A Sweet Night The CEO Loves His Wife Ardently

"Edwin Walker," Raymond said coldly.

Raymond rarely called Edwin's full name. Edwin suddenly became nervous. He knew what Raymond was going to say next. Edwin said anxiously, "Oh, right. My friend said that he saw Rodger, who was beaten by you, show up in a private hospital in Peace City yesterday. Got to go! I have something to do now. See you later."

After that, Edwin hung up the phone. And he blocked Raymond's number.

'I'm safe now. I'll never get any phone calls from Raymond.' Edwin thought.

Raymond did not call Edwin again, but he called Edwin's mother.

"Mrs. Walker, didn't you always want to know where Edwin has been living recently?" Raymond said very politely, "I just got his address. Are you interested in that?"

Next, Raymond called Veronica.

Veronica didn't tell Raymond anything about what had happened recently. Raymond hadn't seen her for two days. He didn't know how she was doing now.

Veronica didn't answer the phone at once.

Someone picked up the phone the third time Raymond called. It was a woman. Her voice was hoarse and nervous. It was not Veronica.

"Put Veronica on the phone!" Raymond said forcefully.

Raymond thought Veronica didn't want to talk to him. So, she asked somebody else to answer the phone for her.

"Mr. Cordova!" Stella held the phone and said seriously, "Aren't you with your fiancée now? Why are you calling Veronica? Veronica has nothing to do with you anymore. Please leave her alone, okay?" Raymond frowned and repeated, "Put Veronica on the phone."

"I'm sorry, but I won't let her answer the phone. And I'd also like to say you already have a fiancée. You should treat your fiancée well. Stop messing with people's feelings. Otherwise, you'll regret it someday." "Ms. Bruno, I don't have a fiancée!" Raymond explained indifferently.

"Lair!" Stella snorted, "The news was suppressed very quickly. But we heard that. The news reports were very clear. Do you still want to deny it?"

Stella kept on talking.

"It was true that you helped Veronica during her most difficult time. But she had saved your fiancée. If you save a dog in the street, he will bark at you to show appreciation. A smart man like you should be even more grateful."

"Veronica was badly injured to save your fiancée. She almost lost her life. We don't want your thanks. But would you please leave her alone? If you can stop calling Veronica, then we will appreciate it." Raymond had been waiting for Stella to finish her sentence.

He couldn't help but frown when he heard Veronica had almost lost her life to save Shirley.

"Is she with you now?" Raymond asked again.

Stella was annoyed. "Mr. Cordova, did you not just hear me? I'm telling you. I won't let Veronica answer the phone. Give up."

Stella did not see Veronica at home when Raymond was speaking.

Stella's eyes swept around the living room. Usually, Veronica would sit on the sofa and practice her pronunciation. But today, Stella didn't see anyone. She looked into the bedroom. Veronica was not in the bedroom, either.

It was late at night. And Veronica didn't bring her phone. Where could she go?

Stella was wondering. Raymond said one more time, "Put Veronica on the phone."

Stella was annoyed. She was about to hang up. Suddenly, she heard a sudden, hurried knock at the door.

Stella opened the door while she was hanging up the phone. But she accidentally put it on speaker.

Stella's neighbor stood outside the door. He was a shy man. Stella was angry after talking with Raymond on the phone. And her neighbor stood in front of the door and did not say anything. Stella shouted impatiently, "What do you want?"

The man looked behind her. "The girl who lives with you, is she home?"

"Veronica?" Stella looked at him in confusion. "Did she just go out?"

The man became even more anxious. He rubbed his hands nervously. "Not long ago, someone... Someone pointed a knife at me and asked me to ... call Veronica out."

"What?" Stella was so shocked that her eyes popped out of her head. She asked anxiously, "What happened then?"

"Well... After, after... Veronica came out, two... Two people rushed out, and... They... They..."

Stella was extremely anxious when he heard the man's words. "What happened? Say it!"

"I saw them take her into the elevator from the peephole," said the man. He told Stella everything he saw.

Just then, Raymond's cold and deep voice came from the phone in Stella's hand. "How long has it been since Veronica was taken away?"

Stella and the man were stunned.

Stella frowned and looked at the phone. Didn't she just hang up? Where did Raymond's voice come from?

The man thought for a moment before answering, "About... About ten minutes ago."

"Any distinguishing features of the men who took her?"

"Oh, right. There was a black snake on the back of their hands."

The black snake was the symbol of the Black Snake Gang.

"Black Snake Gang!" Raymond said in a low voice.

The neighbor immediately shouted, "Yes, yes, yes. I heard the man say that. He said that they were from the Black Snake Gang. The men said that they could kill me with their bare hands. They asked me not to move. Otherwise, I would die."Content protected by Nôv/el(D)rama.Org.

In the beginning, the neighbor's voice was very loud. After being glared at by Stella, his voice immediately weakened.

The neighbor smiled embarrassedly and walked back to his room.

Stella didn't want to know why her neighbor was safe now. She just wanted to know that Veronica was safe.

"Mr. Cordova, do you know where Veronica was taken?" Stella immediately asked Raymond on the other side of the line. Raymond did not answer Stella. He hung up the phone directly.

Stella opened her eyes widely. She stared at the phone and called Raymond back. But the line was busy.

Raymond put away his phone. He looked cold and distant. He said icily, "Devin, go to the Southview." "Yes, sir!"
