Chapter 701
\nA Sweet Night: The CEO Loves His Wife Ardently novel Chapter 701<\/p>\n
After leaving the hospital, Veronica was about to take a taxi. When she walked along the corridor, a lamp on the ceiling suddenly swayed in the wind.<\/p>\n
Veronica felt weird because that kind of lamp shouldn’t be shaking.<\/p>\n
Then, Veronica saw that the snails above the lamp had loosened, almost about to fall.<\/p>\n
Another gust of wind blew, and the lamp was about to fall from above. A middle-aged lady happened to pass by under the lamp, but the lady did not notice it.<\/p>\n
Veronica suddenly widened her eyes. Without a second thought, she rushed forward and pushed the middle-aged lady away.<\/p>\n
They fell to the ground together, and then they heard the shattering sound of the lamp behind them.<\/p>\n
The middle-aged lady shivered in fear in Veronica’s arms.<\/p>\n
The loud noise attracted the attention of many people nearby. The staff in the hospital rushed over to check it out.<\/p>\n
Veronica helped the middle-aged lady up and asked with concern, “Madame, are you alright?”<\/p>\n
The middle-aged lady nodded with a pale face. She looked a little startled. She hadn’t recovered from the shock.<\/p>\n
Veronica helped the middle-aged woman up. After recovering from the shock, the middle-aged woman quickly held Veronica’s hand. “Little girl, how are you? Did you get hurt?”<\/p>\n
Veronica grinned. Her beautiful eyes were smiling too. “Madame, don’t worry. I’m okay.”<\/p>\n
Seeing Veronica’s smile, the middle-aged lady felt that Veronica looked familiar.<\/p>\n
Zoey was on the phone when she heard the sound. When Zoey rushed over, she immediately saw her mother standing with Veronica. There was a shattered lamp behind them.<\/p>\n
Zoey rushed forward and pushed Veronica away. “Mom, are you okay?”<\/p>\n
After being pushed, Veronica staggered and fell to the side. The small leather shoes on her feet were not high, but she still couldn’t stand firmly.<\/p>\n
Veronica tottered a little before finally stabilizing her body.<\/p>\n
When Winy Comte saw her daughter Zoey, her panic eased a little.<\/p>\n
“Zoey, I’m fine. A lamp almost fell on me. But this little girl pushed me away before it fell. So, I’m safe.”<\/p>\n
Winy pointed at Veronica, who was pushed away by Zoey.<\/p>\n
After hearing Winy’s words, Zoey turned around to look at Veronica. She immediately saw Veronica’s face.<\/p>\n
Zoey felt that Veronica looked familiar, but she did not know where she had seen Veronica.<\/p>\n
Winy got rid of Zoey’s hand. Instead, she turned to grab Veronica’s hand and asked, “What’s your name, little girl?”<\/p>\n
Veronica was a little embarrassed by Winy’s sudden move. She hated being so close to people, so she pushed Winy’s hand and withdrew her hand from Winy’s grip.<\/p>\n
“Nice to meet you, Mrs. Comte. My name is Veronica Luke.”<\/p>\n
When Zoey heard Veronica’s name, her expression changed instantly.<\/p>\n
‘Veronica, Veronica! Her name is Veronica!’<\/p>\n
Zoey looked at Veronica with a weird look. “You are Veronica Luke, the daughter of the former chairman of the Luke Wood Group?”<\/p>\n
Veronica was surprised that Zoey knew about her.<\/p>\n
“Do you know me?” Veronica carefully sized up Zoey. She felt that Zoey’s face looked a little familiar. She seemed to have seen Zoey somewhere before. However, she could not remember. “Miss, do we know each other before?”<\/p>\n
Zoey’s body was trembling.<\/p>\n
“You… You don’t remember anything?”<\/p>\n
When Zoey said that, Veronica felt even more strange.<\/p>\n
“What should I remember?” Veronica furrowed her brows greatly.<\/p>\n
From Veronica’s reaction and expression, Zoey could tell that Veronica wasn’t lying. So when Zoey looked at Veronica again, she became relieved.<\/p>\n
At this time, Veronica suddenly wanted to call her mother.<\/p>\n
She found her mother’s number and dialed it.<\/p>\n
No one answered the first call. When Veronica was about to hang up the second call, her mother finally picked up the phone.<\/p>\n
Her mother’s lazy and impatient voice came from the phone.<\/p>\n
“What’s up?”<\/p>\n
Veronica heard the music from her mother’s side. It was the music that her mother liked to listen to when she was having a spa in the beauty salon. She should be very unhappy now as she was interrupted by Veronica’s call.<\/p>\n
However, even if she was having a spa, a common mother would not have such an irritated tone when she received a call from her daughter.<\/p>\n
“Mom, are you at the beauty salon?”<\/p>\n
“Yes, if there’s nothing you want to say, then goodbye!” Her mother became more impatient.<\/p>\n
“Mom, I suddenly miss you today.”<\/p>\n
Her mother sounded alert. “You miss me? You don’t want money, do you? I don’t have money for you right now.”<\/p>\n
“No.” Then Veronica told her mother what had happened today. “I thought I wasn’t Dad’s child. I was scared.”<\/p>\n
On the other side of the line, her mother’s voice paused.<\/p>\n
“You’re right. You are not Brian’s daughter.”<\/p>\n
Her mother’s words were like a bomb stirring up Veronica’s mind.<\/p>\n
“Mom, what did you say? I know you’re lying to me on purpose. I…”<\/p>\n
“I am not lying to you. You are indeed not Brian’s child. You are not my biological daughter, either.”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","class_list":["post-4032","chapter","type-chapter","status-publish","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/nirvanaharapan.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/chapter\/4032","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=4032"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
