After their hearty early dinner, Rawlf and Veronica decided to stroll around the shopping complex nearby the restaurant.
The twins were excited to be walking around so their parents let them.
Later, Fair is already munching from a sweetcorn she had asked her parents to buy. They were about to leave the shopping center when they heard someone called Rawlf's name.
When they looked in the direction of the person calling, Veronica saw it was Katarina.
She was planning to ask Rawlf about the woman when they reached home, but once again, they coincidentally met her.
"I was surprised to see you here!" Katarina greeted Rawlf, she then turned to Veronica,
"It's nice to see you once again, Miss Wang." Her eyes moved from Veronica to the twins who were sandwiched between Rawlf and Veronica.
Her eyes turned bright as she stared at the twins. Veronica observed her further and became confused. 'Why is it that the woman looks like she adores the twins?'
"These lovely kids are?"
"My and Veronica's kids. We're going ahead first, Miss Cang", Rawlf chose to be polite with Katarina not because he needs to show her face in public but because her father, President Cang was somehow, could be considered a friend.
"Bid Miss Cang goodbye first Fire, Fair?" Veronica urged the twins.
"Bye Miss Cang!" The twins both said at the same time and right away turned their backs as if not even the slightest interest in this beautiful woman.
"Daddeh!! Hug!" Baelfair acts spoiled and Rawlf gets down on one knee to embrace his princess. He stood up carrying Baelfair and gently pulled Fire's hand to hold him. He just made being a fatherhood perfect for a man.
Veronica's eyes softened looking at her man and their children. "We'll go ahead, Miss Cang."
She nodded to the woman and was about to turn around to follow her family when Katarina
stopped her.
"It's Katarina. You can call me Katarina. In return, may I call you Veronica?" Katarina sounds sincerely friendly.
"It's no problem, Katarina. We'll go ahead, nice meeting you." Veronica decided to exchange words with the woman.
"You have lovely kids." Katarina smiled. The regret in her voice didn't pass Veronica's observation.
"Thanks Katarina. Indeed they are." Veronica once again nodded her head towards the woman and finally turned back to follow her family who were already near the exit of the shopping center.
Rawlf is obviously stating his relationship with Katarina as not acquainted by going ahead as if he's not familiar with her, which is in fact, true.
He's only familiar with President Cang but with Katarina, despite the President's efforts to match his daughter with him, it was all futile.
Rawlf had long exited the shopping center while Katarina remained rooted. Her eyes became brighter as if lost in happy thoughts.
Her lips curved in a smile. "Lovely kids." She uttered and moved to walk out of the exit as well.
Back at their mansion, after helping the twins with washing, Veronica urged each of them to sleep, after fixing them on each of their own beds, she went out of their room.
Veronica was outside the master bedroom's door when she halted. Outside the door was a sticky note.
"Come to the top floor."
Her brows furrowed and pulled the note from the door. It's true that she had been staying at the Dragon mansion for sometime now but she had yet to discover the top floor because of her busyness.
So, she had to find her way up.
After some time, she finally located the stairs directing to the top floor. What surprised Veronica was the red rose petals spread on each stair case.
"What the hell is going on with this guy?" Veronica murmured as she walked her way up. When she was near the door, she halted.
She could hear a faint melodious sound coming from the other door.
When she opened the door, the sound coming from the piano was clearer. Yes, it's a live piano play!
And to Veronica's surprise, the man playing the piano is none other than Rawlf!
