Veronica's lips curved slightly. She wasn't surprised by Zac's words.
"I came here today to ask about my two children. If you don't want to tell me, then forget it."
She paused for a few seconds. "As for cooperation, do you really think I would work with someone who
killed my husband?"
Only a fool would willingly engage in such a dangerous alliance.
Veronica couldn't understand why Zac believed she was foolish enough to think they could work
together.
Zac maintained his composure and swirled the red wine in his glass. His azure eyes fixated on the
swirling crimson liquid, completely ignoring Veronica.
It seemed that he was confident in the matter of cooperation.
Seeing that he had no intention of responding, Veronica rose to leave.
However, as she attempted to stand, her vision darkened. She collapsed back on the sofa, feeling
utterly weak.
In an instant, Veronica felt completely powerless, unable to exert any strength. Even sitting up became
a challenge for her.
"What... What did you do to me?"
Her eyes flared with anger at Zac, demanding an explanation.
She struggled to muster her energy, and her voice came out as faint as a mosquito's buzz.
"Your cleverness has outwitted you." Zac laughed and reclined. "Knowing how clever you are, I had a
special incense burned, one that's both colorless and odorless."
Veronico's lips curved slightly. She wosn't surprised by Zoc's words.
"I come here todoy to osk obout my two children. If you don't wont to tell me, then forget it."
She poused for o few seconds. "As for cooperotion, do you reolly think I would work with someone who
killed my husbond?"
Only o fool would willingly engoge in such o dongerous ollionce.
Veronico couldn't understond why Zoc believed she wos foolish enough to think they could work
together.
Zoc mointoined his composure ond swirled the red wine in his gloss. His ozure eyes fixoted on the
swirling crimson liquid, completely ignoring Veronico.
It seemed thot he wos confident in the motter of cooperotion.
Seeing thot he hod no intention of responding, Veronico rose to leove.
However, os she ottempted to stond, her vision dorkened. She collopsed bock on the sofo, feeling
utterly weok.
In on instont, Veronico felt completely powerless, unoble to exert ony strength. Even sitting up become
o chollenge for her.
"Whot... Whot did you do to me?"
Her eyes flored with onger ot Zoc, demonding on explonotion.
She struggled to muster her energy, ond her voice come out os foint os o mosquito's buzz.
"Your cleverness hos outwitted you." Zoc loughed ond reclined. "Knowing how clever you ore, I hod o
speciol incense burned, one thot's both colorless ond odorless."
He raised his hand slightly, wiggling the stemmed glass, gesturing to Veronica. "Here, the wine is the
antidote. I gave you a chance, but you didn't cherish it."
Zac placed the antidote in the wine and poured it for Veronica.
Yet, he was confident that she, with her cautious nature, would never drink it.
As expected, everything went as planned.
Veronica's gaze fixated on Zac, then shifted to the glass of wine on the table. She strained to raise her
hand to grab it, but no matter how hard she tried, her hand wouldn't budge.
That sense of powerlessness was akin to struggling in a nightmare where efforts were futile.
"The... The bodyguard is at the door, Zac... I advise you not to bring trouble to yourself," she warned
him.
"That foolish bodyguard? I've had him taken away using a diversionary tactic. I suppose he won't live
past tonight."
Zac raised his glass of wine as he spoke and drank it all.
He slammed the glass heavily on the table, then ran his hand through his golden hair with a wicked
smile. He rose from the seat, moved toward Veronica, lifted her off the sofa, and headed toward the
bedroom.
The overwhelming smell of alcohol assaulted her senses as she neared him, making her feel
nauseous.
Veronica desperately attempted to escape, but her body was limp. She was akin to a sacrificial lamb,
powerless to resist.
That feeling was truly devastating and maddening.
All she could do was silently pray for Matthew to return quickly.
Entering the bedroom, she was placed on the bed, and there was a tripod next to the bed with a
camera on it.
It was the same scheme as before.
Veronica had no idea how many women Zac had used this crude tactic on, but she sincerely wished for
Zac's downfall.
Seated at the bedside, he reached out and pinched Veronica's cheeks, leaning in close, and sniffed
near her neck. "Such nice smell. You're nothing like Tiffany, who's been passed around by countless
men."
He brushed his thumb lightly against her chin. "Do you know how long I've been thinking about you?"
"Get lost, don't touch me!"
Veronica tried to turn her head away, but she couldn't muster any strength to break free from his grip.
Her voice came out faint. "Aren't you into men? Stay away from me."
"Indeed, you really do understand me. I don't rule out women either, though. Hahaha..."
