Arranged Marriage: To Hear Your Voice

175 Picking up the Drunk Lover

The bubble tea shop that Tony bought and put in Veronica's name was empty. The crew gave them their drink and gave them space to be alone. Soon, few customers came, her own body guards. women and males in disguisecame and requested for bubble tea as they seat and surrounded Sabrina and Veronica for protection so that no one from the people that are stalking them from Francisco's men would understand their meeting. If they keep meeting in discreet they will surely know.

Sabrina pull out the magazines for weddings and Veronica's eyes dilated in surprise. She look up at her quizzically and Sabrina shrugged.

"Seriously?"

"Don't tell me you don't want to have a wedding? I tell you, wedding is great but it's better if you only wear an expensive gown in front of them just to show off but you also want to please your soon to be hubby though you don't want a crowd… its worth it to. Or if you don't want a grand wedding that Tony like—you can just elope with him in Maldives."

Veronica groan as she drop her shoulders. She lean on her seat and sip on her bubble tea.

"Come on, just pick a wedding gown, or maybe you want Brandon's design."

"Whatever." She mutter. Sabrina chuckle and sipped on her bubble tea. "I am not into wedding gowns." Sabrina laughs.

"Me either not until Gabriel showered me with gems. Its not like I was into those gems—it's just that—he's too adorable when he ask for something."

"Are we really here to talk about the wedding?"

Sabrina laugh a little and then turn into her professional mode.

"Veronica, do you want to go back there as Vanessa and take over your grandfather's business?"

Veronica was surprised at her first question. She would never go back there as Vanessa and whatever the business that her grandfather is—she didn't want to get involve in it. She's happy and contented as Veronica.

"No." She said. "I don't even remember how my grandpa looks like."

"Well, he put every real estates and money to your name. You are his heiress."

"Then I have to kill Francisco first because he's going to use me to have it all."

"Sure. After I torture him." Sabrina said. "Get yourself ready. I know it is hard for you to hold yourself in front of him. You can always use the sparring room to let it all go."

Veronica sneer.

"Sylvia wasn't that pleased at all."

Sabrina laugh and reminiscence how she fight with Sylvia. Sylvia wasn't that good enough compare to her and Veronica. She can finish her off in few seconds but she want to play along and don't want the fight to finish too soon.

"She is your father's whore. Of course she crave for power and she get too insecure now that you are Tony's fiancée. Who wouldn't get insecure? Women around you want to have Lawson as their lover, but my hubby is long taken and he isn't interested at all in anyone."

Veronica rolled her eyes.

"You keep on babbling about your husband. Can we not talk about Lawson for a while?" Her head is going to explode. Sabrina giggle.

"Just kidding V and teasing you a little." Sabrina stop giggling and then she sigh and remain calm. She's like this because she's nervous that they are near to the climax of their plot.

"Sabrina. I can do this." Veronica mutter.

"I know you can." She smile. "Let's have a party okay?"

"What party?"

"We are going to a strip club." Sabrina mutters with grin and Veronica almost choke from the black pearls that she's nibbling.

"Are you insane? Tony will get mad at this."

"So will Gabby." Sabrina laugh out loud that surprises the agents around them but they remain casual around like a normal customer would. "It will be fun. They will be dancing in front of us and we will shower them paper bills. Isn't it awesome?" Sabrina asked with her playful smiles.

"Oh, come on! You are trying to get me killed." Veronica face-palm and almost sulk on her seat because of embarrassment as she look around the agents.

"I want to see how Gabby would react. I mean—he's always spoiling me…" she grin.

They left the Bubble tea house and walk around the corner where Sabrina parked her car.

"I am going to pick up Gabby in Elite Bar, wanna come?"

"What is he doing there?" Veronica asked as she took out her ringing phone from her bag.

"Well, he has a meeting about the annual party." She said.

"Wait." She answer Tony's call. The background was so noisy but she manage to hear his voice.

"V…"

"Where the fuck are you and why is it noisy there?" Veronica scowl in low voice.

"I am drunk. Pick me up please." Tony said in baby voice.

"Where?" She asked.

"Elite bar… I am drunk."

"Ohh, for goodness sake its damn weekdays and you still have work tomorrow!" She hang up and face Sabrina.

"That's a mad fiancée." Sabrina said as she bounce her head.

"He's getting on my nerves!" She massage the spot between her brows.

"Hop in! We are going to punish them!"

Veronica and Sabrina arrive at the Elite Bar in few minutes since she's an expert in racing. She park it on the VIP spot as they enter the bar. Sabrina went to the VIP room where Gabriel was while Veronica ask the front desk on where Tony was. Then she enter the room and different smell of perfume, cigarettes and alcohol enters her nostrils.

Men and women partying. She glower at Tony as they all look at her.
