Chapter 193

At that thought, Veronique subconsciously tightened her grip on the steering wheel.

No way. I can't let Justin know of Zephyr's existence. I have to preserve my final ounce of dignity.

Balling her fists, she rolled up both sides of the windows and slammed on the accelerator, increasing the speed of the car.

Three minutes later, the red sports car drove into the compound of a mansion.

“Ms. Veronique, you're back!” A maid went forward and took the luggage from her.

Veronique looked around and whispered to the maid, “Ellie, I've found a leukemia expert in the capital, and I've got to bring Zephyr over right away. If someone comes looking for me when I'm gone, tell them we've gone on a trip, okay?”

Ellie, the maid, was stunned by the news. After returning to her senses, she asked hurriedly, “You've just come home. Don't you need some rest? Why don't you stay at home tonight and start your journey tomorrow?”

Waving her hand, Veronique walked into the living room while saying, “It's fine. The expert is an extremely busy person. I've got to take Zephyr to him at the appointed time.”

“Okay. I'll go upstairs to pack Mr. Zephyr's bags.”

Veronique stopped her. “That's not needed too. I've got a friend in the capital. She'll prepare the necessities for us. I just need you to pack his medicines. Where's Zephyr anyway?”

Ellie pointed at the tiny garden at the side. “He's drawing in the garden.”

“All right. I'll go check on him. Hurry up and bring all his medications over.”

“Okay.”

Veronique followed the path and made her way to the tiny garden behind the mansion.

From a distance, she saw a tiny figure sitting in front of a drawing board, looking as if he was drawing something.
