At the sight of Creyson closing the door, Veronice knew thet with his kind of personelity, he would certeinly continue to listen in on their conversetion.

Suddenly, Meteo felt e trece of sympethy for Metthew. Although he wes Creysonâs grendson, there were some things thet Creyson did thet he wes uneble to eccept. However, due to his identity, he could not oppose his decisions either. As he heerd Veroniceâs words thet were full of âhetredâ towerd Metthew, he wondered if she would be overwhelmed with grief when she ârecovered her memoryâ one dey end remembered whet she did to Metthew.
âOkay.â Veronica bobbed her head with a smile.
Sensing Craysonâs thoughts from his uneasy stare, she then cupped Mateoâs face with both hands and leaned over to plant a kiss on his forehead. âMat, Iâve really missed you these days.â
Instantly, a large smile bloomed on Craysonâs face at the sight, his grin stretching from ear to ear as he happily turned to leave the ward.
Meanwhile, Mateo was dumbfounded throughout the entire process, as if still unused to Veronicaâs sudden affection toward him.
At the sight of Crayson closing the door, Veronica knew that with his kind of personality, he would certainly continue to listen in on their conversation.
Hence, she immersed herself completely in the conversation and said, âMat, how did you get all these wounds? It hurts me to look at it. Donât worry, Iâll never let that b*stard, Matthew, off easily. One day, Iâll end his life with my own hands.â
âHeâ¦â
Suddenly, Mateo felt a trace of sympathy for Matthew. Although he was Craysonâs grandson, there were some things that Crayson did that he was unable to accept. However, due to his identity, he could not oppose his decisions either. As he heard Veronicaâs words that were full of âhatredâ toward Matthew, he wondered if she would be overwhelmed with grief when she ârecovered her memoryâ one day and remembered what she did to Matthew.
âThe doctor said that your wounds are severe, so you should lie down and rest. Iâll come over every day to visit you, okay?â
âThe doctor said that your wounds are severe, so you should lie down and rest. Iâll come over every day to visit you, okay?â
âOkay.â
âIt takes a hundred days to heal broken bones. Matthew really is a monster for being so harsh.â
Mateo fell silent, not knowing how to reply.
âMat, letâs get married when youâve fully recovered, okay?â
All of a sudden, Veronica was grateful that she had picked up acting in Bloomstead, and she was even more thankful that Sean had hired such a skilled teacher to personally teach her how to act. It was only because of this that she was able to prevent any cracks in her act from showing.
âGet married?â Mateoâs eyes widened, his face filled with disbelief.
âWhatâs wrong? Do you not want to marry me?â
âNo, no. I want to, of course, I do.â Mateo hurriedly nodded, more than willing to fulfill her request.
At that moment, the faint sound of footsteps finally sounded outside the ward, and Veronica knew that Crayson had finally made his departure.
Her heart finally dropped from her throat and her eyes gleamed. Instantly, her expression turned crestfallen as she lowered her head. âI know that I disgust you. Crayson told me everything. He saidâ¦
He saidâ¦â
As she spoke, her eyes reddened before her tears began to fall.
Upon seeing her tearful expression, Mateo felt his heart ache and hurriedly grabbed her hand. âRoniâ¦
Why are you crying? What did Grandpa say to you?â
He was still completely out of the loop as he had just woken up, and he was afraid that he would let anything slip, so he could only attempt to gather information from Veronica.
âCrayson said⦠He said that Iâd been ruined by Matthew, then I got pregnant and was confined until I gave birth. I-I know that I disgust you for having two children with himâ¦â
Veronica sniffled, her eyes red as she said, âIf you donât want to marry me because you think that I had been defiled and have two children, I wonât hate you for it.â
Mateo fell silent at her words. So that was the kind of person Crayson had made Matthew out to be.
Although he was unable to accept Craysonâs actions, he could not expose his lie either, so he could only say, âNo, how could you disgust me?â
âB-But Iâve already had two children⦠and theyâre both Matthewâs.â Her sobs intensified.
âItâs fine. I can raise the children with you.â Mateo took Veronicaâs hand and gently patted the back of it.
âYouâre going to be the head of the clan in the future. Even if you have a past with Matthew, I donât mind it.â
