The people on both sides remained silent, each with thoughts. “Now that we’ve found the cause, how do you plan to solve it, Your Highness?” Matthew, who was sitting next to Veronica, asked out loud.
In the side hall, he had removed his makeup and reapplied it before leaving. So, except for Eleanor and Veronica, no one knew his true identity.
“Well, hmm…” Dominik hesitated. “Miss Murphy, Liam was impulsive and rude just now. Although it was an accident, we must take responsibility. What compensation would you need, Miss Murphy?”
Veronica thought it was ironic. Could they give her the compensation she wanted? “Just give me money. I’m a commoner. I like money.”
After coming to the hidden clan, Crayson and the others gave her money so she could spend it. She would have to ask someone else for it if they didn’t give her money. It felt horrible having to ask for money.
After Veronica finished speaking, she vaguely heard someone sneer, secretly mocking her. But she didn’t care at all. After all, she was in a problematic situation exactly because she had no money.
Before she came to the hidden clan, all her belongings were confiscated. When she asked Crayson for them afterward, he said they were left in Castron. What was she supposed to do about that?
“Hahaha! Miss Murphy, don’t say that. We are all ordinary people.” Dominik let out a hearty laugh and asked Eleanor with a tilt of his head, “What do you think about 700 thousand?”
“You decide, Dominik.” Eleanor had no objections. However, her gaze fell on Matthew like she wanted more.
Dominik had a servant bring over a card, got up, and walked to Veronica. As he handed the card to her, he reassured her, “Miss Murphy, this is our heartfelt gift. Thank you for your generosity. Rest assured, as I will personally bring Liam to you to apologize when he wakes up.”
He gave her a specially made black card, which didn’t require a password and could be used to withdraw money from a specific bank. This black card was equivalent to a check in her country.
700 thousand was just a drop in the bucket for the hidden clan palace. Also, they valued their reputation more. Otherwise, it would be of no benefit to anyone if today’s incident were to be exposed. Although it would ruin the reputation of the Ledger Royal Family, Veronica would also be humiliated. The best way to resolve this was through private conversation.
“Now that everything is settled, we’ll leave first.” Veronica accepted the bank card without holding back. She then got up and waved to Matthew before leaving with him. Since Liam had been beaten up, she had vented her anger.
Fortunately, she didn’t suffer much damage and could reluctantly accept the compensation. After the two of them left, the others gradually dispersed.
In the main hall, Eleanor held a teacup and took a sip, casually asking, “Dominik, is it really because of the combination of drugs that Liam had such a reaction?”
“Don’t you believe it?” Dominik looked at the group of people who were gradually leaving, asking indifferently.
“No, I was just asking.” Smiling brightly, Eleanor got up and stretched lazily. “Ah, I’m so stiff all over. I’m so tired. Dominik, I’m going back to sleep. Goodnight.”
“Okay, goodnight,” he responded . Eleanor skipped away happily, leaving the main hall. It wasn’t until she reached the corner of the corridor, away from the main hall, that she returned to her normal posture, walking with a high and cold demeanor.
The joy in her beautiful eyes had long disappeared and was replaced by a layer of coldness. There was something suspicious about tonight’s events. Except for Antheena and Tiffany, as well as Matthew and his wife, everyone else had explicitly asked a doctor about this matter after leaving.
The conclusion drawn was just as the palace doctor of the hidden clan said today-it was the combination of two drug effects that produced the effects of rosemary.
They went from initial skepticism to finally having to believe. After all, even though Veronica also drank the alcohol, she was perfectly fine.
