"Guys, I'm going to call Reuben now. He is already with Neil and Henry, so they will come together. Myra I'll tell my driver to send you back first."

Hearing that Reuben was coming to pick Veronica up, Regina felt her mood lifted up suddenly...

She didn't want to miss the chance to meet Reuben so she said immediately, "Ah! You don't have to tell your driver to drop us. I'm calling my brother Cole to pick us up as he had already told me before that he had not much work at afternoon. Like this, you all will also be able to meet him..."

Myra was about to protest not to call Cole, but Lucinda just caught her hand and squeezed it under the table to stop her from doing so as they also really wanted meet that Cole Parker who broke their new friend's heart for some stupid misunderstandings..

Veronica dialed Reuben's number and two rings later, he picked up the call, "Yes babe.."

"Honey.. We're done with our shopping and right now waiting for our order at the food court...

You along with Neil and Henry come here to pick us up. Till then we'll be done with our yummy lunch." Veronica said in the phone.

Reuben chuckled and said, "Okay. Coming in half an hour babe. Till then, fill your stomach with tasty foods."

Veronica smiled and said, "Okay bye... Our lunch has already arrived."

Regina was already done with informing Cole and watching Veronica talking with Reuben so sweetly which made her very envious.

"So what did your brother say? Is he coming to pick you both up?" Willa asked, raising her brows up.

"He said he will be coming here in thirty minutes." Regina said, making Myra's palm to sweat profusely.

The girls nodded and started eating their lunch...

On the other side, when Regina called Cole, he just finished one meeting with an investor of him along with Alonzo.

"Can you come to the mall to pick us up?" Regina asked.

"Okay. Send me the address." Cole said.

Alonzo looked at Cole when he just ended the call for which Cole asked him, "I'm going to pick up Regina from the shopping mall. Are you coming with me?"

"No... I have some other dealings to handle. Can you please also drop Myra on the way to your hotel?" Alonzo asked.

Cole's eyes brightened when he heard such an amazing offer which he didn't want to refuse at all. Though Myra was not talking to him but at least he would be able to see her face...

That's why agree at once, "Of course. That's not a big thing to ask. But yeah... Please find a nice apartment for me. You know...budget is not a matter for me."

Alonzo nodded his head and replied, "Don't worry. I already asked Bill for it and he already started searching for a good place."

Cole nodded and left the place after bidding goodbye to Alonzo...

Lopez Mansion...

After hanging up the call, Reuben informed everyone, "We have to leave now. Ica called me to inform that they are already done with their shopping and now having their late lunch."

The elders agreed with him and said, "Okay. You guys drive safe. And don't worry we'll handle everything about the guests. And you just send the designs of the rings."

Reuben smiled at them before looking at his cousin brother as he asked, "Are you coming with us to the mall or going back home?"

Louis stared at his brother for few seconds and snorted, "You want me to go with you guys so that I can eat free dogfood? Nahh...

Not possible.!!!

I'm not going anywhere from here...not even to my home. I'm going to stay here till night so that I can eat Aunt's tasty homemade dinner if my dear aunties doesn't have any problem with it."

Mrs. Lopez immediately said, "What problem I can have with you staying here? Even I'll be more than happy if you have dinner here for tonight. Why don't you there boys do one thing??

Bring your girls here along with you from the mall. We all can have dinner together today. And don't forget to fetch Willa too as she doesn't have any boyfriend still."

"Who said Willa doesn't have a boyfriend?" Henry said all of a sudden.

"What!! She has one?" Mrs. Smith asked.

"Ask Neil about it Mom." Reuben replied playfully whereas Neil just glared at him.

"Wait! I can't understand anything." Louis suddenly asked.

"We will tell everything to you later. At first, let us bring the girls back." Henry said.

Reuben also agreed and said before leaving, "Don't forget that you have to keep your mouth shut about the surprise."

"Don't worry son. We're all like the mute monkeys from now on." Mr. Smith assured his son.

Mr. Lopez also agreed and said, "Yeah.. we'll not say anything."

Then father Lopez turned towards his wife and said, "Honey, why don't you call Henry and Neil's parents here as well?"

Mrs. Lopez agreed and said, "Yeah... You are right. It would be better if we all have a small feast together."

The boys just shook their heads and said, "We are leaving then."

After they left, Mrs. Smith said to her best friend, "Come Jessica. Let's prepare for dinner. I'll help you."

As both Mrs. Lopez and Mrs. Smith were also besties, there were no formalities between them.

So Mrs. Lopez agreed with her and said, "Yeah... Let's go. We have lots of things to prepare."

Louis then suddenly spoke out, "Wait for me, dear aunties. This handsome man is there for you to give you guys an awesome helping hand "

"Do you even know how to cook?" Mr. Smith mocked him.

"No uncle. I don't. But I'll learn eventually by helping these two beautiful ladies." Louis replied proudly, making the mothers laugh.

"Come on. Don't waste your time talking with these old man. Let them enjoy their boring business talk while we will teach you cooking." Mrs. Smith said to Louis as she dragged him to the kitchen along with Mrs. Lopez, making the fathers huffed in anger on being called as old men..
