Bob was told to hurry over.
“Do you have ketchup?”
The phone has been quiet since Veronica Parker sent a message.
“This is to take your own advice to find someone to take care of your wound! Do you need any advice? Isn’t it conceivable in the first place?”
Oh, it’s also possible that, Nick Cage told her in the form of notice while she was being bandaged.
It’s supposed to be like this.
Ding, the text message came again.
It’s still from Nick Cage.
Veronica Parker’s open mouth froze before he could take a bite of the fried chicken. She was shocked after she looked at the picture that was sent to her.
There is blood all over the ground! A big one! How could it be so serious?
Is this an open wound? This is killing a man!
Without thinking, Veronica Parker picked up her shoulder bag next to her and rushed out the door.
What’s wrong with Nick? You are not taking care of his wound? Why is there so much blood?
There is a bit of traffic jam at the moment, Veronica looked at the time from time to time and walked for half a day for only a few minutes.
When can I get to Winter Villa??
Veronica Parker is leaning against the window and holding the forehead. Why am I in such a hurry? Does Nick Cage need to be so attentive to the safety of her life?
Did he forgot when he was horrified?
“Miss Parker, if you’re in a hurry, you might as well go the other way. I don’t think, Mr. Cage will mind. ” The driver said.
“What? You mean the main road on the East side? But what does it have to do with Nick Cage? ” Veronica Parker was confused by what the driver said.
“Don’t you know? That road belongs to the KING Group. Mr. Cage bought the exclusive rights. I didn’t know it at first, but then I had to go that way and I didn’t know until I didn’t let it go. ”
Veronica Parker was dumbfounded.
Nick Cage bought a whole main road? No wonder there’s no any car on the road. This is so shocking!
Oh, in the future, if anyone says, “this road is opened by your family!” Presumably only Nick Cage is qualified to answer!
It is owned by his family!
The car entered the Winter Villa, Veronica Parker ran to the hall as soon as she got out of the car.
When I saw the black figure sitting on the sofa, I put on a brake and stared at Nick Cage’s eyes.
Veronica Parker stopped, walked forward, and her eyes fell on Nick Cage’s bandaged hands and her brain was a little confused, is he all right?
“what are you doing here?” Nick Cage asked faintly.
Without asking, he asked Veronica Parker about the corner of his mouth and said, “if you sent me a picture like that, it’s impossible for me not to come.”
She didn’t see a lot of blood. It’s cleaned up, isn’t it?
“Are you worried about me, or are you scared?” Nick Cage’s voice was low and her black eyes were deep.
Veronica Parker was dazed by his question. What should Veronica said? That she is worried about him? Indeed, he’s the one who sent that picture.
Say you’re not worried? She doesn’t seem to have the guts!
“It’s normal to worry. Do you have to ask? You have so much blood!” Veronica Parker conceals her lack of strength with righteousness. “Besides, ‘frightening’ is much more serious than ‘worrying’! Isn’t it?”
Nick Cage oppressed the aura without saying a word, as if she was considering whether her answer would satisfy her.
“Are you sure you’re all right?” Veronica Parker wing asked carefully, “so much blood, did you call President Dora?” If not Is your hand disabled?”
“It’s not a problem to catch you to bed. Would you like to try it?” There was danger in Nick Cage’s low, hoarse voice.
“Don’t you dare!” Veronica Parker warned as she stepped back, trying to put more distance between them as much as possible. She didn’t know whether the blood was really true or not, but she was sure that Nick Cage will do everything within his power to win this argument over! “But how did you get so much blood from your hands? What did you do?”
“I took care of some heavy things.”
How heavy could he have lifted to have shed so much blood? But who would bleed just from lifting something heavy? Veronica Parker was skeptical, but there was no evidence to disprove her doubts, and the picture he sent seemed to be real blood. There was no way she could know the distinction of real blood over a simple picture.
Veronica Parker looked upstairs and said, “Oh, since you seem to be perfectly fine, I’ll go and check on the six little ones.” With that, she turned and went for the stairs.
Nick Cage’s eyes followed her walking figure pass by and it was enough to set him in a good mood.
