Chapter 33 - 33. I love you more than I love my own girlfriend… (1/2)

Lopez Mansion…

Both Mr. Smith and Mr. Lopez were talking about some business stuffs, sitting in the living room and their respective wives were chatting about some random stuffs.

A car honk could be heard from outside, making both of the elder couple more excited. The mothers were the first to run towards the door to see the new couple.

As expected, the dashing couple came out of the car, holding their hands together, which made both of the mothers' mood more brightening.

The couple arrived at the entrance and Veronica immediately ran to hug her mother, leaving Reuben's hand.

”Oh my baby… Look, you become more beautiful after your relationship has been disclosed to us. Right Victoria?” Mrs. Lopez asked her best friend.

Mrs. Smith smiled at Veronica and kissed her forehead. Cupping Veronica's face in her hand, she said, ”My daughter in law looks always beautiful. But you are right Jessi. She becomes more beautiful nowadays that I can't take my eyes off her.”

Veronica blushed at the word 'daughter-in-law' and said shyly, ”Auntie, you are more beautiful than me.”

Suddenly a hand wrapped around Veronica's waist, snatching her from Mrs. Smith's embrace, as the latter glared at the person who tried to snatch her daughter in law from herself.

Reuben shrugged his shoulders and said, ”Come on Mom. Stop trying to butter up my girl. My girl will still love me the most even after you spend 10 kilos of it in buttering her up...”

Mrs. Smith pulled Reuben's ears and shouted, ”You boy.. How do you talk to your mother? You didn't even hug me after seeing me.”

Reuben removed her hands from Veronica's waist and hugged his mother, ”I love you Mom.”

Breaking off the hug, Victoria said, ”I love you too my son..But not more than my daughter in law.”

Reuben pouted but before he could retaliate, Veronica's mother came to his rescue and patted his shoulder, ”Don't worry about your mother. Because I also love my son in law more than my daughter.”
