Chapter 112 - So corny.

"Hey, you can't blame? Who knows it's poisoned? Why, would you like it if I'm a glutton instead and eat everything offered by strangers?" Veronica reasoned seeing the changed in his expression, but deep inside, she's smirking. But after another realizations, she suddenly stomped on the man's foot.

Rawlf suddenly stopped and looked at his woman, confused. "What is it?"

"Yyyyyyou! Was that wasted moment in Diamante hotel also planned put?!"

Rawlf turned sheepish. Not because he was discovered but because that was the lowest tactic he had ever done in his whole life.

"Well..."

"Ugh! That is so corny!" Veronica laugh so hard she could only slap the man in the chest. "Oh my days Rawlf! What we're you doing! Ha! Ha! Ha!"

Veronica's whole face and neck flushed red from laughing so hard even the violinist stopped playing.

Since the romantic mood was now replaced by this awkward truth reveal, Rawlf silently signaled for the violinist that his service is no longer required. It would be Secretary Ryan who was waiting on the ground floor to settle the account with the violinist.

Veronica was laughing so hard, and despite the slight embarrassment he felt, Rawlf rubbed her back just in case she will lost breath from it.

"I know. I know. But it worked isn't it? We even did another thing." Rawlf hits back teasing her just so she would stop from laughing. He was worried since she's very red now.

"Ugh. Ha, ha, but maybe because we're physically compatible with each other. But ha, ha, ugh, you, you, ha, ha."

Rawlf sigh in exasperation as he kept on rubbing Veronica's back.

Basically the supposed to emotional and romantic night end up Rawlf trying to pacify Veronica from laughing so hard. His face dimmed much because he was the reason of her laughter, and for once, it's not something that he could be proud of. She even dared to teased him of telling this to their children when they slightly grow up.

Rawlf could only massaged his nose bridge.

"I commend you for knowing my ring finger's sized. It fits perfectly." Veronica has stopped laughing and she was now on the bed, spreading her righ hand, the ring suits her finger.

Rawlf's mood improved after seeing how she like the engagement ring he gave her. He pulled her hands gently and kissed it. "I'm glad it's to your liking."

"Yeah. This fit my taste. Simple, lightweight, and I could wear it everyday."

Rawlf smiled. He moved to pull her over in his embrace. "I'm also very glad that accepted my proposal. I assure you, I will care, protect and love you. You and our cubs."

Veronica nuzzled in his chest and hugged him back on the waist. "And I you."

Soon, the room turned silent. What could only be heard is the even breath of the sleeping woman. The man on the other hand opened his eyes and feast his eyes with the beautiful sleeping view of the woman he love dearly in his embrace. His woman. The mother of his children and soon to be, his wife.

The situation between them is different from the normal couple who would often go through stages. But Rawlf wouldn't asked for it to change. He move his body closer to him and as if had got enough, kissed her on the forehead and closed his eyes to sleep.His lips, curved.

The next morning, a news quickly spread not only on City I but on the whole Country P. It is because it is the very headliners of every newspaper and has also became the 'newsflash' of every local t.v stations in Country P. And much because it concerns the Business King of the country. The tv and paper media weren't afraid to air or published this information because the news itself came from Sy International.

It is not only the elites of City I but so as well as the elites of other cities and region that were talking about this hot from the pot information. Some are happy, some are envious, some wanted to know who's the lucky bride and some just shrugged off stating "probably it's just another arranged marriage between powerful families".

On the other side, at Tan Mansion, the house maids were already outside Julie Tan's room because of the sound of broken vases. Julie Tan, after years of hiding has lost it. Julie Tan finally snapped.

"What's going on?" Elvira Wei asked the maids who looked frantic outside her only daughter's room.

"Madame, we heard noises from the young miss's room. It seems like broken glasses. We knocked already but the young miss seemed to have never heard it." The maid reported worriedly. After all, for the past years, aside from the Tan family being good to them, the young miss of the Tan had been kind to them as well.

'She must have known it already.' Elvira Wei thought. Her face turned solemn. "It's okey. I'll take it from here. Go on with your work."

"Yes madame." After making sure that the three maids already left, Elvira Wei knocked on her daughter's door.

"Julie, sweetie, it's me. Open the door."

After a while, Julie Tan's room door opened and came out the frustrated and teary face Julie Tan. "Oh sweetie!" Elvira Tan exclaimed and ushered her back in the room, afraid that the maids would see her in this situation.

Seeing the mess in her daughter's room, Elvira could only sigh. There were broken vases and even picture frames on floor. Elvira Wei had to slowly walked since she might stepped over the broken glasses debris.

After making her daughter sit back on the bed, she looked at her carefully. "You knew it already?"

"Mama. How could this ever happened?! Rawlf is mine! Mine and mine alone! How could he get engaged with other woman?! And to that woman of all people?!" Julie Tan spoke in calmly. Even Elvira Wei was shocked to see this calmness on her daughter.

Of course, she is her mother. She knows her daughter just like the back of her hand. And she know that her daughter, who is viewed as an outstanding lady in City I is in love to Rawlf Sy. As to what extent, unfortunately, it would be too late for Elvira Wei to know.
