A Sweet Night The CEO Loves His Wife Ardently

"By the way, how did you get here?" Winy asked again.

"I took a taxi here!" Veronica braced herself and replied.

"Where are the clients? Have they left?"

"Yes!" she continued to lie.

Winy was so happy that the corners of her mouth curled up. "That's great! It's not convenient to take a taxi here. How about we send you home?"

This time, Veronica was flattered again. She waved her hand to refuse. "Mrs. Comte, thank you. But I can go back on my own. I don't want to cause you any trouble."

Winy said decisively, "I'm willing to send you home! That's that. I'll send you home. Mr. Cordova shouldn't mind, right?"

Veronica looked at Raymond, hoping that he would say something.

He wouldn't let others send her home, right?

"We've finished our work. Of course, I won't interfere with the employee's private life!" Raymond said.

Veronica widened her eyes.

What did Raymond mean by this? Was he going to let her go with Winy?

However, she left with Winy. Where was she going? It was unlikely that she would let Winy put her in some place and then take a taxi.

Veronica glared at Raymond and gritted her teeth as if she was biting his bones.

Raymond smiled. He ignored Veronica's disgusted gaze and continued, "However, the client just said something at the dinner table. It needs to be handled quickly. Ms. Luke needs to explain it to me personally so I can't let her go for now."

Couldn't he have said it earlier? It made her nervous for a long time.

She followed Raymond's words and continued to lie, "Mrs. Comte, it seems that I can't take your car."

However, there was a look of disappointment on Winy's face.

"Well, since you still have something to do, I should leave you to your work."

Veronica heaved a sigh of relief. She smiled politely and said, "Then Mrs. Comte, I'll be leaving first. See you!"

"Wait a moment!" Winy suddenly grabbed Veronica's hand again.

"Mrs. Comte, is there anything else?"

Winy pulled Veronica to Jackson again. "Veronica. Jackson is also here. Give me an answer now. You said before that you would consider being my goddaughter. Have you thought about it?" Everyone present was stunned.

Before Veronica could answer, Jackson had already said coldly, "I don't agree!"

Veronica had never thought of being Jackson and Winy's goddaughter. However, Jackson's straightforward answer surprised her.

It seemed that Jackson hated her.

Winy did not expect Jackson to suddenly say this. After three seconds, she turned back angrily. "Jackson, why don't you agree to it?"

"Although I don't know what method this girl used to make you want to recognize her as your goddaughter, I will not agree."

"It's not what she wants to be my goddaughter. It's me who brings this up!"

Jackson looked at Veronica mockingly. "Isn't the result the same? If she didn't do something, would you want to recognize her as your goddaughter?"

Winy was irritated by Jackson's words.

"I already said that it's my idea. How can you blame Veronica?" Winy held Veronica's hand and said firmly, "Veronica, don't worry. I've decided to regard you as my goddaughter. Regardless of whether Jackson agrees or not, I won't change my mind. This is my business and has nothing to do with him!"

Jackson angrily called out Winy's name, "Winy! You can't decide without my permission!"

Winy refused to compromise and said, "As I said, it's none of your business. It has nothing to do with you."

Seeing that Winy and Jackson were going to quarrel because of her, and things may get worse, Veronica felt guilty and quickly pulled Winy. "Mrs. Comte, don't be angry. You shouldn't argue with Mr. Comte for an outsider like me!"

Jackson turned around and snorted.

Winy was so angry that her face turned pale, and her eyes turned red. She still held Veronica's hand tightly. "Veronica, don't worry. No matter what, I will recognize you as my goddaughter. I will not give in." Veronica could not help but rub her forehead.

"Mrs. Comte, I am grateful that you are so good to me, but..." Veronica whispered cruelly, "I've considered it. I don't intend to be your goddaughter."

Winy looked up in shock and said in a panic, "Veronica, you refuse me because of Jackson?"

Veronica smiled and explained, "Mrs. Comte, this has nothing to do with anyone. I was an orphan when I was young. The Comte family is a family of high social rank. If I were your goddaughter, the media would expose my identity and make a huge fuss about it. I am just an ordinary person, and I only want to live a normal life. Please understand, Mrs. Comte."

"But..."

"Mrs. Comte, I know that you are good to me. You are grateful that I saved you. But I didn't save you because I was up to something. Sorry, Mrs. Comte," Veronica said sincerely.

Veronica's words caused Winy's eyes to turn red again.

"But I really want to recognize you as my goddaughter!"

"Mrs. Comte, we are pretty good now. If you want to go shopping or dine with me in the future, I will welcome you anytime!" Veronica said with a smile.

When Winy heard this, her expression eased a little. However, the gaze she looked at Jackson with was still full of resentment.

She held Veronica's hand. "Alright, since you've decided on it, I won't force you. However, we've already agreed that when I need your accompanying in the future, you can't refuse."

Veronica smiled and nodded.

"Of course."

After Winy finished speaking with Veronica, she reluctantly separated from Veronica under the signal of Jackson's gaze.

During this period, Justin had been standing to the side and looking at Veronica.

Because he was too entranced, he only retracted his gaze when Winy was about to leave. Then, he felt two sharp gazes staring at him from the side. He suddenly realized that Raymond was right beside him. He clearly knew that Veronica was actually Raymond's girlfriend. However, he had been staring at his girlfriend in front of Raymond just now. No wonder Raymond's expression was so ugly.

After Winy left, Justin quickly followed Winy as if he was dodging someone.

Not far from the hotel, after Winy and Jackson separated from Justin, Justin was just about to get in the car when someone suddenly blocked Justin's way like a fiend.Content © NôvelDrama.Org 2024.
