Chapter 1192 May I Protect Roni?
No matter what he did, Crayson always considered the interests of Veronica and the hidden clan first.
"I watched that girl grow up. To be honest, this time... Sigh..." Crayson waved his hand at Matthew.
"Iron Pillar, you've been with Veronica all day today. You should rest early too."
Some things shouldn't be said in front of outsiders.
"I understand."
Matthew responded and went upstairs to rest as well.
Watching him leave, Hayley frowned. "Does he also live upstairs? Wouldn't it be… inconvenient?"
Hayley felt that "Iron Pillar" was, after all, a man, and it wasn't entirely appropriate for him to live on the
same floor as Veronica.
"'Iron Pillar' is skilled. Letting him live in this building is also good for Veronica's safety. If anything
happens, he can come to protect her in time."
Crayson had considered this matter carefully before deciding to let "Iron Pillar" live on the same floor as
Veronica.
"That makes sense."
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtHayley nodded without any objections.
On the other hand, Mateo, who was standing aside, pursed his lips and occasionally glanced at Hayley,
wanting to say something but hesitating.
Hayley noticed his expression and smiled warmly. "Mateo, do you have something to say?"
"Ah... Me? "
Mateo chuckled, scratching his head. "I…do have something on my mind."
"You can say anything."
"Can I really?"
"Child..." Hayley shook her head helplessly with a smile. "I have had a long-standing friendship with
your grandfather. We are family. There's nothing you can't say."
"Haha, I-I'll tell you."
Mateo walked to Hayley's side and sat down next to her. He was about to say something when he
started growing uneasy from Crayson, Destiny, and Hayley's gazes on him.
"You brat, is there anything I am not allowed to hear?"
Crayson glared at him.
"No, there isn't." Mateo smiled innocently before he turned around and glanced upstairs. "Actually, I-I
want to ask if I may protect Roni in the future."
"Hehehe."
Hayley giggled at his words. "You and Veronica are friends. Of course, you should protect her in the
future."
"Isn't that a given? You brat, you're just talking nonsense!" Crayson thought Mateo was being dramatic
for no reason.
"No, that's not it."
Feeling misunderstood, Mateo pursed his lips. "I mean that."
"What do you mean?"
The three of them looked at him with confusion, not understanding what he meant.
"Ah!" Mateo sighed. As he rubbed his forehead with his hand, he thought for a while before finally
confessing, "I went to Bloomstead many years ago and met Roni back then. Actually, Madam Hayley,
I… I have liked Roni for many years. What I mean is, may I... protect Roni in the future?"
With that said, everyone suddenly understood.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmHis meaning was clear enough.
The three of them were stunned. Their bodies that were slightly leaning forward leaned back against
the back of the couch again. Their expressions were different, and no one spoke.
Seeing that they all had their own thoughts but didn't speak, Mateo grew anxious. "What does this
reaction mean?" he squeaked.
He couldn't understand at all.
"What is in your head, boy? You must be confused."
Crayson scolded sternly.
Although Veronica had given birth to two children in Bloomstead, she was destined to become the head
of the hidden clan in the future.
As the head of the hidden clan, the person who could match her would undoubtedly be the most
outstanding.
Crayson believed that Hayley didn't find Mateo the least bit impressive.
His thoughts were unanimously agreed upon by Destiny. However, she only nodded without saying
anything.
