Veronica CEO's Underworld Queen
Chapter 21

Veronica took long enough to respond which made Rawlf ask once again.

"Where do you think you're going?"

Rawlf's voice awoke her from her initial shock and she panicked but her few years in the underworld taught her how to maintain a facade.

True, her womanly nature may couldn't be helped and goes weak around Rawlf Sy but that doesn't necessarily mean that she, as an individual, can't discourse with him, head on, on a normal basis.

With the sexual tension subsided between them from a night of hot passion, she can think and talk rationally now. She's no Lady Cleopatra for no reason. The Lady Cleopatra who, creatures of the underworld coined as, 'The rising queen of the Underworld.'

"To move out so as not to make things awkward between us when you wake up which I

thought was supposed to be later this noon?" Veronica said in a nonchalant way, like she's stating the answer from a mathematical question of one plus one. Veronica decided to stay in his embrace as she believed he would release her right away.

Her years in the underworld and her Uncle Bien taught her many philosophical thoughts and of those is, "Choose your battles."

Why exert more effort trying to force her way off him when he would later anyway. Aside from that, she's no hypocrite not to enjoy him embracing her, in his conscious state.

"So you always love to consume and leave right after, huh?" Rawlf taunted, "How many men had you slept with and been casual about it right after?"

Veronica giggled. Why be mad when these taunting and angry words came from someone like Rawlf Sy. No, why was he even angry? Veronica shot down the hope that was about to sprout. "Oh, how many do you think? Wasn't this also a normal thing for someone like you Mr?" Veronica replied, pretending not to recognize him as she winked at his unreadable face.

Rawlf then released her after a moment which made her relieved and at the same time, empty and cold. She was once again about to sit up, keeping her disappointment within her when Rawlf once again embraced her. "You're attracted to me?" He paused to look at her face and continued, "I'm not assuming that you are but I don't think you aren't one to fuck around without feeling any attraction."

Veronica was confused as to where the conversation will lead to but decided to act casual yet deep inside, she's trembling with excitement and lust, yes right, lust. Him embracing her awoken her lust for him once again.

"Oh, you're looking too high for someone who would screw around with a wasted man she just met on the elevator." She replied and when another naughty thought flashed before her added, "although your performance last night was not someone a wasted man could ever come near to........ Or You're not wasted at all but you might have seen me somewhere and felt strong

attraction for me so you followed me until here and pretended to be wasted by the help of an accessory just so you could get near me." Veronica giggled at her great talent for weaving stories. Well, what could falsify her claim was with the fact that the man has his own suite in this hotel.

Rawlf smirked this time. Seems like years had improved his little enchantress' smart mouth. "And what if I am?" This time, Rawlf turned the teasing table for himself. Seeing this silence Veronica, Rawlf added another blow, "Well I have taken a liking to you, how about considering being my woman?" Rawlf this time added in a sexy tone.

Veronica was speechless but then tried her best to turn the table back to her side. "How about the other way? I've also taken a liking of you. How about becoming my man?" Veronica winked at him again.

Veronica's words silence Rawlf for some seconds then a mirth of amusement flashed in his eyes. Then returned to an evil glint. 'I'm a businessman and I do transactions fast if I see it's worth it. And you seemed worthy of my time. Be sure to handle me and everything that comes across having me as your man, Miss Wang." Rawlf said in a short and concise manner that blew Veronica's mind right away making her vulnerable to his sudden kisses to which she unknowingly yet willingly responded to. And the kisses yet turned into hungry and

passionate ones that only the union between the two of them could suffice.☐☐☐☐
