Veronica CEO's Underworld Queen novel Chapter 99

　　The unfortunate fate of two of City I's prominent figures is a wide-spread information to the elite society of City.

　　The reason behind it is also no secret among them. Therefore, with the news that the "ice queen" will attend with the rumored woman of President Rawlf Sy, everyone at the fundraiser event organized by the Li madam restrained themselves from talking about the Sy's in public.

　　Although almost everyone from time to time was looking at the entrance of the spacious hall.

　　Just as usual, the hall is still filled with chattering of the madams and ladies of the elite families pretentiously complimenting each other while the men group themselves among who is in business or to woo prospective business partners.

　　Suddenly the hall turned silent at the arrival of the ice queen.

　　Madame Vanessa Sy is still as youthful and elegant as ever and her cold features made her even more sophisticated.

　　Truly enough, a woman who originates from a powerful family, who married a powerful man albeit the infidelity, the ice queen and still, the irreplaceable madam Sy.

　　She walked in a gracious yet steady manner, with every gait demanding respect.

　　Everyone's faces are clothed with a welcoming smile, some are sincere and some are pretenses.

　　When their line of sight caught the red-haired woman who was slightly behind the madam Sy, their eyes were filled with confusion. Because the woman, no matter how many years passed, is familiar among them!

　　Who wouldn't know the daughter of the former esteemed Eduardo Wang? The previous vice governor of Province I who fell under grace because of a corruption case.

　　The so-called 'man of the masses' who ends up being hated by the masses?

　　Although what confused the people present at the said fundraiser event is the familiar yet unfamiliar sense the woman gave off. Look wise, the woman is similar to the famous Veronica Wang but aura wise, she seemed different. She's like a different person much with her red hair that seemed to be natural.

　　They saw that the madam Vanessa Sy stopped walking and it seemed to have waited for the said woman. This is probably showing that the said rumor is just a rumor. Here at the entrance of the hall, the ice queen Vanessa Sy is confirming the truth to everyone present that the said woman is her future daughter in law without using unnecessary words.

　　This action also serves as a warning for others who still have plans to mess up with the said woman.

　　"Vanessa!"

　　Everyone saw how the madam of the Li approached the newly arrived guests to welcome them warmly.

　　"I'm glad you came!" Madame Li said in a warm greeting like those of close friends. From the elite family in City I, madam Li is one of the few people who managed to be closely acquainted with the Sy Madame.

　　"You made me promise so how can I not?"

　　The Sy Madame replied, in her usual, signature tone. Flat.

　　But those who managed to get close to her knew that it's how she showed her care.

　　"You're always the best Vanessa." Li Madam replied happily. She turned her line of sight to the young, beautiful woman beside her friend and her eyes instantly sparkled.

　　"And this very beautiful woman beside you is Veronica." The Li madam didn't ask but rather directly stated it.

　　"Yes. My daughter in law, Veronica Wang." The Sy Madame also directly confirmed. Veronica bowed her head to greet the Li madam but the Li madam stepped aside,

　　"I am not worthy of your bow, Miss Wang. You are the future Sy Madame." "Please madam, you are an elder."

　　The Li madam laughed in such a way that could tell everyone who were able to hear it that she is fond of the woman beside the Sy Madame.

　　"You are fortunate to have Veronica as your daughter in law, Vanessa. She is no doubt a very filial one." The Li madam looked at the Sy madam then turned her head back to Veronica.

　　"Come on, just call me Auntie Eliz. That's short for Elizabeth. Ha ha ha ha! Come, come, the event has already started. Let me introduce you to the rest of your mother-in -law's close friends. Ha ha ha ha!"

　　Veronica turned to look at the Sy madam while her hand was gently pulled by the Li madam. To her surprise, despite the frail and dainty looking madam, she seemed strong while pulling her hand.

　　Seeing her daughter in law looking at her as if asking for her permission, Vanessa nodded and also followed her always jovial and talkative friend Elizabeth.
