Veronica CEO's Underworld Queen

Chapter 22

Veronica woke up with a heavy body later that day. When Rawlf had his share of passion earlier,

he finally let her go to sleep around four AM.

When Veronica checked her phone, it's already eleven AM and so far, she hasn't received a

message from Bael Force which means things could have been stabilized now. She decided to take a

bath and get ready to visit the Headquarter afterwards. She had been deciding to meet with her friends

in Country P. Only that she needs to be extra careful so as not to raise any suspicion from her family's

unknown enemies lurking in the shadows so as not to endanger not only her, but her friends as well.

Oh how much had she missed those people who were with her even all throughout the fall of her

family from grace. And that's one thing she's grateful about.

Floyd, Gedmaire and Pearl were lawyers now and are highly sought after in the Country. Yvette

who also took and finished law, ended up entering politics and is currently the Governor in C Province.

Rose ends up taking over her family's company and in fact, has been consistently growing through

the years. Paola lived a secluded life owning an IT Firm. And Martha turned up to be rather a vagabond

and had been traveling around the world now. In summary, her friends all end up pretty good in their

lives and in careers. While she, on the other hand, bore out her twins and is now an entity of the

underworld.

Something she never expected or dreamed of. Veronica used to dream about pursuing law after

her Bachelor's Degree but guess, life really threw her a good joke. She dreamed to be a bearer of

justice and here she is, someone who turned out to be a nemesis of the justice system instead. 'Oh

well'. Veronica sighed.

Veronica must admit that Country P looks peaceful on the surface and she for one understood

quite well it's because of Rawlf Sy's control. "Seems like Mr. Beast is good at playing Leviathan huh."

Veronica murmured.

But she, as another creature from the Underworld understood and was exposed to the dirty

laundry happening at the bottom of that peaceful surface. This flow of thoughts led her to realize Rawlf

Sy could have, of course, a connection with the Underworld. This made her fall from another series of

deep thoughts.

Sy International.

"President, these are the information we gathered from the growing force which I primarily thought

could have a relationship with the Lady Boss. But my assumption was proven wrong by those files as

the leader of the force stepped forward to talk to Dmitri's men last night.On page

twenty-three you will see the difference between the materials that the Spartan Force deals with

compared with it.

While the Spartans deal with almost anything in the underworld, the B Force only deals with

weaponry and gold, I also managed to find out that their gold reserves are enough to establish a

country." Secretary Ryan explained in length.

"Anything about it's relationship with Veronica?" Rawlf asked.

"Not at all, President. Maybe I over assumed things. It could have only been coincidental. After all,

even before the Lady Boss appeared for the first time, the force had been in the country for half a year

now."

"Hmm, that's factual reasoning. But what about your instinct Secretary Ryan?" Rawlf tested. "If I

am to be a truthful, President, I'd say that things are not as simple as they are."

Rawlf smirked. Right. Things are never that simple, much if involved anything related to the

Underworld.

It's not because he's doubting Veronica for anything. Rawlf honestly doesn't care if she's a

member of that small force or of any force in the underworld, after all, her sudden disappearance five

years ago and her sudden appearance without enough track to follow is already suspicious enough.

And he can't simply just ask her about it as he still was trying to establish a connection between

them. And he doesn't want to scare or make her wary of him.

Rawlf's primary reason for investigating things related and possibly connected to her was solely for

the purpose of understanding and learning more of it so he could truly protect her, this time around.

The thought of his little enchantress lightened his heavy mood. He couldn't wait to see her tonight.

He made sure to leave her with ten bodyguards to follow her around earlier so as to assure himself that

he won't lose her again. And so far, none of those bodyguards contacted him for anything wrong. His

little enchantress must have been an obedient kitty the whole day. Maybe he'll have to buy her a

diamond watch later as a gift.

After noting his plans to Secretary Ryan, Rawlf continued with his files waiting for a thorough

review.
