Chapter 125

Veronique instantly stopped in her tracks.

She didn't turn around, but her body was trembling violently.

Her father's words were like a knife that had pierced into her heart painfully.

Am I satisfied? Of course, I'm not!

It was utterly saddening to hear her own son address her as “Aunt.”

Bill walked over to her and reached out to hold her shoulder. With a soft voice, he said, “You love Zephyr. All of us do. That kid has an amazing gift for medicine. If he were to...” He paused for a moment before continuing, “It would be such a shame. Vero, tell me. Who is that man? Only he can save Zephyr now.”

Hesitation flashed across Veronique's eyes.

In an instant, she seemed to have remembered something, for her gaze became determined.

“I will do my best to save Zephyr. If, in the end, I am not able to save him, I will die with him. I really don't know who the father is,” she said, her voice unfaltering.

A look of pain flashed across Bill's eyes as he gripped tightly onto his daughter's shoulder.

However, when he met Veronique's determined gaze, he let go of her.

“Fine. You don't even care about your own son's life, so what can I, as a granddad, do?”

Veronique took a deep breath and walked out of the room.

She had decided to take that secret to the grave.

Back then, Veronique loved him wholeheartedly, but her affection was one-sided. He had never even glanced properly at her. He even had a fiancée.

This was her final shred of dignity. Even if her child was on the brink of death, she would hold steadfast to it.

Veronique didn't want to put him in a predicament, and she didn't want him to think that she had snatched Zephyr away from him.

Meanwhile, in Luther Group, Dwayne and Jessica walked into the lead designer's office.

Bailey looked up from her stack of files. When she noticed them, she quirked an eyebrow and asked, “How do you have the time to saunter around my office, disciple?”

Fury swelled in Jessica, but she suppressed it.

She would always get annoyed every time she saw Bailey.

Dwayne noticed the fiery atmosphere between the two. He quickly walked in between them for fear of them getting into a fight and tearing the office apart. “I invited Ms. Tanner here to discuss the partnership with LG Corporation with you,” he said with a smile.

LG Corporation? Partnership?
