Chapter 1167 How Can Iron Pillar Go Back on His Word?

Who would have known that these 20,000 hidden clan credits were worth 100,000 Destorian Dollars

and enough to send Mateo into a nightlong state of despair? However, Matthew didn't quickly agree.

He reluctantly replied, "I'll give it a try."

"That's settled then. Iron, I'm going back to my room to await your good news."

With everything settled, Mateo was in a great mood and couldn't contain his smile.

He stood up and left the room, shutting the door behind him.

Instantaneously, the serene look vanished from Matthew's face and was replaced with a tinge of

iciness. He smiled as he shook his head, looking at the 20,000 in his hand.

At 3.00PM, Mateo emerged from the room wearing a suit and looking stunning.

Crayson, who Mateo thought had come to find him, was approaching him. Mateo smiled and stated,

"Grandpa, Iron told me that he has something to do this afternoon, so I'll accompany Roni to the

appointment."

"Iron Pillar told me the same thing, but that little brat has already left with him. She needs to take care

of some business first before going to the appointment. So you should just stay at home."

Crayson's words undoubtedly struck Mateo hard. He stood there dumbfounded, his fair face drooping.

"What do you—How can Iron Pillar go back on his word?"

He had spent 20,000 hidden clan credits to bribe "Iron Pillar," but he never expected to be played.

"What do you mean by going back on his word? He did have something to do, but that little brat went

out with him because she had nothing to do."

Crayson explained and then left.

But after taking a few steps, he paused, turned around, furrowed his brows tightly, and glared at Mateo

in anger. "You little brat, did you bribe Iron Pillar? That's why he said he had something to do and

couldn't accompany that little brat."

"Ah, I…"

At this time, Mateo felt like crying. He waved his hands repeatedly and remarked, "No, no, no. It's not

like that. Iron Pillar came to me earlier and said he had something to do, so he asked me to accompany

Roni. It's just a misunderstanding."

He turned back to the room while forcing a bitter smile.

His smile then was even more hideous than when he was sobbing.

In the meantime, at the base of a hill, in an off-road vehicle.

Matthew drove along with Veronica, leaving the city and heading to the outskirts. They came to a halt in

the middle of nowhere, surrounded by green mountains and clear water.

Turning to look at the woman in the passenger seat, Matthew played with a strand of hair at her temple

with his slender fingers. "Tell me. What should I do with you?"

"What's wrong?"

Veronica was looking at the scenery outside the car window when she was suddenly caught off guard

by Matthew's question.

"First, there was Liam, and now there's Mateo. Roni, why didn't I know that you have a lot of admirers?

So many people have expressed interest in you."

He spoke with a grudging look in his eyes.

Seeing him, Veronica couldn't help but feel a pang of heartache. She held his hand and responded,

"What nonsense is that? Where did that come from? Mateo is Master Crayson's grandson, and his

protection towards me is because of Master Crayson. Don't overthink it."

"You say I'm overthinking it, but you're completely wrong."

Matthew hugged her waist, yanking her into his lap with his arm. "Mateo himself told me this. Not only

that, but he bribed me with 20,000 hidden clan credits, hoping to take advantage of the situation and

pursue you. What do you say? Should I teach him a lesson?"

"What? I didn't know that."

In all honesty, Veronica was completely unaware of Mateo's true intentions toward her.

Mateo has been very enthusiastic about her ever since he joined the hidden clan, which is just part of

what makes him likable—his sunny and charming personality.

Who would have thought Mateo had such feelings for her?

"I regret it, Roni."
