanor paused, the ease and delight on her face gone, and her face grew solemn. "I know
what you want to say. So, you stayed in the dungeon with me for two days this time because you were
worried he'd do something to me?"
"Hoo…"

"It turns out that you have been having your guard up against him. I was still debating how to tell you,
and I was afraid that if I did, you'd accuse me of causing division," Liam said, relieved that she had
more or less guessed something.
"Liam. Being born in the palace, there are many unavoidable things. It is also destined that we will not
be like ordinary families, where brothers and sisters love each other." Eleanor looked at him as she
said that.
Then, the car fell into silence, and neither of the two spoke again.
Some details shouldn't be revealed too much, and both of them were intelligent to understand that
naturally.
Over at One Piece Restaurant.
When Liam and Eleanor arrived at One Piece Restaurant, Veronica and Matthew were already waiting
for them at the door.
"Ooh, is it because I am now your husband's savior, so the treatment has also been upgraded that you
guys are willing to go to the door to greet me in person?" Eleanor feigned surprise as she approached
the door.
She glanced at Matthew before returning her gaze to Veronica and teasing her.
Veronica walked toward her and nodded slightly. "You saved Matt, which means you saved me as well.
Since you are our savior, of course, I have to greet you in person to show my sincerity."
