Chapter 114 - I’m not a lion who will eat you... (1/2)

Few days later…

Love-Paradise…

It was already Monday when the meeting for the contract signing between the three companies was scheduled. But the dispute here was that Veronica didn't know about the other company which was the main source of the deal.

She was extremely busy the previous week on distributing her work pressure to her subordinates and couldn't get any time to enquire Louis about the third company which is none other than Smith Enterprise.

She trusted Louis more than anything. After all, he was the one who helped her to create her own empire Creation. He stood with her for everything and fought with her to make her company from dust to diamond.

Reuben and Veronica just finished their breakfast when Reuben suddenly said, ”Ica, I will not be able to drive you to your company today. I have some important meeting.”

Veronica nodded her head in understanding and replied, ”That's not a big problem. I'll drive on my own car.”

Reuben released a sigh of relief when Veronica didn't suspect anything and he mentally clapped for himself to plan such a big surprise for her.

When he was busy in self- praising, Veronica narrowed her eyes at him, thinking of the reason of his sudden unusual behavior but shook it off when Reuben gave her a sweet smile.

Creation…

It was already nearly the time to start the meeting. Alonzo had just arrived there with his assistant Bill and Brad took them to the large meeting hall.

Louis also arrived there with Veronica and Willa following him.

They seated themselves around the large mahogany table. Alonzo's eyes never moved from Veronica but when he noticed that another girl came with her, he furrowed her brows.

Observing Alonzo's confused face, Veronica introduced, ”Mr. Brown, she is Willa, my personal assistant. She would be helping us in this project.”

Alonzo nodded his head before shaking Willa's hand. Willa also acknowledged him by a small smile.

”So shall we start the meeting?” Veronica asked after opening her laptop.

Louis's mouth got dried when he heard the question. But to his good luck, Alonzo answered her before he could say something.

”Actually we still can't.”
