174 Blood by Blood

Veronica woke up from Tony's sweet kisses. No one ever does that but him. She open her eyes and he smile so beautifully. He look to her more and mutter something but her head was lightweight.

"Hmm?"

"Are every woman like that? Or I just notice it now?"

"What?" She murmur and rubbed her eyes as she glance at the clock.

"Beautiful." He spread her legs and wrapped his arms around her and pull her closer to him.

"What are you talking about?" She asked as he wrapped his arms around her and look into her face more.

"What I meant was I want to wake up every day and wait for you to open your eyes… and kiss you like this…" He kiss her mouth passionately. "And make love to you all day and night."

"Yeah… we can do that when we have time but now." She glance at the clock. "I will be late." She caress his handsome face. If she could also wake up like this by his side every day.

He press his lips on her forehead hard for few seconds and then both of them take a shower and get ready for their work. As usual, Tony would drive her to office and give her a sweet kiss. As soon as Veronica arrive in her office room and started doing her daily task, her phone rings and it was Sabrina. She answer it casually like she wasn't talking to the boss.

"Hey!"

"Let's meet at the bubble tea shop later after your work. I'll send you the address."

"Okay. Got it." She hang up and went back to her work casually. Then unexpectedly, she was called to the office.

Francisco was flipping on the papers and then stare long at the photos that was captured few years ago. It was the immigration file of Vanessa his daughter. She was adopted by a couple who named her Veronica Masen. Now he understood why she was so familiar.

"Call Veronica here."

He was surely a lucky man. It is now according to her plan. Soon, the whole empire that the old man gave to his granddaughter will be his soon. He have to prepare a party for her. The report said that she got into an accident and had amnesia. There's a complete medical report of her.

Sylvia nodded and hesitated for a while. She didn't want anyone to have Francisco's attention but her. But he was so indomitable to find his legitimate child. And she's just near. She was just next door.

Francisco now remember how his deceased wife look like. She was so beautiful that every man would have her. He play on her heart and make her pregnant so she wouldn't resist him anymore. Few nights of coaxing her and making her fall in love with him through bed was all worth it. They have a beautiful daughter. But he wished that it was a son instead.

Good thing that the old man doted on the granddaughter and would give everything to her. Even the empire. An assassin organization. While she's growing up, he watch as the old man, Elder Calvin Ivanov purely a Russian dotes on her. His wife was a pure Filipina who died on giving birth to Guinevere Ivanov, his legal wife.

Veronica was so curious as she enter the door and fix her eyeglasses.

"Vanessa." He mutter as he look up at her lovingly like a father would do. Deep inside Veronica was raging and wanted to jump unto him and break his neck. But breaking his neck was too easy, she has to see him get tortured by Sabrina.

"Sir?" She asked. Francisco hold himself for a while.

"I'm sorry. You remind me of my daughter so much."

Veronica look puzzled like everyone would do. She smile a little.

"Sylvia where are we having our lunch?" Francisco asked Sylvia who smile. Acting like it was all nothing. She was insecure of Veronica slash Vanessa who is her lover's daughter.

"I am still choosing to pick the best restaurant."

"Good." Francisco said. "So is there any restaurant you would like to suggest?"

Veronica thought for a while. This is it. Just as they expected. Francisco would try to look good to her. Since she acted like she have no idea. So she thought of the bar that Sabrina would suggest. She told them the restaurant that's just nearby, with great service, good quality of food and real expensive.

"Let's reserve a table there." Francisco told Sylvia.

"Is there a celebration?" She asked suddenly. Francisco smiled.

"There will be. You helped us to court Lawson's and our sales is getting to the top rank."

"It's nothing Sir. And about Lawson's. I have nothing to do with it."

"You can say that."

Veronica soon excuses herself to the bathroom where she clenches her fist and almost punch the mirror. But then she laugh and since it's a single bathroom only meant for her and Sylvia, no one could hear her. Sylvia rarely uses it since she's always in the President's bathroom and fuck with him.

"Oh, well… you are such a genius…" She told herself and then she washes her face to calm herself. Wipe it and start redoing her little make up.

She texted Sabrina and delete her message as soon as possible. She then receive a message from Tony.

"Just thinking of you having babies." She reply him soon.

"Stop talking nonsense." Then she texted again. "I'll be late. Don't wait for me."

The lunch was a torture to her. She tried to be casual and be professional in front of her bosses. She eat a little and Francisco notice it.

"You said the food here is delicious. Why aren't you eating? Don't you like it?" Francisco asked out of concern. She was surprised.

"Uhm, no. I like it. I think I am not just having the appetite to eat a lot." She smile a little.

"Are you trying to lose weight? Tony don't like you to gain weight?"

"No." She shook her head. "He doesn't really care about me gaining weight. The food is great." She said and eat a little more.

Soon, the lunch was done and she excused herself to the bathroom and starts vomiting. She had ingestion because of Francisco. Her bastard father that she wants to kill. Her heart was racing and pounding in anger. But she calm herself. It took her few minutes.
