"I told you before but I'm telling you again. I like you very much at first sight. If you had been single, I wouldn't have waited to make you mine" he confessed making her cheeks go crimson red with shame. "Yes, you've told me before. But me and Carter came a long way. We met in high school and then he followed me all the way to Italy, it was quite movie like" she told him as he smiled and twirled her around when the tune changed. "Carter was complicated, I could never understand him. However now you're single. I hope whenever you'll made up your mind, I'll be the first one on list" he wasn't ashamed to admit that he still liked her. She laughed, she couldn't help control it. "You're flirting with a woman who's son is sleeping in your bed" she commented. "Well I'm talking about accepting the mama along with the son" he added and her expressions softened. "What?" She said between controlling her laugh. "I'm serious Veronica, we both can start together. You'll marry to, it's not
When she came home she couldn't help but think about Reynold and the kiss they shared. She didn't know why she responded to him, but she felt really guilty of it. She was equally responsible for what happened, he shouldn't have apologised for it. It made her feel responsible even more. After Carter's death, she didn't go to her studio much as she liked to spent time on home more. But her studio was still working, her girls were now professional designers under her training and were taking orders by themselves. But this one woman only wanted to get her dress designed by Veronica. It was a wedding dress and Veronica had enough time too so she agreed. After hearing her preferences, she designed the sketch on a paper. Then she bought the material which was needed. And then on a dummy, she started starting stitching the pieces together. Her hair tied into a bun while she wore a sweatshirt and sweat pants, she didn't focus on herself much but more on her work. "Miss Veronica, someone is
After the incredible make out, she went to her room and he cleaned himself. The smirk never left his face, as he realised just what he has done. He couldn't believe it, it was happening. He was finally making progress with Veronica. It was an impossible thing for him but now he realised that it was the mutual feelings and the happiness doubled. He loved her body red with kisses, her nose and cheeks flushed while she gasped for he fucked her. It was a beautiful sight to his eyes. He experienced her naked for the very first time and his fantasies found their way into his head again. He couldn't wait to fuck with her with his dick and make her scream his name. But he was slow in the beginning. *Veronica couldn't believe it what she just had done. It was unbelievable that she just got fucked by Reynold and even made her cum on his fingers. She took off her clothes and stood in the shower, cleaning herself with the water assuming it to be holy water because God forgive she just committ
It was after two days when he returned back to Italy and she had no idea because was busy designing her dress. Alex was with his nanny, taking a round in the lawn and learning the names of different flowers. She relaxed down on the couch after working straight for two hours. She was sipping on the juice when a maid knocked on the door. "Come in" she told her and the maid stepped in her direction. She held a white box in her hand which was enclosed with a white ribbon around it. "Miss Veronica, this came for you" the maid told her and forwarded the box. Only them she saw that it had a note tuck on top of it too. "Who sent it?" She asked the maid. "I'm sorry but I'm not aware" she told Veronica and Veronica dismissed her right after. She placed the box on the table and started unwrapping it. As soon she removed the lid, she found a milk white, silk dress wrapped in a tissue paper. She traced her fingers over the silk, it was soft and light as a feather and it's shine would blind
He got up from his chair and sat down on his knees as she watched him with anticipation. He slipped his one hand in his pocket and took out a velvet box from it. She gasped when he opened it and the shiny diamond ring shone under the warm light of the box. The ring was round with small diamonds engraved all around it. The delicate design with its alluring appearance intrigued her so much that she was unable to move her eyes away from the piece of jewelry. But the most important thing about this timeless piece was the person presenting her at this moment with kind intentions. "I've like you the moment I set my eyes on you. You're like a firefly in dark night. I'm ready to accept as who you are, and I'm gonna embrace your pros and cons. I will try to make you happy while you're with me and you'll never feel alone. So Veronica would you marry me?" His proposal jolted her from head to toe. "I cannot believe Reynold! But do you also accept my son? I appreciate your feelings but he is a
As soon as she returned home, Reynold left the main door. It was quite late and he didn't want to come in and bother anyone. So he did what was suitable at the moment. As soon she stepped on the floor, she took off her heels first and carried them in her hand. She retired to her room immediately. Taking the dress off and wiping the makeup off with wipes, her skin still glowed. All thanks to her 10 step skincare. She changed into her night suit and couldn't sleep without Alex by her side. So she slipped into his room, his nanny was sleeping right beside his cot. She took out Alex from the cot and returned to her room. Placing him on the bed, she laid by his side and kissed his forehead. Only then sleep could engulf her and she closed her eyes. *It was early morning when she got awake from her sleep. Surprisingly Alex was not awake yet, even though he would be the first one to get up first in the early morning. Voluntarily she checked his forehead and it was burning. Breath stuck
