The Billionaire Mafia
You Have to Be Responsible!
The atmosphere at the dinner table was awkward and gripping for Veronica because only she and Darren did not exchange stories. He had indeed invited Darren to lunch together but only alone, unlike today who are involved in lunch without a plan.
Ck, I have to keep my image in front of the others. Where might I tease Mr. Darren in front of them.
Veronica unknowingly crumpled the spoon she held. Since then, his lips have been unable to speak. Moreover, he was eager to ask about the departure of the man to Japan for one week, to be honest he was so curious. It doesn't hurt to ask, but it's not possible. Because it cannot wart if it is between the two poles around it. If it was just Darren, he could still handle it, but not for Mr. Mikel and Mr. Arthur. Both men already had their handlers.
"Vero, why don't you eat the food? It's not like you usually ignore food." Elie who accidentally noticed Veronica, nudged her friend's elbow. He knew full well if Veronica's appetite was so great, especially since the morning his friend said if he did not have time for breakfast.
Veronica's head turned to Elie, then she just put on a horse smile. "I feel like my stomach is full. You see, I just finished one plate of food."
Elie chuckled, she saw the other plate that had been empty was devoured by Veronica. "Unusually you're like this. Usually you'll just stop if you've finished five or six dishes. Aaw...." Suddenly, Elie complained when her feet seemed to be stepped on something.
"What's up, Sweetheart?" Mike suddenly panicked, the man even let go of his fork just like that. Even with Arthur and Helena who were no less anxious to look at Elie.
"It's okay. My legs only cramp a little, "he liar. The tail of his eyes glanced towards Veronica, surely his friend had purposely stomped his feet.
Mike rubbed his wife's head with a pity. "On arrival at the Mansion I'll massage your legs."
Elie just nodded her beloved husband's words with the tail of the eye that continues to lead to Veronica.
The one in the face was just indifferent and pretending to continue eating. "It's your fault why you want to embarrass me in front of Mr. Darren." Veronica said it in her heart. It's not yet time for Elie to know the feelings she has for Darren. Surely he must have a good image in front of the refrigerator.
Veronica smiled alone, she did not even realize that the man who kept filling her head was staring at her. As soon as he looked up, he almost choked then immediately turned his gaze in the other direction.
God, did he look at me like that? If that's true, please whoever holds my hand so that I don't drift.
Both of Darren's eyebrows frowned deeply. He was so astonished to see Veronica who was smiling alone since. "What's wrong with her?" his inner.
"Huumph...." Helena's voice that resounded withstanding the turmoil in her stomach seized Arthur's attention. The woman was seen covering her mouth with her palm.
"What's up, Love?" Arthur ended the meal. He was more worried about his wife instead of her stomach.
"Once again, I suddenly felt nauseous again," said Helena withstanding the turmoil in her stomach that she felt again.
"Again?" great-grandson Elie interrupted. "Are you sick, Helen?" tanyanya.
"So this morning Helen was like this. But after resting for a while he already felt better," Arthur said. Previously he had wanted to postpone their lunch, but Helena still insisted because she missed lunch with Elie and the others.
"Then you better just go home," said Mike suggesting that immediately be taken head by Elie sign agree. After all they could see Helena's face that suddenly paled.
"Hm..." Arthur nodded. They should just go home. "We'll just go home, Love. I'll call the doctor to the Mansion" he said gently to Helena. He really could not bear to see the pale face of the wife.
Helena who felt her body squeezing could only nod. Though before he felt fine and so greedy to eat his food. But somehow just a few bribes he felt nauseous.
Mike, Elie, Veronica and Darren continue eating. An hour later, they came out of the restaurant.
"Vero, you're coming with me. Mike and I will take you to the apartment." Elie stopped her steps and looked at Veronica.
"No need for Elie. I can take a taxi. Anyway our direction is opposite." Veronica was feeling uneasy, because she did not want to bother Elie and Mike. It was enough to buy lunch at a luxurious and expensive restaurant.
"No problem, Mike won't mind either." Elie catches her husband until Mike nods his head in response.
"No! Anyway I don't go straight to the apartment, I still have to go to the supermarket first."
Elie looked doubtful. "But are you sure it's okay if I don't accompany you?" And he asked to make sure. Usually if to the supermarket, Veronica asked herself to accompany.
"It's okay, I can do it myself. I'm an adult, Elie. Why do you worry about a child?" Veronica said while chuckling, until Elie also chuckled.
"Alright then, you have to be careful. Let me know when I get to the apartment." Elie's words were like an older brother worrying about his sister. And Veronica is used to it.
"OKs. It's there, go. Poor Mr. Mike is waiting too long for you." Veronica's eye glances moved to the figure of her best friend's husband who was already standing on the side of the car.
Elie nodded and immediately stepped closer to her waiting husband. He got into the car as soon as Mike opened the car door for him.
Veronica looked at their car which was slowly moving away from the reach of her eyes.
"God...." And he gasped as soon as he turned his body to the existence of Darren who was standing right in front of him. Earlier, he noticed that the man was still talking on the phone. "You surprised me. What if I have a heart attack" he lamented, wiping his chest.
"But Miss is fine." Darren's flat gaze looked at Veronica who looked fine. That woman alone is so excessive.
"Are you a doctor?" veronica asked with a throbbing lip forward. "Who knows I have an unknown internal disease."
"Then what does this have to do with me, miss?" sahut Darren.
"Of course it has something to do with it. You have to take responsibility!" Veronica's eyes widened as if she was bullying the cold man.
Darren's eyebrows shot up one moment when he heard Veronica's words. "Acconsible for what?" And he felt that he had done nothing wrong to the woman before him.
"I'm responsible for making me fall in love with you." He wanted to say that, but Veronica only dared to speak in her heart.
