A Sweet Night The CEO Loves His Wife Ardently

Seeing that someone was blocking his way, Augustine was angry.

Because his drunken eyes could hardly focus, Augustine did not try to see the man's face. He only knew that it was a man with a cast.

Augustine burped and looked at Raymond with an arrogant expression. "Are you trying to save the beauty when you're wearing a cast? You must be crazy. I advise you to mind your own business. Now fuck off."

Veronica was surprised to see Raymond.

However, she was worried as well.

Raymond looked so weak. He looked like he couldn't bear any weight. If Raymond was alright, he might be able to save Veronica. However, he had a cast on his arm. Veronica didn't think Raymond was a match for Augustine.

At a time like this, she could only count on herself.

Augustine was distracted by Raymond's appearance and relaxed his grip on Veronica.

Veronica had learned a few self-defense techniques. She watched her chance and bit Augustine's palm. She bit so hard that she immediately tasted blood.

Augustine screamed, and Veronica took the opportunity to step on Augustine's foot. Augustine jumped aside and released Veronica.

At this critical moment, Veronica escaped from Augustine's arms.

Augustine was angry and tried to catch Veronica again. But Veronica seized her opportunity and kicked Augustine in the crotch.

Augustine let out a scream. He curled up there holding himself. He was completely defeated.

Raymond was stunned by what he saw.

To his shock, Veronica knocked Augustine down by herself.

Veronica stood in front of Augustine and said coldly, "Mr. Fleming, I will go to the company to submit my resignation tomorrow. Also, please give me my salary for this month tomorrow."

With that, Veronica turned and left.

Augustine watched Veronica leave and angrily shouted, "Bitch, mark my words, I will make you pay for what you did today."

After yelling, Augustine walked back to the private room with an angry expression. Before he left, he glared at Raymond.

After dinner, Raymond walked to the roadside outside the hotel to wait for his car.

After his car stopped in front of him, Raymond got in.

However, right after Raymond got into the car, the door on the other side of the car was opened and a person quickly got in too.

Raymond frowned and looked over. He saw Veronica sitting beside him.

"Why are you here?"

Veronica looked at Raymond awkwardly. "I guessed that you would go back after dinner. So I want to hitch a ride."

Raymond was about to tell Veronica to get out of the car when he saw the torn cloth on Veronica's shoulder, her trembling body, and the handprint on her swollen cheek. Then he bit back his words. It seemed that she was truly frightened.

Just now in the hotel, she acted strong. Raymond guessed that she didn't leave just now because she was afraid that Augustine would look for her and catch her. So, she had been hiding somewhere at the entrance of the hotel and dared not come out until she saw Raymond.

Raymond had guessed it right.

Thinking of this, Raymond said to the driver, "Drive!"

"Yes!"

The fear Veronica experienced in the hotel didn't fade away until she got in Raymond's car. Her body gradually stopped trembling. But still, every time she remembered she was almost raped by Augustine, she felt scared.

If Raymond hadn't shown up in time, perhaps, she would have been...

Veronica said to Raymond gratefully, "Thank you for tonight!"

Raymond didn't know what to say.

He didn't think he deserved Veronica's thanks.

"I have done nothing really."

"But if you haven't shown up, I wouldn't have had the chance to escape. So, thank you!" Veronica looked at Raymond with sincerity in her eyes.

The genuine sincerity in her eyes made Raymond feel even more guilty.

In fact, Raymond did not try to save Veronica back then. He had even thought of walking straight past them. He even had the evil thought that Veronica was only getting what she deserved.

Raymond coughed and changed the topic. "After what happened tonight, are you still going to that company tomorrow?"

Veronica said seriously, "Of course. Anyway, I have worked two weeks this month. That is my hard-earned money. I must get it."

Raymond couldn't understand it.

"What if he tries to molest you again?"

Veronica frowned. "I'll go there during the day. He wouldn't dare to do anything in broad daylight, would he?"

"You think too kindly of people."

Veronica said carelessly, "Tomorrow, I will take my pepper spray with me. If he dares to do anything, I will spray him with it until he knows I'm not someone he could mess with." Raymond was speechless.

Veronica's way of thinking was so naive. It was exactly her naivete that made her get Augustine's attention and almost got her raped.

Then, neither of the two spoke again.

The heat in the car drove away the coldness of the autumn night and gradually warmed Veronica's body, which had been in the cold air outside the hotel for half an hour. What was more, music was flowing in the car. Veronica soon felt sleepy.

Veronica fell asleep before the car arrived at the house.

The car suddenly took a turn, and Veronica's head was thrown to Raymond's shoulder.

Veronica looked exhausted, and Raymond wanted to push her head away. But he couldn't bring himself to do so when he thought of what she had suffered tonight.

The next morning, Veronica woke up early in the morning and started cleaning the villa.

After cleaning the villa, she rushed to the translation company.

To Veronica's surprise, Augustine did not make things difficult for her after she arrived at the company. Augustine accepted her resignation, treated her respectfully, and had the finance department give her every cent of her salary.This belongs © NôvelDra/ma.Org.

Veronica was still confused after she got out of the company.

Yesterday, she rejected Augustine and even hit him. But Augustine didn't give her a hard time.

What a miracle.
