Chapter 697
\nA Sweet Night: The CEO Loves His Wife Ardently novel Chapter 697<\/p>\n
A large drop of sweat appeared on Justin’s forehead.<\/p>\n
“Veronica, listen to me!” Then, Justin thought, ‘I haven’t told Veronica my feelings yet. How should I face Veronica in the future after Mom said so?’<\/p>\n
Justin was mad at his mother for ridiculing Veronica in this way.<\/p>\n
Veronica looked at Serena calmly.<\/p>\n
“Mrs. Bernard, please apologize to me!”<\/p>\n
“What did you say? Apologize? Do you want me to apologize?” Serena snorted with obvious contempt in her eyes. “Didn’t you admit that you were an orphan? Did I mishear?”<\/p>\n
Veronica said, “It is true that my parents are divorced and that I live alone. However, both my parents are still alive, so I am not an orphan. Therefore, please apologize to me.”<\/p>\n
Serena considered this speech a joke.<\/p>\n
“Veronica, given your attitude now, never will I accept you to be my daughter-in-law.”<\/p>\n
Justin looked at Veronica with sweat all over his forehead. Justin wished that Veronica and his mother would stop the fight now.<\/p>\n
“Veronica, Mom, please stop.”<\/p>\n
Veronica straightened her back and looked at Serena fearlessly. “Mrs. Bernard, let me make one thing clear now. Never have I thought of being your daughter-in-law. I won’t be with your son.”<\/p>\n
Serena snorted. “If so, why did my son refuse the marriage I arranged for him? He said that he would marry you in the future. He wouldn’t do so without your seduction.”<\/p>\n
Veronica took a deep breath and then looked at Justin.<\/p>\n
“Justin, I think you owe me an explanation.”<\/p>\n
Instantly, Serena stepped forward to protect Justin.<\/p>\n
“What explanation? I have seen through your trick. You intend to shift the blame on my son. I won’t allow you to do so,” Serena spoke with sarcasm. “What a vixen you are! My son has been good. I didn’t expect that he would be enchanted by you. I will cut you off from my son even if I have to risk my life.”<\/p>\n
Serena looked Veronica up and down again and then sneered, “You are alone. Who knows how licentious you are?”<\/p>\n
This was personal abuse.<\/p>\n
Both Veronica and Justin looked bad.<\/p>\n
“Mom, how could you say that?” Justin defended Veronica angrily.<\/p>\n
“Why couldn’t I? Look at you! You talk back for her sake now!” Serena was furious.<\/p>\n
“Mom, you…”<\/p>\n
Right then, a clear male voice came from behind.<\/p>\n
“What are you arguing about here?”<\/p>\n
The group in the argument heard this question, looked at the speaker at the same time, and then saw Raymond standing behind Veronica.<\/p>\n
The Bernard couple knew Raymond, and Antoine’s eyes instantly lit up.<\/p>\n
“Mr. Cordova, I am the chairman of the Bernard Medicine!” Speaking, Antoine handed a business card to Raymond. “What a good surprise to meet you here! What a coincidence.”<\/p>\n
Raymond smiled as he tightened his grip on Veronica’s shoulder. “What? Isn’t this obvious? Veronica is my girlfriend.”<\/p>\n
This speech astonished the others on the spot, including Veronica.<\/p>\n
Veronica stared at Raymond with wide-open eyes.<\/p>\n
‘What is he talking about? When did I become his girlfriend?’ Veronica wondered.<\/p>\n
Raymond turned around and winked at Veronica. Veronica immediately got the hint and thought, ‘He tries to help.<\/p>\n
Raymond’s girlfriend won’t seduce a man who is inferior to her boyfriend.’<\/p>\n
Justin was stunned.<\/p>\n
Both Antoine and Serena were in astonishment.<\/p>\n
They had considered Veronica as Raymond’s date or partner, but Raymond called Veronica his girlfriend. This introduction changed everything.<\/p>\n
Serena asked in surprise, “What? Mr. Cordova, is this woman, no, Ms. Luke your girlfriend? Are you … serious?”<\/p>\n
Raymond sneered and gazed at Serena with a domineering aura. “Mrs. Bernard, do you mean that I can’t recognize my girlfriend?”<\/p>\n
Under pressure, Serena trembled and then shook her head. “Of … of course not.”<\/p>\n
Raymond did not let go of Serena and went on, “I heard you accuse my girlfriend of seducing someone.”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","class_list":["post-4028","chapter","type-chapter","status-publish","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/nirvanaharapan.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/chapter\/4028","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/nirvanaharapan.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/chapter"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/nirvanaharapan.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/chapter"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/nirvanaharapan.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=4028"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
