Chapter 291 The Man Behind Veronica
Chapter 291 The Man Behind Veronica
Day Thirty-Three…
~~*****~~
[ At Syphiruz Mafia's Medical Facility… ]
Veronica created a mess in her office as early this morning. She had never imagined that coming to Stephen's place last night would ruin her mood. This happened because of Abigail's warning.
At that moment, she had the urge to slap and pull Abigail's hair. But Abigail was stronger than her. Nathan wouldn't want her to create another scene. After her conversation with Abigail, Veronica marched out of the house and headed to a club.
She stayed in the club, drinking while venting out her anger and frustration. When she got drunk, she contacted her most loyal servant, bringing her back to the Medical Facility. She ended up falling asleep inside her office.
The moment she woke up, she threw all her things on the floor as she reminisced how Abigail dominated her last night. She felt humiliated as she wasn't able to fight back. And the thing that made her explode further was the last words she heard from Abigail.
[ "Nathan and I already kissed several times… He is a great kisser. So I made up my mind… Nathan will be mine. Not Yours!" ]
[ "I have seen him naked… and I already touched him… his most precious thing…" ]
Those words made her enraged. Abigail succeeded in provoking her. With her rage, she couldn't afford to stay there, otherwise, she would make another scene. As much as possible, she didn't want to anger or disappoint Nathan. In the end, she chose to leave the house without saying goodbye to Nathan and others.
Veronica went to her bathroom to wash and cool her head down. She also had a hangover and her head was throbbing. Veronica gasped as soon as she saw her face in the mirror. Part of her cheek was swollen. She got some bruises. Her eyes set ablaze as she recalled that her face hit the wall when Abigail pushed her.
"Fuck that Bitch!" Veronica had lost count of how many times she cursed Abigail since last night.
Leaving with no choice, Veronica picked up her phone and called someone. It was the same guy whom she contacted to hire a man who would deal with Abigail in Country F.
"This unreliable and useless guy! He told me that I wouldn't be implicated even if the culprit would be caught. But how come Abigail knew that I am the real mastermind?" Veronica lamented as she waited for the man to answer her call.
After a few rings, the call finally got connected.
"Marco! Where the hell are you?!" Veronica didn't let the man greet her first. She immediately asked about his whereabouts.
"I'm at home. Why? Do you miss me, My Lady?" Marco ignored Veronica's grumpy mood. He even teased her over the phone. He was already used to her rude attitude. For him, she looked hotter and sexier when angry.
"Shut up! I'm not in the mood for some jokes. Just tell me where are you? You have so many houses!" Veronica complained.
"You know where to find me, Babe. In our secret love nest… Come here and you can find me. I will be waiting for you," Marco spoke sensually on the other line, pissing Veronica off further.
"Damn you!" Veronica cursed under her breath and hang up.
Without further ado, she took a quick shower and changed her clothes. Before leaving the facility, Veronica drank medicine for her hangover and headed to where Marco was staying. It was a Condo Unit near the SYP Twilight Corporation Main Building.
When she reached his place, she rang the doorbell several times. After a few seconds, a half-naked man opened the door for her. It looked like he had just come out of the bathroom.
"So impatient as always my dear," Marco said, extending his hand to caress her face. But Veronica hit his hand even before he could touch her.
"Move away!" Veronica ordered him.
Marco just let out a husky laugh before stepping to the side, inviting her in.
Bam!
Slap!
As soon as the door was closed behind them, a smacking sound was heard as Veronica slapped Marco in the face. Marco stood frozen in his spot. He faced Veronica with a questioning look on his face. He rubbed the cheek that was slapped by his beautiful guest.
"Explain to me… why do I deserve that slap?" Marco frowned and pursed his lips, trying to be patient with her. He wanted to give her a chance to explain and justify her action. He was a gentleman after all. Well, only a gentleman in front of this woman.
"You lied to me! You told me that no one would know that I was involved in the incident at Country F! How come that crazy bitch found out that I was the real mastermind?!"
Marco was taken aback for a moment. Even Nathan didn't find out about it. How would a mere actress learn the truth?
"Are you sure about it?" he asked her in puzzlement.
"Yes! She knew it! She confronted me… but she made a deal with me. She told me that she would keep her silence." Veronica kept pacing back and forth across his room. She was still anxious.
"Calm down. She might be bluffing. I think that woman is playing a mind game with you," Marco said, trying to comfort Veronica. He could tell that she was nervous.
"How can I calm down?! I think she knew something about me and Monica! She told me that my sister shared so many secrets with her! Do you think… she knows what we've done to Monica?!"
Marco closed their gaps and held her shoulders thus stopping her from walking back and forth.
"Look at me, Veronica! You have to pull yourself together! If she knew something then she should have told Nathan about it! Besides, Nathan was still focused on Phantomflake. Just remember… everyone knows that it was Phantomflake who killed Monica. We had nothing to do with that. Keep that in your mind and just relax."
When she heard those words, Veronica pounced on him, wrapping her arms around Marco's body. "I want you to do something for me, Marco. Kill that woman. Kill that bitch for me."
A gleam flashed through his eyes when he heard that. He could feel her desperation. This was the second time Veronica asked him to do something personally.
"Nica… You know that I'm already a retired assassin. I don't kill people anymore," Marco mumbled.
"I can pay you… just name the price!" Veronica insisted on it.
"But I don't need your money… What I want is… YOU… just like how you paid me after giving me a special mission." Marco whispered, nudging his nose on the nook of her neck, smelling her scent.
Veronica closed her eyes and bobbed her head. "Fine! Let's do it. Just promise me that you will eliminate that woman, getting her out of my life!"
Getting her approval, Marco smirked triumphantly, his eyes burning with lust. Marco immediately pushed her into the closed door then they kissed. He captured her lips in a savage manner as if he had missed her for so long.
Marco started wrenching at the top buttons of Veronica's shirt to get into her bra… to her breast. Veronica moaned in between their kisses as Marco continued to touch and fondle her breast and bottom.
He grabbed on her right breast and pulled it out of her bra. Veronica didn't mind it at all. She just imagined that Nathan was the one doing this to her. Meanwhile, Marco, who was dying to touch and have sex with her once more, began to kiss and bite her breast quite savagely.
Veronica's back was leaning against the wall and Marco was trapping her. He became more forceful, pulling her clothes off. He tugged at her skirt until it rode over her butt and up around her waist. He quickly ripped her underwear as he continued biting her nipple, sucking it hard.
"Ahh… Ooh," Veronica moaned loudly when Marco put his two fingers inside her… his middle and index fingers thrusting in and out of her.
Not able to control his eagerness and desire, Marco lifted her up against the door, letting his towel fall into the floor. Then he shoved his cock inside her and kept going. He pounded on her over and over again, thrusting deeper… faster, and harder.
"Aaah… Oh Yeahh! Harder… go harder… Nate."
Marco stopped the moment he heard Nathan's name.
