Chapter 241 - Roomless... (1/2)
Love-Paradise...
It was next day already when Veronica and Reuben was preparing to leave for their work..
They were checking for the last time if they had dropped any important files or not.
Veronica was searching for her charger but she couldn't find it anywhere so she asked, ”Honey, have you seen my charger. It's not anywhere in the room.”
Shaking his head, Reuben said, ”No baby. I have not seen your charger. Maybe you left it in your office yesterday. Go and check there.”
”No Bennie. I'm very much sure that I kept it in my bag before leaving office yesterday. Even I also charged my phone before going for a bath an hour ago. But now it has just disappeared.” Veronica sighed.
”Oh.. Leave it hon.. You already have your power bank with you. So what's there to worry?” Reuben said as he wore his suit jacket.
Afyer a hard try of searching, Veronica finally lost her patience and said, ”You are right. Let's go now. We're already being late today.”
Reuben nodded as he buttoned up his jacket but before they could leave, Veronica stated, ”Wait a minute…”
”Why? Now what happened?” Reuben asked confusedly.
Pointing towards the couch, Veronica showed Reuben the wet towel that was lying on it as she glared at him before scolding, ”How many times do I have to say to you Mr. Smith, not to keep your wet towel on the sofa??
But you never listened, you idiot. One more time and I'll throw your towel out of my room along with you.”
Reuben gulped in fear of being roomless as he pleaded, ”Honey.. I'm really really sorry. It'll not happen again. I promise. Don't throw me out of the room please.”
Huffing at him, Veronica walked towards the couch to discard the towel in wash bin but she stopped in her pose as soon as she picked up the towel in her hand from the couch.
Reuben was unsure why suddenly the big change in Veronica's behavior.
Few seconds ago, she was scolding like an angry mother and now she was silent like an obedient child..
Seemed to be something fishy...
Or more like the silence before a raging storm…
And his intuition turned out to be absolutely correct the next second..
”Reuben. Smith… You and your towel both are useless.” Veronica shouted on the top of her lungs, becoming extremely angry.
”Aye honey.. why are you shouting? Now what did your innocent boyfriend have done that you have call me useless.
You know right how much useful I am specially at night..” Reuben said the last sentence with a naughty smirk plastering on his face.
”Stop smirking like a fool. Here I'm being serious now.” Veronica yelled again as she picked up the her lost charger from the sofa which was hidden underneath Reuben's towel.
Taking the charger, she walked towards Reuben and asked, ”What is this? I was searching for it like a crazy girl for about half an hour and where it was??
It was lying under the great Mr. Smith's used wet towel.. Like seriously??”
