"Veronica went looking for us today. Why do you keep letting yourself be a villain in her eyes?" Cedric asked Ram who was playing with one of Cedric's books.
"You know I'm even more powerless than her. I'm not of the blood. My very appointment in Lights and Abad TV is already a big issue among the elders." Ram told Cedric.
"Veronica doesn't know you're adopted?" Cedric asked Ram.
Ram grimly nodded.
"I've done what I can by delaying her marriage and making sure it's to someone she might like. She's had her whole childhood to try and like Miguel. He's honestly a better option than the man our parents wanted." Ram told Cedric.
"When will they be transferring full shares to you?" Cedric asked his friend.
"Probably when Veronica marries and I am married. It's their only way of making me cooperate." Ram told his friend.
"And if you leave?" Cedric asked.