After Alex was discharged they brought him back home in the evening. Veronica was very much tired so after making Alex sleep, she came down to the living room where Reynold awaited her. Alex's Nanny was also being extra careful so she didn't leave his side even for a second. "How's he?" Reynold asked as soon as she sank into the couch near him. "He's perfectly fine but the fear won't fade easily" she told him as she rubbed her forehead. He raked a hand in her hair and twirled her hair around his fingers. "You look tired, seems like you haven't got enough sleep?" He asked with concerned eyes. "Yeah, probably due to Alex..." She was about to complete her sentence when her stomach grumbled in between. With embarrassment she turned red and he laughed loudly at the sound. "Seems like you need food more than sleep! Let me make you something" he suggested as he got up from his place but she grabbed his hand. "I'll ask the maid to make something, don't bother. You must be tired too af
Veronica was on her way to meet her next big client in a prestigious restaurant. Today she took Alex with her too, but left him in the playing area with other toddlers. This client was a difficult one to deal with. Her demands and expectations sky rocketed and how much Veronica tried to satisfy her, her claims won't end. She was not sure even herself what she wanted and she was troubling Veronica for no good reason. Veronica scribbled her requirements in her diary as she dictated. She told her that as soon she would sketch a rough idea, she would show her first before working on it. If she approave then they can discuss the payment. Her client finally reached a mutual agreement and she finalized the deal. As soon her client left, Veronica heaved a sigh. She bought Alex back from the playing area and sat with him. "What do you want to eat?" She asked him with a chuckle as he looked in a foul mood. "Chocolate milkshake" he replied with a frown. He didn't like being left alone there
Wearing a white dress which was adorned with pearls in it, long enough for the bridesmaids to carry and expensive enough to not touch the ground. Shaping her figure perfectly as its silk hugged all of her curves and kissed every inch of her body like no one could. A net veil hanging above her face as a diamond head piece on her head as if she was a queen walking towards her throne. Her fragile hands had a bouquet of white roses in between them which had also had pearl studded in it as they were held together with a ribbon. Her father on her side while Sam on her other side. Her mother was also beside her as she walked towards the aisle. People gasped watching the new bride coming in, her hair style looked so fine and natural as if made in heaven with perfection. Her face had the most nature makeup on as if angels did it with their own hands. Her Gucci heels made her stand tall and confident. The scent of flowery cologne was so strong that everyone close to her was enchanted with her
Reynold did exactly as he said. He called off the deal and abducted Gerard on his way to his home. Kept him in his warehouse and tortured him for days until he begged for his death. But he didn't allow it yet. He got his employee back and even apologized to her for such a harsh attitude she had to go through. Everyone was surprised but that's how he was. He always kept it equal. Either with his enemies or friends. He never liked anyone having an upper hand on him. He even rewarded his employee with a bonus as a compensation for her emotional loss. The footage also came out as evidence and he didn't need anymore proof to prove he was actually a bastard. The following day, Veronica asked him to join her as they had to get Alex admission in school. He was going to join the play group batch with all the other toddlers. Veronica already confirmed the spot and all the arrangements were done for the admission. They only had to go and get him enrolled. Veronica didn't want to make Alex f
"care to tell me why would you do that miss? Are you aware how much loss our company has to bear just because of your one stupid behaviour!" He shouted in her face as the poor woman trembled with fear. "I'm sorry sir" she apologized meekly, not lifting her gaze from the floor. "I have no space for sorrys! I am going to fire you!" He announced and she looked up at him, immediately. Losing her job meant that she would never get a job in such a prestigious firm. Most of the companies in interviews always question why they got fired from the previous one and then they don't even hire. "Please sir don't do that! I will try my best next time but your client molested me that's why I couldn't contain my anger and slapped him! I'm sorry, I will not treat anyone like that again!" She started crying as she continued to beg him. "What?" He couldn't believe what he just listened to. Did she really mean by word molested?"Gerard molested you? Miss you should watch your tongue before making suc
