A Sweet Night The CEO Loves His Wife Ardently

Chapter 710 Here Comes Veronica (73)



Shirley's words were like a bomb exploding in Veronica's mind, causing her mind to go blank.

And they confirmed what Stella had said before.

Shirley said that she already had an engagement with a man, and that engagement was set three years ago.

That meant Shirley and Raymond were engaged, but Raymond never told Veronica anything about that.

Stella sat beside Veronica.

She was stunned after hearing what Shirley said. Then, she looked worried at the pale-faced Veronica and asked, "Veronica, are you alright?"Property © NôvelDrama.Org.

Veronica smiled faintly, "I'm fine."

Stella was still worried.

She had known Veronica for many years and she knew her well. Although Veronica said that she was fine, Stella knew that she was just pretending.

Veronica had liked Raymond before, but she always felt that there was a gap between their status and didn't dare to start a relationship with him. It wasn't easy for her to gather the courage to be with Raymond but, in the end, she was told that Raymond already had a fiancée. No one could stand that kind of thing.

Neither of them knew how they made it to the end of the class.

Later on, Veronica acted normal, but the more she tried to look normal, the more abnormal she was.

In the afternoon, Veronica took some time off and returned to the villa.

Stella thought right.

Veronica wasn't truly fine as she claimed to be.

She was rather disappointed than angry.

All this time, she felt that she knew Raymond. She didn't expect that he had been lying to her. Raymond was engaged to Shirley, but he still accepted to be her boyfriend.

Veronica wanted to call Raymond and ask for an explanation, but she didn't dare to do so.

She was afraid that she would get a definite answer.

She might not believe it even if Raymond told her that there was no engagement between him and Shirley.

After all, there was so much evidence proving their engagement to be true.

Veronica just couldn't be more disappointed that Raymond had lied to her.

Raymond was the pedestalled president of the Cordova Group. If he wanted to play with Veronica's emotions, she wouldn't be his match. Therefore, Veronica decided not to confront Raymond so that she could avoid his humiliation.

However, it was also impossible for her to stay around Raymond and let him enjoy being accompanied by two women at the same time. She wouldn't continue to be the home wrecker of him and Shirley.

If Veronica wasn't Raymond's girlfriend, she could have stayed in the villa as a competent maid. However, her relationship with Raymond had changed. It would only make it awkward for them if she stayed, so it was better for her to move away.

Veronica had already decided in her heart that Raymond had cheated on her feelings. She believed that Marie and the others in the villa were helping Raymond do that, so she didn't tell Marie that she wanted to move out.

She pretended that the school was organizing a camping trip, so she went back to the villa to pack her things. Marie even warned her with concern to be careful at night.

Veronica didn't have many things there. There were only a few sets of clothes, and most of them were books, Shirley's books.

She put her belongings in a backpack.

Veronica looked at the books. She wanted to leave them in the villa, but after some thought, she still put them in her bag. After packing her things, Veronica looked back at the room she had stayed in for two months, lingeringly.

Finally, she made up her mind and left the room, walking out of the villa.

Veronica suppressed all her emotions, so Marie and the others didn't notice that Veronica looked weird. They didn't stop her.

When Raymond returned to the villa, Marie told him that Veronica was going camping at night. He immediately called Veronica.

When Veronica got the call, she was packing up in the apartment she had just rented.

Veronica's heart skipped a beat when she saw Raymond's name flickering on the screen. She thought that she was fine, but she could not help but feel bad when Raymond called her.

But she was resolute and didn't pick up the call.

After a while, Raymond called again, and Veronica still didn't pick up.

After three consecutive calls, Veronica's phone stopped ringing. She guessed that Raymond was getting impatient, so he wouldn't call again.

The room was quiet again. Veronica sighed.

Ever since she found out about the engagement between Raymond and Shirley, she had felt depressed. She never cried because she wasn't in despair yet. Although she was in pain, it wasn't to the point of despair.

She and Raymond decided on the first day of their relationship that they wouldn't disclose it. Fortunately, the two of them only dated for one day. There was no strong attachment on either side yet. Perhaps Raymond would clap his hands in joy when he found out she had left because seldom home wreckers would just leave without pestering.

...

The next day, Raymond called Veronica again. However, Veronica missed the call because she was in the bathroom. Later, she received a text from Raymond, saying that he was going on a business trip for two days, and asked her to wait for him to come back.

Veronica originally wanted to call Raymond to clarify the relationship between them. But she changed her mind when she saw the message. She was going to wait until Raymond came back.

Two days later, before Raymond returned, Veronica heard about another piece of news.

It turned out that the Thomson family and the Bernard family prepared to connect through marriage. The media was all over the engagement of Zoey and Justin, saying that they would get married after they graduated from university.

Veronica was stunned when she heard the news.

She didn't expect that the two were getting married.

When Veronica saw the news, it happened to be the time to get off school. She ran into Justin after she read the news.

Justin was embarrassed when he saw Veronica.

"Hello, Veronica," he said.

This was the first time Justin didn't give Veronica anything when they met.

"I heard that you are going to get married. Congratulations!" Veronica said sincerely.

Justin's expression turned stiff when he heard that.

He was a little awkward as he looked at Veronica. "Veronica, are you available? I'd like to invite you to dinner."
