Chapter 163 Staying The Night
"Open the door." The door panel could not conceal the cold and deep sound of Nick's voice.
Veronica stepped back and looked at the door warily. "Mr. Cage, I don't think that it's convenient for you to come inside the house right now!"
"There's no place I can't enter in the whole capital," said Nick firmly.
Veronica certainly does not doubt that, but how could she let Nick in with the current messy state of her house?
If he came inside, he'd see the six little toys, shoes, and clothes scattered everywhere.
Wouldn't Nick Cage find these things suspicious if he came in?
But if she didn't let him in, she did not doubt that Nick would break the door and force himself inside.
She couldn't hide it then.
Veronica turned to hurriedly pick up the small things all at once.
"I can let you in, but Isabella will be back soon. She will see you. What should I say then?" she asked him.
"I won't stay long." Nick stood in front of the door, looking pale and embarrassed.
No one has ever dared to shut him out yet.
This woman's courage was truly commendable.
"How long are you talking about? Give me a few more minutes or I wouldn't let you in. I don't want to be seen by Isabella and have her nag me all night!" Veronica continued to complain to the man waiting outside.
She cleaned the house like crazy and dared not to stop until everything was orderly.
Nick said coldly, "Fine, I'll give you a minute."
One minute? Veronica immediately hurried the movements of her hands. She could feel her heart in a panic.
Not only the living room was cleaned up, but also the milk powder from the kitchen was put into the cupboard. She was sure that all the six little clothes in her room were stuffed safely in the cupboard.
After tidying up, she sent a message to Isabella: "The man is here, don't reply."
After sending it, she was ready to let him inside. But when she saw the bracelet on her wrist, she pulled it off again before opening the door.
Nick looked at her coldly with his black and deep eyes.
Veronica's eyes couldn't help but admire his. But when Nick walked in, she was forced to take a step back, stunned by his terrible and horrifying aura.
Veronica closed the door and looked at Nick, as he looked around the room and muttered, "I don't know why you want to come to live in a place like this."
Nick scanned the foam board of animation pictures lying on the ground and asked, "Is this your taste?"
"Can't I keep my childlike innocence?"
"Where's your room?" Nick asked her.
"Are you going to my room? Why? What are you doing?" At that point, Veronica just wanted Nick to go away.
Although all the things that should be packed have been cleaned up, she was still nervous and afraid that he might find something.
Nick turned his face slightly sideways, looking at her face with his eagle-sharp eyes.
Veronica had no choice but to point him to her room, so she pushed the door open and instructed him, "This is my room and that is Isabella's room."
She was not afraid of Nick going to Isabella's room, because Nick was definitely not going to.
Nick hastily grabbed Veronica's arm as he entered the room.
Before Veronica knew it, he was dragged in by Nick inside the room, and then she was pressed against the door panel.
"Hey, you."
Nick cornered her small body into his tall shadow, making it impossible for her to escape.
"Come on, Isabella will be back soon. You said you wouldn't stay long." Before Veronica could even finish speaking, he inched his face towards hers and the two lips were closer and more dangerous than ever.
Veronica was so nervous she almost suffocated.
Nick's eagle-sharp eyes examined the features on her face. "It seems that the swelling has gone down a bit."
Veronica wanted to turn her face away, but his jaw was controlled by Nick's large hands. She couldn't do it, so she said, "Can we go now? I really have nothing to see here. "
"Oh, I'm staying here tonight."
Veronica looked at him in shock. "How can that be? No way I'm letting you!"
"There's nothing wrong with it as long as I want to." Nick's fingers slightly rubbed the skin of her chin, and the rough feeling was clear.
