Veronica's POVI looked at my watch and sighed. I am nervous, why did he call me for dinner.I mean I am excited that the Vice president of our hospital wants to meet me but this kind of dinner feels uneasy. I have never been in a meeting like this. I looked around, the crowd here belongs to the upper class and I can feel a few eyes on me. After all I am still Mrs. Volkov. I fixed my dress, It's decent. Preferable for professional dinner. "I apologise, I hope you are not waiting for a long..."I looked up when I heard his voice. I got up and greeted him."Absolutely not sir, It's fine..."He is aged, he smiled making wrinkles on his face prominent. "Actually there is heavy snowfall, roads are blocked!"He took a seat in front of me. "I understand!"I gave him smile. "Dr. Veronica!"He chuckled at me."First of all, I am really proud of you... You are a gem of our hospital... What a wonderful work you do. Amazing woman you are..."I should feel happy by his words but his words a

Author's POV Vera scowled in guilt when she looked at Vlad's clothes. He was drenched in a coffee. "This way!"She led him inside the building when they got out of the car. Vlad looked around and found his guards everywhere. The hawker in front of her building. He tried to greet Vlad but he warned him with his eyes. The watchman stood up when he saw Vlad and Vlad closed his eyes. Not getting how to stop them, if they keep reacting then Vera will realise it. Vlad called Michelle."Я с Вероникой у нее дома, вы должны сообщить всем охранникам, чтобы они меня не узнавали." ( I am with Veronica at her place, you have to inform all the guards not to acknowledge my presence.)Vera looked at him when he talked in Russian. Vlad smiled at her and disconnected the call. "Business!"She nodded. She is still not good in Russian. She opened the door and gestured him to get inside. Vlad entered and looked around, his apartment was really looking like an house. Before that it was just a

Author's POV"He told me when you took me home after surgery..."Ryaan said while Vera was sitting at her table with a sore face. "And you didn't think it's important to tell me..."She mumbled, Ryaan could understand that she was really disappointed. "I didn't want to make you stressed... You were already heartbroken..."Ryaan dragged the chair and sat in front of her. "Vera!"He gently held her hand.Vera shook her head as her eyes watered."Ryaan, you are my only family and only god knows what I have done to protect you from everything... I can't..."She gulped down the lumb in her throat."I can't imagine you dealing with something Mila and I faced tonight... I can't even imagine... Do you realise the seriousness of the situation..."Ryaan looked down guiltily."I don't know why you are attached to Vlad so much but this is not a collage breakup where you are trying to bring us together again... It's not happening...""What if I would have tell you."Ryaan asked and she looked a

Author's POVVera couldn't win against him. He refused to leave her room until she finished her food and she did, thinking he would go away. She handed him empty plate."Happy?"He smirked and placed it away. "Thank you..."She gave him a mocking smile and pulled on her bed sheet."Now if you allow me..."She laid back on the bed. "One more thing!..."He said and she looked at him."You can't stay in this room...""Don't start now... I am not staying in your room..."She warned."Vera, Grace is in the same house..."He sighed."I don't want her to know about this...""I think she is mature enough to understand that we have separated..."Vera said."Yes but she will ask for reasons, you know her... And I can't tell her that you left me because I used you against your father so I can take the throne, because I wanted to avenge him for killing my mother... You know her mental health, she is not strong enough to understand this... And she has suffered enough to let her know this... Til

Author's POVVera peaked while hiding behind the wall to see if Vlad was anywhere. She doesn't want to come in his view after whatever she did to him in the morning. It was almost evening, she avoided him the whole day but now she wanted to freshen up. She sighed in relief when she didn't find him in the bedroom.She went inside and locked the door. Lights were off so she turned it on and took off her shoes. Her body was aching, so she went to the washroom and locked the door. One thing she liked about Vlad is, his choice in interiors. His washroom is big, with a huge bathtub. Glass walls separating each section. She enjoys how black tiles makes it look sexy. She stopped in front of the mirror and slowly unbuttoned her shirt. She tied her hair up after sliding down her shirt from her shoulders and letting it fall around her feet along with her trousers. She gently traced her neck and outline of her bra, praising her body in appreciation with her delicate fingers. She was wearin
