Veronica CEO's Underworld Queen novel Chapter 128

  "I… this. ." Allia Ming stuttered and trembled in fear.

  Her hands shook while her sweat started to form out of her skin.

  "I hope that you read the important details. I will let you off, considering the old feelings you had with my father. But the next time you would dare do anything, already expect your end And of

  your son."

  Rawlf then started to walk out of the conference room.

  Seeing this, Allia Ming walked fast and blocked his path. She knelt down on both knees and surrendered to her current miserable situation, kowtowing to the man in front.

  "Please, I beg you. Your brother needs your help, if you're not going to take this fact into consideration, at least that he is your father's son too. You have to help him! Please!"

  Rawlf just looked at the kowtowing woman below him, this scene looks pitiful however, Rawlf knowing what this woman is exactly capable of felt indifferent instead.

  "I asked my father how to deal with you," Rawlf paused then continued, "He only said one line and that is…., "You are my only son."

  Allia Ming looked up to Rawlf, startled.

  'How…how could it be? She thought she successfully hid it! Even she tried to deceive herself all throughout the years so how could…'

  Rawlf was unbothered by the woman's expression then stared at the secretary beside him.

  Secretary Ryan was quick to act and soon enough, security arrived. Shortly, the kowtowing woman was screaming and cursing Rawlf for being selfish and wanted to get rid of Rudolph because he felt threatened of his existence to his position in Sy International while being dragged out by the security in a rather forceful way.

  Rawlf just ignored this and strode to another hallway that will lead him to his office, Secretary Ryan followed him, shaking his head while trying to contain his laughter at what the Ming Madam screamed about Rawlf earlier.

  It's the same with the other staff of Sy International who were able to hear the screaming of the woman.

  'There President Rawlf Sy? Feeling threatened of an incompetent bastard? Who is she joking with?'

  They uttered in obvious contempt.

  About the same time in Country R, the old master Sy and madam Sy were alone in the pavilion made of stone at the backyard garden of the castle.

  Earlier, Veronica's parents were with them enjoying their early evening tea, looking at the rich garden in full bloom while their grandchildren already slept for the night.

  Seeing Rawlf called him, the old master Sy put his phone in loud speaker thinking he was asking them of the twins. Who would have thought that the first thing he said as soon as he answered his call was something about that shameless woman from the Ming threatening to stripped herself naked if Rawlf won't meet her.

  He could only tell him about what he briefly said last time and glanced at Vanessa.

  Understanding that the older Sy couple had something to talk about issues between them, the Wang couple excused themselves.

  And presently, they're both alone together, in total silence.

  Old master Sy cleared his throat to speak but Vanessa stood up to walk away. "We need to talk."

  Madam Vanessa paused and replied coldly, "There is nothing to talk about." "There is, Vanessa. Between us."

  "We have… indeed.. people between us. A son, a future daughter-in-law, and grandchildren. They are the only people that I consider to at least be civil with you. Aside from that, there's nothing left between us, Robert."

  "Vanessa. I…."

  Seeing that Vanessa is really walking away, Robert decided to confess the truth once and for all, "Rawlf is my only son."

  Madam Vanessa paused and sighs. "I know." Old master Sy this time was astonished.

  'She knew?! Then how?!' His eyes were filled with extreme confusion. If she knew, then why was she still so indifferent throughout the years with him?!

  "I know that Rawlf is only your son. Ric is a son of your dead friend from the underworld. Rudolph was that woman's son from another man. I know it all Rudolph, I've known it through the years."

  Old master Sy remained speechless. His face was indescribably aghast. He looked at the woman before him. She was also already looking at him.

  "You're wondering why was I still indifferent with you despite knowing it all?",

  Madam Vanessa heaved a sigh before continuing, "it's because clearly, you love your pride more than you ever claimed you love me."

  "Vanessa ….I…" Old master Sy walked to approach her but Vanessa moved away to put distance between them.

  "I've been watching everything for the past years Robert. And unfortunately for you, I understood everything… your purpose and intention. I could see it all. I still could be civil with you, for the sake of those we both treasured. But we will never get back together. Not anymore. Our time has already passed."

  Old master Sy's whole being shook by this!

  He remained rooted on the ground watching the only woman in his heart leave.

  "A man who truly loves a woman wouldn't want to see her get hurt, Robert. Love was never vindictive."

  Madam Vanessa walked away, with her usual cold eyes shedding a single tear. A single tear for the years that quickly passed by.

  Years ago, before Vanessa and Robert found each other, Vanessa had a highschool sweetheart. However, that high school sweetheart could no longer bear the inferiority he felt every time he was with Vanessa because her family was wealthier than his and decided to break things between them to study college abroad and hopefully become a better man for her.

  That's the man's lifetime wrong move as he was so confident with Vanessa's love for him that she won't even try finding any other man.

  Unfortunately for the teenage sweetheart, it is in college that Robert and Vanessa found each other.

  Robert considered their first meeting as 'love at first sight' to the oblivious Vanessa who was still trying to move on from a terrible heartache. However, due to Robert's determination to woo her and also making her feel treasured and loved, Vanessa fell for him gradually.

  By second year in college, after almost two years of courtship, Vanessa finally accepted and reciprocated Robert's feelings and since then, they were stronger until marriage, and even until they have Rawlf.

  However after many years, the teenage sweetheart returned and asked Vanesa out.

  Vanessa, considering that she at least shared old feelings with that man, met him. However, that man was still after all, held deep feelings for her and with the persuasion of another woman no other than Allia Ming, he tried to deceive Vanessa by making her drink a spiked glass of wine.

  Indeed, Vanessa fainted and the man brought her to a hotel. And helplessly, Vanessa was raped.
