âHa, when did I have a good deal with you?â Crispin said irritably. âYour daughter is quite something.
She kept saying she had nothing to do with Mason from the Reed family, but when I tried to take her to the elevator, she hugged him and shouted for help! Is that nothing to do with him? Do you think Iâm stupid?â
Thinking about what happened last night, Crispin felt both scared and disgusted.
He thought Veronica and Mason from the Reed family were a thing of the past, but yesterday, Mason had taken Veronica away again. Who knows what kind of relationship they have! If Mason and Veronica had any private contact and he still forced Veronica to be with him, he would be done for!
If it werenât for Archerâs hint, he wouldnât have been interested in Veronica at all!
Thinking of this, Crispin hated Archer and Rosalind even more.
âSince your Barlow family has the Reed family as a high branch, thereâs no need for our Clark family to join in. You can go to the Reed family for your business,â Crispin made it clear that he wouldnât discuss the deal anymore.
Archer and Rosalind looked at each other, each with their own suspicions.
After leaving Crispin, Rosalind asked Archer, âDoes Veronica still have contact with Mason?â
âHow would I know? That girl never tells me anything. Besides, if I did know, would I still have to beg the Clark family for business? And even let Veronica entertain Crispin?â Archer replied.
Roselind thought about it and said, âSo, Veronica and Mason are stillâ¦â
âLetâs ask that girl. If she really still has contact with Mason, then the Barlow family will have a chance to rise again!â Archer exclaimed excitedly.
The Barlow family used to rely on the Reed family and lived a luxurious life.
Archer had asked his daughter many times to apologize to Mason and see if they could reconcile, but his daughter refused and Mason had been abroad for years and was hard to find.
In the evening, when Veronica finished work and returned to her residence, she once again saw her father and stepmother in front of her door.
She frowned, feeling a bad premonition.
Archer put on a fatherly face and said, âVeronica, you have been in contact with Mason again. Why didnât you tell me?â
Veronica was startled. How did her father know?!
Rosalind, who was beside her, seemed to sense Veronicaâs doubts and said quickly, âVeronica, donât deny it. Mr. Ward said that Mason took you away from the hotel yesterday. We didnât see you come back last night and were very worried about you.â
So it was Crispin who told them!
Veronica breathed a sigh of relief and sneered, âWorried about me? If you were worried, why didnât you call me? You didnât even ask me a single question or look for me, but you say you were worried. Isnât that ridiculous?â
Rosalindâs face showed embarrassment.
âI donât think you need to worry about me. Iâm perfectly fine,â
Veronica added.
âSo tell me, whatâs going on between you and Mason? You left the hotel with him yesterday, right?
