Here Comes Veronica (53)

When she heard Shirley's voice, Veronica froze.

Judging from Shirley's tone, it seemed like she knew Raymond.

Raymond knew Shirley.

As Veronica was guessing, she heard Raymond's reply.

"It's you. When did you come back?" His voice was slightly cold.

"This afternoon. Two friends of mine and I are having a meal in another private room. I heard that you are also in this restaurant, and we haven't seen each other for a long time. So, I came over to greet you."

"I see."

Shirley probed, "Are you eating here alone?"

"No, with a friend."

Shirley smiled and said, "I have to return to my private room now. I'm afraid I won't have the time to see your friend. I haven't seen your parents for a long time. If I have time, I will visit them at the Cordova Mansion."

"My parents went abroad to travel. You won't be able to see them for the time being."

Shirley sighed, "That's a pity."

"How long do you plan to stay in Peace City this time?"
