Chapter 3525
Veronica arrived at the Reed family’s mansion to meet Mason.
Jasper looked at Veronica with some concern, her face pale. “Veronica, are you okay?”
“It’s okay,” Veronica said. “Jasper, when will Mason meet me?”
“It’s okay,” Veronica said. “Jasper, when will Mason meet me?”
“Mason… He should be coming down soon. Veronica, as long
as you explain the misunderstanding to Mason, everything should be fine,” Jasper comforted.
Veronica gave a bitter smile. She used to think that way too, but their encounter in court made her think otherwise.
Even she felt that Mason had already cast her out beyond the
threshold of his heart.
Fortunately, after a short while, Mason appeared on this side
of the staircase.
Veronica looked up and watched Mason walking down the stairs step by step. She quickly stood up and approached
him, saying, “The court decision was too hasty. Can you give me

some time to talk things over?”
“Okay,” Mason replied calmly and led the way towards the
main entrance of the house.

Veronica hurried to catch up with Mason, while Jasper watched them leave with a worried expression on his face.
It wasn’t until his phone rang with a video call that Jasper snapped out of his thoughts and answered the call.
On the phone screen, William’s face appeared instantly.
“Today is the court hearing, everything went smoothly, right?” William asked.
“Yes,” Jasper replied.
“Is Mason back today too?”
“Yes, he is. But… Mason seems a bit strange,” Jasper said.
“Strange?” William’s face showed confusion. “What do you mean by strange?”
“So…he treats Veronica like a stranger. Well, not exactly a stranger, but definitely not like before. Mason looks at
Veronica as if she’s someone he has no connection with,”
Jasper said after some thought.

William found it strange too, “Maybe Mason is still angry.”
“Let’s hope so,” Jasper replied.
“You’ll have a few more court hearings, right? I’ll come to Emerald City in a couple of days,” William said.
“Okay,” Jasper agreed, “But if you’re busy, it’s okay not to come. There shouldn’t be any unexpected surprises in
the hearings anyway.”

“No, I want to come over,” William said. “I want to be by your side, to see you in person, instead of just through a

on my phone.”
At that moment, his expression was incredibly serious, and
his gaze made Jasper’s heart race even though they were separated by a screen.

ancestral
hall, where Mason finally stopped.
“Do you remember when I told you about my grandparents’ story?” Mason suddenly said.

“Ah?” Veronica paused for a moment, then nodded and said, “I remember,”
“Well, then you should also remember how my grandfather
died,” his voice continued.
“Uh-huh,” she responded.
“He lost the will to live because he was abandoned by the person he loved, and chose to freeze to death in the icy
wilderness,” Mason murmured, looking towards the entrance of the ancestral hall. “When I first found out how my
grandfather passed away, I didn’t understand why someone would choose to die instead of living on.”
