Chapter 57 Such A Pretty Face
Veronica Parker withdrew her eyes and pretended that she didn't see him.
Then she looked away, scanned the crowd to find Nick Cage.
Fortunately, she didn't see him after she turned around and searched for his familiar face.
It seems that Nick is really not coming as Chloe said.
She was really freaked out by herself, too.
How could Nick Cage be here? He severed ties with the Cage family.
The people in the banquet hall must have doubted her identity, but no one dared to ask. Even if they didn't ask, they would almost know who she was.
Yet, it looks like Chloe and Kevin don't care.
"Elder Sister!" John sprang out.
Veronica bowed her head and looked at a small figure of John. She looked at the baby's fat face, fleshy, and looked dashing with a suit and his big round eyes.
"Elder sister, are you here to see me?"
"Well, it's up to you."
John's little face flushed with excitement.
Veronica Parker thought what a sweet child he is. With such a short reply, he became happy in the twinkling of an eye.
There was a commotion outside the door and even Veronica felt the disbelief and astonishment of onlookers outside through the glass.
The glass is a little reflective and she can't really see what's going on. What she only saw was that there was a big hoard of people outside, and the amazement of people who are close to the inner hall of the hotel was evident.
Veronica thought for a while. 'Who's here? Are there any other big shots not present?'
However, Veronica Parker turned white with fear when she saw the handsome brooding figure that came in, and her body staggered back uncontrollably.
'That's Nick. I thought he's not coming. Why did he come here?'
Not only Veronica was surprised, even the birthday celebrant Kevin and Chloe next to her were shocked.
Some of the people present recognized him as the person in charge of the KING Group, while others did not.
They probably know the unusualness at the moment from the aura of the atmosphere.
"Nick, are you really here?" Kevin Cage was surprised. He didn't expect that Nick would show up at his birthday party unannounced
"Of course, I'll come for your birthday."
"This is really my best gift of the year!" Kevin Cage said happily.
Nick's face was expressionless. His eyes turned slightly and it fell on Veronica Parker next to him. She was suffocated by the sharpness and the falcon-like eyes of Nick. Veronica's face was a little pale. She dared not look at Nick's face at all.
"Who is this woman?" Nick asked as if he had met Veronica Parker for the first time.
Kevin hesitated. After all, he's afraid that Nick would be unhappy, but thought about it and answered him truthfully. "This is Chloe's daughter, Veronica Parker. She currently works in your KING Group. Maybe you haven't noticed her. "
Nick walked up to where Veronica is, and his tall figure stood there. Veronica suddenly felt that the air around her became thin, making it difficult for her to breathe.
Her hands-on side trembled. She was so nervous and was so scared that made her sweat.
Then, Nick Cage in full view of the public reached out and grabbed Veronica Parker's chin wantonly. He looked at her viciously. "I didn't notice such a beautiful face."
As she trembled with fear, Veronica stepped back and ran away without looking at anyone.
Nick slowly put down his hand, and the coldness in his black eyes almost dropped as cold as the ice.
Veronica Parker ran out of the hotel hall with her long skirt that flowed majestically. She ran to the road in a long way, and then stopped when she was about to collapse.
There's a lot of confusion in her head.
The terrible black eyes Nick stared at her that made her scalp numb and chill.
She was bewildered why Nick showed up. 'Didn't my mother say he wouldn't show up?'
The car galloped over and stopped beside her. Before Veronica could react, she saw the person inside appear gloomily.
She was so scared that she turned around and attempted to run, but before she could run a few steps, she was caught and thrown into the car.
In the presidential suite of a hotel.
"Ah!" Veronica Parker was carried like a sack and thrown in by Nick and fell on the carpet.
The pain from the friction on her knee made her tremble slightly and she desperately tried to stand up, but her legs were weak.
She saw Nick Cage sat on the sofa with his impassive face raised haughtily. His legs folded, cigarette lit, and a lighter snapped, all of which shook Veronica Parker's heart.
Nick took a puff of his cigarette as if he were forcibly suppressed something.
A low and raspy voice resonated that made her chill. "Take off your clothes by yourself, or do you want me to help you take them off myself?"
