He was different, he was always in the darkness, but because of her, he slowly started to become brighter.
However, there were some things in his nature that he couldnât get rid of.
He just didnât want to show his dark side in front of her. He could behave the way she expected him to.
âButâ¦â Grace seemed to want to say something else, but Jason hugged her and said, âOkay, Mason is only 10 years old now, and his feelings for Veronica should only be attachment. As for whether he will fall in love with her in the future and what Veronica will do, even if we think about it now, we canât do anything. Maybe in the future, things will not develop as we expected. What we can do now is to wait and see.â
And when the time really comes to take action, then they will take action.
Grace had to give up.
After all, Masonâs matter couldnât be concluded in a short time.
At this moment, Veronica was lying in bed in the Barlow family, preparing to go to sleep, suddenly, the door was knocked twice.
She hesitated for a moment, knowing who was outside the door at this moment.
Usually, at this point, she would shout or directly open the door, butâ¦
Veronica hesitated, her body didnât move, and she didnât make a sound.
Time passed by second by second, the room was quiet, and after the two knocks on the door, there was no other sound outside the room.
After about 10 minutes, Veronica finally stood up, walked to the door, and opened it.
A figure was standing outside the room, and those clear eyes were looking straight at her.
Veronica was shocked, âYouâ¦why are you still here?â
âIâm waiting for you to open the door, sis.â Mason replied as if it was a matter of course.
âButâ¦but I didnât come to the door, you should have gone back to your own room.â Veronica said awkwardly.
âBut youâre here to open the door now, arenât you?â He asked strangely.
âWhat if I never opened the door?â She asked back.
âIâll just wait here.â
âYouâll only be waiting until morning!â
âWell, then Iâll wait until morning,â he said nonchalantly.
To him, it didnât matter how long he had to wait outside the door.
Veronica was helpless seeing Mason like this, so she could only say to him, âThen⦠why donât you come in first.â
then Mason obediently followed Veronica into the room, automatically climbed onto the bed, pulled back the covers, and lay down on her bed.
That was his usual position for lying down.
He didnât like sleeping alone at night, and always liked to go into her room and sleep next to her. It made him feel comfortable and satisfied.
âUm⦠this is the last time,â Veronica said as she got into bed and spoke to Mason.
âThe last time?â His eyes flashed with confusion.
âRight, this is the last time. We wonât continue sleeping together like this in the future,â said Veronica.
Masonâs pretty little face suddenly sank as he asked Veronica, âWhy is it the last time?â
âWe have grown up, you are a boy and I am a girl, we cannot continue sleeping together,â said Veronica.
