Chapter 337 - Innocent face is just a facade... (1/2)
”If Mom catches you with your secret love...then you're going to taste the bitterness of a wife's actual temper!!” Reuben warned in a chilled voice.
”You little fellow.!!! Are you trying to threaten your own dad? How could you? Don't forget that I'm your father and I'm enough capable to punch your face if anything goes wrong.” Mr. Smith scolded on the phone.
Reuben laughed at his father's change of temperament from sweet to sour and teased, ”Dad.. I'm not threatening you. I'm just stating the fact. Moreover, even if you are my father...don't forget that I'll always have the upper hand because my mom loves me more than you...
And if you are successful in punching ne, then I'll just go to my dearest Mom and complain her about my dear father, untying all of his preserved secrets. Specially the one which you attend every week and try your very best to not let my Mom know…
And you know the after result…right?? If Mom comes to know that you're visiting your free time girlfriend every week secretly along with your best friend then I'm sorry to say Dad…you're doomed..”
Mr. Smith cursed under his breath, knowing that whatever his son had said to him was absolutely right.
He even remembered the last time when he got caught my Mrs. Smith and the scolding he had to go through after that.
Just by remembering it, he shivered a little but soon he snapped back at Reuben, ”You ungrateful brat. Don't forget that your mom is my wife first. And what girlfriend you're talking about? It's just a golf match. Yeah…I know your mother doesn't like me to play golf after my health issues and reckons my dear golf stick as her rival but you tell me...
What can I do? After my retirement, it's the only thing to keep me happy. And the best friend of mine you're talking about is also your father-in-law and he had also come here with me secretly. So we're both on the same page.. Humph!!”
”Hey, what are you talking about me with my son-in-law? Don't talk bad about me in front of my daughter's future husband, Logan..” Mr. Lopez couldn't control himself but speak out loud when he heard his friend gossiping about him.
Reuben burst into laughter as he heard both of the old friends' banter. He was about to say something when he heard the honk of the car and he understood his girl had come back.
So he quickly said, ”Okay, both of my lovely dads…I need to hang up the call as Ica is already back. Bye now..”
Cutting the call, he ran towards the door and opened it to find Veronica walking towards him with a beautiful smile on her face.
After entering, she just hugged him tightly and said, ”Look I promised to come back soon and I did. So any more complains?”
Reuben caressed her hair lovingly and said, ”No more complains. Go freshen up. I've cooked your favourite lunch today. So quickly wash up and change into comfy clothes..”
Nodding her head and after giving him a peck on the cheek, Veronica went upstairs to their bedroom while Reuben busied himself in serving the lunch...

After their lunch with lots of chatting and laughing, they decided to take an afternoon nap when Veronica remembered about Regina buying contraceptive pills and her face turned from jovial to a devilish smirk.
Reuben noticed it and nudged her shoulder while asking, ”Why are the evil aura again resonating from your body all of a sudden?”
