Veronica CEO's Underworld Queen novel Chapter 157

　　Supposedly, the wedding between Rawlf and Veronica was to be held by the end of the year for a grand preparation.

　　With the old madam Sy, Vanessa Sy and the aristocratic blooded Celerina Wang, simplicity is not included in their vocabulary.

　　However, with the news that Veronica was more than four weeks pregnant, and with the couple who decided to hold the wedding on a much earlier date, the two old madam were both joyfully excited yet slightly disappointed.

　　Joyfully excited because a new addition and source of joy will be added to their family yet slightly disappointed because they could no longer achieve the wedding of the century plan that they wanted for both their children.

　　It's not only the old madam of course that are happy and excited about the news of Veronica's pregnancy! The two old masters and closest members to the SyWang and Wang family are as well!

　　With conversation in between, and to consider that the following months would no longer be convenient for Veronica and since Rawlf does not want it that Veronica has to birth first before the wedding, they all agree to set it right on the first week of the next month of August.

　　Therefore, the Rawlf and Veronica wedding will happen soon as expected.

　　The wedding however was set privately. Only the immediate family members and closest friends were invited to the wedding venue. And to make up for the other family members and family friends, they were all invited to the reception.

　　Virginia's bridesmaid was Rose and Rawf's best man was Ric. The flower girl of course is Baelfair who happily enjoyed her part in her parents wedding with Baelfire, as the ring bearer.

　　With both Rawlf and Veronica's personality, the wedding atmosphere was solemn, intimate and private.

　　The wedding itself was held at the top floor of Sy International and the reception, at the spacious lobby of the skyscraper!

　　Heaving a sigh of relief, Veronica looked around. She was, of course, happy inside.

　　"Everything alright? Is there any discomfort you feel?" Rawlf asked as his expression was cloth with worry, his left palm on her lower back, gently massaging her while his right palm on her abdomen, softly rubbing her.

　　'Really, this man.'

　　"I'm fine. I'm honestly just relieved that the wedding is done and now I no longer have to worry about anything else, well, I mean, I now only need to focus on my pregnancy."

　　"We both will. Although this is not the wedding that I want to give you but I have to be honest that our private wedding is also…. ,well." Rawlf pause to find a good word while he was still trying to gently massage her back and abdomen.

　　They were already seated and the guests happily mingled with one another. After all, this is the final phase of the wedding reception, the guests eating and drinking to their heart's content while wishing the newlyweds with good and auspicious words.

　　"I feel the same", Veronica cut him off, smiling.

　　"In fact, I prefer this."

　　Rawlf softly pressed his lips at the top of her head.

　　"I'll give you a grander wedding next,-"

　　"No. Not anymore. I love the fact that I'm wedded to you but please, no more weddings. Besides, instead of focusing our energy for that grand wedding, it's better that we provide it to this bean", Veronica pointed on her still flat stomach,

　　"which next year will also be added to our family." She concluded.

　　"Your wish is my command but what have you been looking-" Rawlf paused as he followed Veronica's line of sight and saw the man that was talking with Rose.

　　Seeing his reaction, Veronica asked,

　　"You know him?"

　　"Yeah…."

　　"Who is he?"

　　"An acquaintance."

　　"Is he a good man?"

　　Rawlf didn't answer. He looks Veronica in the eyes before replying,

　　"What do you think?"

　　"As long as he does not hurt my friend."

　　Veronica said it in a dangerous tone.

　　Rawlf: "...."

　　"Oh, the twins! Where?"

　　"Due to the matters earlier this afternoon, our cubs were probably exhausted and had retired an hour earlier. Vlad informed me. Nothing to worry about."

　　"That's good to know."

　　Rawlf nodded as he continued gently rubbing Veronica on her stomach and back without any sign of impatience.

　　"If you know him, why don't we approach them so you could introduce him to me?" Veronica's voice was filled with curiosity.

　　"It looks like you are interested in that man? Remember, we just got married." Rawlf then chuckled.

　　"Well Mr. Sy, I am much more interested in my friend's welfare, especially that it involves my Rose."

　　"My Rose." This time, the jealousy in Rawlf's tone is real.

　　'Really, this man!' Veronica thought, exasperated.

　　"Oh come on, love."

　　Seeing the exasperation on her face and with the doctor's advice about Veronica's pregnancy, Rawlf decided not to dwell with it anymore and instead replied,

　　"The man was a college classmate back in H university, quite an outstanding man. He helped us in locating and cornering Pyotr in Country J, which is his home country. However, I didn't expect that he would be coming here…." Rawlf pause,

　　"He's not even invited."

　　"Then how-", Veronica once again paused and with glee in tone continued,

　　"Oh my bad ads Rose left him alone. Well, that's my Rose for you. Oh wait, he's coming to us!"

　　Rawlf could only helplessly shake his head.

　　"Congratulations on your wedding Mr. and Mrs. Sy,Since this old friend of yours was obviously forgotten, I invited myself in." The man greeted them.
