Daniella came forward and led them into the house.

Inside the house, there was already tons of food on the dining table. There was a mixture of vegetables and meat, so it was a well-balanced meal. Besides, there was also a bottle of wine on the table.

After Matthew had gone out to the courtyard, Crayson rapped the cigarette pipe in his hand on the table and glared at Veronica. “Does he like you?”

“What?! Master, what are you on about?! He has a fiancée.” Veronica brushed him off by waving her hands as she thought that he was being quite indecent.

 

“Alright, that’s great to know.” Crayson nodded his head solemnly just then.

“What’s great to know?” Meanwhile, Veronica, who was quite confused by his words, couldn’t help asking.

“Yeah, that’s right. Your master’s quite right.” Tony agreed with Crayson too.

Veronica was at a loss for words upon hearing that. “What’s going on in your brains? Gosh!” She shook her head and responded, “Dad, today’s your birthday and it’s also his birthday coincidentally, so he came over to celebrate your birthdays together.”

As soon as Veronica said that, she also realized how ridiculous the reason sounded and she quickly explained, “This was his grandmother’s idea. Actually, my god grandmother instructed him to come here.”

“Is that so? That does sound reasonable.” At that point, Tony nodded his head and he could finally heave a sigh of relief.
