âSo, even Veronicaâs so-called closest person is just like this.â
His cold voice slowly spoke, mechanical and devoid of any emotion, and his gaze upon her turned indifferent.
This kind of Mason was incredibly unfamiliar to Veronica.
âI thought the closest person to me would have no secrets, instead of doing such terrible things behind my back! You keep saying that Iâm your closest person, but you only use me as a pawn to manipulate!
Even though it was you and Lionel who planned the kidnapping, I still have to be grateful to you in the end!â
As she thanked him like a fool and clung to him, was he happy that his plan had succeeded? Thinking about this, Veronica felt even more uncomfortable!
He listened to every accusation she made without defending himself.
It turns out that not being trusted by the most important person is so painful! What kind of heart-
wrenching feeling is this?
âI forgot that we are not the same kind of people. You are Mason from the high and mighty Reed family, and to you, I am just a toy you wantâ¦â Her voice continued to ring in his ears, âEven if you call me Veronica, do you really see me as Veronica?â
âI forgot, weâre not even the same kind of people. Youâre Mason from the high and mighty Reed family, and to you, Iâm just a toy you wantedâ¦â Her voice continued to ring in his ears. âEven if you call me Veronica, do you really see me as Veronica?â
Her voice felt like the sharpest arrow, piercing his heart.
âSoâ¦what am I to Veronica?â He looked at her and said softly.
She froze, his gaze pressing down on her heart like a heavy weight. But at this moment, she ignored the suffocating feeling and reminded herself that from the beginning, they were never the same kind of people. Their identities were worlds apart. âTo me, youâre just the Reed familyâs Mason!â
âThe Reed familyâs Mason?â He suddenly sneered, his cold and indifferent gaze becoming even clearer. âSo to you, Iâm just the Reed familyâs Mason, and thatâs why youâre nice to me, right?â
âYes!â The insincere word blurted out of her mouth.
Even she couldnât explain why she said âyesâ. Was it because she was angry? Angry that he was treating her like a fool?!
âI see!â he murmured. Although he had once said that she could use him and he didnât mind being used by her, even allowing her to use his identity to gain various benefits she wanted.
But now that he knew that her kindness towards him was only because of his status, the feeling of pain was still so strong.
âWellâ¦I wonât call you Veronica anymore.â He looked at her and said each word deliberately.
âVeronica, since you think we are not the same kind of people and have never treated me as your closest person, thenâ¦I wonât treat you as my closest person either. From now on, just like you said, I am only Mason, the Reed familyâs Mason!â
His voice was terrifyingly calm.
Those beautiful black eyes only looked at her with indifference and coldness, as if from now on, she was no different from anyone else in his eyes.
Suddenly, her heart felt like it had been stabbed hard, causing a sharp pain.
Would he never call her Veronica again? This sentence seemed to strip away the relationship between them.
