âHow could I leave you behind? Donât talk nonsense!â She said 1.
And at this moment, recalling those conversations, it turned out that⦠from the beginning, he had already hinted at her!
But at that time, she didnât think about it in any other way, thinking that those words were just him being clingy and saying them casually.
âWould you feel disgusted?â Jasonâs voice suddenly sounded in her ear.
Disgusted? If it were before, she would have instinctively hated this behavior. To have her whereabouts known by someone else without her knowledge is a clear violation of privacy.
But at this moment, she suddenly understood why Mason would do such a thing.
He was⦠afraid that one day she would disappear, afraid that one day she would abandon him. Thatâs why he put a tracking device in the pendant of the necklace.
And the subsequent events proved that if it werenât for the tracking device in the necklace, she might have encountered even more unbearable things, and he wouldnât have been able to come to her rescue and find her whereabouts in time.
âIâm not disgusted,â Veronica sniffled. At this moment, her nose was so sour.
Jason looked at the girl in front of him with some surprise, but her reaction was much better than he had imagined.
âUncle Reed, can you contact Mason? I have a lot to say to him!â Veronica said again.
âSure.â Jason smiled slightly and took out his phone, dialing a number.
Veronica waited anxiously beside him, and finally, when the phone was answered and she heard Masonâs voice, tears welled up in her eyes and rolled down her cheeks.
âMason, itâs me!â Veronica hurriedly took the phone from Jasonâs hand and spoke to Mason on the other end, âIâve been trying to call you, but I couldnât get through. Iâm sorry for misunderstanding you.
Can you come back to the country soon? I have so much to say to youâ¦â
âOh, I see. So you knew it was a misunderstanding,â Masonâs voice came calmly, sounding distant, âButâ¦even if it was a misunderstanding, what does it matter? Veronica, to you, I am just your âlittle brotherâ no matter how much you have to say to me.â
Just a little brother who could be discarded at any time, not someone truly important in her life, someone she couldnât bear to lose.
This misunderstanding only made him see the reality more clearly.
âIâ¦â She choked up, wanting to say something more, but her throat felt like it was being blocked, and she couldnât speak.
She knew what kind of answer Mason wanted, but could she give it to him?
As he said, to her, he was just a younger brother, and she only saw him as a younger brother, without any other thoughts!
In her eyes, his change in feelings towards her was only because she had dated Daniel before, so he was like a child who had his toy taken away and wanted to take it back and occupy that position.
However, she couldnât put him in that role at all.
Meanwhile, Masonâs indifferent voice continued to come from her phone, âSo, donât contact me again in the future. I donât want to hear anything from you, Veronica. From now on, you are not the Veronica I know.â
