Veronica: CEO's Underworld Queen

'Daddeh, I want cheese kimbap!' Baelfair who fell asleep earlier instantly woke up after probably smelling the palatable scent of korean foods inside the Korean restaurant they entered. Rawlf was hoping to have their family lunch on a luxurious and starred restaurant but Veronica and Baelfire both insisted they'd go to a Korean restaurant as Baelfire was craving for a ramyun and Veronica for tteokboki. And well, he realized that the choice was perfect because it seems like his family is a big fan of Korean cuisine.

Veronica also decided that they'd rather have samgyupsal, basically, their lunch was very heavy. Secretary Ryan and Dimitri were with them who earlier tried their best to decline but well, their kind lady boss was insistent that even their King take it on himself to invite them with them. Edward was supposed to come along but had a last minute changed because the young man was off somewhere and wherever is that, Veronica could only hope her younger brother won't bring her and Rawlf trouble

It's not really that awkward as the two men were eating on a different table just across the the family and they're also having what the family have.

'Fair, chew the meat very well.' They heard their lady boss talking to their marshmallow young miss. Baelfair was certainly not how one would expect behaving how she behaves as of the moment. Being used to western utensils, she's picking up the cooked meat with a fork and kept on putting meat on her already full mouth.

'Fire, easy with the ramyun. You might choke on it.' Veronica wiped Baelfire's mouth with the table napkin after seeing there were sone streak of soup on the side of his mouth. After making sure that their cubs were settled with their foods, Veronica turned to Rawlf.

'Why are you not starting yet?' Veronica frowned after seeing her man's bowl still filled with rice and the meat she put earlier on top of it was still untouched.

'Let's eat together.' The man winked at her.

Veronica could only sighed and add more meat on Rawlf's bowl while Secretary Ryan and Dimitri both thought, 'The King is truly whipped.'

....

After their lunch, the family took a moment to have their food digested and then strolled around to look for the necessities of their cubs. They were able to shop around free from being disturbed by anyone, thank you to the mall's strict rule, although that doesn't mean they were free from being stared up by other people. Both by those who can recognized Rawlf Sy or not, the family never failed to take the attention of everyone else.

'I honestly thought that what Madame Sy claimed last time was just a bluff. Now we're both seeing the truth ourselves although this truth is kind of too much.' An old man with grayish hair said while sipping on his coffee.

'Agreed. Who would have thought that the man already has his successors, two at that, and the woman he's with emits this kind of formidable aura in her.' The man's friend who was a bald one (due to age) replied then continued with reading the newspaper. Both men were retired military generals and for men of their status, Haohua mall is a perfect place for them to leisure around and not being worried of the general public because of the mall's rule of strictly, 'no bothering of others'.

'I can only wait for the other side to take a move. This news will surely spread like wildfire. If I don't quite knew Rawlf Sy well enough, I'm almost to think that he was stupid by showing off his family to public which will endanger their safety, worst, their lives. But who knows though, we're talking about Rawlf Sy here.'

The bald old man nodded his head. 'True. Who knows. It might just be his blazing warning sign and the other side would be stupid if they even try to disregard it and make a move against the woman and the children.'

'How about we take a bet on that, kumpare?' The gray haired man challenged his long time friend with mirth in his eyes.

The bald man chuckled with the same mirth in his eyes. 'Depends if our thoughts' the exact opposite of each other kumpare. I believe the other side would strike.'

'Then we should find another party, kumpare. Because I believe the other side would as well. Because they're indeed stupid.'

Both men laugh loudly, totally amused with the content of their topics. Both men were influential and powerful figures in Country P because of their background and history. Although not as powerful as Rawlf Sy.

'Seeing as we're both in agreement with the stupidity of that old man's other 'family', now should we take a bet of the time frame?' The bald old man said, folding the newspaper then he put on the table.

'A week after.' The grey haired man replied his bet as he smirked.

The bald old man nodded his head. 'Three days from now.'

The grey haired man shook his head in utter amus.e.m.e.nt. 'Between us two, it's you who really believes that the other family is very stupid.'

'If they're not, they could have at least bagged a position in Sy International.'

'Maybe because they're nothing comparable to Rawlf Sy. We both are aware of that man being a genius.'

The bald old man raised his left eyebrow. 'No, they're just plain stupid. But who do you think is most stupid of them all?'

The grey haired man laughed loudly, more than necessary that he was able to attract the attention of the other elites on another table. Then he came forward, close enough to whisper something on his dear old friend who also laugh loudly together with him after hearing what his friend whispered.

In his thoughts, indeed, they're best of friends because even their thoughts were almost alike. True to hi friends words, the most stupid of them all is no other than Rawlf Sy's father, Robert Sy. The man who messed up his used to be peaceful life by taking as many mistresses as he wanted and now, after realizing the chaos of his actions has yielded, decided to live somewhere on a secluded mountainous region with his tiger pet.
