Veronica’s eyes widen and her head quickly turned to April. “Go. I’ll be down shortly after you.” She responds with a nod and followed her assistant out. Cedric was casually leaning on the side of the car with a hand inside the pocket of his pants. His expression looked serious. Must be the reason why Mikaela seemed so rattled. She can’t blame her though, it’s her first day on the job and she already met with this angry-looking Cedric. When their eyes met, the look on his face suddenly turned urgent. Veronica’s heart began to beat fast. What happened? Her gut is telling her that something bad is about to happen. As soon as she’s out of the building, Cedric reached out his arm around Veronica, hugging her in the process. “Why aren’t you answering your phone?” he whispers to her ear.
