Chapter 59 - The sooner you become friends... the more gossips you can have... (2/2)

The boys just rolled their eyes at these girls' over friendly behavior and continued drinking.

Lucinda narrowed her eyes at the boys and asked, ”Why you guys are rolling your eyes now?”

”Why shouldn't we? Do you think we are fools? Obviously you girls became friends with each other at the first meeting because, the sooner you become friends... the more gossips you can have...

Isn't it right? Huh!!” Henry mocked.

”Oh really Henry? At least we girls are smart, not some dumbs like you boys who only know about their so called ego. Humph!” Veronica berated them.

Reuben raised his eyebrows and counter attacked, ”Dumb? Are you saying this to yourself? Of course, the handsome men like us can't be dumb. So it must be you girls.” He pointed at Veronica and Lucinda.

Veronica shot him an angry glare and replied, ”Huh? Who are you guys calling handsome? Just see your face in the mirror. You are even uglier than a pig.”

”What pig? Dude. You must be joking. Have you guys lost your eyesight at this young age? All the girls of this country lure around these handsome faces.” Henry scoffed.

Veronica rolled her eyes and fought back, ”Oh really? Then those girls must be blind to run after you.”

Reuben firely questioned the girls, ”If we are not handsome then which man is handsome in your eyes? I bet there would be anyone else without us.”

”Stop being this big narcissists.” Looking at here and there Lucinda grinned and replied, ”Look the biggest example of a handsome man is right in front of us... Mr. Alonzo Brown. Isn't it Vero?”

Veronica took a peek at Reuben and seeing his frowned expression, she smirked, ”Yes. I totally agree with you Lucy. Mr. Brown is really a handsome man.”

Both Reuben and Henry's face turned black seeing their girls praising another man in front of theirs eyes and even calling him handsome. They both glared at their girlfriends in jealousy to warn them but the girls pretended that they hadn't seen anything.

Alonzo's heart fluttered after hearing the word 'handsome' from Veronica's lips and his eyes showed a happy glee which couldn't be noticed by anyone except his grandmother.

Actually grandmother Brown did some research before coming to city S about the famous families here. She came to know that the Lopez family were friends with the other three big families (Smith, Wilson, Johnson). And the most important thing is Veronica is also very good friends with the other kids of these three families.

She also found out that Veronica and Reuben are like moral enemies who always fought with each other. She actually tried to know that if Veronica had any boyfriend or not and she saw some of the pictures of her and Reuben together at some parties and restaurants with their friends.

This made her suspicious about both of them, if they were couple or not but finally sighed in relief when the detective that she hired informed her that love is many many far away in their relationship; if there is anything between them, then it is all hatred and fights..
