Veronica CEO's Underworld Queen novel Chapter 112

  Around lunch time, coincidentally both the Sy Madam and old master Sy arrived in Dragon Mansion.

  The Sy Madam had called in advance that she would be coming over. Regarding the old master Sy, his arrival was unexpected.

  Despite the slight awkwardness in the atmosphere, since both the old people's intention was to visit their grandchildren, the Sy Madame treated the old master Sy civilly, for the meantime.

  "Gwampah, weh (where) did you buy this chips?)" Baelfair asked her grandfather while munching the banana chips he gave them.

  "Why, do you like it princess?" The old master Sy gushed over his adorable granddaughter, his eyes brightened.

  "Yes, I wike (like) it!" The little girl replied, and continued munching.

  "Oh, since princess like it, don't ask anymore. Grandpa will surely have these chips delivered to you every week so you and your brother will have your weekly stock!" The old master Sy then laughs.

  Veronica could only twitch her mouth. She will talk to the twins, especially her glutton little daughter later about her uncontrollable bad eating habits.

  She heard Fair clapped her hands in glee then once again continued munching. "You can give all the chips to Fair grandpa, I'm not really fond of eating those."

  Veronica was relieved. Finally, at least her son is smarter. But her face changed when she heard her son's next words,

  "Instead, I prefer these potato chips. It tastes good and healthy."

  'What does healthy taste like?!' Veronica thought and turned to Rawlf who was also sitting in the corner. Rawlf at the same time turned to her and when their eyes met, there was a clear understanding between them. 'Our cubs have bad eating habits.'

  Finally, Veronica couldn't resist anymore and spoke strictly,

  "Fire, Fair, lunch will soon be prepared. Stop eating those chips and drink water."

  Both the twins were about to pop each of their chips in their mouth but stopped midway because of their mother's voice.

  Seeing this, Veronica had to stop herself from laughing at their comical expressions. "That would be the last chip. Eat that then drink water."

  The twins both did so and after chewing the last chip, drank from the water a maid handed to each of them.

  "Veronica dear, would you like me to find nannies for Fire and Fair so it'll be easier for you and Rawlf?" The Sy Madam finally speaks. She had been sitting all along, watching how her old husband spoiled their grandchildren with cheap foods.

  In order not to make the situation hard for both of them and also not create trouble in front of their grandchildren, the Sy Madame decided to sit for a while and watch on the side.

  After all, she had been spending time with her adorable grandchildren for the past few weeks. She would lose nothing but to be generous this time.

  Anyway she had been generous all along, like how she had been generous to let that husband of hers to his mistress and not fight for his attention.

  "It's okay mom. Oh by the way, I haven't told you about this yet but Rawlf and I were planning to return to Country R next week to send the kids back."

  "Send the kids back? What do you mean?" The Sy Madam asked in shock.

  Seeing that the situation would need them elders to talk privately, Rawlf decided to butt in, "We will talk this over after lunch mom."

  The Sy Madam nodded her head, understanding that the kids were just nearby. The issue can wait.

  After their lunch, Veronica first made sure that the twins were well taken care of before following the two old people and Rawlf in the study.

  Both the Sy Madame and old master Sy were clothed with a solemn expression in their face when she entered the study.

  Rawlf must have told them already.

  "Mom, Dad, I know that the twins have grown closer with you but we need to send them back to Country R. We need to think about their safety first." She heard Rawlf continue.

  When the three people saw her coming, Rawlf urged him to sit beside him. After settling down beside the man, she looked at both people in front of her,

  "Mom, Uncle,"

  "You call Vanessa, mom and you call me uncle? Call me Dad as well." The old master Sy cut her momentum.

  Veronica sees the smug expression in the face of the Sy Madam.

  "Okay Dad, as I said, it will be for the time being. Once we settle something here and are sure that the twins are safe to live here, eventually, the twins will return back here for good.

  "Both of you kept on saying 'to settle something'? But what is it? You could always ask for help if it's something dangerous. Or maybe both of you were now criticizing my capability just because I've been out of business for a long time?"

  "No Dad."

  "That's not it Dad." The couple both said at the same time. Veronica nudged Rawlf to continue.

  "We can't reveal it for now. It's Veronica's personal matter and I could only respect her decision for the meantime. But don't worry dad, I'll call for you when I need your help next time."

  "If it's regarding what happened that year, with your father, I could help with. But if it concerns other matters, then I could be patient for the meantime. But we're talking about my grandchildren here. I don't want to miss them for so long. Especially that I just only came to know and met them. Haven't even played with them enough yet."

  If the voice would only be paired by expression, Veronica could only picture out the old master Sy pouting right now.

  "Yes Dad. Don't worry, dad. We'll get them back here soon as well."

  "Then I'll come with you." Not only Rawlf and Veronica but also the old master Sy were shocked by the Sy Madam's words.
