Veronica CEO's Underworld Queen novel Chapter 111

　　"Sweetie, listen. I know that you have always liked President Sy but the thing is, throughout the years, the man didn't show any signs that for once, he had put you in his eyes. Julie, it's hard to accept. But you have to move on. Listen to mama. You have a brighter future ahead of you. You will find someone that suits you."

　　Julie Tan looked at her mama.

　　Disappointment hidden at the bottom of her heart. She didn't reply and simply bowed her head as clenched her fists without her mother knowing.

　　Elvira Wei thought that her daughter understood and took her words to heart.

　　After all, aside from her fondness for Rawlf, Julie has been an obedient and loving daughter. Elvira embraced her and lightly caressed her back.

　　She is a mother, and she knew that it's hard for a woman to know that the man they love is already engaged to another woman.

　　But Rawlf Sy is definitely not the kind of man her family and her husband could go against. "We'll go shopping today. Fix yourself! Okay?"

　　Julie Tan nodded in her head and Elvira Wei smiled.

　　"That's my girl! Go and wash! I'll also go downstairs to get ready." "Okay ma. I'll wash now."

　　Elvira nodded her head and left.

　　As soon as her mother left, Julie Tan stood up from the bed and took a picture frame from her drawer. Her eyes turned passionate and angry at the same time.

　　"You are mine."

　　In the frame is no other than Rawlf Sy.

　　Dragon Mansion.

　　"I know pa. Rawlf will come with me. He said that he wants to meet you." Veronica had been awakened by an early morning call from her parents.

　　Country R is twelve hours ahead of Country P. So it must be six in the evening there. She planned to call them today to inform them that she accepted Rawlf's proposal but who knows the news reached them already. It's probably Edward, another blabber mouth in the family.

　　"Vivi,are you really sure about this. It has only been a few months since you have met that man. I think it's much better for you to get to know him more.

　　"Pa, I get your point. Because rationally, if at the end, Rawlf turned out to be not the kind of man I expect him to be, it's not only me but also the kids who will be affected. That's why like I said, I'm bringing him with me once we return to Country R when we send the kids back. It's also for the rest of you to get to know him personally. Anyway, it is just an engagement. We are yet to set our wedding but that would still be far ahead since I've got to settle some things here first."

　　Eddie Wang is silent for a moment.

　　"Alright. As much as I want you to find a rather simple man, it couldn't be helped. You're old enough for us, your parents to decide for you. We can only give you our advice and guidance."

　　Veronica smiled gently. Indeed, her parents' parenting is different from the rest of the strict and traditional way of Country P. Maybe because her father was an orphan who strived and later became successful. And maybe because at the early stage of his life, his father didn't grow up with a family like others. Therefore, his kind of parenting was all about advice and guidance. It's also one of the reasons why he felt closer to Zero. He and her father have the same circumstances.

　　"I know pa. You have always trusted me."

　　Eddie Wang just "hmm" meaning, he chose to trust Veronica but is still yet to give his final thoughts when he personally meets that man.

　　"He is not a good man, Celerina. I know him. Although polite, I know him for how he is. I just hope that he will at least be good to our daughter and grandchildren."

　　Eddie Wang sighs, he's youthful face aged a little.

　　"Hon, I know. But both of us also knew and realized why throughout the years, he has been looking for us. Right that moment, we could assume that he must have been looking for Veronica. Give it time and let's try getting to know him better, not as he is known from your circle, but how he is privately, with our daughter and grandchildren."

　　Eddie Wang snorted, still hard but did not comment any further.

　　'Let's see then.' He thought.

　　Celerina could sigh deep inside. This husband of hers ah. Back in Country P. Dragon Mansion.

　　Rawlf had been listening beside Veronica as she talked to her parents through the phone.

　　'It seems like a long way to go before achieving the in-laws' acceptance.' He thought. Then he smirked. Eddie Wang is a simple and good man. Showing his sincerity towards Veronica and being filial to them like how a normal son in law would to his in-laws, would be enough to acquire their trust and acceptance.

　　Small things.

　　"What are you smirking so evilly there for?" He heard Veronica ask him. She already dropped the call.

　　"Love, nature?"

　　Veronica rolled her eyes back at him, this had become her habit every time Rawlf would say something she's at lost, of a comeback.

　　"Mama is okay with you but papa, well, still a long way for you to go." Rawlf whistled.
