Mateo wanted Veronica's opinion on it.
Veronica, on the other hand, propped one arm against the door frame while holding the knob on the other as she pondered for a second. "I'll just stay here since I like the place. The view is nice, and it's easy to get to the market."
Most importantly, the place was close to downtown, making it convenient for Matthew to visit her.
"Alright, then. I'll bring the learning materials over."
With that, Mateo went downstairs to return in no time with a large stack of books and papers in his arms. "Here you go. These are everything you need to learn the hidden clan dialect. You can look through them first."
"You said it yourself; this is the hidden clan dialect, and in case you've forgotten, I know nothing about it."
"Grandpa long reminded me to prepare a local version. You'll be able to understand," he explained.
Veronica quirked a brow slightly in response as she took the learning materials from him. "How thoughtful of your grandfather."
The young man heard the insinuation in her tone. Nonetheless, he didn't respond to it and instead played dumb. "Yeah, he really sees you as a granddaughter."
"Anything else?" Veronica turned grim the next second. Even the surrounding air turned chilly.
At some point, she started rejecting Crayson a little, no longer wanting to hear anything about him.
"That's all. Roni—"
Slam!
The poor young man hadn't even finished his words when Veronica took a step back with the materials in her hand and slammed the door shut, keeping him out.
"Roni, I know you can't forgive Grandpa just yet, but I hope you can understand him. He has a good reason."
