These are also some words from Lionel that gave him a sudden feeling of clarity and relief.
Actually, sometimes achieving a certain goal doesnât necessarily require a tough approach. Veronica actually responds better to a more gentle approach.
If he lowers his attitude, she will be more likely to accept.
Since she always refers to him as her âlittle brotherâ, he will comply with her wishes and be a good little brother.
As for her desire for ârespect,â he can give it to her. Even if she truly likes Daniel, he will find a way to make her stop liking him.
The only one she could like is him.
âVeronica, can we stop giving each other the silent treatment from now on?â Mason said softly, with a slight hint of pity in his voice, his eyebrows and eyes drooping.
Veronica felt a sudden pang of sympathy for Mason, and said, âOkay, letâs stop giving each other the silent treatment from now on.â
Head Mason did not snatch the her drink.
However, being watched by him so quietly made her feel event more uneasy and nervous for some reason.
âWhy⦠are you staring at me while I drink?â she asked with a pout.
âHe just felt that when Veronica was drinking her milk tea, it seemed like she was enjoying something very delicious,â he said.
âActually⦠itâs not too bad,â she said awkwardly. After all, the milk tea that Daniel had bought for her was from the schoolâs convenience store, and the taste was actually quite familiar.
âWhat kind of feelings does Veronica have towards Mr. Cross?â Mason asked.
Veronicaâs face suddenly showed a hint of shyness, âItâs just the feeling of a senior.â
âOh really? I thought Veronica liked him,â said Mason. As he spoke, his face remained expressionless, as if he was just casually making a comment.
Veronicaâs heart lifted up suddenly, but when she saw Masonâs seemingly indifferent expression, she breathed a sigh of relief and simply said, âNo, youâre overthinking it.â
â
Uby the blush on her face.
Masonâs eyes caught a glimpse of the blush on her face, and his gaze gradually darkened. So, Veronica really has fallen for Daniel, hasnât she? And for her, heâs just a younger brother.
Even if she also likes him, this kind of liking is completely different from her liking for Daniel.
However⦠he wonât let anyone have Veronica, even if that person is the one she likes in her heart!
If she really falls for Daniel, then⦠he will destroy that feeling!
Danielâs visits to Veronicaâs classroom became more and more frequent, and people from both classes began to speculate about their relationship.
The rumors about Veronica and Mason, which were once rampant, were now quelled because of this phenomenon.
Some even said, âVeronica and Mason have a sibling relationship. If there really is anything going on, Mason would have beaten up Daniel for constantly going to Veronicaâs side.â
âExactly!â someone chimed in, âBesides, Veronica isnât even that pretty. Mason is the second son of the Reed family! How could he really be interested in Veronica? They just grew up together and see each other as siblings.â
