Chapter 1271 The Kind of Man You Fell For
"Alright, alright. Mr. Johnson, please don't be so formal." Tanya nodded, giving off an amiable air.
"Prince Dominik, Princess Eleanor, Prince Liam, I'll take my leave now." He bid farewell to each of them.
"Mr. Johnson, take care. We'll catch up later," Dominik responded after stepping forward, carrying himself in a gentlemanly manner.
After Hendrey left, the two soldiers at the door went to drag Tiffany along as they followed him out.
Tanya folded her hands behind her back and glanced back in the direction of Zac's bedroom, her eyes narrowing slightly. "Who do you think would dare to harm Zac?"
Liam placed the junk food in his hand on the table, clapped his hands, stood up, and brushed off the crumbs from his clothes. "There's nothing to discuss. He's already injured anyway. It's a waste of my time to think about it."
He portrayed the image of a spoiled child to the fullest.
Then, under the gaze of the three, he swaggered away.
Tanya couldn't hide her disappointment.
Among her sons, Liam was the most disappointing.
Dominik shook his head. "This matter is suspicious. Could it be related to Madam Hayley?"
Eleanor's eyes flashed with a hint of disdain as she shook her head. "Mother, why are you making things difficult for me? I don't know who it is, but it must be Prince Zac's enemy. Perhaps it's someone sent by Veronica to take revenge on him. But Prince Zac can't provide any evidence. He can only suffer in silence."
"Alright, alright. Mr. Johnson, please don't be so formal." Tanya nodded, giving off an amiable air.
Constantly thinking about Matthew, she didn't want to stay here any longer. She then waved goodbye to Tanya and Dominik. "Dominik, Mother, I'm leaving now. See ya."
After saying that, she bounced away.
Watching her figure, Tanya shook her head and let out a deep sigh. "Dom, won't you look at your sister? She's still so immature. How can I feel at ease? In the future, you must assist your sister well. Understand?"
As Dominik stood behind Tanya, his handsome face changed from its usual calm and elegance to a sudden sharpness. His gaze was filled with a cold chill, but his tone remained respectful as he answered, "Mother, you worry too much. This is what I should do. It's our duty to share the burdens and solve the difficulties for the hidden clan, isn't it?"
At the parking lot.
Xavier said to Antheena, "You go up to the car and wait for me. I have something to say to Veronica."
Antheena frowned slightly with a hint of unwillingness in her eyes, but she didn't show it too obviously.
Constontly thinking obout Motthew, she didn't wont to stoy here ony longer. She then woved goodbye to Tonyo ond Dominik. "Dominik, Mother, I'm leoving now. See yo."
After soying thot, she bounced owoy.
Wotching her figure, Tonyo shook her heod ond let out o deep sigh. "Dom, won't you look ot your sister? She's still so immoture. How con I feel ot eose? In the future, you must ossist your sister well. Understond?"
As Dominik stood behind Tonyo, his hondsome foce chonged from its usuol colm ond elegonce to o sudden shorpness.

At the porking lot.
Xovier soid to Antheeno, "You go up to the cor ond woit for me. I hove something to soy to Veronico."
Antheeno frowned slightly with o hint of unwillingness in her eyes, but she didn't show it too obviously.
After all, it took a lot of effort for her to become close to Xavier. She didn't want him to be cold toward her again because of her "immaturity."
"Okay."
She turned and got into the car, closing the door.
Veronica and Matthew walked over behind her.
When the two stopped in front of Xavier, Veronica uttered, "I'm sorry you had to go through that."
She felt guilty about this matter.
Others might not know that Xavier was innocent, but she knew it very well.
"What's this? Too much of a coward to step out now?"
Xavier ignored Veronica and contemptuously asked Matthew.
"I won't argue if that's what you want to think."
He was tempted to reveal his identity, but Veronica repeatedly stopped him, telling him not to act impulsively.
Matthew had no choice but to follow her wishes.
"Huh, how ridiculous."
A sarcastic smile appeared on Xavier's lips. "Veronica, so this is the kind of man you fell for."
In the past, he used to affectionately call Veronica "Roni."
After what happened yesterday, their relationship had changed a lot, and he had become much colder toward Veronica in his attitude and tone.
