Chapter 38 - Chapter XXXVIII

Two day had passed and Veronica was back from Country R. But before leaving, she promised her twins that she would constantly video call them so as to keep her twins in check as well. Her mother was surprised seeing her back and there she only told her about Fire's another hacking eccentricity which made the latter closed her eyes in hopelessness. Probably one of the helpless perk of having geniuses grandchildren.

Veronica also discovered that username bee_efef was her twins skype account. Supposed it's BFF for Bael Fire and Fair but said they made it extra creative by also putting an underscore after the bee as they don't want it to be read as 'beef'. Veronica could only grin out of her twins cuteness.

In fact, her one day stay turned to two days because of her twins antics. Realizing that Rawlf will still be back by tomorrow, Veronica smiled happily as she can finally have a 'me day'' after quite a time.

Veronica heaved a relax sigh after getting inside her suite. She then started to take off her louis vuitton black boots and settled it at the shoe rack just beside the door. Afterwards, she started removing her clothes starting from her off-white trench coat until she's only left with her underwear. She planned to take a relaxing warm bath at her tub. She was about to get inside the mini kitchen to pour herself a glass of sparkling champagne when her footsteps halted into a great pause and with widened eyes, stared at the man seating royally at the posh couch while enjoying a drink with himself. Veronica was feeling a sense of dè ja vu but masked her surprised face and clothed it with a pleasant one instead. Her beauty trap mode starts in 3, 2, 1...

'Hey, you're back?!' She walk towards the silent man who was already staring at her. Veronica intentionally swayed her hips to give more emphasis. She can feel the dangerous aura the man exudes but Veronica braved her wavering heart. After all, she's Lady Cleopatra of the underworld for many, many reason.

Receiving no response from the man, Veronica decided to go for an instant kill. She's tired and all and just wanted to rest and dealing with an angry man was not part of her supposed 'me time.'

Reaching Rawlf's point, Veronica with only her underwear on sit on the man's lap and move to rather straddle him on the couch.

'Hey.' She purred as she embrace him and rested her chin on his neck. Still no sign of response from the man although no sign of pushing her away from his body either. Veronica's mouth twitched but reminded herself she's not dealing with just anyone but the Rawlf Sy of Sy International.

Veronica moved her hands to caress his thick black hair with her fingers. She then looked at him straight in the eyes. The two looked into each others's eyes with great intensity and none of them has any plan to wave the flag of truce. Their staring game continued as Veronica's hand started to caress the man's wide and muscular back. 'So yummy.' She thought.

It was past nine in the evening already and the 12 hours travel time took a toil in her body so despite the heated gazes, Veronica can't help but yawn in exhaustion. She cupped the man's face gently. 'I'm really tired now.' She purred. And kissed him at tip of his nose. Afterwards, returned to rest her chin back at the crook of Rawlf's neck. Veronica took a deep breath inhaling the muscular and sexy scent of the man. This daddy really do smell so good.

'Hmm.' Rawlf replied and in as much as he wanted to punished her of her escapade back in Country R without even telling him for the least, he pitied her tired and sleepy state. The punishment was postponed for another day as Rawlf stand up carrying with him the woman in his embrace as he went inside the suite's bedroom.

Inside the bedroom, Rawlf gently laid Veronica on the bed and he went directly on the bathroom. The woman closed her eyes to sleep thinking she won't be able to clean herself as she's really sleepy and tired now. After a while, Rawlf, the magnanimous Rawlf Sy, carried a damp towel from the bathroom and started to wiped the woman's body.

'Your body is exhausted. Just wash up tomorrow when you wake up.' The man said gently while with utmost care, wiped the woman's body. Veronica purred another reply as the man's gentle touches carried her to dreamland and dozed off instantly.

Rawlf raised a brow seeing as he was left to deal with the sleeping woman. He made his move fast and precise yet gentle so as not to wake her up. He was finally finished wiping her and decided to remove and change her underwear as to give her maximum comfort.

'What a troublesome kitten.' Rawlf smirked as he moved to correct her sleeping position. She was finally fully dressed although he must admit that earlier, finding what underwear and nighties to put on her made him indecisive. He has to admit that her collection of underwear and nighties were all sexy and cute that it took him hard time to decide.

He covered her and pulled her gently near him. The woman who was unconscious with the earlier struggle of the man beside her moved closer to snuggle beside him and even put her hands over his waist to embrace him. This gesture from Veronica earned a small smile from Rawlf as he encircled his arm around the woman's waist as well.

Who would have thought the night would end rather very peaceful and harmonious between the couple.

Meanwhile, Secretary Ryan was sweating profusely expecting another cold and angry call from the President. He was inside the car already waiting at the hotel park if ever the President would just angrily storm off from the building as the couple would surely fight. It was then three hours ago when the lady boss arrived and yet no sign of the President coming out of the hotel was felt by the Secretary. He decided to wait a little more as it's already midnight just to be sure. Without his knowledge, the couple whom he thought to fight and smash things were already enjoying the pure bliss of rest in each other's embrace.
