Chapter 492


    Chapter 492 Veronica’s Masochism


    “Please, please, have a seat.” Patrick looked like a servant weing his master. Quest pulled a face


    and pointed at Veronica. He asked, “Is she an employee here? She insulted a client. She has no


    manners at all. I demand an exnation.”


    Patrick knew what had happened. Someone told him earlier. He nced at Veronica and frowned


    deeply. Now he thought Veronica was nothing but trouble.


    “No wonder she insulted the client. So, she used to be a model.” “And Mrs. Kings’ god-granddaughter


    too. Probably got kicked out or something.”


    “She’s a scheming woman. She’s probably trying to marry Matthew too. Just being a god-granddaughter


    isn’t enough for her.” “She’s pretty. Has that mature woman feel. And she has that good vibe too. So,


    she’s a good fit as a model.”


    “As if. She looks like a subus out for someone’s money.”


    …


    The salespeople were whispering among themselves, though it was loud enough for Veronica to hear.


    Patrick was furious due to the turn of events. If looks could kill, he would have murdered Veronica on the


    spot. However, when he turned to Quest again, he was all smiles. “Sorry, Mr. Lemilo. She’s a newbie.


    She doesn’t know the rules well.” He roared at Veronica, “Don’t just stand there! Apologize!”


    He wanted to get into Veronica’s pants and just got some money from Kelly. It would be embarrassing for


    him if he had to fire her now, or he wouldn’t have tried to appease Quest.


    Veronica knew Quest was trying to bring her down, but she needed this job. She had to apologize, even


    though she didn’t want to. “Of course, Mr. Lemilo. It’s my fault for insulting her. Sorry, Mia. I was being


    presumptuous. I thought you were going to pay for it yourself. But if it’s your brother paying for it, then, of


    course, he’ll buy the million-dor car. After all…” She drawled, “We can see how much he loves you.”


    She was pushing them into a corner. Veronica apologized to them and praised Quest for spoiling his


    sugar baby. If he ended up buying the cheaper car, that would only mean he didn’t love her enough.


    Mia had no idea what Veronica was trying to do, but she yed along. “Of course. Quest is nice to me.


    He doesn’t care about cheap cars either. Only the best gets his interest.”


    Mia was young, beautiful, and a popr model. Of course, she was aiming to reach greater heights, or


    she wouldn’t have dated Quest. She would only get the most expensive things. She might have a grudge


    against Veronica, but all she wanted now was to get something from Quest. After considering her


    options, she put her grievance aside and said, “Well, you did apologize. I suppose I can let you—”


    “No!” Quest was here to humiliate Veronica. Therefore, he wouldn’t let it go that easily as he rudely


    pointed at her face. “You insulted my sister, and that means you insulted me! So, you either grovel before


    me, or you p yourself. Or I’ll make you pay, you hear?”


    “So, you’re saying you’ll buy the car if I just p myself, are you? And you’ll give all themission to


    me?” she asked him, much to everyone’s surprise. They thought she would be mad about it.


    Her words stupefied everyone. They never thought Veronica would go so far just to sell a car.


    “Just some ps? No. I’ll record a video while you p yourself.” Quest kept pushing it.


    Everyone kept quiet and watched the show unfurl.


    Mia knew Quest was getting back at her, and he promised he would buy the car if Veronica would p


    herself. Naturally, she was more than happy to witness this.


    “Sure. How many ps? How far should I go before you’re satisfied?” she asked calmly.


    “When your face is swollen whole.” He sneered darkly.


    Veronica took her phone out and turned the camera on. Finally, she handed it to Hanson and instructed,


    “Record it for me.”


    Hanson took it dumbly, and his jaw dropped in surprise.


    Mia wouldn’t let this chance pass. She took her phone out and started recording too. I’m going to post


    this to my wall. She stood beside Hanson and started recording.


    “I shouldn’t have said Mia couldn’t afford the million-dor car. That was rude of me, Mr. Lemilo. I


    shouldn’t have looked down on both of you, and I apologize for that. But you promised you’d buy the car


    if I apologize by pping my face until its’ swollen. So don’t go back on your word,” she repeated herself,


    a hint of cunning gleaming in her eyes.


    “I never go back on my word.” Quest straightened his suit out and smirked. He thought a girl like


    Veronica would just stop after a p or two, but he underestimated her.


    She looked up and raised her hand, and then she swung it hard at her cheeks. She pped herself right


    in front of everyone, and the p was audible. Her head turned to the side from the impact.


    The crowd was shocked. They had seen a lot of stuff in their lives, but this was their first time seeing a


    woman torturing herself like that.


    Veronica stuck her thumb out and wiped the blood off the corner of her lips. She rubbed it on her index


    finger, and the crowd saw some crimson liquid spreading across her finger.


    “She’s bleeding? Wow, that’s one tough woman.”


    “God. It’s just one sale. She didn’t have to go so far.”


    “Look at her face. I can see the mark. Oh no, it’s swollen.”


    “My god, it’s really swollen. This is terrifying.”


    …


    Veronica took a tissue out of her pocket and wiped the blood away from her fingers. She looked at


    Quest, a smile curling her lips. “Are you satisfied, Mr. Lemilo?”


    Quest had seen many people in his life, but Veronica was the most formidable woman he had ever seen.


    He felt a little mortified. “I meant you gotta p both sides of your face.” He sneered.


    Mia, who had been delighting herself in this, agreed, “Yeah, that’s what he meant! This is a half-done


    job.” Patrick wasn’t the manager for nothing. He knew these guys were out for Veronica, but he kept


    quiet and let things unfurl.


    “Very well. As you wish.” She brushed her messy fringe as if she didn’t feel the p earlier. Then, a


    momentter, she pped the other cheek as hard as she pped herself the first time. Everyone could


    hear the p, but none spoke. Veronica might be beating herself, but she was standing with her head


    held high.


    Her face was swollen, and blood was trickling down the corner of her lips, but she wasn’t even flinching


    from the pain. Instead, the air around her felt tense and suffocating, as if the sight of her alone struck


    fear in everyone’s hearts.N?velDrama.Org copyrighted ? content.
