A Sweet Night: The CEO Loves His Wife Ardently novel Chapter 649

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."
