A Sweet Night The CEO Loves His Wife Ardently

Veronica and Marie looked out the door at the same time and saw Raymond standing at the kitchen door.

Raymond's appearance shocked Veronica and Marie.

Veronica hurriedly placed the bowl of noodles in her hand on the glass table beside her.

"Mr. Cordova!" Veronica quickly called out.

Seeing Raymond glare at Veronica with a dark face, Marie quickly explained to her, "Mr. Cordova, it was my idea. Veronica didn't do anything, please don't blame her."

After Raymond heard Marie's explanation, his expression became even more gloomy.

Veronica had only been at his house for less than a day, and she has already bribed his housekeeper and kitchen maid. They were both speaking for her.

He was the master of this family.

Raymond looked coldly at Marie.

"Marie, even though you have watched me grow up, remember, I am the master of this family. No one should disobey what I said. Do you still want this job?" Marie's expression changed.

Seeing Raymond reprimanding Marie, Veronica was a little angry, so she stood up and spoke up for Marie, "Mr. Cordova, this is not Marie's fault. I came back late. She cooked for me because she was afraid the leftovers will make me sick. It's all my fault!"

When Raymond looked at Veronica, his expression became even colder.

"Veronica, do you know the consequences of standing up for others?"

Veronica blocked Marie behind her and stubbornly raised her chin at Raymond, "I'll take whatever it is since it was my fault."

Marie wanted to say something for Veronica, but Veronica stopped her. She could only sigh and stay behind Veronica.

It was strange.

Why was Raymond suddenly angry today?

Raymond was never courteous, but he had never scolded the servants like this. Marie once broke his cup in front of him, yet he only coldly asked her to clean up the mess and make another cup of tea. Today, Raymond seemed to be ... deliberately targeting Veronica.

How did Veronica provoke Raymond?

However, Veronica seemed to be a student at school. If she had not offended Raymond, she would not have been sent to the villa to be a servant.

Raymond looked at Veronica's stubborn face with a hint of cruelty in his eyes.

"Very good, you'll take it. Now listen carefully!" Raymond said coldly, "Tonight, you will wipe the entire villa with a rag. You are not allowed to sleep until it's done!"

'Wiping the villa with a rag? That was no big deal.' Veronica thought.

"Alright!" Veronica nodded and agreed without thinking, "I promise you, I will do it. But you have to keep your promise too. Don't blame Marie anymore, don't drive her away." Raymond raised his eyebrows.

"Of course. If you accepted the punishment, I naturally won't chase her away. After all, ... she watched me grow up."

Only then did Veronica let out a sigh of relief.

"Good then."

No matter what, Marie was reprimanded by Raymond for her.

She would do anything to protect Marie.

"Go do it then. What are you waiting for?" Raymond looked at Veronica coldly.

"Alright, I'll do it immediately!" Veronica said and prepared to leave the kitchen.

Seeing that Veronica hadn't got to eat the noodles, Marie looked at Veronica with pity and then begged Raymond, "Mr. Cordova, Veronica hasn't eaten yet. So, can she..." Raymond said indifferently, "Marie, have you forgotten what I said, or do you want to leave here?" Marie, "..."

Not knowing how, but Raymond was indeed a little strange today.

Veronica ate quite a lot at noon, yet she had classes the whole afternoon and did a lot of work in the translation office. Now, she began to clean the whole villa with an empty stomach. Moreover, Raymond said that Veronica could not use a mop. So, Veronica had to move around with a bucket. When the water got dirty, she changed to another bucket of water. By 11 o'clock at night, only half of the work was done.

Because of the hot weather and the high intensity of work, Veronica's servant uniform had long been soaked. The sticky feeling was torture.Exclusive © material by Nô(/v)elDrama.Org.

But Veronica couldn't care much about her clothes now. She had a lot of work left.

However, with the high-intensity work and the fact that she hadn't eaten at night, Veronica was soon exhausted.

At this time, Marie suddenly ran over and secretly stuffed a paper bag into Veronica's hand.

Inside were two steamed buns.

"Marie..."

Marie quickly said to Veronica, "I saw Mr. Cordova on the phone just now. He can't be paying attention to you now. Hurry up and eat them. Take a break!"

Seeing Marie take the risk to bring her food, Veronica felt very touched.

However, Veronica rejected Marie and returned the bag back to her.

"Marie, I can't do this!"

Marie looked at Veronica's pale face with heartache. "Veronica, you should eat. Mr. Cordova won't be able to see it. It will give you some energy. Otherwise, you won't be able to hold on."

Veronica shook her head.

"Marie, I won't eat it. Take it away. I can hold on!"

Although Marie could not see it, Veronica could see that there were many hidden cameras in many corners of the villa.

In other words, even though Raymond wasn't in the vicinity, he could still see all of her actions.

Therefore, although Raymond was on the phone right now, his eyes were might on the surveillance footage.

She didn't mind enduring the hunger, but she couldn't put Marie at the risk of losing her job.

Raymond was not a nice person. He was terrible. But the salary here was high. Moreover, Marie had watched Raymond grow up. There must be a bond between her and the family. Otherwise, she wouldn't have been working here for so long.
