Chapter 682 Here Comes Veronica (45)
Raymond did not directly return to the villa of the Cordova family. Instead, he took her to the hospital to confirm that she was alright. Only then did Raymond bring Veronica back to the villa. When Veronica returned to the villa, it was already one o'clock in the morning.
In the villa, Marie waited for an entire night.
The moment she saw Raymond holding Veronica in his arms, she rushed forward anxiously.
"You're finally back." Seeing Veronica in such a sorry state, Marie felt so worried. "What happened? How did it become like this?"
Raymond carried Veronica into Veronica's room while saying to Marie, "Marie, please make ginger soup right now."
"I've already prepared the ginger soup in the warming pot. I'll go get it now."
Raymond carefully placed Veronica in the chair in her room.
In Veronica's eyes, his careful actions were like treating a rare treasure. When she looked up, she accidentally saw Raymond's perfect lines on his chin. In addition, Raymond's aura was approaching, causing Veronica's heart to beat faster.
How could her heart beat so fast?
Veronica placed her palm on her heart.
After putting Veronica down, Raymond stepped back and said to her, "Most of your clothes are wet. In your current situation, you have to change out of your wet clothes. Can you take a bath and change clothes alone?"
Hearing Raymond's gentle voice, Veronica quickly nodded. "Sure."
Raymond then turned around and walked towards Veronica's wardrobe. He found the pajamas Veronica would wear at night and took out her shorts.
When Raymond handed her clothes, Veronica's face instantly blushed. She took the clothes and entered the bathroom fast.
After a while, the sound of running water came from the bathroom, and Raymond smiled slightly.
He saw that Veronica blushed before she entered the bathroom just now.
At this time, Marie came in with tea. She placed a bowl of ginger soup on the table and handed another bowl to Raymond. "Mr. Cordova, your body is also wet. After drinking this bowl of ginger soup, you should go upstairs to change your clothes quickly."
"Okay!"
Raymond took the ginger soup that Marie handed over and gulped it down.
After drinking the ginger soup at a suitable temperature, Raymond felt his cold limbs gradually warm up.
After that, he handed the bowl back to Marie and glanced in the direction of the bathroom. "Marie, I'll go change first. Please take good care of Veronica."
Marie paused for a short while.
"Sure!"
After Marie agreed, Raymond looked in the direction of the bathroom with warm eyes and walked out of the door.
Marie stared at Raymond's back as he left.
She couldn't help but think, 'It seems that Mr. Cordova's attitude towards Veronica has changed.'
Soon, Veronica came out of the bathroom.
Seeing Veronica come out, Marie quickly handed the bowl of ginger soup to her. "Come, Veronica, please have some ginger soup."
As Veronica took the ginger soup, she kept looking around. There was even a trace of disappointment in her eyes when she did not see Raymond.
"Well, Marie, where is Mr. Cordova?"
Marie was surprised.
Something must have happened between the two of them.All content is property © NôvelDrama.Org.
As an experienced woman, Marie smiled and said to Veronica, "Mr. Cordova went back to his room to change his clothes."
"Did he drink some ginger soup?" Veronica asked with concern.
Marie replied with a smile, "Don't worry. When you went in to take a shower, Mr. Cordova had already drunk it. Moreover..."
Marie deliberately kept them in suspense before continuing, "Before he left, he asked me to take good care of you here."
Veronica, who had just taken a sip of the ginger soup, almost choked because of the second half of Marie's words. Veronica swallowed the ginger soup with all her might, not daring to look at Marie's face. Then, she whispered, "That's good."
Marie smiled brightly.
Just now, if Raymond was the only one who had changed his attitude, then Marie might have misunderstood. But Veronica's expression had changed when it came to Raymond, so Marie was more certain that something had happened between Raymond and Veronica.
Anyway, there was still a long way to go, and even if there was something intimate between them, it would appear sooner or later.
...
Veronica got used to getting up early. The next morning, she got up early as usual and began to clean up.
When she cleaned up and arrived at Raymond's door, Raymond just came out of the bedroom.
He was dressed in sports attire. He glanced at Veronica and went out to jog.
After Raymond left, Veronica couldn't help but cover her beating heart with her hand.
What happened? She had only been glanced at by Raymond. Why did her heart beat faster again? Veronica felt puzzled about her reaction.
When she thought of this, she shook her head and continued to work in the villa.
When she finished cleaning the villa, Raymond happened to run back from outside the villa.
After a simple breakfast, Veronica changed her clothes and prepared to participate in a part-time interview.
This morning, she received an interview call. The caller knew that her name was Veronica and still wanted her to go for the interview, which made Veronica very happy. What made her even happier was that the translation firm was the largest one in Peace City. She had always dreamed of working in that translation firm, but she had been rejected several times before.
Now, she was asked to go for the interview.
Therefore, Veronica was in a good mood early in the morning.
Veronica took her belongings and information lists and then came out of the villa.
Before she could walk out of the villa, a car stopped in front of her.
The window opened and Raymond's face was revealed.
"Get in the car!" Raymond ordered.
Veronica recognized that the car was not the one last night. However, this car was obviously very expensive.
What a luxurious life.
Veronica didn't feel disgusted when she saw him now.
After all... Raymond was her savior.
Veronica immediately waved at Raymond, "No need, Mr. Cordova. I can take the bus myself."
"I'll pass by the translation firm you are going to."
"Alright then!"
Veronica opened the door of the passenger seat and sat in.
When the car drove out of the villa, Veronica suddenly thought of a problem.
Raymond did not know which translation firm she was going to interview at, so how could he know that he would pass by it?
