Chapter 60

“No, I don’t need it.” Veronica thought that Yvonne’s pendant was pretty, but she still rejected her offer as she didn’t know about its value.

Plus, Xavier had gifted her a necklace prior to this, so she didn’t need Yvonne’s.

“We have known each other for at least ten days. Do you dislike me that much?” Standing before Veronica, Yvonne raised a brow as she questioned if Veronica disliked her.

“I…” Veronica was rendered speechless, but she wasn’t bothered to answer her question as well.

However, Yvonne chuckled at her silence. “Your reaction tells me that you don’t hate me. Come here, let me put this on you.”

 

“I’ll do it myself.” Unable to resist her kindness, Veronica had no choice but to accept it. As a person who disliked owing favors, Veronica then removed the necklace from her own neck and handed it to Yvonne. “Here. A gift in return.”

“Alright, thank you.” Yvonne accepted the necklace. And so, the duo exchanged necklaces.

 

Thereafter, Yvonne sat down next to Veronica and looked at her as she whispered, “Now that we have exchanged presents, can you tell me what’s your escape plan?”

She deliberately got close to her so that Veronica would take her along when she escaped.

“There is no plan.” Veronica was still cold toward Yvonne, and the former even lay on the bed lazily.

Yvonne, who seemed to have been used to his cold attitude, merely returned to her own bed and lay down.

Not long after that, a soft sound of the door being unlocked was heard from outside, and a mercenary entered their room.

When they had first met the mercenaries, all of them were dressed in camouflage uniforms, but they had changed into casual wear before boarding the ship to prevent attracting unnecessary attention.
