Chapter 610 Unwillingness to Part
However, Daniella tugged Veronica’s hand and led her into the house. They sat in the bedroom as the
mother clung unwillingly to the daughter’s hand. “Roni, I can’t believe that you’re about to get married
soon. After your marriage, you’ve got to learn to be a good wife and behave maturely. You can’t stay a
childish one forever, got it?”
“Gosh, Mom! I know that I’ll always be a child in your eyes.”
Veronica hugged Daniella affectionately and said coyly, “I’m not marrying off to somewhere distant and
I’ll be able to come home anytime I want. Besides, if you can’t bear to part with me, then move to the
city with me.”
“Your dad and I have lived in the countryside for our entire lives and we’re used to it here. We definitely
won’t be moving into the city. We just wish for a life of happiness for the two of you.”

Veronica could not help bursting into laughter. “Mom, I’m just getting married and it’s not a sad matter.
Why are you crying?”
As soon as Veronica said that, Daniella smacked her on the back of her head. “You little brat! You were
such a tiny little thing when you were a child…”
Daniella made a gesture with her hands. “I raised you tirelessly, and your dad and I worried so much
about you. Now that we’ve finally raised you into a wonderful woman, we haven’t even got to enjoy you
for more than two years and you’re about to marry into another family soon. I would of course be…” As
she spoke, there was a hitch to her voice and she cried, “Be sad to part with you.”
“I get it. I get it. I can’t bear to part with you guys either.”
Veronica was saddened to hear Daniella’s words. “It’s fine. We live so close to each other, so I’d be
able to come home regularly. During New Year’s, we can alternate between celebrating with Matthew’s
family and you guys annually. I’ve spoken to Matthew about this.”
“Those are just minor issues.” Daniella wiped her tears and got up to her desk before opening the
drawer to obtain a red box with worn-off paint.
Daniella sat next to Veronica and opened the box. “I’ve got something for you.”
“What’s this?” Veronica was very curious as she was unsure of what was inside the red box.
“This is for you.” Daniella opened the box and took out an item wrapped in red cloth from the box. It
was an emerald bracelet.
Though the bracelet appeared to be an antique, it looked as good as new. The emerald stones were
translucent in the air and the clarity was perfect too. At a glance, it was definitely high-grade emeralds.
“Mom, I can’t believe that you’ve kept such a precious object to yourself.”
Veronica beamed widely. “Were you planning to keep this from me if I didn’t get married?”
In reality, Veronica did not lack any jewelry as she had a bangle on her wrist which was gifted by
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmHendrey. Although Hendrey’s identity was now rather fishy, she had a strong feeling that the bangle
would be a life-saver during a critical moment, so she kept it on all this while.
Besides, Elizabeth had also gifted Veronica a bracelet back then and it was passed on from the earlier
Kings’ generation. She found the bracelet too precious, so she did not wear it and kept it stored at
Twilight Condominium.
“What are you on about? This bracelet was gifted to me by your grandmother and you’re our only
daughter, so who else would this go to?”
“Hahaha… I was just joking.” Veronica revealed a knowing smile.
Shortly after that, Tony walked into the room and glanced at Veronica before flinging the cigarette he
was puffing to the ground and putting it out. “Gosh, my daughter will no longer be part of our family
after her marriage. We should have given birth to a son.” Tony cracked a joke.
“Even if you had a son, Dad, I would remain your favorite child.” Veronica tilted her head while she
snuggled against Daniella’s shoulders.
Daniella glared at Tony. “Stop talking nonsense in front of our precious daughter!”
