“Nick Cage made a fuss. I was all right a minute ago. I almost quarreled with him in order to go out for dinner. ” Veronica Parker said helplessly.
While listening to other people’s conversation, it is as if the husband cares too much about his wife and they are having a little trouble.
Clare Parker would have been furious if she hadn’t been trained to control her temper since childhood. She took a few deep breaths before she suppressed her resentment.
Sarah North pulled her husband next to her. “You should have picked her up!” Was there a father like you?”
Tom Parker smiled apologetically. “Yes, yes, I was careless!”
Veronica Parker listened to the couple as if they were singing a play, with a smile on their faces.
Tom Parker gave Saxon Raglan a look.
When Saxon Raglan received it, he stood up with his glass and walked next to Veronica Parker. “I solemnly apologize to you for what had happened last time!”
With that, he drank up the wine in the glass.
Veronica Parker looked at him faintly, she did not speak, and looked at him as if she was examining him.
The atmosphere was a little awkward.
Tom Parker had to cough.
“The last time we met, I was so arrogant, and I was impressed by the way I apologized to Mr. Raglan and his ability to bend and stretch.”
Sarah North made a deadly look.
“You are much more arrogant than him!”
“I’m very sorry, but I accidentally bumped into you that day. I made a mistake first, and I’m willing to be punished.”
At this point, Veronica Parker stopped as soon as she was ready and waved her hand, “Forget it, I am not such a mean person whether you get punished or not.”
“Thank you, Miss Parker.” Saxon Raglan, sat down.
“I’m going to the bathroom.” Veronica Parker got up and left the room.
She stood in front of the sink and washed her hands and looked at her reflection in the mirror.
She wanted to leave before she ate. She had been talking more than eating!
But she still had to go on for this show.
And she needed to find a way to bring Sarah North to Z city, as long as she stopped staring at Tom Parker’s flash drive.
Then she didn’t need to be noticed when she goes to the company!
She took the initiative to look for it, since it was always not effective to let it come out on its own!
After washing her hands, she was shutting-off the water when someone came out from the men’s room next to her.
Veronica Parker didn’t mind it seriously but she suddenly froze after glancing.
The person who came out of the men’s room was none other than “Toby Cage”.
All of a sudden, they looked at each other.
Veronica Parker looked at him in a daze and met him by surprise, which made her brain lose the ability to think properly.
Toby Cage, whom she hasn’t heard any news from him, just appeared in front of her, as if he had never left her.
But the scene of their last separation was so painful and embarrassing.
Toby Cage looked at her and seemed to change in an instant. He suddenly felt cold all over his body, cold because of Veronica Parker. His hand arched into a fist to control his emotion.
No matter how calm his appearance was, or how much his heart was still affected by her presence, but still his recovering left chest began to ache vaguely again.
As if reminding him of the injuries he had suffered from time to time!
‘Do you want to say, hello? Do you want to ask her how is she doing these days? Do you want to talk to her?’ These were the questions running on his mind.
In just a few seconds, all kinds of opening lines appeared in his mind, but the contradiction, struggle and pain suddenly disappeared in one second.
‘Yes, why do I have to talk to her again,’ He thought.
Since she already made up her mind to fight with Toby Cage in her own way and decided to stay out of way with each other, she didn’t have the guts to speak anymore.
Even one more look was a sin.
Veronica Parker withdrew her eyes, turned her back and left.
“Will it makes you happy to do something like that and ignore me with peace of mind?”
Veronica Parker’s footsteps stopped at Toby Cage’s low and cold voice that touched her nerves, and she stood there unable to move.
“Do you think I’m a fool?”
Veronica Parker swallowed and found her voice. She prevented herself to confess the truth. “It’s not what you said. The fact that you can show up shows that hematemesis did not affect your health, so I don’t have to feel guilty. I don’t want to cause physical harm to you because of me.”
“Is that what you think? Is the body more important than the mind?” Toby Cage stepped forward and grabbed Veronica Parker’s wrist.
Veronica Parker was startled, and pain on her wrist made her frown slightly.
Toby Cage’s eyes fall on the bracelet of her wrist and his eyes were in a trance. “No wonder you didn’t want to wear what I gave you at that time.”
She said to Toby Cage, “I am the woman of Nick Cage, and I gave him six children. You know who I will favor then.”
“What kind of game do you think this is? How could you fight with me and get drunk in a bar with another man?” Toby Cage suppressed his emotions, clenched his back teeth and breathes heavily.
Did Veronica Parker close her eyes and fought for her impulses?
Open your eyes since there aren’t any reason, “No matter what the reason was and the consequences we had, since it already happened you and I are no longer possible. ”
“Is it impossible, or do you not want to?”
Veronica Parker didn’t understand what Toby Cage said.
He looked up at her. ‘Do you still want to be with her? Do you want to be with a woman who slept with another man every day and has six children?’ Those are the questions that was running on his mind.
However, he did not dare to ask these questions.
What she wanted was a ruthless man, not a broken and useless person!
“Toby Cage, I’m sorry, but there’s nothing I can do.” Veronica Parker hung her head feebly.
Toby Cage looked at her coldly, his hands holding her wrist were trembling.
“That’s all I can say to you,” and then he shook her off and left.
Veronica Parker bowed her head, and there was a tingling pain on her wrist, as if it was not her physical pain, but from Toby Cage’s body.
But she didn’t regret it.
The two should have been strangers a long time ago.
Veronica Parker took a deep breath, looked up and turned, glanced around the corner and saw only a skirt slipping past.
“Who’s there?”
Veronica Parker walked over and saw only the waiter standing outside the door.
Without asking, Veronica Parker, who regained her appearance, returned to her room.
Tom Parker asked, “I’m about to send someone to look for you. Why are you staying so long? Are you feeling all right?”
Veronica Parker sat down in her seat. “It’s all right, I just made a phone call.” With that, she took out her mobile phone to do something.
“Veronica, eat your food, don’t just play, and then you’ll be hungry.” Tom Parker said.
“Okay,” she sighed. Veronica Parker responded weakly.
Tom Parker looked at her mobile phone and didn’t want to talk very much. He turned to Saxon Raglan and chatted, “I heard that there are new customers in the company. It’s a foreign trade company. Is it reliable?”
“At the beginning, I took a small part of the goods, and if there will be no problem later there won’t be a problem to develop into long-term cooperation. The previous cooperation company was good, but the price was high. I think, if the quality will be the same, why not choose the one with low price? And that company also does export, so there should be no problem”, Saxon Raglan said.
“What’s the name of the company?” Tom Parker paused for a moment and asked.
“Ocean Trading Company.”
“All right, I’ll check it later. So, it’s good not to stick with just one company all the time, it is better for us to have one more company to compete with.” Tom Parker said. “Yes.” “I’m talking about, Veronica Parker here. I’m not interested in playing with my cell phone at all. I’ll eat once in a while.”
Clare Parker looked at Veronica Parker, with a straight face and a lot of disdain in her eyes. She wanted to know what’s on Veronica Parker’s mind.
She was able to play with her cell phone so calmly, obviously she was messing around with that man before.
By the way, Veronica Parker called him ‘Toby Cage’, surname Cage, the capital surname Cage, sounds like a popular man. There is no one else except the Cage family, as far as she knows.
‘Even if I don’t know who that person was for the time being, anyone that can see, can tell that Veronica Parker had a strong relationship with that man.’
