Chapter 195 - Mission to protect Veronica... (2/2)

”Honey… Take care of yourself. Okay? I might not be there with you but I promise I'd come there at the moment I got the final evidence. Till then, just stay strong.” Reuben said embracing Veronica in his arms tightly.

Veronica sniffed his fragrance and felt calmness hovering over her mind as she said, ”Don't worry Bennie. I'll take good care of myself. You know right that how much strong I am both mentally and physically..”

Reuben smiled at her statement and kissed on the tip of her nose before saying, ”Yes. I know that my baby is the best. Now let's go, otherwise we both will be late.”

Nodding her head at him, Veronica and Reuben both went outside. Tom was already waiting for Reuben there as Veronica demanded to go to Fusion alone by her own car..

Before leaving, Reuben pecked her on the lips and said, ”Stay strong, my love.”

”I will. And moreover, you have already assigned bodyguards for me. Isn't it?” Veronica narrowed her eyes.

Reuben was confused with her sudden question because he had really not assigned any bodyguards for her, so he denied immediately, ”But I didn't honey...”

Veronica rolled her eyes and said sarcastically, ”Do you think my brothers are less than any bodyguards?”

Hearing it, Reuben laughed aloud as both of them left for their own destination by their different cars after giving another little kiss to each other..

Inside Neil's car..

Willa was sitting beside Neil as both of them were going to Fusion for their mission to protect Veronica and also to solve the biggest mystery of the so called Alonzo Brown..

While driving, Neil was stealing some glances from Willa which she noticed very clearly as she asked him with her raised eyebrows, ”What?”

Chuckling at her, Neil shook his head and said, ”Nothing. I just wanted to thank you for listening to your heart.”

Willa smiled at him and replied, ”Then you should say thanks to your sister Vero. She is the one who made me realise that I should not suppress my feelings.”

”Vero.. But how?” Neil was shocked to hear that his sister's name from Willa and more confused at the mention of Veronica helping Willa in this..

Seeing his confusion, Willa remembered the day when Veronica had confronted her in their office..

Two days ago..

Veronica saw that Willa was behaving abnormally from past few days so she took Willa to lunch so that she could talk to her personally.

”Willa, can you please tell me what's bothering you?” Veronica asked.

”Nothing Vero. You are just assuming things.” Willa replied.

”Well, I'm not assuming anything. If you think me as your bestie then please tell me the truth.” Veronica tried to persuade her..
