Chapter 283 - Sudden Commotion... (1/2)

So Reuben immediately went towards her and cupped her face in his hands before asking, ”Babe, Did something happen in the office today? Why are your mood so dampened now?”

Veronica kept the glass on the kitchen slab and held Reuben's hand. She dragged him towards the living room and made him sit on the couch before she herself settled herself on his lap.

By the action of hers, Reuben clearly knew the fact that Veronica's mind was wandering around something. So he just placed his hand on her waist and pulled her more towards him before hugging her tightly.

Reuben started to caress her hair and asked, ”What's running in your mind honey? If you don't tell me how could I solve your problems..”

Veronica tilted her head up to stare at him and said, ”Its not a problem Bennie. It's just that I heard a familiar name today who was once my friend.”

”What do you mean by it, Ica? Whose name have you heard?” Reuben asked.

”It's Diana Miller. Today when I asked Louis about the name of the head designer that my Dad had appointed for his company, he told me that her name is Diana Miller..” Veronica said and took a deep sigh.

”But there can be other person with the same name, right?” Reuben said though internally he felt that having the same name and surname together must not be just a coincidence.

Veronica shook her head and said, ”You are right in one way. But how can her name, surname along with her occupation be same with my friend Diana who went missing all suddenly??

Moreover, she also had been doing a course in fashion designing in city B. So I think the chance is very low of them being different person.”

Reuben stayed silent for few minutes and after pondering over some while, he suggested, ”Ica.. Why don't you ask Dad to send you her CV? Then everything would be clear if she is really your friend or not.”

Hearing this, Veronica immediately shook her head in denial and refused that idea, ”No Bennie, I don't want this to happen. Moreover I'm going to dad's office tomorrow for selecting the design of Lucy's dress. So I'll see her there if she is really my friend Diana or not.”

Reuben nodded his head and said, ”As you wish my darling. Now wipe off that furrowing expression from your gorgeous face.”

Veronica immediately smiled at him and suddenly she remembered something which made her give him a naughty look which Reuben noticed very clearly as he asked, ”Now what?”

Smirking at him, Veronica said, ”Do you know that the little cousin of yours has been dreaming about some girl right now?”

”What? You mean Louis?” Reuben was astonished to hear it.

Slowly nodding her head, Veronica replied, ”Yes.. Louis liked the girl from the first time he met her at Fusion and the girl is now working at Lopez Industries who is none other than Diana herself...

I don't know if she is the Diana from city B, but whoever she is, if she could make our friend fall in love with her and could take care of him wholeheartedly by loving him back the same way then I'm okay with everything...

Even I'll be more than happy for them.”

”Woah!! That's quite a big news to digest.. I hope he soon fell in love with her like us.” Reuben said grinning ear to ear as both of them hugged each other tightly.

Next day...

At Creation...

”So you are not cancelling our plan for today, right?” Lucinda asked on the phone.

”Nope my bestie. I know that, even if I think of cancelling today's plan then I'd not be able to go back my home without any scratch on my face.” Veronica joked.
