A Sweet Night: The CEO Loves His Wife Ardently novel Chapter 690

When she heard Shirley's voice, Veronica froze.

Judging from Shirley's tone, it seemed like she knew Raymond.

Raymond knew Shirley.

As Veronica was guessing, she heard Raymond's reply.

"It's you. When did you come back?" His voice was slightly cold.

"This afternoon. Two friends of mine and I are having a meal in another private room. I heard that you are also in this restaurant, and we haven't seen each other for a long time. So, I came over to greet you."

"I see."

Shirley probed, "Are you eating here alone?"

"No, with a friend."

Shirley smiled and said, "I have to return to my private room now. I'm afraid I won't have the time to see your friend. I haven't seen your parents for a long time. If I have time, I will visit them at the Cordova Mansion."

"My parents went abroad to travel. You won't be able to see them for the time being."

Shirley sighed, "That's a pity."

"How long do you plan to stay in Peace City this time?"

Shirley stared at Raymond and then said meaningfully, "I won't leave. I plan to live and work in Peace City."

"You want to stay here? But you are a diplomat. It would be better to stay in the capital."

Shirley smiled and said, "Peace City is my hometown after all. Also, my family, my friends, and the ones I care about are in Peace City. I do not plan to leave when I come back this time."

Raymond smiled and said, "If Lincoln knew that you would not leave again, he would be very happy."

Shirley's expression changed slightly when Raymond mentioned Lincoln, as if she did not want to mention him.

"I should go back now. We should go out for a meal to have a good chat."

"Alright."

Shirley smiled at Raymond and turned to leave.

At this time, Veronica, who was standing outside the door, saw Shirley looking at Raymond. Naturally, she saw the deep affection in Shirley's eyes toward Raymond.

As a woman, Veronica had a keen intuition.

Thus, Veronica was able to sense it immediately.

Shirley was fond of Raymond.

Seeing that Shirley was about to come out of the private room, Veronica, who was hiding outside the private room, was shocked. She was afraid that Shirley would discover her. Veronica anxiously turned around and left. Before Shirley walked to the door, Veronica quickly hid in the corner. After Shirley left, she walked out of the corner.

When Shirley disappeared from her sight, Veronica returned to the door of the private room.

For some reason, when Veronica looked at the door of the private room in front of her, she was a little serious and sad. But she could not tell why she was feeling sad.

At this moment, Raymond's voice came from the private room. "How long do you plan to stay outside?"

Hearing Raymond's voice, Veronica was startled and pushed open the door, entering the private room.

Veronica frowned at Raymond. "How did you know I was outside?"
