CHAPTER 1100 SPECIAL NOTICE

Veronica walked into the cafe and looked around only to spot Xavier, who was wearing a black short- sleeved shirt and light blue jeans, sitting by the window.

He still had neat short hair and a wheat-toned complexion. Although the scars on his face did affect his handsomeness, they also enhance his mature and masculine charm.

He exuded an air of a mob boss and possesses a distinct and captivating appearance which made him draw people's attention.

Veronica walked over to where he was sitting with a backpack on her shoulders and sat down opposite him. "Are you the only one here? Where's Antheena?"

Xavier sat on the deck, held a cup of coffee, and took a sip as he observed Veronica.

Although they hadn't been apart for very long, seeing her again seemed to relieve him.

She was dressed in white and red combination casual sportswear, with her hair tied up in a high ponytail and a backpack on her back. She was full of youthful energy, like a bright and cheerful girl.

It was hard to imagine that she was already the mother of two.

"Others age as they get older but you seem to get younger," Xavier complimented her sincerely.

The midday sunlight poured through the glass, casting its ray upon her. The sunlight accentuated her radiant, almost glowing fair skin, her rosy lips, and her captivating eyes. With delicate features and a subtle smile on her face, she exuded an air of elegance. She was like a woman that was out of the

world.

"You teaser."

Veronica smiled and snapped her fingers at the waiter. "A cup of Jamaican Blue Mountain Coffee please."

The waiter nodded. "Please wait."

After saying that, he turned and went to the counter.

Xavier leaned forward slightly as he rest his arm on the table, and asked lowering his voice, "When Hendrey and I got caught, what exactly happened during that time? What's the story behind Anthony's death?"

Veronica's eyelids drooped slightly, and she showed a hint of caution in response to the sudden question.

Veronica dared not speak casually because Anthony's death was related to Matthew's safety.

She trusted Xavier, but if she was to reveal the truth, it would mean that she betrayed Matthew.

"The past is in the past. Now that we're back, we should forget the things that are related to the hidden clan." Veronica didn't answer his question.

Xavier met her gaze for a moment, and he felt complicated.

He knew that Veronica was wary of him. This belongs to : ©.

This feeling made Xavier suddenly feel sad, but he still smiled faintly. "Alright, I'll listen to you. But..."

"What's wrong?"

"Conrad is investigating the cause of Anthony's death. You and Matthew better be prepared. You should be aware of Anthony's identity and his close relationship with the three of them."

Although Veronica had kept some things secret, Xavier still told her everything he knew without reservation.

His words made Veronica feel uncomfortable.

She glanced at Xavier and then turned to look out the window. She looked at Bloomstead where tall buildings stood bathed in sunlight. Everything was so peaceful.

At a glance, she felt the beauty of the world, but her heart was slightly tinged with pain.

"Xavier, you don't have to deliberately tell me." Veronica sighed almost imperceptibly. "You have helped me a lot, and I owe you too much, more than what I could repay you."

Veronica already knew beforehand what Xavier just told her.

However, she knew that there was a difference between her knowing it and Xavier coming deliberately just to tell her that.

"I never wanted you to repay me. Am I… not your friend?" Xavier looked at her.

With her natural beauty, she was so beautiful that it made his heart skip a beat.

"Yes, we are indeed friends."
