As she watched the two walk away from her, Veronica felt a strange sense of sadness.
She shook her head and murmured, "It's fine."
Monica was concerned when she noticed Veronica wasn't looking well and asked, "Should we go somewhere else for dinner?"
"No." Veronica forced a smile.
Ivana and Ruka, on the other hand, could not stand the situation and continued to criticize Matthew.
Veronica tried several times to explain the situation to them, but she had no idea where to begin, especially to Ruka.
She had always been very kind to Veronica but she had a tendency to be reckless.
If she knew the truth, she definitely wouldn't be able to keep it a secret, so Veronica didn't dare to tell the truth.
At this time, the waiter began to serve the dishes one by one.
The group of people sat together and chatted. Veronica spoke very little and drank beer with her head down.
After the meal, they split up. Veronica said, "You guys go ahead. Be careful on the road."
Ruka wrapped an arm around Veronica's shoulder, and said, "If you're not comfortable living in Twilight Condominium, you can move in with me."
When they were upstairs just now, they asked Veronica where she was living now. Veronica told them that she lived in Twilight Condominium.
"It's great. I'm used to it now so it's no problem," Veronica assured Ruka.
At this moment, Ruka's driver drove over, and Veronica helped Ruka into the car.
The driver then waved to Veronica and drove away with Ruka.
Matthew and Eviette happened to be leaving One Piece Restaurant at the same time.
Veronica was standing on the side of the road when she turned around and saw the two.
For a brief moment, she had the impression that Matthew and Eviette were a perfect match as if they were meant to be.
She saw them, and they saw her too.
Eviette then approached Veronica with long strides, asking, "Miss Murphy, where are you going? Would you like a ride from Matt and me?"
Matt?
When they were upstairs, Veronica overheard Eviette call Matthew by that name. At the time, she thought she was hearing things.
