Chapter 455 It’s a Wrap!

“This? It was given to me by a friend.” When Veronica noticed the odd expression on Stephen’s face, she quickly followed up, “Does this bangle have an interesting backstory or something?” “I have seen it before. It—”

Stephen seemed like he was about to say something, but when he raised his gaze from the bangle to meet Veronica’s expectant eyes, he immediately looked away while he shook his head. “It looks familiar, but I can’t remember where I saw it.”

 
 
 
 
 
 

After his eyes darted away, he tilted his head to look out the window. His change of expression in that split second was all she needed to confirm that the bangle had a story behind it. Her suspicion of Hendrey only deepened with that.

Deciding she didn’t want to ask any more questions, she changed the subject. “Crazy, I will go to the crew earlier tomorrow. Remind me of things to watch out for before the shoot, okay?”

“Don’t be so nervous. Just relax,” Larry replied, not knowing that she only mentioned that to change the topic. The car finally arrived at the entrance of the hospital not long after. As she got out of the car, Larry also followed suit while asking, “How long will you be here for? I will wait for you if you will be quick.”

“There’s no need. See you!” Veronica waved and walked in front of Larry before she pointed at his cheek. “Get in the car quickly. For your information, you are not wearing a mask, yet you’re out and about. Aren’t you afraid you will see scandals about you tomorrow?”

“Alright. I am off, then. Call me if something happens.”

Larry then turned around to get back into his car. Stephen was still in the car when he rolled down the window and waved at Veronica. “Bye!”

She hummed with a smile. “See you tomorrow.” Larry then started the car and slowly drove off. After they left, Veronica, with her high heels on, turned around and walked into the hospital.

As soon as she arrived at the entrance to Yvonne’s ward, the first person she saw was Crayson sitting on the bench in the corridor. He was still in his security uniform as he slept leaning against the bench.

She immediately felt her nose burn as her heart seemed to ache. Because she had too much to handle, she had told him early this morning to keep an eye on Yvonne in case something were to happen to Yvonne.

However, she didn’t think he would be here all day. “Crayson?” Veronica stepped forward and gently patted him on the shoulder. “Were you keeping watch here the entire day? Have you eaten?”
