Chapter 742 In Trouble
“Your mother and I decided to bring Tiffany back, and…”
Crayson wanted to explain, but Veronica shot him an icy look. “Did I ask you? If you are going to
represent her on every single subject, then why did you bring me here? You could have done that back
in the city,” she interrupted Crayson.
One look, and Crayson could see the indifference and anger in her eyes. He thought she wouldn’t hate
him for bringing her home, since he practically raised her, but reality proved him wrong. He wondered if
she was hating him.

She never talked about the time Crayson and Destiny tried to harm Matthew. Nobody knew the weight
she was bearing, and nobody knew how much she was holding herself from making Crayson her
enemy. She didn’t have a choice in coming to this place. Nobody asked her if she wanted to. Nobody
but Matthew.
Hayley looked upset, and her face paled. She pursed her lips, sat down, and sipped some tea. Slowly,
she said, “We have our plan, and you don’t have to know about it for now. We have a long road ahead
of us. What you have to do now is master the clan’s language as soon as possible, or you’ll find it hard
to do anything here.”
“I can’t do anything but that?” For some reason, Veronica wanted to rebel. Instead of doing what
Hayley wanted her to do, she would stir trouble in the clan. The thought spread like wildfire and took
over her mind in a moment.
“The only thing you have to do now is master the clan’s language,” Hayley said solemnly.
A smile curled Veronica’s lips. “But why should I listen to you?” She turned her gaze to Crayson once
more. “And you. Have you asked if I wanted to come back?”
“Um…” Crayson had no answer. He had no idea what to say, since he never asked her what she

“I know you don’t like this, but I have no choice. I’m doing this for the people.” Hayley had no choice.

“I missed the part where that’s my problem. I can’t even get my sh*t together, and you expect me to
care for your people? Are you mad?”
“I know it’s unfair, asking you to stay. But we’ve discussed. Once you defeat Tanya, we’ll try to send
you away.” The look in Hayley’s eyes was genuine, unadulterated. Veronica couldn’t even doubt her.
“Just tell me what’s your Tiffany policy.” Veronica could let everything else slide, but she must know
what they were going to do with Tiffany, or it would be hard to guess their next plan.
Crayson and Hayley exchanged a look, but they said nothing. Veronica remained silent as well, but she
kept staring at them.
