âVeronica, I donât know what kind of misunderstanding there is between us, but I believe that my Mason would never plan a fake kidnapping on you!â Jasper said firmly.
âWhy are you so sure?â Veronica asked.
âBecause you are the person that Mason would never want to hurt, even if it was a fake kidnapping as you said. I donât think he would do it because he would never want to see you scared, let alone give you that kind of drug!â Jasper replied. âBesides, my mom is a lawyer. If Mason really did participate in the planning of this kidnapping, how could she agree to let him go abroad?â
Veronica suddenly shook. Yes, Auntie Graceâs attitude towards the law was clear to her after all these years.
As for Mason, if he really wanted to use some tactics to reconcile with them, he would choose some more covert actions based on his personality. Just like when he secretly promised the Cross family to make Daniel leave her, he wouldnât choose to directly attack her.
But why did Mason find them first? Even earlier than the police and the Reed family. What was the reason behind this?
âVeronica, donât you believe me?â His voice rang in her ear again, and in her mind, she saw the indifferent and cold look he gave her yesterday.
Could it be⦠that there really is some misunderstanding between them?
Her head was still hurting, and her body seemed to be getting hotter. Veronica couldnât help but sway, feeling her vision becoming increasingly blurry.
âVeronica, whatâs wrong?â Jasperâs voice sounded anxious. âYour face is so red⦠hey, youâre so hot, do you have a fever?â
âIâ¦â Her eyelids seemed to be getting heavier and heavier, making it almost impossible for her to open them. But she⦠she wanted to figure out whether she really misunderstood Mason or not.
Even Jasper felt that he could never bear to hurt her, so why did she assume yesterday that he was responsible for this?
Noâ¦she had to go and ask for clarification. She needed to know if there was any misunderstanding.
But as soon as she took a step forward, her body stumbled and her legs seemed unable to support her weight. Suddenly, everything went black and the last thing she heard was Jasperâs anxious voice calling out, âVeronica! Veronica, whatâs wrong? Wake upâ¦â
Masonâ¦Masonâ¦
In her final moments of consciousness, the only thing that flashed through her mind was that beautiful face, filled with despair and coldness. It was right in front of her, yet it felt like it was a million miles away and she couldnât touch it no matter how hard she tried.
Is there a misunderstanding that once formed, can never be resolved?
Is there truly a misunderstanding between her and him?
Veronica fainted, while at the same time, Mason had already boarded a plane heading overseas.
His gaze, through the airplane window, looked upon the airport in sight.
And in his hand, he tightly held his phone, the screen displaying his contacts.
After a while, he turned his head and looked at the contacts on his phone, then selected the name âVeronicaâ.
Veronica, Veronicaâ¦
