A Sweet Night: The CEO Loves His Wife Ardently novel Chapter 646

Raymond saw through the resentment in Veronica's eyes.

He smiled slightly. "What? You look reluctant. Are you angry that I stopped you?"

Veronica tried her best to squeeze out a smile. "How could that be? You helped me when I was in my most dire state. I was so grateful to you that I couldn't be angry with you. Look at the smile on my face now."

Yes, the expression on her face showed that she wasn't angry, but that smile couldn't be more fake.

"I don't care if you are angry or not, but I am your employer now. You have to take the employer first in everything. You should have professional ethics, right?"

Veronica thought, 'Can you stop talking so much? Why don't you get to the point?'

Veronica took a deep breath and reminded Raymond with a smile, "Mr. Bryson, didn't you call me just now? You must have something to tell me, right? I wonder ... what it is."

Raymond pointed to the floor of his study room. "The floor is too dirty. You should clean it now."

Veronica was speechless.

The smile on her face froze as she looked at Raymond.

What did he mean by this? Want her to clean his study now? Was he joking? He clearly knew that she still had classes in the afternoon.

Veronica coughed and explained to Raymond, "Mr. Bryson, I have to go to class in the afternoon. I have to go to take the bus now. If I work now, I am afraid I will be late for class. I will clean your study, but ... can you wait for me to come back and clean it after class?"

Raymond's eyes met Veronica's eyes.

Veronica's eyes shone with sincerity.

Of course, Raymond could see the urgency behind that sincere gaze.

In a hurry to go to class? Did she think of this result when she tried to blackmail him?

Raymond's face was cold as he narrowed his eyes and said word by word, "No way!"

Veronica didn't know what to say.

Her smile suddenly froze.

She wanted to pour the tea she had just made directly over his head.

Veronica forced out a smile and continued, "Mr. Raymond, my afternoon class is very important. This professor has a bad temper and hates students being late. Otherwise, if he knows that I am late, I will fail my class and affect my credits. So..."

"No. If you leave now, you will break the contract. If you break the contract, you will have to pay ten times the compensation of the contract!" Raymond's reply was also resolute and decisive. "If I were you, I would clean up as quickly as possible before going to class, instead of wasting time arguing here!"

Veronica was speechless.

Alright, he won!

Veronica cursed Raymond a hundred times in her heart, then quickly put her book aside, and went to the bathroom to get a mop and a rag.

While Veronica was busy cleaning the study room, Raymond sat behind the desk and looked at his documents in a good mood.

Many times, Veronica wanted to throw the rag in her hand on Raymond's head, but when she thought of the penalty fee, Veronica resisted.

According to Raymond's request, she wiped all the floor in the study room at the fastest speed and also wiped the table and the bookcase.

After doing all this, Veronica panted and said to Raymond, "Mr. Bryson, I've finished it. Please take a look."

The professor started the lecture, and Veronica had no time to think about other things.

After class, Veronica's good friend, Stella Bruno, walked over.

"Veronica, you were almost late. Do you know that this professor hates students being late the most?" Stella reminded Veronica.

Veronica smiled at Stella. "I am not late, am I?"

Stella looked at the other students who were talking about Veronica and then looked at Veronica with concern.

"They said that your father's company went bankrupt. Moreover, your family was also detained by the court to the creditor. Is this true?"

Veronica nodded calmly. "It's true. It happened yesterday."

Having been treated coldly by her uncle and aunt, currently, Veronica was very calm in the face of her classmates.

After all, ... she had experienced the worst.

"What?" Stella looked at Veronica worriedly. "Why didn't you call me yesterday? Where do you live now?"

"Oh, I found a job, so I did not call you."

At that time, she had thought of calling Stella, but Stella lived outside the school with her boyfriend. She did not want to disturb them, so she did not call her.

Stella heaved a sigh of relief upon hearing Veronica's words. "That's good."

"Oh, by the way, I have good news for you. That diplomat, Ms. Hopper, whom you admire the most, will come to Peace City in a month. Moreover ... she will become a visiting professor in our university."
