Veronica CEO's Underworld Queen novel Chapter 93

  Both the twins after sometime became comfortable with the old master Sy.

  Too comfortable that Baelfair was now seated on the old master's lap while Baelfire was just contently seated beside his grandfather asking him questions about the business world which the old master Sy readily and willingly answered.

  Some information is even the highly confidential ones which should have remained secret between Rawlf and Robert as those concerned the Sy International yet, the old master Sy was giving it away, in the open, for Baelfire to absorb.

  Baelfair, on one hand, was once again munching on her oatmeal cookie while listening rather too intently with her grandfather's words.

  This does not escape Rawlf, Veronica, and even the old master Sy's observation.

  The three were seated on the other side of the sofa lounge while on the separate side seated Veronica and Rawlf who was constantly caressing Veronica on her hair, back and sometimes, in her arms. This too, did not escape the old master Sy's observation.

  He was observing this future daughter -in-law and with the way she carried herself, the old master Sy clearly saw confidence and power in her.

  'So far so good. He liked this daughter in law. What's not to like anyway?! She already gave him gifted grandchildren! And yes grandchildren! Not one but two grandchildren!!' The old master Sy thought to himself.

  Based on the information his men gathered so far, this future daughter in law's family reputation wasn't doing good.

  Her then vice-governor father was painted with a graft and corruption case that caused the family to escape abroad. That is the surface story. But with the old master Sy's connection, delving into his future daughter in law's family, the history, and the factualness of what happened years ago was easy to discover.

  It turned out that Eddie Wang was accused wrongly, a political maneuver of his contra-partido. There's no basis on the filed lawsuit and later on was dismissed. The family didn't escape abroad but rather, Eddie Wang's wife sought the advanced medical treatment for her husband. The old master Sy only has that information because his men told him that after the family went abroad, they seemed to have vanished just like a smoke.

  This made the old master Sy very curious and was determined to know the truth from this future daughter in law.

  "When will your parents return home for the marriage?"

  Veronica suddenly coughed and Rawlf helped her by rubbing on her back.

  "Veronica and I still have a lot of things to finish first, father. But once everything is settled, we'll have the wedding."

  The old master Sy remained silent. But after a while, he asked once again, "Then, when are they returning back to the country?"

  "My parents decided to settle in Country R for good, uncle. My father is still undergoing his rehabilitation and traveling is not yet fit for him", Veronica replied with sincerity.

  Veronica's answer confirmed the information which the old master Sy's men gathered.
