Chapter 674 Acting Is Difficult
“Since you’ve sensed something, I believe both of them did as well. Miguel has been away for several
years and may not have suspected anything, but Skyler is a doctor. He should be able to see that the
wounds on the deceased man were all purposefully created.”
Veronica began to analyze the situation. Then, she grumbled, “And he is the type of person who cannot
keep a secret! He might have also told Miguel. Everyone is just putting on a show right now.”
Initially, Veronica thought that Skyler and Miguel would not have discovered the truth. However, given
that Thomas had picked up on it, she assumed that Skyler and Miguel would have suspected it as well.
“You’re right. That’s what I think too,” Thomas agreed while nodding his head.

Then, as if he thought of something, he asked, “Master Crayson seems to be feeling very heavy over
the matter. Should we tell him the truth?”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThe mention of Crayson reminded Veronica of Matthew’s words the night before. “Remember, don’t
trust anyone. Not even Master Crayson.”
With this in mind, Veronica pursed her lips and pondered for a moment. “That’s not necessary. The
fewer people who are aware of it, the better. We found out the truth because we are all close to Matt.
Conrad, on the other hand, had been away for several years and didn’t know Matt well, let alone Zac
and the others. What we need to do now is to let everyone believe that Matt is no longer alive.”
They were the only ones who knew Matt well, so in fact, it wasn’t surprising for them to discover the
truth.
At this moment, footsteps resonated from the outside.
Veronica quickly raised her gaze to exchange glances with Thomas. The next second, she started
shaking her head, pinching her thigh hard, causing tears to well up in her eyes, and cried out, “No! It’s
impossible! I don’t believe he died just like this!”
“Sorry for your loss, Young Mistress. But you have to be strong for the sake of Ada and Alan!” Thomas
right away played along with her.
Both of them acted with an ease comparable to a professional actor.
Crayson overheard their conversation as he entered the room. “Don’t be too sad. What happened has
happened. The most important thing right now is to return to the hidden clan. It is no longer safe to stay
here,” he said as he looked Veronica in the eyes, feeling sorry for her.
“No… I’m not going back. I want to stay with Matt here. I don’t want to go anywhere…”
While Veronica was crying, she stood up and staggered to Thomas. “Where’s ‘Matt’? Where is his
body? I want to be with him right now. Bring me to him.”
“His body is currently in the morgue. We have arranged with the aviation authority for a special plane to
return his body to Bloomstead around two hours later,” Thomas responded as he looked at her, taken
aback by how well she acted in her grief.
It seemed that Veronica did learn a few things during her time at Starshine Media Agency.
It was said that she later met Larry, who casted her in a science fiction film. Though her role was minor,
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmit was her first time acting in Starshine’s film and Sean, the boss, had specifically engaged a
professional trainer to teach her about acting.
It was all thanks to Sean that Veronica could now act so well.
“I need to see him right now. He’s not dead yet. He won’t die so easily.”
With tears flowing, Veronica walked past Thomas and Crayon and went straight to the lift entrance to
wait for the elevator.
However, at this instant, she took a sidelong glance and noticed a suspicious man standing near the
nurse’s station. Realizing that, she immediately squatted down and buried her face in her hands,
sobbing.
Thomas and Crayson followed her out of the ward. Witnessing her sorrowful state, one of them was
astounded by how well she acted, while the other’s heart ached for her but he had no idea how to
console her.
“Young Mistress, don’t get too worked up. You have to accept it…” Thomas quickly ran over and helped
her to her feet.
