Chapter 864 Zac Lost His Hand
Eleanor stepped around Veronica and over to Matthew’s side to wrap her arms around his arm
affectionately. However, Matthew withdrew his arm. “Please control yourself, Princess Eleanor.”
As he said that, he took Veronica and placed her between him and Eleanor. Matthew’s rejection of
Eleanor prompted Veronica’s heartfelt grin. “What exactly are you laughing about?”
Eleanor had a thunderous expression as she grumbled, “Aren’t you overjoyed that your spouse has
rejected me?” She disliked hiding and preferred to express her thoughts directly.
Veronica shrugged. “Your Highness, I believe he rejects you because of my presence. How about I go
on first and give you two some privacy?”
“Tsk! I don’t require your assistance.”
Eleanor extended her hand and embraced Veronica’s arm. “I adore your husband, so I’ll use my charm
to sway him without your help.”
“Well, I admire Your Highness’ self-confidence.”

Veronica had to find Eleanor unpleasant as the latter was her love rival. However, she couldn’t despise
someone so honest.
Veronica had to admit Eleanor was rather charismatic.
“Thank you so much. All you have to do is ensure your husband doesn’t hurt me as badly as he did
Zac.”
Eleanor spoke of nothing but the truth.
Veronica then turned her head and looked at Matthew. They smiled and exchanged glances.
“There’s nothing we can hide from you, Your Highness,” Veronica murmured.
“Of course not. I can’t be the head of the clan if I’m not smart enough.”
“You’ll be the head and yet, you’re still close to me. Aren’t you scared I’ll take advantage of the situation
and assault you?”
“If you wanted to accomplish it, you would have done it long ago. What’s the point in waiting until now?”
Eleanor beamed as she added, “Why do you think I like you both? It’s not just because you two are
attractive.”
“Do tell.” Truth was, Veronica was intrigued.
Eleanor rolled her eyes when she heard that. “It’s obviously due to your charisma.”
“Oh? Thank you, Your Highness.”
Veronica was amused.
Led by the servants, they walked through the front yard together and they soon arrived at the backyard
and met Zac.
Zac was still dressed in the same silver-gray suit, but his left arm was covered in gauze and the palm
had vanished.
He sat in the front seat while staring at the Ledgers. “When I arrived at the hidden clan, you assured
me of my protection. Should you explain yourself now?”
Tanya, Dominik, Liam, Hendrey, and the others were present, except for Antheena and Xavier.

want to do with him?”
An IV pole next to Zac held a bag of intravenous fluid. His skin was as white as paper. He was
seriously hurt and had only recently woken up.
“Where’s Xavier? Bring him to me…”
Halfway through his sentence, he noticed Eleanor, Veronica, and ‘Iron’ enter the room.
“Prince Zac, I hope you’re doing well.”
Eleanor let go of Veronica and stepped forward in a compassionate demeanor. “I rushed over when I
heard you were hurt. I’m sorry for not protecting you well.”
Veronica and her husband stood off to one side without speaking.
The injured Zac could only think of it as an embarrassment. He glanced at Eleanor after hearing her
remark, but his gaze was drawn to Veronica.
At that point, he had a keen gaze and was gritting his teeth with rage, but some terrible things
prevented him from speaking.
“Where’s Xavier? Bring him in this instant!”
After being injured previously, Zac bled excessively and passed out from the pain.
