"The bodyguard that Master Crayson found for you is quite skilled. The people around you are all
hidden talents."
Xavier sighed.
He didn't know who Veronica was when he first met her, but when he later found out, he didn't find it at
all surprising because she didn't radiate a normal person's aura from the inside out.
Veronica averted her gaze and let out a quiet sigh. "I'm not interested in all of these."
She wished for a simple and ordinary life, but it seemed as though fate had pulled a cruel joke on her.
When she looked up at the sky, it was filled with brilliant stars. The sound of croaking frogs filled the
space, and everything reminded her of a childhood midsummer night. She would sit on her foster
mother's lap and be fanned by her with a fan as she counted the stars and looked up at them.
"I can help you if you want to leave." Xavier got closer to Veronica and lowered his voice to say in her
ear.
Veronica had no doubts that his words were genuine, but Xavier was too nice to her, so nice that she
felt guilty.
Especially since Matthew, who was standing not far away, was still alive. If Xavier found out the truth...
He'd be furious.
"Antheena is a good person. Don't let her down."
Veronica looked around and turned to leave, saying, "Let's go or people will start gossiping."
They took a few steps and walked to Matthew. Even in the dim light, Veronica could feel Matthew's
sharp gaze on her, which made her feel uncomfortable.
The three of them sat down by the fire and talked and drank about various subjects, but they made no
mention of the hidden clan's inheritance.
The atmosphere was pleasant and relaxed, and after a few rounds of drinks, everyone started to feel at
ease.
At this moment, Liam stood up, holding a cup of wine, and walked to Veronica's side. He waved at
Matthew, motioning for him to move aside.
But Matthew ignored him and continued to drink with his head down.
"Miss Murphy, tell your bodyguard to get out of the way. He really can't read the room." Liam felt
displeased.
Veronica's lips twitched slightly as she met Matthew's' deep and bottomless eyes. "Could you scoot
over a little?"
She couldn't help but feel a little guilty when she met his gaze after saying that.
Matthew frowned, stood up, and sat down at an empty table nearby.
Liam chuckled. "You're really gentle with your bodyguard."
He sat in the seat where Matthew had just been sitting. "I heard that you can hold your liquor well.
Come, let's have a few drinks."
"Prince Liam, you flatter me. I really can't hold my liquor."
"My mother once said that beautiful women are all deceivers. Miss Murphy is no exception. Haha!
Here, I'll toast to you."
Liam had already clinked glasses with her so she had no choice but to drink.
"You really can hold your liquor well. Let me pour you some more!" Liam picked up the wine bottle, only
to find that it was empty. He waved at a servant beside him. "Go, bring a few more bottles of wine."
"Yes, Your Highness."
The servant immediately turned around to fetch the wine.
"Big Bro Liam, do you like Miss Murphy a lot?" Eleanor teased and then said to Veronica, "Let me tell
you, my brother is a playboy. He likes all kinds of women, as long as they have a bit of beauty. Be
careful."
She didn't hide anything.
"You've gone too far, Mother. How can you say that about your brother?" Liam glared at her.
The conversation between the two confused the others. Antheena laughed and spoke up. "Who's older
between you two? Why do you call him 'Big Bro Liam' and Prince Liam calls you 'Mother'?"
