Chapter 936 Full of Tricks
Veronica was racking her brain to persuade Crayson because she knew that it had been one whole
night since Matthew disappeared, so Crayson had to know where he was! Also, the most probable
reason why she had dispatched so many people but still received no news was that her master had
deliberately kept alert and prevented her men from following him.
She rose to her feet and poured themselves some tea before proffering a cup to him. "Master, you
should think about what I've just said. I'll wait for you." She quietly sat down and sipped her tea.
Suddenly, she thought of something and added, "This restaurant belongs to Matt. Since he can open a
restaurant in the hidden clan in such a short period, it shows that he is highly capable. Moreover, half of
the tea sold in this restaurant comes from the hidden clan, while the other half is from Bloomstead.
With his marketing campaign, he managed to sell more premium Bloomstead tea than the local tea

"What are you trying to say?" Crayson, who had been quiet for a long time, finally piped up.
Veronica smiled. "What I want to say is that Matt is a great help to you guys in reclaiming the throne,
but you guys see him as the enemy. Wouldn't that be causing more trouble for you guys?" She blew on
her tea and took another sip.
In the meantime, there was a conflict happening inside Crayson. He was thinking about her words and
weighing the pros and cons. While drawing his tobacco pipe, he blew out a thin layer of smoke through
his nostrils before sipping his tea and putting it back down. Finally, he shook his head. "I have no idea
where Matthew is."
He watched Veronica grow up and knew she was intelligent and full of tricks. Since she could guess his
schemes and voice them out, it meant she had a backup plan. Therefore, he did not dare to believe
her.
"Oh." She drank her tea and nodded fervently. "You don't know where he is? Then, forget it." She then
set her cup down and propped her chin on the table. "To tell you the truth, you seem to not understand
that you're not the only option I have."
"What does that mean?" Crayson frowned as his eyes filled with alarm.
"Literally." With a mocking smile, Veronica taunted, "You being my master is the reason why our
conversation can last until now. However, I've already given you a chance, but you didn't grasp it, so
our cooperation ends here."
"What are you trying to do?" With eyes widened in anger, he seemed to have thought of something.
"Since you don't want to cooperate with me, I'll just go to Tanya. I believe I'm also valuable to her—me
in exchange for Matthew. Do you think she would agree to that?"
Since Veronica had no other choice, she could only burn her boat. Once she finished, Crayson's face
looked grim as he slapped the table in a rage. "How dare you do that!"

"First, you'd need to see if you have the capability to leave this place."
"Are you sure about that?" She smiled. "Master, you're not the only one in the world who's full of
schemes."
The deliberate provocation made him so furious that his eyes widened in fury, and his veins protruded
from his forehead. When he attempted to stand up, he felt weak and fell back hard on the couch,
plopping onto it helplessly.
"W-What have you done?" he questioned her before glancing at the teacup on the table and instantly
understanding what had happened. Indeed, he had underestimated her.
Meanwhile, she sat in her spot leisurely before looking at the cup in front of the old man. "Nothing
much. Just a little extra something to your tea."