On the king-sized bed in the room, the six little ones were already asleep, and their round bellies were covered with a towel blanket.
As soon as Veronica Parker saw the six lovely little ones, the woman’s heart beat erratically, and she stifled a cry, making her breathless and lightheaded. Nevertheless, what she felt didn’t stop the gold stars from twinkling in her eyes.
Then there was a knock at the door.
The door swung open and revealed Bob’s waiting figure outside. “Miss Parker, Mr. Cage wished for you to join him for dinner.” He curtly said.
“He hasn’t eaten yet?” Veronica Parker was surprised.
“Mr. Cage was busy and hasn’t had the time to eat yet.” Bob smiled.
Veronica Parker thought, what a coincidence, she came by in a rush even when she was in the middle of taking a bite on her fried chicken!
“All right, I’ll be right behind you.”
“Yes, miss.” Bob turned and left.
Veronica Parker didn’t fret so much over a small coincidence.
After all, it’s not like Nick Cage would go so far as to having a spare time just to monitor her, right? But questions kept bugging her. How did he know if she already ate or not? Did it somehow have anything to do with the monitor she saw a while ago?
Veronica Parker just shrugged off that thought and instead focused on the six little ones that were sleeping peacefully, and she couldn’t help but notice how they looked so cute. Oh, how she loved every bit of them unconditionally!
‘Ah, if I dare to stall here any longer, someone downstairs who hasn’t eaten yet might get really impatient not to mention the extent of how he hates waiting!’
When she entered the dining area, the table was neatly laid out with luscious dishes.
Nick Cage was already frantically waiting at their table with the cutleries still untouched. His one hand was placed on the table with his forefinger agitatedly tapping the tabletop, as if every tap was a tick off of a time bomb.
Veronica Parker hurriedly sat down, and the delicious foods made her already famished stomach even more hungry!
She raised her gaze and found their way into the mysterious eyes of Nick Cage.
What was this tension Veronica Parker’s feeling in her heart? ‘Does he no longer want to eat with me anymore? Why is he staring at me like that?’ In her defense, whenever she came home so late, that would mean she wouldn’t need to argue with the children.
It was true that Nick Cage was easily upset, but it was also obvious that he was holding up all his rage within him just so he wouldn’t ruin the mood.
“Don’t you want to eat? If so, then I’ll eat.” Instead of being polite to him, Veronica Parker picked up her chopsticks and began to feast on the dishes.
Nick Cage looked back and began to eat too.
Standing at the door of the dining area was Bob who was looking at them, and he saw Mr. Cage stuffing his mouth twice at a time as if he was in a hurry!
“Why don’t you stop thinking about it?” Nick Cage said. “Let’s just say she already ate. So, what? I just want Miss Parker to eat good food, a proper meal at the least. Is it asking for too much?”
Anyway, Bob told him he couldn’t figure him out.
“Are you going back tonight?” Nick Cage suddenly attempted a conversation.
Veronica Parker, who was chewing delicious and juicy beef in her mouth, was taken back by his sudden interrogation, narrowed her eyes at the quiet Nick Cage, and thought, ‘How would I know if this is a trick question or not?’
“Well, yes.” Veronica Parker nodded. “I don’t see any reason to stay at your place for the night.”
“If you go back, I’ll break your leg!” Nick Cage had a sharp look in his eyes.
Veronica Parker was exasperated at his sudden outburst. “Can you get any crueler?” She swallowed the last mouthful of beef and tapped her taut belly, not minding his remark anymore. “I’ll go for a walk. Ah, I ate too much! Don’t worry and take your time.”
With that, she turned around and went out.
Veronica Parker went around to the plane and saw that the snow-white fuselage was already painted with a lot of masterpieces by the six little ones. One can notice the children’s innocence and how they really had fun just by looking at their very own arts.
Almost all can instantly figure out the adorable looks of the six little ones while playing happily here.
Her cell phone suddenly rang.
Who could it be, calling her at such an hour? She didn’t think it’s Tom Parker. If she couldn’t go back, Tom Parker would ask the driver.
She took out her cell phone and saw that the incoming call was from an unknown number.
