Chapter 516 Rescuing Matthew

“I’ll have to consult Master Crayson about this.” Destiny was worried about Veronica’s action and she was even more worried to make any decisions on her own accord. Otherwise, she would not be able to take responsibility if the major plot was ruined.

Veronica maintained her silence while Destiny had one hand on the steering wheel and the other on her phone as she dialed Crayson’s number.

 

The other party answered the phone and Destiny immediately reiterated Veronica’s words to Crayson. As soon as he heard that, he was not too surprised but descended into silence once again. It was likely that he was considering the situation and trying to figure things out.

After some moments of thought, he heaved a sigh before replying, “She’s a grown woman and there are some things that she’s got to decide for herself ultimately. All you’ve got to do is to ensure her safety.”

Crayson had watched over Veronica since she was a child and he knew her personality more than anyone else. No one would be able to stop her from doing anything that she had made up her mind to do.

Since Destiny had the phone on loudspeaker, Veronica heard Crayson’s words clearly from the passenger seat. From the phone call he shared with Veronica earlier and up until Destiny’s call now, Crayson had been sighing non-stop. Veronica had known him for such a long time, but she hardly ever heard him express such dejected sighs. For a moment there, she somehow felt that he had aged significantly. Her identity had come as a huge shock to her; though she was able to maintain her composure on the surface, the inner turmoil she faced lingered on persistently and she could not seem to calm down.

“Hand the phone to her,” Crayson mentioned to Destiny.

“You’re on loudspeaker, so you can just continue speaking.”

Destiny glanced at Veronica and felt that this girl was scaringly calm. She’s indeed learned the best from Master Crayson. She’s not frantic even when faced with an urgent situation and this is a trait that she is exemplary in compared to everyone else.

“Veronica, just go ahead with whatever you wish to do, and don’t be afraid because we’ll be here to support you.”

After Crayson’s brief pause, Veronica assumed that he was about to come up with some touching words for her. Unexpectedly though, it was just a simple sentence.
