"I think..." Unable to come up with any good ideas, she sighed. "You have to tell your parents."
It only made sense for Yvonne to take responsibility since she had given birth to the child.
Since she didn't have the basic capability to protect her child at all now, she had to rely on her parents. That was the best, and only, choice she had.
After listening to Veronica's view, Yvonne pursed her lips and fell silent.
"Mm." She only gave a brief reply after a long moment. "I will have no other choice, do I?"
Yvonne really regretted how things had become.
If only she had listened to Veronica back then, Yvonne was sure that she wouldn't be where she was now.
She had considered the series of problems that could arise after the child was born, but she never would have thought that her child would become both Conrad's tool' to get promoted and her 'weakness'.
"There is someone looking out for you by the door of the ward. Conrad shouldn't be able to act as he pleases," As she sat beside the bed, Veronica comforted Yvonne, who was at a loss.
She only left the hospital to rest at home after she stayed with Yvonne until some time had passed.
As she still had to go to work tomorrow and take photos, she must make sure she had adequate rest so that she could work in the best condition.
After returning home to wash up, Veronica went to lie in bed, and was looking at the ceiling when she couldn't help but sigh.
Her initial reason for working at Starshine was to hide the truth about her opening a company on the side. She never expected she would get so involved with her work.
It was probably because this was something she truly enjoyed doing.
She woke up early the next morning as usual.
For Crayson's sake, she headed back to First Meeting to work after she finished freshening up.
Crayson would come to knock on her door every morning without fail. He was even more on time than an alarm clock, and he would always drag her along for a morning run. He would then give her various intensive training.
Veronica immediately got up when she heard the knock on the door, for fear that he would disturb the other residents' sleep.
However, she had a feeling that the old man had been extra harsh on her training recently by increasing the intensity of her training. It was as if he was preparing for something.
After they went to the park, they practiced against each other for half an hour, and he then let her remain in a Horse
Stance by herself. At that point, Veronica, who was sweating buckets, began to beg for mercy. "Crayson, I have to go to work later. Can you let me rest for a bit?"
This isn't how someone is supposed to live life!
Her daily routine now consisted of her having to go for a run in the morning, then train for an hour before she went home to wash up and go to work. And in the afternoon, she had to deal with Vincere Games after getting off work.
The esports company was mainly involved in game competitions. Now that they had added a live broadcast segment and had recruited many live broadcast employees, they were planning to contract two Internet celebrities at a high fee.
Veronica almost felt out of breath with so many things happening every day.
Still, life was going at a pretty good rhythm for her.
At least this way, she wouldn't have the time to think about Matthew.
Crayson had a ruler in his hand when he walked in front of Veronica and tapped her on the head lightly. "What is the point of taking a break when you are in a Horse Stance? Back then when my master trained me, he used to make me stay in the pose for an entire morning. Look, you are not balancing your lower-" And so, his nagging began.
Veronica had heard those words so much that her eardrums had probably worn out.
"What are you saying, Crayson? Even though my skills aren't amazing right now, who would dare bully me? Besides, you said it yourself that your training is for keeping the body fit and healthy. I am very healthy now and I can put up a fight. Do I really have to keep doing this?"
She was so fatigued she thought she was on the verge of a breakdown.
Standing in a Horse Stance for an hour wouldn't usually be that big of a deal, but it felt rather uncomfortable for Veronica to remain in the pose while she was on her period.
"Nonsense!" The old man huffed and slapped the rule on her behind. "Lift your chin. Chest up. Tuck your core in. You better stand properly."
