Veronica CEO's Underworld Queen
Chapter 89

Bale Force Headquarters

"As of the moment, we are in the process of finalizing the names of the corporate lawyers that we believe are fit for the standard you suggested, lady."

"Hmm, good. Send me the list afterwards so I can go over them. Additionally, include some notes of the rationale as to why you chose them over others. After I review them, you can go and sign the contract, of course you being the director."

Veronica crossed her legs and looked at the man in front of her.

Since everything is smooth sailing with Baelforce, she decided to at least borrow a man from the force as per Zero recommendation that will serve as the dummy director and owner of her Multinational Corporate Law Firm.

The man bowed his head. "As per your direction, lady, this subordinate will fulfill them."

"Good. But always remember, keep your poised regal and whenever we're around other people, you already know the drill, Director Guan."

Veronica smiled slyly and slowly tapped her fingers on the table at the same time, her phone rings.

Seeing her man's name appearing on the screen, with a soft smile she answered it. "Hello, how are the cubs?"

"I miss you too." Rawlf's replied in playful voice,

"They're doing their own things, as of the moment. Baelfire keeping Secretary Ryan busy that I think I need to replace a temporary secretary while our cubs are here with us in the country. On the other hand, our princess has once again turned into a princess hamster."

Rawlf then chuckled after having caught himself saying such things.

Veronica signaled Director Guan's dismissal to which made the later move and walked out of the office and return to his own and, despite of the stoic expression, deep inside him, curious of the man who was able to make their fearsome Lady Cleopatra of the underworld smile like what she did earlier.

Realizing that he still got a lot of things to work on with, Director Guan shrugged off his shoulders and continued.

"So what are you and the cubs having for lunch?"

"That's why I called you. I asked them and both answered anything healthy and delicious is fine. I don't know. Cauliflower is delicious and healthy for me. Should I feed them that for lunch?" Rawlf replied in a serious voice although his real expression now was handsomely playful.

Veronica face-palmed yet chuckled. "Alright, I'll bring lunch over. Wait for me."

"That's perfect. We're waiting for the lunch. Come quick love", Rawlf didn't hide how elated he was.

"Mom is coming over, cubs!"

Veronica could only smile hearing the cheerful voice from their daughter.

"Okay, President Sy. Please tell young master Fire not to make it very hard with Secretary Ryan, or else, his father will lose a good and loyal secretary", Veronica giggled and dropped the call to buy her family their lunch.

"Aahh! Young miss Baelfair is really really cute! I can't!! I just want to hug her so tight!" Assistant Secretary 1 said in dreamy eyes propping her left hand to her chin as the left one holding her chopsticks. Assistant Secretary 2 could only giggle and continue eating but she herself couldn't deny the fact that she wanted to crush the twins with her embrace.

Although on her side, the young master Baelfire who has obviously inherited the President's aloof and distant character was the one she replaces most irresistible. Both assistant secretaries continued eating so as to let their other colleague eat their lunch when they replace them later as well.

"Speaking of which, I wonder why the future Sy Madame hasn't come with the young master and young miss", Assistant Secretary 1 said.

But before Assistant Secretary 2 replied in agreement, her phone beep.

She swallowed her food first before checking it. After reading the message, her eyes widely opened. She turned her head over Secretary 1.

"Got a message from the receptionist. The future Sy Madame arrived!! Let's go check!!" She hurriedly moves out of her seat leaving her unfinished food and Secretary 1 behind who herself is struggling to follow excitedly.

Earlier.

Veronica just got off from the taxi in front of Sy International building holding two paper bags with six containers of foods she selected for her family's lunch when she was straight away greeted by a younger woman.

"Hello Madame. I am assistant secretary Li. Let me help you with your those bags." Veronica nodded her head and offered the assistant secretary the second paper bag. "I'll carry both, madame." "It's not heavy. One for each of us is fine."

Veronica then strutted to walk ahead. Of course, with her proud background, she's not even intimidated by the well-dressed woman in front of her. Despite not wearing a respectable suit, her peach and sleek flowing dress hugging her curves in the right places made her elegant and glamorous.

Assistant Secretary Li could only walk fast to catch up with the future madame who left her with a good impression after the short encounter.

Obviously the future madam is a proud woman, but for Assistant Secretary Li, a proud woman who doesn't pretend to be one because she is indeed a strong, confident woman that made her look up to her in admiration.

True enough, empowered women empowers women.[]
