Veronica CEO's Underworld Queen novel Chapter 24

　　"Don't do it again." Veronica continued. She looked at him with a serious expression not realizing how seductive she was being.

　　"Can't be helped, you're my woman now."

　　Veronica laughed loudly, hiding her real troubled expression. "Oh you were so serious about that?!"

　　Rawlf could read how she tried to hide something underneath her laughter but decided to not dwell on it as he will discover it eventually. "You were not as daring five years ago."

　　Veronica ceased from laughing. "Turned off?" She returned back to teasing. So he remembered me He remembered me.Veronica didn't know what to feel but she must admit that part of her

　　knew it earlier but denied because she doesn't want to be disappointed if it's the contrary.

　　"No,.... rather, turned on right now. Very turned on." Rawlf said, placing his wineglass at the

　　coffee table and turned to face her. He extended his hand to touch her cheeks seeing her flushed red after hearing what he said.

　　She hesitated for a moment but eventually gave in. She set her glass on the coffee table as well and extended her hand back to Rawlf's. He pulled her gently unto him, making her straddle him on his lap. Rawlf embraced her on her waist and rested his head on her chest.

　　He took a deep breath and the sensation from it and the touch of his face on her chest tickles Veronica. She anchored her hands on the back of his neck, soothing him in the process. He really must have been exhausted.

　　"I have missed you." Rawlf started. "Where have you been?" "Earlier or-"

　　"Five years ago. You suddenly disappeared five years ago. Where have you been?"

　　Veronica wasn't prepared for this. All along she never hoped that he could remember her and yet here he was, asking her things she never expected from him.
