CHAPTER 1277 BY TOMORROW NIGHT

Hendrey parked the car by the roadside and watched as Eleanor, wearing a red dress, got into a sedan and drove away.

Veronica then turned to face Iron Pillar, who gently brushed a strand of hair from her cheek, their posture intimate.

If Hendrey had any doubts before, he was now almost certain that the person in front of him was Matthew!

"He...not dead!"

The sudden revelation shocked Hendrey for a long time.

He eventually understood why the mastermind behind Zac's injury couldn't be found.

It turned out that Matthew was the culprit.

Last night, Zac met with Veronica and drugged her, but Xavier arrived just in time to save her.

After learning about this, Matthew confronted Zac and crippled his hand.

With this explanation, everything fell into place.

Hendrey tightly clenched the steering wheel, contemplating what Matthew was up to when he noticed Matthew looking in his direction near a shop not far away.

He moved his mouth as if saying something to Veronica, and then Veronica turned to look at him.

Their gazes locked onto him. However, it only lasted for a moment before they looked away and entered the shop holding each other's hands.

That was why they didn't even bother to pretend.

At One Piece Restaurant.

Veronica was somewhat worried when Matthew led her up the stairs. "Hendrey saw us. He will immediately inform Zac, won't he?"

After all, they were on the same side.

"He will find out sooner or later. It's just a matter of time."

The man's fingers caressed the back of her hand, seemingly reluctant to let go. As they climbed the stairs, he mentioned, "The most troublesome person is Eleanor."

"Right, I'm also worried about her." Veronica sighed. "Since the hunting ceremony is just around the corner, I keep feeling that Master Crayson and Hayley are up to something big. They won't easily give up this pawn of theirs."

Veronica hit the nail on the head.

At this moment, several important figures arrived at Hayley's house.

Crayson looked at them, took a puff of his cigarette, and said with a serious tone, "I just received news that Tiffany has been detained by Hendrey."

"Yes. The hunting ceremony is only a few days away. We must rescue Tiffany as soon as possible."

"Of course. If we don't save her, do you expect our Young Lord to attend the hunting ceremony?"

"Tanya Ledger has planned everything carefully. It's a trap. The Young Lord cannot go."

"Right. Waylen, what do you think?"

...

The people spoke one after another.

Crayson silently smoked his cigarette. After a while, he spoke slowly, "We created Tiffany just for this

day. Everything must proceed according to the original plan."

Hayley sipped her coffee. "I will be counting on all of you, then. Tanya Ledger is cunning and extremely cautious. Veronica still needs to accompany me on the day of the ceremony."

"Don't worry, Madam Hayley. With us here, everything has already been taken care of." Someone nodded and continued, "As the hunting ceremony is in three days, we must rescue Tiffany by tomorrow night at the latest. Otherwise, the plan cannot proceed." owns © this.

"We will handle this. But Master Waylen, once we rescue her, I leave the remaining tasks to you. Only you and Mateo can handle them."
