"Don't worry. Everything has been arranged."
Crayson stood with his hands behind his back, observing Matthew as he walked away. "He will never
leave here alive."
Matthew was their biggest obstacle in making Veronica remain in the hidden clan.
By eliminating this stumbling block, they could easily settle Veronica down here.
"Matthew is intelligent and cautious. It won't be easy to execute the plan," Hayley expressed her
concerns.
"I understand."
Crayson was well aware of Matthew's power. To eliminate him, Crayson had made several
preparations to ensure that Matthew would stay here forever.
Hayley knew that Crayson was composed and not one to boast, so she unquestioningly believed him.
Upon reaching the mountain, they each went to their respective tents.
The ceremony would officially commence at 11 a.m.
Veronica and Matthew were in their own tents. After sitting for a while, Matthew signaled her with a
glance, and they both exited.
Surrounded by members of the hidden clan, they strolled through the mountains.
Matthew walked beside Veronica with his brows slightly furrowed. "Are you afraid?"
"Yes! Of course, I'm afraid."
Veronica listened to the cuckoo's call and felt the gentle breeze. She sighed. "It's a matter of life and
death. How can I not be afraid?"
She had too many concerns.
She worried about her career in Bloomstead, her parents back home, her two children, and most
importantly, she couldn't bear to leave Matthew who loved her deeply.
"I will protect you with all my strength,"
Matthew reassured Veronica.
They didn't dare to speak in the tent, fearing that there might be listening devices. They were always on
guard against Crayson and the others.
"Protect me? How are you going to protect me when you can't even protect yourself?"
Veronica tilted her head and glanced at Matthew, teasingly smiling.
Zac wouldn't let Matthew off the hook after the latter had offended him.
While they were conversing, Matthew paused for a moment and raised his eyebrows slightly, gesturing
for Veronica to look toward a nearby place. "Over there are Mount Manos and Mount Gazette. It would
be good if we could escape. If we can't, that might be where we meet our end."
Mount Manos and Mount Gazette were where they were going to hunt.
But looking at them now, the two mountains were very far away, and they appeared incredibly massive.
Veronica's delicate face was filled with worry. "This is just the first test for us. If we can't pass this, it will
only become more difficult."
"No," Matthew disagreed, "this is the most perilous place. If we can leave safely, we will have
succeeded 99 percent."
All the dangers were present here.
Of course, there were still many unknowns.
"Master Crayson mentioned that there are many ferocious beasts and venomous snakes on the
mountain." Veronica let out a small sigh and asked, "Do you remember what I told you?"
She was referring to the time she reminded him that he must leave without hesitation if there ever
came a day when only one of them could survive. That was because their two children were waiting for
them in Bloomstead.
Veronica had only hinted at it, but Matthew understood. "How do you know that they are in
Bloomstead? Only if you are safe with me or if we can escape will you know whether our children are in
Bloomstead or the hidden clan."
Matthew, like a mind reader, knew exactly what Veronica was thinking.
Their hearts were connected!
"You're right."
Veronica appeared calm, but her heart was in turmoil.
The two fell into silence.
Thump! Thump! Thump!
At that moment, the sound of drums echoed from not far away.
The hunting ceremony was about to commence.
The two turned around and made their way back to the camp.
Outside the tents, Crayson and Hayley were waiting for them.
