Chapter 75 - Capable of Handling Such Matters... (1/2)

Few days later…

It was only 6 am so both Ica and Bennie were still sleeping in each other's arms when Reuben's phone rang out loudly.

Reuben opened his eyes to pick up the phone but when he saw who was calling him at this moment, Reuben's brows furrowed down. He then looked at the sleeping beauty in his arms and answered the call, ”Hey..”

Willa said, ”Hi Reuben. Good morning.”

”Yeah. Morning. Why did you call me so early in the morning?” Reuben asked.

”Actually Reuben… there are some issues that I need to tell Vero. Is she awake?” Willa asked.

Reuben frowned as he said, ”Issues? What kind of issues? Ica is sleeping right now. Tell me what happened. I'll pass the message when she wakes up.”

Willa on the other hand sighed and told Reuben everything what she got to know this morning in details.

After hearing everything, Reuben said, ”Okay. I understand. Now don't worry too much about the matter and tell Louis to complete the task that you guys have planned before. After Ica gets up, I'll tell her to call you.”

Cutting the call, Reuben looked at the girl beside him who was his life and sighed. He thought to himself that his girlfriend really had some brain to think of such an amazing plan. He then hugged her waist again and buried his face in Veronica's neck.

Veronica's eyes twitched when she felt Reuben's uneasy hands on her body. She opened her eyes slowly and asked in still a hoarse voice, ”Honey, stop roaming your hands and let me sleep.”

Despite of Veronica's warning, Reuben kept wandering his hand here and there which really made Veronica angry and she roared, ”Reuben Smith.... If you still don't stop right now, then I swear I'll you kick you out of our room tonight and let you sleep on the floor.”

This warning was enough for Reuben to stop his actions and he lied down beside her gently, hugging her simply.

Veronica buried her face in Reuben's chest and smiled secretly before dozing off to sleep again.

Alonzo's Apartment...

Alonzo was sitting in his living room, sipping black tea and checking some documents.

This is when his assistant, Bill called him to inform him something really serious.

”Hello?” Alonzo picked up the call.

Bill hurriedly said, ”Boss there is something big news circulating around the whole city, which is now the top search among all.”

Alonzo frowned when he listened to his assistant's round words. ”Will you please tell me the exact matter?” He asked impatiently.

Getting the impatient vibe from his boss, Bill immediately spilled out the things he got to know in the morning.