"I think I don't want to ruin the moment we're in, so let's leave it for tomorrow morning." She enclosed the topic without revealing anything. But that discomfort still laid deep in her heart and she couldn't wait to let it out.."As you say, but I want to hear it out tomorrow. I won't accept excuses then" he stated and she heaved a sigh as she nodded in response. The cake was set aside as he kissed her on lips and she needed that kiss as she indulged in more and let it continue to a full blown kiss as they made out on the table. He gripped her ass and made her sit on the table as he got in between her legs and grinded his groin against her womanhood while she moaned relentlessly on his mouth. "You're so gorgeous! I'll never get enough of you!" He whispered in her ear as she kissed his neck and down to his Adam's apple. She unbuttoned his shirt and raked a hand over his perfectly built chest and chiseled muscles. Feeling his abes beneath her skin made her arouse so much. "You're we
He was done with his lunch after a while as they both chatted along. He was happy that he finally got these moments of bliss to spend with her after such a hectic routine of the past week. After lunch wrapped up, his assistant knocked in and informed him that Mr Gerard was waiting for him. Veronica got up from her place and picked up her bag, ready to leave. "I should send a driver with you! You shouldn't go yourself" he said considerately as he picked up the receiver to make a call. "Uhh no! I came with my own driver. I'd love to see you tonight or the night after, if your work permits you, of course " she teased him as she headed towards the door. "I get what you mean! I'll see you for sure! Wait for me" he winked before he pecked her lips and she opened the door to leaveBut at the same time the door got opened from the other side as well and Gerard appeared. Both of their eyes met and there was some mockery dancing in his eyes as she looked at Veronica and then smiled at Reyn
They spent the remaining trip discovering different cities of Europe and then in the end they visited Istanbul, Maldives and Thailand. Their trip turned out to be amazing except the hustle of carrying Alex everywhere. Most of the time it became so inconvenient for Veronica to look after him that she regretted it but after all he was her son and she didn't give up on him. Their trip before marriage was the most thrilling experience they had in their lives as they did a lot of shopping and tried out many amazing foods from different cultures. As usual Veronica liked Paris very much due to their warm and welcoming weather and on top of that it had a romantic vibe to it. While Reynold liked all the cities and didn't pick out his favourite. On top of that Veronica got her dress made in Istanbul as she really liked their gowns and decided to go up for size measurements. They chose a beautiful elegant dress which looked gorgeous on Veronica's curves. Reynold was very much excited and he b
After she said yes to marriage, he planned a trip for both of them before marriage. He wanted to see the world with her before they could get married and it involved all their destination places they had been planning since their teenage years.They both were aware that it was going to a long trip and they decided that right after they'll come back home, they'll get married with some intimate family members around. Veronica was thrilled with just having to plan such an amazing trip. She lists down all the countries she wanted to ever since she was a child. Although that also included Italy but now that she was practically living in it, she didn't add that. Their first destination was London starting from Europe. They both packed their bags, stuffed in a lot of warm clothes that they were going to need and some shoes comfortable for travelling. As much as the idea of travelling around the world was intriguing, she was worried about leaving Alex alone with his Nanny. She was going to
"hey!" She chimed over the phone after Reynold picked it over the third ring. "Hi! You sound excited" he hinted at the enthusiasm in her voice. "Yeah I am! Let's have dinner together tonight" she proposed while biting her nails as she was nervous if he would accept it or deny her offer. "Uhh sure, I'll text you when I'm free. Pick you up from your place?" He agreed after a thoughtful observation at his schedule. "Yeah sure, but the place will be of my choice" she stated and he agreed. Soon right after they ended the call, she jumped excitedly on the bed. This was going to be an amazing night after she'll tell him about her feelings and will confess how much she loves him. Her decision is only going to enhance their status of relationship and they will get closer than ever. She made a call to Sam who was in his office and running everyday errands for his family. She told him about how she has fallen in love for the second time and she is going to marry him. "Send me his picture!
Chauffeur opened the door for her and her silver Gucci heel stepped down before she appeared in all her glory and praise. Her sparkling dress was going to be the hot gossip among women tonight and burning sensation in men's chest. But she knew who she belongs to as Reynold wrapped a hand around her waist, firmly and protectively. They were welcomed inside the ball and all the gazes slowly shifted towards the new couple. Her breath was erratic and get hands clammy. There was so much audience and cameras clicking everywhere that her eyes started to hurt from the flashes. When she looked down only then she realised that she was walking on the red carpet. "Don't be nervous! Hold your head high and walk like a queen you are" he whispered in her ear making the goosebumps skitter across her bare skin with his warm voice in that chilling cold. She offered him a smile in return but followed his advice. She held his hand tightly for support as they walked through people and everyone greeted
