"The past is in the past. I really hope you can live a good life after you come to Bloomstead." Veronica sighed.
Both of them seemed to have their thoughts returned to the hidden clan, reminiscing about everything that happened there.
Eleanor was missing her deceased mother, while Veronica thought of Crayson.
Human emotions were complex. She had a love-hate relationship with Crayson.
After a little over an hour, they arrived at the Langston Film and Television Media Company.
The sedan parked in the basement, and Veronica got out of the car with Eleanor, entering the elevator together.
Eleanor, holding her handbag, was still touching up her makeup in front of the mirror.
Veronica couldn't help but tease. "Enough with the touch-ups. Even without makeup, you can outshine everyone. Don't you know that women can be very jealous?"
Eleanor put away her lipstick, her beautiful eyes sparkling with a playful smile, seductive and charming. "The cosmetics were given to me by Troy. If I don't use them, wouldn't it be a waste?"
"Troy gave them to you?"
In her memory, Troy was a cold and indifferent person, who had never had a girlfriend.
How could he give Eleanor cosmetics?
This guy couldn’t have had a sudden change of heart, could he?
"Yes. I challenged Troy to a competition. I said that if I won, he had to give me a gift. Then... um..." She raised the lipstick in her hand. " I took him to a high-end cosmetics store and got a complete set of cosmetics worth over thirty hundred thousand from him. He was so angry that he ignored me for a whole day."
Veronica was speechless.
She had been overthinking things after all.
Ding—
The elevator arrived at the 31st floor, and the doors opened.
The two of them stepped out of the elevator and saw Larry Freeman's female assistant right in front of them.
Veronica greeted her, "Hello."
"Miss Murphy, Larry is over there. Please follow me," the assistant said, unable to help but take a few more glances at Eleanor, seemingly amazed by her beauty.
"Thank you."
