Mike's head immediately shot up towards Veronica and he stared at Veronica with a horrified expression as he asked in a whisper, "Who are you? Tell me exactly what is your real identity?
How do you know about all of these when no one was supposed to know except me and few others. That means you are not the Veronica Lopez you seems to be."
Veronica smirked at him and replied, "Oh no, Mike!! I'm the same Veronica Lopez who is the heiress of Lopez family, the same who got engaged to Reuben Smith last night. But the only difference is...
My every action differs on the behaviour of the person who is standing in front of me. However, there is a bigger secret which neither you nor your boss Mr. Brown know."
"What do you mean? What things we don't know about you?" Mr. Brown asked with his furrowed eyebrows.
Veronica smiled at him devilishly and said, "Do you remember the girl from five years ago who was your son Alex's friend?
The one whom you thought of being a middle class girl. And also the one for whom you decided to play with the lives of your both sons?"
By every passing sentences, Veronica's pitch was going higher and higher.
Mr. Brown and Mike who was oblivious about what Veronica was saying and was trying very hard to find out exactly in which direction this this conversation going to end.
But when they heard about the girl from five years ago, their facial expression immediately changed into a solemn one.
They couldn't understand how Veronica had come to know about this!
After all, they had tried their best to hide this secret from the world very hard!
"What do you mean by playing with our two son's lives? What did he do?" Mrs. Brown who had never pronounced even a single word from the time she had come had finally opened her mouth.
She was sitting beside her husband for the whole time timidly. But never had tried to interrupt any of them.
Even when the truth about Regina came out, though she was very much shocked and angry but still chose to sit there quietly and kept on watching the whole show.
But now that it had cone to talk about her own sons' lives, her heart started to thump loudly in a bad way, as if it was indicating that something terrible was going to happen today.
Veronica looked at her and said, "Yes.. Your husband not only ruined your sons' lives but also killed one of them brutally."
This revelation was completely unexpected to the couple and Mike!!
Mrs. Brown couldn't believe what she was hearing but then she thought that she had misheard something.
Whereas both Mr. Brown and Mike were completely stupefied by Veronica's revelation.
" What do you mean by killing one of my sons? I only have one son and that is Alonzo. So there is no way of me killing anyone." Mr. Brown said while beads of sweat started to form on his forehead.
"You still have the guts to deny? Woah..! You're more stubborn that I thought. Fine.!! If you're both eager to know about how was I able to know it, then let me tell you about the secret." Veronica said with a mischievous smile on her face.
Looking at Reuben, she asked for an approval for their next step. When he nodded his head, Veronica smiled at him with content.
This was the connection between the couple which had made their bond of love more stronger and steadier..
"Well, the truth is…the person whom you thought of having a low family status had a name also. Do any of you remember it?" Veronica asked.
Mr. Brown who made the whole plan to break the beautiful friendship between Alex and Veronica, had no idea about her name or face as he only saw her for once in the picture and always chose to call her as 'that girl'...
But Mike who had a crush on her always, had kept her name in his mind clearly but couldn't recognise her face as she had changed completely in these few years.
Her body had been developed in a more beautiful way with her womanly curves and luscious figure...
Mike pondered over a while and said with a frown, "Her name was Vero... Veronica.."
"Yes.. Her name was Veronica. Now tell me, what is my name?" Veronica asked with a smirk playing on her lips.
Mr. Brown was feeling really irritated with Veronica going round and round on the topic which he tried to express to her, "Why are you....."
But before he could complete, he was cut off by Mike as he whispered exasperatedly, "Your name is Veronica Lopez. That means both of you and the girl five years ago...."
Veronica chuckled at his scared expression and said, "Yes.. I'm the same Veronica whom you guys tried to play with. But Alas!! I'm not a girl to get easily trapped and let you leave without any punishment for your crap.."
It was enough for Mr. Brown to get the biggest shock of his life and he started sweating profusely as if he was bathing in water.
He asked while stuttering, "But how…how can this be possible? You…you are the heiress of the famous Lopez family but she was just a middle class girl.."
"Though we don't need to clarify anything to you but still we'll give you a good explanation so that you could regret for your whole life about your wrongdoings. But before that, we need someone here first." Reuben said in a stern voice.
Veronica was utterly confused with what Reuben had just said as it was not their primary plan to call someone here...
So she asked, "Whose presence you want here, Bennie?"
Reuben just smiled at her and replied, "Someone you know and who has a big connection with all of it…though not directly but indirectly."
Reuben then looked towards the door and called out for the person, "Please come inside, Lisa.."
