Chapter 838 She Outsmarted Herself

• Veronica curled her lips upward, unsurprised by Zac's words. "I only came here because I thought I could hear about my children, but if you don't say anything about them, I guess there's nothing else we both can talk about." She then paused for a few seconds and added, "As for the deal you mentioned, do you think I'd work with someone who killed my husband?" Only a fool would work with a wolf in sheep's clothing. Veronica wondered if she was so dumb in Zac's eyes that it made him think she would agree to work with him.
• "Haha." Zac swirled the glass in his hand while keeping his eyes fixed upon the wine in it, ignoring Veronica's response, as if he was absolutely confident about his proposition.
• Thinking Zac had no intention of answering her question, Veronica stood up and headed outside. However, as soon as she stood up, her vision suddenly blacked out shortly before she collapsed onto the couch. In a matter of seconds, Veronica suddenly felt all her energy drained from her body, struggling to move a muscle. "W-What did you do to me?" She glared at Zac and questioned the man, but despite using all her strength to talk, her voice still sounded so soft that it was barely audible.
