Veronica followed the Madam to their assigned table. Surprisingly, there were unfamiliar women who were also seated there.
These women were not there yet when excuse herself earlier for a break. Her line of sight caught the back of a woman sitting on their table.
Veronica could tell that the woman was a young woman.
When one of the ladies on their table saw them, Veronica saw her open her mouth and she could her lips saying,
"They're here." Everyone else on the table turned their way. Veronica maintained her unreadable yet polite expression.
When they reached their table, the women stood up to show their respect towards the Sy Madam. Vanessa nodded her head in acknowledgement and said in a rather soft voice.
"No need for that. Let's all sit", She then turned her eyes towards the younger woman on the table, the same woman whom Veronica assumed to be much younger compared to the madams there.
The woman seeing the sight of the Sy Madame smiled pleasantly yet still with reservation. "I'm glad to see you here, Aunt Vanessa."
The woman then turned her head towards Veronica, her smile is harmless…, or so it seems.
"It is Katarina. It's a surprise to see you here. Hope your parents are doing fine." The Sy Madam said in platitudes. But this is the extent of the Sy Madam being polite to other people. Even if this lady is no other than the daughter of Country P's President Cang, Katarina Cang. And also used to be the same woman who she hoped to be her future daughter in law, prior to her knowing about Veronica and her lovely grandchildren.
In fact, no matter how she thought that Katarina Cang was suitable for her son, Vanessa has no regrets. Veronica is very beautiful, intelligent and portrays virtues she's fond of and much more, given to her two extremely adorable grandchildren! Not to include that her stoic, fierce son loves her to the extent still unknown to the Sy Madame.
She realized that no one is as suitable for her son than Veronica. These happy thoughts are masked carefully on the Sy Madame's frosty expression.
"They're doing just fine auntie. But also, I couldn't deny of papa's business." The woman smiled then added with a hint of sweetness, "also, papa send his regards you and Rawlf, auntie."
Vanessa nodded then turned to Veronica.
"I would like to introduce you to Veronica. She's Rawlf's fiancée. Veronica Hija, this is Miss Cang, President Cang's daughter and this is lady Mu and lady Song. Both are the wives of retired military generals."
Veronica uttered her, "Please to meet you", towards those ladies being introduced to her. She observed Katarina Cang's expression and she saw no changes.
This seemed to be a harmless woman is what made Veronica carefully observe her more. With the way she called Rawl's name in familiarity and sweetness, Veronica is not stupid to realized that the woman has hidden passion reserve for her man.
Considering that she's also a daughter of Country P's most prominent figure, Veronica wouldn't take this Katarina as a simple woman.
