Chapter 182 - Deep Turmoil... (1/2)

Alonzo's apartment…

Alonzo was busy in his own thoughts or more like planning few things in his mind about Veronica and Reuben's matter when his phone suddenly rang. He checked it and saw that it was none other than his long time best friend, Cole Parker..

”Hey bro.. What's up?” Alonzo asked a little bit cheerfully than other time.

”Woah.!! Am I hearing Alonzo's voice? If I am really listening to my best buddy Alonzo, then what happened to the cold guy suddenly?” Cole asked from the other side.

A smile set on his face when Alonzo heard Cole and he replied, ”Nothing much dude. It's just that I finally got the courage to get my love back to me.”

”What do you mean? Who is your love? Hey.!! You are not talking about the girl from years ago.. right?” Cole asked.

As Cole was Alonzo's best friend so without his family members, he also knew about Veronica though none of them knew about her identity or never had seen her..

”Yes. I'm talking about her only. Do you want to know who is she?” Alonzo said.

Cole was now really agitated to know about the girl as he asked in excitement, ”Yes.. Tell me who is the girl?”

”She is Veronica Lopez.. heiress of Lopez Industries.. And daughter of James and Jessica Lopez.” Alonzo replied dreamily, thinking about her.

Cole sat rooted in his chair when he heard that the girl Alonzo had loved for years, was none other the one and only Goddess Veronica Lopez who was very much famous among the high society people, specially among boys for her natural beauty and aristocracy like aura.

Her nobility and beguiling beauty was something just to be praised by everyone..

Anyone could be tantalized in a second for this striking enchantress..

But then something clicked on his mind and enquired, ”Wait.. If she was the Veronica Lopez you are taking about.. Then how can she be a gold digger who ran away from you for money? I mean she already has enough money to spend like water..”

”She is not a gold digger which we thought. The letter was all a misunderstanding between us.” Alonzo gritted his teeth and then explained everything to him.

Cole was listening to him while surfing through the business news when his eyes caught something and he started to read the complete tabloids patiently..

”Now what is that? Veronica Lopez and Reuben Smith are in a relationship? What kind of joke is this? Aren't they always some enemies?” Cole asked thinking that the news was nothing but fake, created by some lousy people..

On the other hand, Alonzo sighed sadly and his fingers clenched into a tight fist as he said, ”It's not a joke. It's all true, Cole. They are really dating for almost five years and I've seen that from my own eyes, how close they are to each other.”

”What the hell do you mean? Then why are you not angry?” Cole asked getting perplexed about the whole situation.

Sighing deeply, Alonzo said, ”Yes I was angry at first but now I have decided that I'll not back off anymore. I'll tell you everything when you'll come here.”

Finally Cole remembered for what he had been called and said, ”Alonzo actually there is a little change in my plans.”
