Chapter 890 The Announcement of Her Identity
As soon as Hayley saw Veronica walk over, Hayley took a few steps toward Veronica and stretched out
a hand affectionately before saying gently, “Take my hand, and I’ll lead you there.”
Today, she would announce to everyone that Veronica was her biological daughter and the future
successor of the hidden clan. In fact, no one would know this, but Hayley had waited for this moment
for ages, and she had looked forward to it so much.
“No, that’s not necessary. I am fine going there by myself.” Veronica disliked Hayley and didn’t want to
hold hands with the latter. Besides, Veronica had no intention of putting on a loving mother-daughter
act in front of the crowd.
“Alright. Let’s go then.” Hayley was fine with that and didn’t force Veronica. The group left together and
headed toward the hunting ceremony event.
There were a lot of people in attendance at the hunting ceremony, and the venue of the event was a
large, football field-sized stadium that had been manually leveled.
The hunting ceremony was an annual event, so the stadium was well-equipped.
There was an empty patch in the middle of the stadium with tables and chairs arranged all around.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThere was also a reinforced parasol on each table which served as a sunshade and could also shelter
the people from the rain.
Meanwhile, on top of the stage were the Ledger Clan, followed by senior officials of the hidden clan,
distinguished families, and various important businessmen taking their spots on stage according to
their ranks.
There was a large screen behind the stage, and everything on the stage was projected onto the
screen.
The entire event felt like a sports competition.
During this event, Tanya would announce Veronica’s identity to the crowd, so Hayley and Veronica
were also given the rare opportunity to take a seat on the stage.
As the crowd entered the venue, there was some staff assigned to lead them to their seats. Hayley and
Veronica were led on stage and took their seats next to Liam.
Tanya was seated in the best spot on stage, with her children Eleanor and Dominik on both sides of
her. There were also a few princes and princesses that Veronica hadn’t seen before. Finally, Liam was
at the end of the line with Veronica, Hayley, and Randy by his side.
“Psst.”
As soon as Veronica took her seat, Liam whistled at her to attract her attention. He seemed very keen
to make his presence known to her.
“It’s been quite a while since we last met.” Liam winked at her with a smile as he spoke.
“Yes, it’s been quite some time indeed. I think it’s been barely seventy-two hours.” Veronica nodded
and replied solemnly.
“Hahaha! You’re quite right about that. It’s been seventy-two hours since we last saw each other, and I
miss you so badly,” Liam jested.
Matthew was Iron Pillar here, so he followed Crayson, Destiny, and Mateo to take a seat in the middle
section to the left of the stage.
The right side of the stage was closest to the stage, so Zac, Hendrey, and Xavier took their seats there,
followed by Crayson, Matthew, and the rest of the important businessmen from the hidden clan.
On the left side of the stage were the senior officials of the hidden clan, the distinguished families, and
their family members.
Subsequently, after a few rounds of the bang of drums going off, the hunting ceremony officially started.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmOne of the hosts went on stage to say a few words, and Tanya was the next one to give a speech.
She gave a long-winded official speech that went on endlessly.
Fortunately, the weather was great today, and there was a slight breeze during this cloudy day. The sun
was not scorching hot, and the weather was refreshing.
The unique area the hidden clan was found was quite cooling, and even though the sun was shining
brightly, the temperature would never exceed twenty-six degrees.
Just then, Veronica was bored out of her mind, but suddenly, Tanya mentioned her name.
Instantly, there was a round of applause as the crowd clapped excitedly.
Amongst the excited claps, Veronica somehow could hear the crowd whisper amongst themselves.
Subsequently, Veronica saw Hayley stand up and shoot her a significant look.
At that point, Veronica stood up together with Randy, who was next to Hayley.
Hayley took the microphone and made the introductions, “I would like to extend my gratitude to the
head of the clan for the warm invitation today and that’s why I’m able to be in attendance at this year’s
hunting ceremony with my daughter, Veronica, and Randy.”
The event gathered a multitude of people, so there were speakers set up in the venue. As such, even
though Hayley had a soft-spoken voice, her words were clearly audible and rang out throughout the
entire stadium.
Just then, as soon as her words hit, the crowd erupted into chaos.
