Chapter 837 Great Ambitions Shall Not Be Bothered by Trivia
Meanwhile, Veronica was done with dinner as she was about to head over to Elysium Hotel with
Matthew after resting at Mountainside Gardens. Since Zac’s contact number was in her call log, she
was able to call him directly. “I’m here. Where are you?” “Room 507. I’m waiting for you.” Zac gave a
terse reply and hung up the call.
Right after staring at her phone, Veronica turned her attention to Matthew, who was standing next to
her, and entered the elevator. As the elevator headed upstairs, they both arrived on the fifth floor and
proceeded to make their way toward room 507 before knocking on the door.
After the duo stood at the door for a few moments, Zac finally answered the door, tilting his head while
looking at Veronica with a smile. “I’ve been expecting your arrival.” The next second, he stood aside
and opened the door further. “Please come inside.”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtVeronica responded by giving the man an icy glare and headed inside the room. However, when
Matthew followed right behind her, Zac stuck out his arm and stopped him from taking a step further.
“What’re you doing here?”
Apparently, Zac wasn’t happy with Matthew’s presence and wasn’t going to let him spoil his fun,
considering the trouble he went through until Veronica finally agreed to meet him.
“Wait for me outside.” Veronica looked back and gestured to Matthew with a wink, thinking there was
nothing to worry about because Matthew could just barge in should anything happen, as they were
merely separated by a door.
“Hmm… Alright, then,” Matthew responded, giving Zac a hostile stare, as if to warn him not to create
any trouble. As soon as he stepped outside, Zac immediately closed the door.
“What were you trying to say when we were outside the palace earlier today? Was it about my child?
What happened?” Veronica asked after she walked to the living room and sat on the couch.
“Haha. What’s the hurry? Just relax and grab a drink.” Zac took a bottle of red wine from the shelf and
grabbed two empty glasses. Then, he sat in front of Veronica and poured the red wine into them.
“You’re somewhat passive in the hidden clan. I also knew you were reluctant to come here, but if you
agree to help me, I could let you leave the hidden clan peacefully. So, are you sure you’re not going to
think about it, lady? I promise this is going to be a sweet deal for you.”
“Are you going to bribe me with the money you got from conning Yvonne’s parents?” Veronica couldn’t
help but recall the unfortunate incident that befell Yvonne earlier while sitting in front of Zac. After all,
she would never be able to forget the evil deeds that Zac and Conrad did together. “I don’t think my
conscience will ever let me accept that money.” She sneered with disdain.
Zac, who was pouring the wine into the glasses, reacted with a smile. “A man with great ambitions shall
never be bothered by trivia.” After putting the glass half full of red wine in front of Veronica, he added,
“The hunting ceremony is a trap for those who are brave enough to walk right into it. Therefore, are you
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmsure you can get away with it safely once you’re in it?”
Veronica glimpsed the glass of red wine on the table as her instinct prompted her to exercise caution
against Zac. Therefore, she didn’t even touch the red wine but went on to ask, “You’ve always worked
with Tiffany. What brings you to me now?”
“That lady? Haha.” Zac shook his head and took a sip of his red wine, crossing his legs while resting
his arm on the couch like a mafia boss. “Tiffany is nothing but a pampered and spoiled child. A lady like
her is bound to be a failure her whole life. The fact that she won’t stop seducing other men shows that
she doesn’t know her place at all.”
Although Tiffany thought she was clever enough to keep Zac in the dark about her secret approach to
Dominik and Liam, she had no idea that the man was keeping tabs on every move she made.
Nevertheless, Zac didn’t think it was worthwhile spending too much time on her, deeming her less
useful than she should be.
