A Sweet Night The CEO Loves His Wife Ardently

Raymond looked into Veronica's eyes steadily.

"Are you upset because of your parents?" Raymond guessed.

When Raymond said that, a trace of panic flashed in Veronica's eyes.

"No. No."

Raymond narrowed his eyes. "The only person you can reach now is your mother. What did she say to you?"

Being forced into a corner by Raymond, Veronica looked at Raymond angrily.

Her words were filled with anger. "Raymond, can you stop asking? This is my privacy. I don't want to say it. Can't you leave me some privacy?"

Because Veronica was so mad, Raymond moved his lips weakly.

"Because I care about you. Seeing you so upset, I am worried."

Veronica was shocked at Raymond's words.

She was originally very mad, but Raymond's words dispelled all of her anger all of a sudden.Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org exclusive © material.

Veronica wiped the railing of the villa as she said, "It's nothing. I heard some news today. My mother told me that she was not my biological mother, and my father was not my biological father. I ... was just an orphan adopted from an orphanage to fool my father."

Raymond was stunned.

Veronica's calm account of the cruel truth made him feel sad.

No wonder she suddenly had a breakdown this afternoon and became so sad.

After Raymond grabbed Veronica's hand, he pulled the cloth in her hand and threw it aside.

"Okay, stop this. You haven't eaten dinner yet. You should eat something."

As soon as Raymond finished speaking, Veronica's stomach let out a rumbling sound. Yes, she was hungry. Instantly, Veronica flushed. Veronica originally wanted to reject Raymond, but her stomach wanted food. If she rejected it now, it would be even more awkward. Raymond smiled and pulled Veronica down the stairs. Veronica did not refuse.

Marie saw that Raymond had persuaded Veronica to come down the steps. She quickly brought a bowl of noodles for Veronica. Marie cooked the noodles when Raymond went to find Veronica. Now the noodles were just ready.

There was a poached egg on top of the vegetables and noodles.

It was very fragrant and tasty.

At the dining table, Veronica sat down. Marie brought the bowl of noodles to Veronica and handed her a fork.

"Veronica, I just cooked the noodles for you. Hurry up and eat them. They will be less tasty later."

"Thank you, Marie."

Marie suddenly realized that Raymond was sitting next to Veronica. She asked, "Mr. Cordova, you haven't had dinner yet, right?"

"No!"

"There are some noodles left. I'll get you some."

When Marie brought the noodles to Raymond, they were much less than Veronica's noodles. Moreover, there were only noodles, no vegetables or eggs.

Raymond was the master of this family, but Marie treated Veronica much better than him.

"Marie, can't you cook more noodles for me? Can't you at least put in some green vegetables and an egg?" he asked.

Marie was looking at Veronica lovingly. When she heard Raymond's words, she turned to look at him with a trace of disdain. "Mr. Cordova, didn't you say you've put on some weight lately? It's late at night. Don't eat too much."

Raymond was speechless.

So was Veronica.

Even Veronica felt that Raymond didn't look like the head of the family.

He was the CEO of the Cordova Group. But his position at home was a little low.

Veronica only knew half of the story.

Raymond's position in the family was very low.

Back then, after Bryson and Audrey had Raymond, Bryson thought Raymond was a burden. He always left Raymond to the servants. If Audrey treated Raymond even a little better, Bryson would immediately throw Raymond to school out of jealousy.

Raymond was the pride of the Cordova family, yet he had to live in a boarding school. He was so upset.

Originally, Raymond thought that his parents would love him more after they had another child. But their second child was a daughter. They had been wanting a daughter for many years. They immediately left him aside and only cared about his younger sister. In his family, Raymond had a lower status than his sister.

When he was young, Raymond could only go to find the servants whenever he felt left out by his parents. Therefore, in front of the old servants at home, Raymond was never the authority. However, even though Raymond didn't act tough before Marie and the others, they all treated him like their own child.

Normally, Raymond did not like to put on airs. Even if Marie and the others did not take Raymond seriously, they would not treat him like this. Now Marie was obviously favoring Veronica. Marie must like Veronica very much.

He felt that if Veronica became his girlfriend, his family status would be at the bottom again.

However, he didn't have to think about this right now. Veronica was not his girlfriend yet, so it was nothing if Marie was nice to her.

Marie glanced at Raymond.

She thought, 'I'm doing you a favor. If I don't treat her well, how can she stay and become your wife?'

Because Veronica was in a bad mood today, after dinner, she went back to her room to sleep.

The next morning, Veronica woke up early to do housework. Raymond saw it and did not say anything. However, before he left, he parked the car at the entrance of the villa and waited for Veronica. "Get in the car!" Raymond told Veronica.

Without hesitation, Veronica got into Raymond's car.

The school still had classes today, so Raymond sent Veronica to school.

After they arrived at the school gate, Veronica said "Thank you" and was about to open the door to get off.

Raymond, who was sitting in the driver's seat, suddenly grabbed Veronica's wrist.

Veronica turned to look at Raymond in confusion. "Mr. Cordova, do you have anything else to say?"

"I specially drove you to school. You only said 'thank you' and that's it?" Raymond looked calmly at Veronica's beautiful face.

Veronica frowned. Then she bowed to Raymond. "Thank you very much for driving me to school, Mr. Cordova. I am very grateful. Is this okay?"

Raymond narrowed his eyes and pointed to his right cheek.

"If ... you kiss me here, that would be even better."

Veronica was speechless.
