“I’m going to go down and eat with Peter.” Veronica Parker got out of the bed, wrapped the blanket over her body, walked over to pick up the clothes scattered on the floor, and went straight to the bathroom.
She slammed the door shut.
Nick Cage watched as she left the bed with interest in his eyes.
The six little children who had dinner only played on the golf course.
Veronica sat on the grass with a hand on her chin as she looked at the green grass, which she found relaxing.
As she watched her six little children roll over the grass, she could not help but smile.
Isabella came over to Veronica to hand her what she was holding.
Veronica looked at it and smiled and asked, “Why did you give me back this bubble gun?”
“The children wanted to play, so I bought that for them a while ago. I didn’t have the time to bring it out, but I told them that you bought it.”
Veronica looked at the bubble gun and muttered, “I really am a bad mom.”
“Don’t think about it, haven’t you done well enough? The fact that you can come here from time to time proves how much you love them. ” Isabella understood her very well.
What Isabella said was true.
Winter Villa was just a vacation place for Veronica, which was why she doesn’t stay for long here.
It was hard for her to relax when it felt like her heart was about to give up.
She knew very well that she could relax and enjoy her time here because of the six little children around. Their lively and lovely appearances overpowered the bad memories and thoughts about the Winter Villa.
Veronica Parker stood up and went to the six little ones. She only shot the bubble at the six little ones who were having a good time. Suddenly, more than a hundred bubbles flew out and scattered around her and the children.
The six little children slowly approached her and watched the bubbles fly in amazement.
“Wow!”
“Ah!”
“Bubble!”
“That’s a lot!”
“Mom!”
“Wow!”
As the six children saw the bubble, they all differently approached it. Some of them tried to catch the bubbles with their tiny hands, which would pop in their hands. The others watched as the bubbles would pop in their face. While the others would blow away the bubbles and watch them fly away, the others would run after it.
The six little children looked so cute being surrounded by the bubbles.
As Veronica watched the bubbles popping, she shot another bubble mid-air, which would come down and pop at the little faces of the children.
“Mom, do more!” Julie shouted.
“Good, I like making a lot of them.” Veronica Parker would shot the bubbles while running to spread them all over the field, which was also a lot of fun for her. With childlike innocence, she shouted, “Come on, go chase the bubbles!”
Peter ran after the bubble and his mom with his hands and arms wide open. He looked so excited that his face was all red too.
“Bubble, don’t run!”
Veronica Parker, who was preoccupied with the six little ones, did not notice the person in front of her.
She ran straight into the sturdy arms.
Nick Cage looked at her intensely that made her take a deep breath. Her body froze, including her fingers, which meant the gun was blowing bubbles the whole time.
The bubbles swirled and danced around her and Nick Cage.
Nick Cage’s stared at her intensely, as he focused on her for a moment. He was shocked with Veronica bumping into his arms, that it seemed like someone had jumped straight into his heart, suppressing his breath.
“Excuse me.” Veronica Parker recovered and retreated a few steps back, and the bubble in the gun stops erupting.
The following six little ones did not notice the accident at all and were still excitedly playing with the bubbles.
“Come on, play by yourselves.” Veronica Parker gave the bubble gun to Peter.
As Veronica watched the six little children running to the other side to chase the bubbles, she sat down next to the tables and chairs near her and took a sip of the juice.
Nick Cage sat down, too.
They were both silent at first.
“By the way, Mr. Cage, could you tell me who you contacted in the foreign hospital? Tell me who leaked the confidentiality agreement? Veronica Parker looked at Nick Cage with her eyebrows furrowed, and continued, “I signed a confidentiality agreement when I gave birth, and the liquidated damage is about $1 million. I should get the money. You don’t have a problem with that, right?
Nick Cage stared at her deeply, like he was searching for another meaning of what she said.
“Mr. Cage, don’t worry, I’m not a good person.”
Nick Cage’s eyes were aggressive. “You, you really won my heart!”
Veronica Parker was speechless and looked at him with a straight face.
In less than a minute, Nick Cage really asked for the person’s contact information and gave it to Veronica Parker.
Without a moment’s delay, Veronica Parker began to call to deal with the matter. It was reasonable and well-founded, and she had the right to do so.
Bob stood by, watching and listening from beginning to end. He thought the idea was amazing! Was this a partnership for money?
Well, no way! Technically, it was not a fraud, it was just some kind of a secret operation.
It would not be so unlucky if the other party fulfilled the agreement!
They spent two days with the six little ones and had lunch. In the afternoon, Veronica Parker took a nap. While the six little ones took a nap she was preparing to leave.
Anyway, if only the children could stay with her when they miss her.
As soon as she walked into the hall with a backpack, Nick Cage appeared quietly behind her, and his deep serious voice asked, “Where are you going?”
Veronica Parker paused and looked back. “Where else will I go? I’m going home.”
“Why are you in a hurry?”
“Isn’t it a good time for me to leave now?” Veronica Parker asked.
It was inconvenient to go back at night, and she couldn’t bear to leave when they were all awake.
“Send her.” After a cold command, Nick Cage turned and went to the study room.
Veronica Parker looked at Nick Cage back, did not speculate on his uncertain mind, and left without looking back.
Veronica Parker had just returned to her apartment when she received a text message.
As she read the text from the bank, it indicated that the liquidated damages from the hospital were no less than 7 million.
With a smile on her face, Veronica Parker went back to her room happily and fell on the bed.
She stared at the text for a long time.
It was like looking at some rare species.
After all, she has never had so much money! The biggest amount she had was 3 million, which was what her grandmother left her.
She turned over and stared at the window.
With so much money, it was possible to raise six small ones.
However, such an idea was only a dream.
Moreover, only staying with Nick Cage was not only a material guarantees but also a guarantee of life safety.
The appearance of Tom Parker made her feel that she could not protect herself.
If the children were with Nick Cage, they could be safe, and Tom Parker would not even dare to come near them.
That was enough for her.
As long as the children were safe, what she felt didn’t matter.
At 06:00 in the evening, Tom Parker called Veronica, but she didn’t pick up.
It was not until 07:00 that she belatedly appeared at the party hosted by Tom Parker.
It was carried out in the hotel and was held in the banquet hall.
When Veronica Parker entered the banquet hall, she saw Tom Parker toasting with others at a glance.
There were more than a dozen people inside, but the scene was ordinary.
How can a person who was not active in the capital invite people from shopping malls with more than a dozens of people? Even if there were a lot of guests, they were not known people.
Veronica Parker didn’t know much about celebrities, and it was not surprising that she didn’t know anyone, except Tom Parker.
Does this have something to do with these people when Nick Cage gave Tom Parker a big gift before?
“Why don’t you come in here?” Tom Parker came over with a dapper look. Tom Parker handed Veronica a wine glass and as he noticed that Veronica Parker did not reply, he explained, “This is pure juice, no alcohol.”
“I’m only interested in what you said the other day.” Veronica Parker tightened up when she saw Tom Parker approaching.
Her hands and feet were cold.
But in order to know the truth, she could only restrain her fears.
Tom Parker smiled helplessly. “If you want to know, come in and I’ll tell you. I’ll look for a spot for us to sit.”
