บท 122: Verona's Decision 2

Verona scoffed. "Spare me the cryptic pronouncements, Father. Tell me! Tell me the ' grand' plan." She said 'grand' sarcastically which the man noticed but shrugged it off.

"It's… confidential," he said his voice steady, voice. "It's secret and this information is shared between me and other individuals. It's not only my secret, if it was I would have told you. Trust me, Verona, it's not something I can just tell anyone…"

"Interesting, so apparently, I'm considered 'anyone'," Verona giving a hollow laugh as she covered her face with her hand. "Is that it? Now I'm anyone?"

The man said. "No, of course not, It came out wrong, listen to me little Ver—"

"Don't call me that," Verona snapped. "Let's not try to pretend this reunion is anything but what it is – it's bad, really bad"

A heavy silence descended upon them. Finally, Verona rose, her decision made. "I think I've heard enough, D.A.D," she announced. "I'll be taking my leave."
