Crayson walked over and took a glance, looking confused. "Matching rings?"
"That's right." Veronica let out a chuckle. "I just picked out a brooch as his present for tomorrow. As for this pair of matching rings, it's for our marriage. When I become the head…"
She deliberately phrased her words that way. After taking a glance at the sales assistant, she lowered her voice before she continued, "I plan to marry him after everything is over. What do you think?"
"Haha, I agree, of course."
Crayson, who had just been filled with worry earlier, finally let out a sigh of relief, thinking that his worry had been unnecessary. So she had been picking out her wedding ring; that was great news.
After picking out the brooch and matching rings, Veronica went to pay the bill.
As they walked out of the jewelry store, she said to him, "Crayson, you have to keep it a secret from Mat. I want to give him a surprise."
In other words, she was hinting for him to let Mateo know as soon as possible so that he would be overjoyed. Expectedly, when Crayson and Veronica returned to Hayley's manor, he immediately gave Mateo a call.
"Mateo, I have good news for you."
"What is it, Grandpa?"
"Haha, when we were on the way back, Veronica went to the jewelry store to buy a set of matching rings. She's planning to get married to you after the ascension ceremony."
Hearing that, Mateo felt as if he were on cloud nine. "I know."
