Chapter 245 - Big Head Woman...

Alonzo's Apartment...

Alonzo came back from his office late at night being tired as today's events were not that much fateful for him.

Though he got to sign a brilliant contract with a famous company of city S but the meeting with Reuben didn't go well.

According to his plans, his first step towards Veronica was through making Reuben jealous.

He wanted to provoke Reuben by saying those nasty words but his plan completely backfired cause he never thought that Reuben would be so much matured to handle such a serious matter so cool mindedly...

Although Alonzo preferred Reuben as his strong love rival, but he must have to agree with the fact that Reuben was really a great businessman.

If it was to be another person who had to face such a difficult situation like the hotel entrance problem in the middle of half completed project, then he would never find a solution so fast.

Whereas Reuben just took few minutes to think over the whole situation and immediately gave a brilliant idea which no one could ever expected. Even Alonzo himself could not think of anything so fine like this.

Indeed Reuben was named as 'King of Business World'…

"Brother, you are already back?" Myra asked coming out of her room.

Alonzo turned to his sister and said, "Yeah. But why haven't you slept yet? It's already very late."

Myra came towards him and said, "Uhm.. I'm not feel like sleeping. Moreover, this is still early for me to go to bed. Why don't you freshen up and I serve you the food..."

Nodding his head, Alonzo went to his room for a nice bath while Myra became busy with heating up the food for Alonzo.

Alonzo had already informed her before that he would be late so Myra should have her dinner and she obliged to it as she knew late night dinner was not good for her health as she has problem of severe gastritis..

"How is your planning going over your new restaurant.?" Alonzo asked as he took a bite of his dinner.

Myra fell silent but still said, "Actually, brother. After that day in Fusion I never talked to Lucy or Vero...

I couldn't find the courage to have a conversation with them. What if they now started to think that I'm not qualified to be their friend.."

Alonzo sighed and kept the spoon on his plate before saying, "I know Myra that it's my fault that I told a lie to them. But trust me...

After knowing them even for a little bit, I'm sure they would not blame you for anything which was caused by me.They will never stop befriending you for my own faults.

So just buck up and call them first in the morning tomorrow. Clear all the misunderstandings if you have any among yourselves."

Myra finally found some confidence in her as she nodded before saying, "Thanks brother. I'll then call tomorrow and talk to them."

Wilson Mansion...

Both Mr. and Mrs. Wilson were sitting in their living room along with Lucinda as she kept looking at them with a scrutinizing gaze as if she was trying to find any clue about their sudden change of behaviour from the past few days..

"Can you please tell me what's going on in both of your heads?" Lucinda asked, wiggling her eyebrows.

Mrs. Wilson looked at her daughter and said, "Nothing Lucy. It's just we're planning on some dinner party at our home."

"Dinner party? What kind of dinner party?" Lucinda questioned being totally confused.

"Ah!! It's nothing big... Just to celebrate our daughter having a boyfriend now. So princess, take a day off on this upcoming Friday as few guests will come over our place." Mr. Wilson informed.

Lucinda furrowed her eyebrows and asked, "Which guests are coming? Do I know them?"

"Yeah... You know them very well so don't have to panic. Just get ready as simple as possible." Mrs. Wilson said.

"Okay.." Lucinda said shrugging and went upstairs to her room.

Inside Lucinda's room...

"What happened? Why are you sounding so low?" Henry asked over the phone.

"No...not low. But thinking over the past few days...my parents have totally changed as if they seemed to be making a conspiracy against me which I'm not able to understand clearly." Lucinda replied, lying on her stomach on the bed.

Henry knitted his eyebrows and said, "Don't think over too much about it. Maybe they're not hiding anything and you are overthinking too much."

"Yeah... Maybe." Lucinda replied.

"We haven't spent a night together for so many days Lucy. I miss you." Henry pouted though Lucinda can't see him.

"Aww!! I miss you too. How about I spend tomorrow night with my dear boyfriend?" Lucinda said with a mischievous glint in her eyes.

Henry laughed and said, "That would be the best then. I'll be waiting."

Alonzo's bedroom..

"Hello?" Alonzo picked up his phone which was ringing for few minutes as he was busy in studying some contract ideas.

"Hey Alonzo. Thank God you hadn't slept yet." Cole said.

Alonzo smiled and said, "You know that I'm not a fast sleeper.."

"Hmmm... I know about that. That's why I called you so late at night." Cole said.

Alonzo nodded his head and said, "So what's the matter? Why you called me now when you should have been busy in some club?"

Cole chuckled and said, "Though I badly want to go clubbing but couldn't get any free time for it as I have been very busy for the past few days. However I've called you today to inform you about something."

Scrunching up his eyebrows together, Alonzo asked, "What is it?"

"I already told you that I'm coming to City S soon. And finally, the date is the day after tomorrow." Cole informed his best friend.

Though Alonzo felt extremely happy to meet his best friend after months but his face hardened when he remembered about his always touchy sister who was nothing but a big head woman which he didn't like at all…
