A Sweet Night The CEO Loves His Wife Ardently

lan shook the wine glass in his hand. The red wine swirled in the glass, leaving a bright red stain. Looking at the stain, lan smiled. "Mr. Cordova seems to be very clear about my purpose in coming here." Raymond leisurely leaned back in his chair, with his deep gaze carefully sizing up Veronica's sleeping face. His eyes were filled with affection.

Veronica could sleep soundly wherever she was.

"Before you came, I already knew your purpose, just as you know mine."

"How is it? Do you have any interest in cooperating with me, Mr. Cordova? I will offer you a price five percent higher than that you can get from the underworld."

Raymond was no longer patient. He walked to Veronica's side, took her up in his arms, and walked to the door of the private room. Before he left, he said, "I won't cooperate with you. Also... Stay away from my girlfriend."

Then he left without turning back.

Outside the hotel, Devin was already waiting there. Then, Raymond carried Veronica into the car, but when he was about to place her down, he suddenly threw her forcefully.

The sense of falling instantly woke Veronica up. She immediately got up. However, the roof of the car was not high enough. Before she could stand up, her head slammed into the top of the car, forcing her to fall back down. She covered the back of her head in pain and fell into the seat.

Raymond sat in the car expressionlessly. Just as he sat down, he coldly ordered, "I'll drive!"

Raymond started the car, while Veronica, who once again tried to stand up, fell heavily back to the seat. Only then did she realize where she was.

Rubbing the back of her head, Veronica remembered that she had just been thrown into the car by Raymond.

"What are you doing?" Veronica grimaced in pain. "Are you trying to kill me? It hurts!"

"You can feel the pain now?" Raymond said coldly, "Are you clear-minded now?"

"I have been sober all the time."

"If you're clear-minded, you wouldn't be with lan."

"What's wrong with me staying with him? He helped me. We are friends. Besides, the two of us didn't do anything shameful," Veronica retorted.

"If you had done something shameful with him, you wouldn't be only suffering from a headache!" Raymond glanced at her coldly.

Raymond's anger was inexplicable and mysterious to Veronica. And she had just been awakened from her sleep, so she was in a bad mood. Thus, Veronica turned her head away and did not speak to Raymond.

"Why aren't you talking?" Raymond's deep and questioning voice sounded.

"What am I supposed to say?"

"Tell me how did you know lan?"

"Why ask? Do you care about that?" Veronica did not answer but asked.

"Why do you think he tried to get close to you? Are you that stupid? First, it was Rodger. And now it is lan. When will you learn to be a little smarter?" Every word of Raymond revealed his fury as he shouted. Veronica widened her eyes.

Being scolded by Raymond, Veronica was annoyed. "You're right. I am stupid. I am not as smart as you. Are you satisfied now?"

"I am telling a matter of fact!" Raymond frowned and reminded her in a deep voice, "lan is not a good person. You're not allowed to see him again. Do you hear me?"

Veronica looked out the window grimly and did not reply to Raymond.

"Veronica!" Raymond's voice was even louder, and he insisted on getting an affirmative answer from Veronica. "Promise me that you won't see him again!"

However, Veronica ignored Raymond all the way. When they arrived at the villa, Veronica directly went upstairs, went to her bedroom, and closed the door.

Raymond followed her into the villa. Raymond was surrounded by complete darkness when he happened to hear the sound of the door being closed and locked on the second floor. He was more depressed and annoyed than ever.

He quietly went to the study.

The next morning, a piece of news occupied all the headlines in Peace City.

Last night, an explosion occurred in a warehouse in the suburbs, and the ruins of the warehouse were detected with countless military explosives, guns, and other things. However, the explosion scene was quickly blocked and no ordinary citizens were allowed to approach.

According to the news, it was just an explosion. However, an anonymous netizen commented below the news that the explosives found in the ruins were almost fully made. The ground was blown into a big pit. If the explosives had been made fully, the power would have been much greater.

After Veronica got up in the morning, she received a call from Stella. Only then did she know about the big explosion in a warehouse in Peace City, and she also heard about the anonymous comment.

"Did it cause a lot of casualties in this explosion?" Veronica's mind was blank. Generally, such an explosion would most probably injure ordinary people.

"What do you think? That warehouse

was burned to the ground and no one survived! Stella said with

lingering fear, "It rained net

night.

When I heard the explosion, I

thought it was thunder. Who could

know that? Fortunately, it rained and the rain put out the fire. Otherwise, I can't imagine how many more people would be involved.

"However, there are so many explosives found there, as well as munitions, military equipment, and other stuff. Could it be some secret military base?"

"How would I know? Only the government knows the answer." Veronica rolled her eyes.

"Well... This is also something we can't control. However, the owner of this warehouse and the mayor of Peace City are in trouble."

It was unknown whether this explosion was caused by someone or just an accident.

Then the two remained silent for quite a while.

As soon as Veronica stepped out of the room, she saw Raymond coming out of the other room. She wanted to ask Raymond if he knew anything about the explosion. But then she recalled that they were still in a fight. So, Veronica swallowed backwhat she wanted to say and went downstairs to brush her teeth and wash her face without looking at him.

While taking Veronica to school, Raymond didn't try to talk to her. He was not as angry as he was last night. Moreover, he had been holding his phone and looking at something. When they arrived at school, Veronica got out of the car just like last night and went straight to the school gate, parting ways with Raymond.

Raymond only looked at Veronica's back and did not speak. Then he drove to the company.

As soon as he returned to the company and sat down in the President's Office, his cell phone rang.

Raymond picked it up. "Hello."

Raymond heard a worried voice coming from the other end of the line. "Mr. Cordova."

"What's the matter?" Raymond leaned against the back of the chair, and his dark pupils were slightly narrowed.

"You've heard about the news about

the explosion, right? That warehouse that exploded belonged to the Black Snake Gang. Black Snake Gang caught a suspect who claimed to have received the order from you. The leader of the Black Snake Gang, Craig, vowed to take revenge on you. I have already sent my brothers to investigate who did it. You should be careful recently."

"I see."

Raymond was a bit surprised that they were so bold as to trick him.

After hanging up, Raymond dialed Veronica's number.

After a long while, Veronica picked it up.

"What are you doing?" Raymond asked with interest.
