Chapter 876 Top Secret
Hendrey parked his car by the side of the road and gazed into the distance. He saw Eleanor, who was
in a red dress, getting into a vehicle and departing.
Then, Veronica turned around to face Iron Pillar. The man raised his hand to brush away the hair
framing her face. Their proximity was somehow suggestive.
Hendrey had his suspicion until the recent scene unfolded right before his eyes. Now, it was replaced
by the affirmation that the man was none other than Matthew.
“How is he alive?” The truth hit him hard as he struggled to believe it. The realization belatedly dawned
on him. It explained why they couldn’t find the culprit behind the ambush on Zac.
It seemed like it had something to do with Matthew. Last night, Zac arranged a meeting with Veronica
and drugged her. However, Xavier arrived in time and saved her.
After Matthew learned about it, he went straight to dealing with Zac and broke the other man’s arm. If

Clenching his hands around the steering wheel, he thought about Matthew’s plan. It was at the same
time when Matthew, who was standing outside the nearby shop, cast a glance in Hendrey’s direction.
Matthew’s lips parted as if he was talking to Veronica. Then, she turned to look in Hendrey’s direction
too.
The pair stared right at him, but at the very next second, they withdrew their gazes and held each
other’s hands before walking into the shop.
Hendrey’s eyes were wide in surprise at their indifference. It did not make sense to him. If Matthew
needed a disguise, the pair would not have reacted with such an attitude when they saw him.
Hendrey scanned his surroundings. There weren’t any other familiar faces but him. It took only one
second for him to realize that the pair didn’t give a damn about him. Thus, they saw no point in
pretending in front of him.
In One Piece Restaurant, Matthew was holding Veronica’s hand as he led her upstairs. She couldn’t
help but worry. “Hendrey saw us. I think he will tell Zac right away.”
After all, they were birds of a feather.
“It’s no big deal. It’s only a matter of time until word gets to him.” Matthew’s fingers caressed the back
of Veronica’s hand as if reluctant to let go. As they ascended the stairs, he continued, “It’s more difficult
to deal with Eleanor at the moment.”
“You’re right. She’s giving us a hard time.” Veronica sighed. “The hunting ceremony is around the
corner. I have a feeling that Master Crayson and Hayley are planning something big. After all, they
have been training her for the special occasion. They won’t give up before making the best use of her.”
Her words went right to the heart of the matter.
At the same moment, a few major figures visited Hayley at her house.
As he watched the people around him, Crayson drew on his cigarette before he began with a stern
voice, “I just got word that Hendrey placed Tiffany under confinement.”
“Indeed. Since the hunting ceremony is approaching, we must rescue her as soon as possible.”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“Of course, or else the Young Lord will have to attend the hunting ceremony herself.”
“Tanya has a meticulous plan to lure us into the trap. The Young Lord mustn’t attend the ceremony.”
“That’s right. Waylen, what do you think?”
…
Their discussion grew inaudible as they were all talking at once.
From time to time, Crayson drew on his cigarette in silence. After a long time, he casually stated,
“Tiffany’s identity was created in the first place for this moment. Thus, everything should go according
to the original plan.”
Hayley held a cup and sipped the coffee. “I’ll be counting on you. Tanya is both cunning and cautious.
Therefore, Veronica will still have to attend the ceremony with me.”
“Don’t worry, Madam Hayley. You can count on us. We’ve got everything covered.” One of them
nodded and added, “The hunting ceremony is happening in three days. We must rescue Tiffany
tomorrow night at the latest. Or else, we won’t be able to proceed with the plan.”
“Leave it to us. However, Master Waylen, we’ll have to hand her over to you after that. You and Mateo
are the last link in our chain of plans.”
