Seduction: The taste of Lust Chapter: 39 Friends Indeed
Veronica's PovEd hasn't said a word to me after that, we are still in the living room except for my mom, who was sleeping in my room. She had fun catching on to my life through my friends but the exhaustion from the flight hit her and made her cranky so to save myself and everybody else, I asked her to rest.Now, it was eleven-thirty and as much as I want to crash on my bed and sleep I know Ed's non-responsiveness towards me will not let me have a peaceful sleep. One of them already knows that the rumors are true, actually two of them, Kelly as well, and now that the rest also knows about the rumors might as well tell them too that it's true.I clink my wine glass catching all their attention, "guys" I stand up and centered myself, "as you know there are a lot of rumors about me and-""Leonard" Lexi interuppts,"Well yes," I smile and continue, "the more so reason to tell you guys that whatever they're saying-""Is not true, we know Veronica" Aiden raises his beer can and clinks it

Veronica's POVToday ends everything. I have waited for this day for so long and now that it's here I'm getting all scared and nervous. I don't know what the ruling will be but I'm confident in my case.Right now I was sitting on the plaintiff's seat with my lawyer on the right side of the room. There are some paperwork on our table and soon the crowd started to appear, I asked Leonard to arrange two reporters to witness the case ruling and as easy they were to spot they all looked like someone who's been seriously haggard. I hope Leonard didn't put too much pressure on them cause from the looks of it they look a bit terrified. I look around the room and spot my mom, Lexi, and Kelly sitting on the seat behind mine with a concerned expression. They look worried and seriously seeing their faces is making me more nervous, There are ten minutes on the clock till the judge appears and I'm freaking out. What if the case doesn't work in my favor, what if she bribed someone to replace the

Leonard,I was on the bed when I got the call, the most awaited call of my life, "boss we got him" that's what I needed to hear, that's what they said, that's what's going to make my life a bit easier. They got him, they fucking got the one who stole the real chip from Kelly and replaced it with a fake one,Yes, the real chip was with Kelly but someone who has access to both Veronica and Kelly got the chip first and replaced it with a fucking fake one,When Aiden brought that chip at the party I knew it was fake all along. The person who has the real chip is working with someone close to us and to find out who it was I needed to give a dramatic performance to make both Aiden and Andrew believe that I had no clue about the chip being fake. One of them is linked with that person and the way I react and behave is very observed by this person, so not only did I plant my people on Veronica's friend, I even made a public gesture to get this person out of his holeAnd now that he's out, he

Veronica"Lexi?" I called her name out as I untied my shoes and neatly placed them on the rack. I walked inside her apartment and take my regular spot on her barcalounger. Her place is exactly the same, nothing changed. Retro carpets, brick walls, and vases along with the hanging pots with artificial flowers on the windows.I notice a couple of new refrigerator magnets by the kitchen and I don't know if I'm putting the pattern right or not but one of the magnets seems to be for me. A letter L in red is crossed off and tell me if I'm being paranoid but I think it means Leonard and the cross is her way of saying I should break up with him.Seriously I don't understand. I thought we cleared all the negative assumptions about him so why get a magnet that could mean literally anything but it has to be this. I got up and walk to the kitchen opening the fridge and getting a beer before closing it a little harder to let the magnets fall but they didn't.I support my arms on the counter and

Leonard"Where are you going?" Andrew hurriedly got up and pulled me by my arms, "we're almost done Leo, don't you dare screw this" he warned me but I think he's forgetting something.I don't take orders, I unhand myself from his hold and threw a punch at his face. "Stay here and get the chip, I need to go" I bang my hand against the picture telling him to grasp the situation.He looks at the picture while covering his nose, "holy fuck" "I'm leaving you in charge, take care of this and safely board the flight with the chip, I'm leaving"He wipes his blood and pats my shoulder asking me to hurry, "and my father knows about the situation, he's covering the deal so fly it to him"I ran down the entrance and exited the building instructing my people to follow Andrew and board out before midnight.I get inside the car and quickly drove to the airport, messaging Nil my private pilot, on the way to get the plane ready. I take this chance and dialed Veronica's number but as expected it went

Leonard"Spice talk to me" "She's here""Is she hurt?""Yes"My grip around the phone was getting tighter with each information. She's hurt, they fucking hurt her. If I hadn't planted Spice among them, then locating Veronica would have taken days. Now I know who they are, how many of them are involved, and what I need to do.I fiercely hung up the call and turn my face, meeting the ever-ready look of my people, just one command and they are off. I gesture to them to bring Spencer and follow Plan Klutz, if we are doing this then I want to end it perfectly. My lifelong habit of planning everything in advance comes in handy, I've looked through all the outcomes when the chip was gone, fighting against Viking was one of them. I prepared it in advance knowing if anything goes haywire with the chip then we have nothing but to follow plan Klutz which means taking down the Viking members, the security, and every other who knows how to use a gun with a paralyzing drug.Who knew Veronica wo

VeronicaFuck they spiked my drink. How didn't I think of that before drowning the whole thing down my throat? The icky feeling against my inside is still there, I feel nauseous. I open my eyes and looked around the room, crap they switched the room. This is not where I was before. This room is so much smaller than the previous one. It's like a prison, faded grey walls, wallpaper peeling from the sides, a little window on the top, and one tiny bed on the left side. The whole room gave me a claustrophobic vibe. I tried getting up, my leg was numb from sitting too long but still, I managed to wiggle it up when I notice my hands, the cuff was gone. I wasn't tied so they indeed locked me. I put my right arm on the wall supporting myself for a stand and lazily walked to the door. I tried opening it but none to my surprise was locked. I slouched to the bed and rest my head when I heard something. A sound, possibly of breaking a door, I faced the ceiling trying to hear the sound again an

LeonardShe is okay, he said. She lost a lot of blood but she is okay, they had to perform surgery to close the wound and stop the blood but she is okay. Nothing serious but she is sore, the wound was deep and she needed intensive care. I was listening intently to the words of the doctor, the treatment they'll do on her, the medicines they'll gonna use, the amount of time she needs in the ICU, what kind of food she needs for the next few days and almost every other thing that'll fasten her recovery."She is doing fine Mr. King, you can wipe off that vein from your forehead" the doctor smiles and pats my shoulder, "also when you ask for a doctor next time, try to be nice and not scary," he says and starts to leave,"Doc?" I softly call him out making him stop on his tracks, "can I....?" he understands my question and nods his head,I braced myself and enter the room where they just put Veronica. I hesitantly walk over to the bed, afraid to see her covered in bandages, afraid that she
