Arranged Marriage to the Playboy Heir UNCLES' VISIT
VERONICA 13Once we got into his office and the door went shut, father walked towards the freezer, opened it and took out a bottle of water which he downed half of it. Then he walked around his desk and settled into his seat. He let out a low grunt and then slowly faced me.He stared hard at me for a few seconds.“Who is she?”I was ready for other questions but definitely not this one.“Not anyone important, father.” I said calmly.He stood from his seat, pushed his seat back and started towards me, face stiffened and gaze locked furiously on me.“You think marriage is a joke? Do you? How long do you plan on denting Williams? How long do you plan on living irresponsibly?!”He was struggling to not roar more than he was already doing. I could see it with the way his eyes shone with rage. His face spoke so many words that he didn’t say. That was father, he wasn’t one to let his anger show. Once he told me one of the virtues he knew he must acquire if he was to continue to build William

VERONICA’S POV“What? Quit my work??? Are you crazy?” Vincent flared up. He probably would have shot me dead with the way his eyes glared hard at me.“No, Vincent, don’t see it that way. I mean you can always get job somewhere else, you are very good at what you do. Any hospital out there would take you....”“Enough!” He growled and I flinched.Oh shoot, I thought it was the best plan. I was going to retreat but the words of Chairman Williams charged me up again.I covered up the small distance between us and held his hands in mine. “How about working in Williams Hospital? They are the best in the country. I will...”“Yes, you will speak to your husband about it? To offer me a job in his father’s hospital?” His face contorted with contempt.“Vin...” I tried to speak but he cut me off halfway.“What am I to you right now? Your plaything? One you will push aside soon?”My shoulders dropped and my hold on him loosened. His eyes darkened, I had never seen Vincent that outraged before. Wha
Arranged Marriage to the Playboy Heir FAVOUR
VERONICA’S POVI walked into the house only to be welcomed by the presence of Lawrence’s mother. I froze in my steps, a quick swipe on my face with the back of my palm to wipe off any trace of my tears that could have remained.“There you are! Welcome home my daughter!!” She squeaked like a teenage girl in love.“How was first day at work? It was stressful right?” She made a face as if she could understand my situation. But of course she wouldn’t even if she tried. I wouldn’t have been bothered about work stress if my heart wasn’t feeling this way...would I?“Is anything wrong, my darling?” She asked.“Urh, no, of course not. I am just a little...tired.” I shook my head, cleverly masking my sad face with a forced smile.“Urh-oh, I see. Work must have been quite stressful. How about you get some wash up and come have dinner?”I nodded. Not like I would have refused and told her to get lost, anyways.“Good. Who is there?!” She called out to the servants. Two ladies came running.“Help h
