Veronica CEO's Underworld Queen novel Chapter 25

　　It was five in the morning the next day that Veronica woke up, once again, tightly embraced by Rawlf.

　　His arms snakes around her waist as he spoon her on the bed. She had set a schedule that day to meet up with her good friends but that was still later at noon.

　　Knowing as her schedule is free that morning, she decided to indulge herself being embraced by Rawlf Sy.

　　Rawlf was wide awake minutes before Veronica did but he wanted to take the moment enjoying the feeling of pure bliss having her in his arms.

　　When he felt her stirred, he pretended to be still asleep but tightened his hold on her to prevent her from moving away from him just in case.

　　Last night was, he believed, one of the best things in his life till date. He never understood the importance of human connection if not for her. And that night, he finally was able to experience it.

　　It's like having to reach an orgasm but this time, no sexual intecourse. He would rather call it "emotional intercourse". 'Right, most befitting word. Rawlf felt accomplished coining that term.

　　Rawlf sensed Veronica had woken up because of the changes in her breath's rhythm but what made him happy was the fact that she didn't move out of his arms but rather stayed until she fell back to sleep. Veronica is simply the most chill person he'd ever meet.

　　No extra drama. She seemed to have achieved this phase of zen where she didn't bother to waste her energy on things. It's like she's living in a philosophical way. All things that make her feel good are good so why complicate it.

　　As long as it doesn't overstep anyone's comfort, it's good.

　　If last night it's with another kind of woman, for sure, he'll have to face a lot of drama and gasping episodes. But it's not like it mattered to him though, as long as it's her, he would never mind getting acquainted with her many colours.

　　He was already looking forward to seeing an angry or pouting Veronica, annoyed Veronica, bubbly Veronica, excited Veronica, all things Veronica.

　　Maybe little buns that look like Veronica will be cute too.

　　Rawlf himself was now alarmed by how possessive and obsessed he had become of her. Maybe he needed to take time and go on meditating on this, he thought.

　　Sensing as Veronica fell back to sleep, Rawlf carefully moved not to wake her up to start his day and prepare for his office.

　　Ilo's Coffee House

　　"Vivi, you just don't know how worried we had been after you and your family vanished like thin air. More on with the fact that none of us could contact you! But you never even tried to contact us at least to inform us you were safe!" Yvette said in an angry manner yet her voice is laced with sincere worry.

　　"Yvette!" The rest, Pearl, Rose, Paola, Floyd and Gedmaire synchronized but were undeniably agreeing on Yvette's last sentence.

　　Everyone's eyes widened after hearing what Veronica had said. Gedmaire was first to recover. "So you're super rich now, Miss Wang?' How about hiring us at your law firm."

　　Veronica rolled her eyes, "It's not like I still don't know yet that you, Floyd and Pearl owned the Regula Trium Law Firm."

　　"How about considering joining our firm? I mean as one of the owners." Pearl quipped in a gentle voice.

　　"That's a good plan. Besides, the firm had been very successful and sought after by many people in City I." Floyd added.

　　"Friends," Veronica started. "I know that you were trying to be as accommodating as possible for my sudden return but the law firm I had in mind will only deal with corporations. Regula Trium I believed was established by the three of you to also help those people who are financially incapable of getting lawyers for themselves. Your law firm is another benevolent institution.

　　However, mine is for profit and profit alone."

　　"Alright then. I'll send someone for you to check the place and if it's to your liking, just contact my secretary right away so it can be process.I would have personally tour you around the area if not only for the fact that I need to attend a business convention in City M tomorrow and I'll be leaving for the city tonight." Rose right away agreed which made Veronica shake her head.

　　After everything she went through, she's still fortunate to have good friends who stayed by her side even after all the controversies and years had passed.

　　"Will do. And keep safe. Be sure to find a good man there though." Everyone burst with laughter.
