Chapter 71

Veronica shrugged and then she bowed deeply to Elizabeth. “Grandma, I’m very sorry for that.”

“Ha!It’s alright.”

Elizabeth’s reaction was totally beyond Veronica’s expectations. Meanwhile, Elizabeth was elated and she grabbed hold of Veronica before studying the latter as she circled her. “Gosh! I read on the news two days ago that you’re the Larsons’ daughter and I didn’t believe it then. I can’t believe that you’re actually the one. If I hadn’t gotten the preemptive information from the news, I would have definitely been shocked.”

“Grandma, aren’t you angry with me?”

Veronica had initially assumed that Elizabeth would be unhappy to see her reveal her actual look. However, Elizabeth wasn’t the least bit upset at all.

 

“Gosh, I’m more than happy for you! Why would I get angry?”

Just then, Elizabeth held Veronica’s hand tenderly. “Come to think of it, you look exactly like Tiffany. The only difference is the mole on your nose. Your eyes look bigger, and are more expressive and prettier than hers. You little brat! You’re so pretty, yet you disguise yourself as such an ugly-looking person!”

 

Just then, Elizabeth had so much to share with Veronica and the former conveniently overlooked Tiffany. Tiffany was significantly displeased about it, but she didn’t dare to reveal her displeasure.

“Veronica, where have you disappeared to lately? Do you know that Mom and I have been searching for you all this while?”

Tiffany, who was the best at putting on an act, stepped forward and grabbed Veronica into a tight hug. “I knew it! It’s no wonder that I felt a sense of familiarity when we first met. It’s obviously because you’re my younger sister. Did you know in advance about our relationship? Did you put on that ugly disguise because you didn’t want to come back home with me?”.

The tears suddenly streamed down Tiffany’s face as she sobbed. Her ‘heart wrenching’ performance pained those who saw her.

Meanwhile, Veronica stood there with a stunned look as Tiffany hugged her. The former’s entire body was stiff and she felt as if she had been struck by lightning. The
