Veronica ran back to Ste''s room.
On the way back to Ste''s room, Veronica didn''t dare to look back. When she ran to Ste''s room, she was still panting heavily.
Ste was shocked when she saw Veronica running in a panic. She nervously held Veronica''s hand. "Veronica, what''s wrong with you? Why do you look like evil ghosts are chasing you?"
"Well, I''m fine." Veronica looked at Stefortingly. "By the way, I brought your clothes over."
Veronica handed the clothes in her hand to Ste.
"Thank you, Veronica!"
"Change your clothes. I''ll go to the door to keep a lookout for you!" Veronica said.
"Alright."
Coming out of Ste''s room, Veronica gradually calmed her breathing.
When she faced Raymond just now, she was scared out.
She could feel that when she returned to the Cordova''s vi, Raymond would not let her off easily.
It was all thanks to Raymond that she was able to save Ste in time yesterday. She was also very grateful to him. However, when she saw him, she could not say a single word of gratitude. All she said were some sharp words.
Forget about it.
She didn''t want to think about this anymore. She was hired by Raymond. After she finished work in the Cordova''s house for three months, she would leave the Cordova''s house. In the future, they would have nothing to do with each other. Thus, she didn''t need to care so much.
After Ste changed her clothes, a servant from the Walker family came to call Veronica and Ste for breakfast.
As guests, Veronica and Ste naturally wouldn''t refuse the host''s invitation. After washing up, they followed the servant to the dining room.Content rights by N?velDr//ama.Org.
When Veronica and Ste arrived at the dining room, Edwin and Raymond were already there.
After the servant brought Veronica and Ste to the dining room, he left.
When Veronica saw Raymond, she frowned. When Ste saw Edwin in the dining room, her expression changed and she subconsciously hid behind Veronica.
Last night, when Ste was lying on the bed, Edwin said, "I am the second son of the Walker family. There are so many women outside that I can pick up. Why would I choose such an ugly woman with a poor figure? Even if I am lecherous, I will never like such a woman." Thus, Ste did not have a good impression of Edwin.
Edwin looked up and saw Veronica and Ste. Just as he was about to speak, his gaze fell on Ste''s face and he froze.
Last night, Ste had been drugged and hid in the bathroom. She was dirty all over, looking gloomy and worn.
Ste, who had washed up, naturally showed her original appearance.
Ste was also a beauty. Although she wasn''t as beautiful as Veronica, she was prettier than so many women.
Edwin suddenly felt the hostility in Ste''s eyes when he stared at her. Edwin suddenly remembered what he had said to Ste.
He felt a little awkward.
Seeing Veronica and Ste standing outside the door, Edwin hurriedly stood up.
"Two beauties, pleasee in!"
Edwin called out to them enthusiastically.
Veronica looked at Edwin coldly. "Sir, didn''t you sayst night that even if you were lecherous, you wouldn''t like us? I think we shouldn''t go in to avoid dirtying your eyes." Veronica coldly nced at Raymond, and then said, "I''m not too hungry this morning. Ste, let''s leave this ce first."
"Stop!"
The person who spoke was Raymond.
Veronica turned around angrily.
"Mr. Cordova, is there anything else?"
"Come in, sit down and eat."
"No!" Veronica mocked. "I''m afraid that after I sit down, you will ask us for a breakfast fee."
Raymond suddenly lowered his head and chuckled.
"Ms. Luke, if you didn''t remind me, I would have forgotten about it," Raymond smiled at Veronica and said. "I think you should know how expensive the Walker''s manor here is." Veronica stared vigntly at Raymond''s face and asked with a frown, "What do you want to say?"
Raymond spoke unhurriedly, "In the same location, a hotel with the same specifications would cost at least a thousand a night."
Veronica was speechless.
"Of course," Raymond added. "One thousand a person. You two should pay at least two thousand."
Veronica kept silent.
Ste was also lost for words.
Edwin opened his mouth and quickly said, "No need. You just stayed for a night. You don''t need to pay for it!"
Raymond sneered in a deep voice, "The Walker family is not a charity organization. If this matter were to spread out, wouldn''t many people deliberatelye to ckmail you? If everyone came to stay for a night, wouldn''t the manor be a free hotel?"
Edwin didn''t know what to say.
What Raymond said seemed to make sense, but Edwin also felt that it was not very good to ask them to pay for it.
"Anyway, this is my home. I said no..."
Without waiting for Edwin to finish, Raymond looked coldly at Veronica and Ste.
"You can sit down and eat with us. Of course, you don''t have to pay for the cost of staying for the night. However, if you leave now, we have to settle the score!"
Veronica and Ste clenched their fists in anger.
What Raymond had just said was already a humiliation to them.
What was the difference between them and the barmaids if they sat down and had breakfast with Raymond and Edwin?
Veronica took out 2,000 from her wallet, walked into the dining room, and mmed the money on the table.
After putting the money on the table, Veronica looked at Raymond and Edwin angrily.
"Sir, this is two thousand. Can we go now?"
Raymond expressionlessly reached out and pushed the money in front of Edwin.
"Edwin, count the money. Don''t miscount."
Edwin was speechless.
Hearing Raymond''s words, Veronica became more furious. Her cold gaze directly fell on Edwin. "Mr. Walker, please count the money clearly. Then it will be easier for us to leave." Edwin was embarrassed.
Why were they all staring at him? He wasn''t the one who asked for the money!
Feeling Raymond''s and Veronica''s powerful vibe, Edwin could only shrink back and count the money one by one in front of them.
That was right! Two thousand!
