Chapter 351 - Shopping Hater Veronica Lopez..

"Baby.. Why are you so tired? Do one thing, change up first and take a nice bath. You don't need to come down anymore as I'll bring your dinner in our bedroom." Veronica said with worry filled in her eyes, gulping down all of her pent up frustration for him.

For now, Reuben's health was more important to her from her so called anger on him...

Reuben knew that she was frustrated with his irresponsible behaviour today but she suppressed it after seeing his disheveled look.

This unconditional love of Veronica towards Reuben was the most appreciative quality of hers which made her different from any other girls...

She always kept Reuben on the top of her priority list regardless of time and situation which made Reuben fall in love with her more and more by each and every passing second of his blessed life!!!

Smiling at her lovingly and after pecking her on the cheek, he left for their bedroom whereas Veronica busied herself in warming the food for him...

Reuben and Veronica's bedroom…

After feeding Reuben by her own hand, Veronica asked, "Was there too much of preparation to be done honey that you're so much tired today? I have seen you arranging numerous of parties before but it's the first time I'm seeing you so worn out…

If there was so much of work then you should at least tell me baby. I'd have helped you in the preparations. Now have a look on yourself in the mirror. Your face says it all that how much you've stressed yourself for this.."

Veronica's worry was clearly visible on her beautiful face which made Reuben feel a little bad but he couldn't tell her the actual truth. Otherwise, all of his surprises would go under the water..

"Babe.. As you know that I have planned this party all of a sudden without a proper planning. That's why I had to look into the matter personally. And as per you said that I've arranged many parties before. It's true...

But you forgot that this party is not like others. It's the party to celebrate our union. So obviously, I've to give more interest and work hard to check if everything is perfect just like us.." Reuben said in a romantic tone, melting Veronica's heart once again.

Veronica smiled through her tears and kept staring at him with so much love that it was enough to waver Reuben's heart like a pendulum.

"You know what Bennie!! I feel so lucky sometimes that I got you as the love of my life. You're the most precious person of my life." Veronica whispered in a low voice as she placed her head on his chest and kissed it with so many emotions as if she was kissing his heart.

Reuben encircled his hand around her midriff and pulled her more towards him so that he could engulfed her in a hug properly.

Kissing her head, he muttered fondly, "You won't believe it honey that how much my life had turned out to be beautiful after your arrival. I too feel the luckiest to have you by my side, in my arms and always in my heart.."

Chuckling at Reuben's comment, Veronica tilted up her head to look at him and brushed her lips on his before mumbling softly, "I love you.."

"I love you more.." Reuben too whispered delicately and deepened their kiss, eagerly waiting for the next day to come so that he could tag his beloved Ica as his fiance..

Next day morning…

Finally the day had come of the much awaited party which would be renowned as the most unique party of the world with a lots of surprises and unexpected events...

Veronica woke up from her slumber but didn't find Reuben on the bed. She looked towards the washroom and then balcony but he was also not there.

Shrugging her shoulders, Veronica got up from the bed and went to freshen up a bit before starting her search mission for her dear boyfriend.

After brushing and finishing her morning courses, Veronica came out of the washroom only to find Reuben sitting on the couch with breakfast arranged on the table.

"Oh! So you were making breakfast for us? And here I thought that you had run away out of fear that I might irritate you to take me for shopping.." Veronica joked as she sat beside him while Reuben handed her a plate with food.

Chuckling at her, Reuben asked, "Why? Doesn't the shopping hater Veronica Lopez have any perfect dress to wear today evening?"

Veronica took a bite of the omlet and said, "No.. I have quite a few dresses but I don't know which one to wear for today's party. I mean I don't know if I have an appropriate dress for such a big event tonight."

Reuben chewed his food and after gulping it, said seriously, "On a serious note, you really don't have any perfect dress for the party? Why don't you check your wardrobe once more!"

Veronica furrowed her eyebrows together and looked at him confusedly, "You want me to check it now! Can't we wait till we finish our breakfast? I'm feeling really hungry."

Seeing her pouting, Reuben chuckled and said, "Fine.. Eat first then."

Happily nodding, they continued with their breakfast and finished it soon.

Sipping the water, Veronica finally walked inside her walk-in closet, being followed by Reuben. She scrunched up her face while opening the closet without knowing what's waiting for her in there.

She rummaged through her cupboards and her eyes finally fell on a box wrapped in a golden wrapper with a red rose placed on it.

Taking the box in her hand, Veronica turned around to see Reuben standing near the entrance with a sly smile on his face.

When he noticed Veronica staring at him quizzically he wiggled his brows playfully at her...

"What's in this box, Bennie? It's you who had kept it here, right?" Veronica asked taking slow steps towards him.

Reuben didn't say anything but just gestured her through his eyes to open the box, making Veronica more curious about the content inside it. Frowning a little, when she finally opened the box, a loud gasp left out of her mouth…
