Veronica CEO's Underworld Queen
Chapter 71

After carefully settling their cubs in their room, which the couple both wanted to as their being parents outweighs them, being a couple, Veronica and Rawlf went downstairs to have their dinner. Veronica didn't worry about the cubs not having their dinner since back in their father's office, the cubs were munching foods their father would offer for them.

From biscuits to chocolate- (which Veronica made sure to be moderate) and fruits- (which Veronica won by insistence) dipped in chocolate- (which Baelfair won to compromise her snack).

Actually, it's more on like Baelfair doing all the munching this, there and that which actually reminded Veronica, Rawlf, and Edward of a hamster chipping on its nuts while Baelfire was having his fruits in a gentleman like mature manner.

Rawlf who was yet not aware of his daughter's appetite was even surprised to replace out that her biscuit-full plate was empty after just some minutes.

Veronica also made the twins both drink their milk after observing that the cubs were almost lulling to sleep.

Despite her inexperienced and busy schedule while the twins were growing up, Veronica had always made it her priority to be a hands-on mother for her twins.

This doting, motherly acts from his woman towards their cubs made Rawlf fell for Veronica even more deeper that made him think there is no way will a time comes that he'll unlove the woman. She's amazingly beautiful, as a woman and as a mother.

"We should go to the mall tomorrow to buy our cubs their needs", Rawlf softly said while walking their way out the room, his left arms around Veronica's waist.

"That's a good idea but this might endanger the cubs. You know, it's common knowledge that you're the wealthiest businessman here in Country P", Veronica replied, trying to hide her real reason. "And the most powerful", Rawlf looked over her with a determined expression assuring her not to worry.

"If you were thinking about those people behind your accident and your family's destruction, I'm already at it. And don't worry, I will install my most skillful men to guard our cubs discreetly while they're here. Their main priority would be you and the cubs."

Veronica halted which made Rawlf stop as well. She looked at him once again in his eyes.

"There are things I am not yet ready to tell you but one of these days, I would be. But please, heed my request, make your men's priority to be the cubs only. I know I am being overly acting but I just couldn't take it in me to take any chances, careless chances which can endanger

them."

Rawlf was about to refute but Veronica beat him to it.

"Love, I can protect myself. I can assure you that. Make the cubs our priority."

This time, it is Rawlf who looked over Veronica with the same passion in his eyes. Although he's very joyful of the endearment Veronica used on him a while ago, her request is just too impossible for him to heed.

She and their cubs were now the most important people in his life and he doubted that he would still be sane if any danger befall any one of them.

It's true indeed that having people as a weakness will be the unbecoming of even the strongest and most powerful of men but the thought of having people to protect makes the strongest and most powerful of men strive to become more just to secure the safety and welfare of those one treasure the most.

And that's what made Rawlf determined to achieve more, something bigger a normal man wouldn't dare dream.

Indeed, he is the most powerful man in Country P but that doesn't give him the assurance. No matter how formidable and powerful his force to reckon with, but the thought of his family made him persevere to achieve the greater new heights.

"You and our cubs are equally important to me. I could simply fake it and say yes to you but work behind your back but Veronica, that's not me. I have always wanted to be honest with you. I can't. I just couldn't. Even just the thought of prioritizing either your or our cubs more than the

other is repulsive to me. I can't do ..-"

Rawlf wasn't able to finish his words as Veronica suddenly embracing him on his waist took him aback. He sighed and gently caressed her hair while kissing the top in the process. The couple stayed like that for another minute before Veronica broke the silence.

"I understand. Thank you for everything you've done and for everything in the future. Do whatever makes you feel at peace and comforted."

Veronica knew what Rawlf felt.

It's exactly how she feels for their cubs. If in her case, just the mere thought of prioritizing either one of the twins, Veronica shiverred involuntarily.

There shouldn't be who to prioritize first. It should be, trust each other and strive to become stronger.

That gave Veronica another push to strengthen Bael Force in Country P.

"Hello lovers, I'm hungry now. Modesty aside, I'll go eat first!" Edward's nagging voice from downstairs made the couple's mouth twitch for the couldn't-be-counted times.

"Go ahead. We'll be there in a minute", this time, it is Rawlf, to the surprise of those employees in the mansion who were able to hear, that made the friendly reply to the young man. 'Future young mistress changed the young master, in a very good way.' Was the thought of everyone and in themselves, promised to be devoted to the young mistress. Step aside future, it's a young mistress now. The possibility of Veronica being the next Sy Madame has reached a hundred percent.

Now the question among the servants was, what is the identity of the children being brought earlier?!

Were they the young mistress's children on her first partner?!

Who are they?!

'Are they adopted by the young master and young mistress?'

Since both twins were sleeping from Rawlf and Edward and later, Veronica's shoulder when they arrived earlier, the servants weren't able to see their faces. Tomorrow morning, when the twins wake up and wreak havoc (of cuteness) in the mansion,

the confusion and curiosity of all the servants will all clear up.☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐
