Raymond looked into Veronica's eyes steadily.
"Are you upset because of your parents?" Raymond guessed.
When Raymond said that, a trace of panic flashed in Veronica's eyes.
"No. No."
Raymond narrowed his eyes. "The only person you can reach now is your mother. What did she say to you?"
Being forced into a corner by Raymond, Veronica looked at Raymond angrily.
Her words were filled with anger. "Raymond, can you stop asking? This is my privacy. I don't want to say it. Can't you leave me some privacy?"
Because Veronica was so mad, Raymond moved his lips weakly.
"Because I care about you. Seeing you so upset, I am worried."
Veronica was shocked at Raymond's words.
She was originally very mad, but Raymond's words dispelled all of her anger all of a sudden.
Veronica wiped the railing of the villa as she said, "It's nothing. I heard some news today. My mother told me that she was not my biological mother, and my father was not my biological father. I ... was just an orphan adopted from an orphanage to fool my father."
Raymond was stunned.
Veronica's calm account of the cruel truth made him feel sad.
No wonder she suddenly had a breakdown this afternoon and became so sad.
After Raymond grabbed Veronica's hand, he pulled the cloth in her hand and threw it aside.
"Okay, stop this. You haven't eaten dinner yet. You should eat something."
As soon as Raymond finished speaking, Veronica's stomach let out a rumbling sound. Yes, she was hungry. Instantly, Veronica flushed.
Veronica originally wanted to reject Raymond, but her stomach wanted food. If she rejected it now, it would be even more awkward.
Raymond smiled and pulled Veronica down the stairs. Veronica did not refuse.
Marie saw that Raymond had persuaded Veronica to come down the steps. She quickly brought a bowl of noodles for Veronica.
Marie cooked the noodles when Raymond went to find Veronica. Now the noodles were just ready.
There was a poached egg on top of the vegetables and noodles.
It was very fragrant and tasty.
At the dining table, Veronica sat down. Marie brought the bowl of noodles to Veronica and handed her a fork.
"Veronica, I just cooked the noodles for you. Hurry up and eat them. They will be less tasty later."
"Thank you, Marie."
Marie suddenly realized that Raymond was sitting next to Veronica. She asked, "Mr. Cordova, you haven't had dinner yet, right?"
"No!"
"There are some noodles left. I'll get you some."
When Marie brought the noodles to Raymond, they were much less than Veronica's noodles. Moreover, there were only noodles, no vegetables or eggs.
