Soon after they left, Crayson entered the room. What he saw was Veronica having breakfast at the dining table, looking lonely and depressed. Her face displayed worry and exhaustion, and the dark circles under her eyes showed she did not rest much last night.
"You're eating breakfast, which is better than I expected." He approached and praised her. Originally, he thought Veronica would be so worried that she could not eat or drink after Matthew's disappearance, only having thoughts about tracking him down. Hence, he was not expecting she had shed her impatient nature and gradually become calmer and more mature.
Veronica ate some porridge before glancing at Crayson. "He's missing, not dead."
A light flashed across his shrewd eyes before he smiled. "Matthew is intelligent and blessed. Of course, he wouldn't die that easily."
"Wouldn't that be against your wish, Master?" She picked some vegetables and ate them before asking sarcastically.
The sudden question shocked Crayson, who was stunned for a few seconds before sitting beside her. "Are you suspecting I have something to do with his death?"
Did she find out about something?
At that, Veronica suddenly stopped eating and gazed down before looking up at him. "It doesn't matter whether you have something to do with this. What's important is finding him." Once she spoke those words, she ate her porridge until it was all gone. Then, she placed her cutleries down and wiped her mouth before staring at him. "How about we make a deal?"
