Her Biliionaire Husband (Veronica and Matthew)
Chapter 1021 Hayley's Death

Veronica reached out and took the jade pendant from Dominik, seeing that the rope that was tied to the pendant was stained with dried blood.

As she held it in her palm, it was as though she could sense the pain Crayson experienced when he suffered the head injury where blood gushed out of his wound.

"On the day of the ceremony, a fight broke out between the Ledgers Clan and Elrod Clan, resulting in many casualties. When I led my men into the arena, my mother had already disappeared. Later, my mother's guards told me that she was injured and fled. Waylen pursued her, but they ended up in a dead end.

My mother had nowhere to go, so she fought Waylen head-on. They both fired their guns almost simultaneously and collapsed together.

Before Waylen died, he removed this jade pendant and gave it to Destiny, hoping that she would give it to Hayley.

But I arrived with my men and arrested Destiny on the spot.

Later, Destiny learned from a fellow inmate in prison that Hayley had also died, so she asked me to give this to you." Dominik briefly explained the situation to Veronica.

Hearing that, Veronica gripped the jade pendant and nodded to Dominik.

"Thank you."

"It's getting late. We should leave too."

Matthew held Veronica's hand and looked at Dominik with a faint smile.

"Goodbye."

"All the best," Dominik said.

With that, Skyler, Shirley, Troy, Lazlo, Dean, and the others bid farewell to Dominik one by one and boarded the ship.

Their ship slowly sailed away from the dock and gradually disappeared into the distance.

Dominik stood on the shore as he watched the ship sail away.

He sighed silently and remained silent for a long time.

Everything that had happened recently seemed like a dream.

However, he didn't have time to dwell on it too much, as he had to return to the palace as soon as possible to deal with political affairs and the remaining rebels who attempted to overthrow the government. After everyone left, Lamia appeared at the port.

Tears welled up in her eyes as she watched the ship sailing further away into the distance.

"Sorry, I'm late."

Her luggage slipped from her hand, and she fell weakly to the ground with tears streaming down her face.

Only on the day of the ascension ceremony of the head of the Hidden clan, did Lamia replace out about Hendrey's true identity.

However, two days ago, 'Zac' left, and Lamia thought that Hendrey had left with Zac because she had not seen Hendrey since that day.

On the day she learned that Veronica was going back to Bloomstead, she wanted to hurry over and return to Bloomstead with them, but she didn't expect to be a step too late after driving all the way there. Hendrey, are we really never going to meet again in our lifetime? When Hayley was alive, Lamia had a family.

However, on the day of the ascension ceremony of the head of the Hidden clan, Waylen and many elders of the Elrod Caln died in battle, representing the complete failure of the clan's 20-year-long scheme to seize power.

Veronica didn't lose her memory, nor was she under control, and Waylen was the only one that Hayley could count on.

Unfortunately, Waylen also passed away.

Her dream of more than 20 years was shattered, and Hayley, who couldn't accept the reality, chose to end herself by leaping off a building.

She knew that even if she didn't leave the world, she'd be arrested by Dominik, the new head of the clan, and would ultimately be executed. Rather than becoming a prisoner and dying without dignity, she preferred to take matters into her own hands.

Without Hayley around, Lamia was alone and at risk of being arrested and imprisoned by Dominik.

When she learned that Veronica was leaving, she wanted Veronica to take her away.

Alas, fate was cruel, and she was left alone in the Hidden Clan.

"Are you okay?"

A tall and handsome man looked at Lamia, who was sitting on the ground, and he quickly approached her to help her up.
