"After the fiasco of Lucy's engagement ends, I'll tell you everything elaborately. Then you have to listen to my full story without losing your patience and any complain. Now I've work to do."
"Okay fine.." Diana said.
Jack hugged Veronica and Lucinda before leaving when Veronica reminded him, "You have to come in the morning first. We have a lot of arrangements to do. I don't want anymore arguments regarding this. Do you get it, bro??"
Lucinda also agreed with her bestie and said, "Yeah.. Niccy is right, Jack. You already missed so many gatherings and meet ups. But this time, I'll not allow you to miss it. After all, it's one of the most special day of my life. Even the boys miss you."
"Fine.. Fine.. I'll come early morning. I really won't give you any chance to complain." Jack said.
"Good boy." Veronica said and ruffled his hair.
"For god's sake Vero. Don't waste my ten minutes of hard work by ruffling my hair. You don't know how much time I spend everyday to set my hair stylishly.
Moreover, don't forget that I'm the elder one between us...not you.." Jack glared at her but it was as fake as the idea of Sun moving around the earth..
Veronica chuckled at him and said, "Okay.. I'm letting you go for today. But you'll not be able to get out of my hand this Thursday. I'll gang up against you with my whole team."
Jack laughed at her and said, "Let's see then. Now bye guys."
Turning towards Myra for the last time, Jack said, "Bye Myra. We'll meet again on the day after tomorrow."
"Yeah bye.. See you soon." Myra said to him with a small smile which was enough to take Jack's breath away from his lungs.
After Jack left with the dress, Diana looked at Veronica and asked hesitatingly, "Vero.. Don't think that I'm blaming you but I'm just curious about something. I was not in my right sense to ask you yesterday...
But now that my mind is clear, a question is disturbing me very much. Why did you hide your true identity from me while studying in city B?"
Veronica knew that this question was about to throw on her anytime so she was already prepared to reply.
But she was uncertain about the fact that why Diana hadn't asked it the moment they had entered her cabin today.
Still she smiled and held her hands before saying, "The one thing I regret the most in my life, is to hide the truth about my identity. It was not only you from whom I've hid everything but I didn't disclose about myself to anyone while living in city B. And that was my biggest mistake…"
"I know that you hid your identity from us but why would it be your biggest mistake? I'm sure there was some reason behind it." Diana said.
"Yeah.. You're right that there were some reasons. Actually I wanted to live my life freely as a normal girl…not like some rich heiress. I wanted to taste the life of a normal college student. However, my one decision led me to many unwanted things…
If I wasn't so much selfish that time then I'd be able to protect you from that Frank and his torture. I could also save Alex from dying.." Veronica sighed at the memory of her dead friend.
Diana couldn't understand the last part and asked, "First if all, it's not your fault about me bearing those tortures. Secondly, who is this Alex now?"
"Well, that's another long story to…"
But before Lucinda could complete her sentence, Myra said, "Alex was my big brother whose existence was totally unknown to me till few weeks ago."
"What do you mean?" Diana questioned.
Veronica then narrated the whole story of Alex and Alonzo to Diana while Lucinda and Myra helped Vero in middle by pointing out those things she missed to tell...
After hearing the whole story, Diana was perplexed about the thought...if this kind of thing was really possible or not.
"I'm sorry to say Myra.. But whatever your brother Alonzo did was extremely wrong. Actually it was a big sin. Though his twin Alex was at fault too but I don't want to comment on a dead person." Diana uttered.
Myra took a long breath and said, "I know... And my brother is repenting on his past actions right now."
Listening to Alonzo repenting on his acts, Veronica just rolled her eyes as she believed that he was not a man to change his personality, at least in this lifetime...
According to Veronica, Alonzo was not a guy who would bow down to his manly ego, specially after learning that he tried to challenge Reuben regarding her..
"Guys.. Let's not talk about these again. It'll just lower our mood." Veronica said to divert them from the topic and as per her plan, the girls started talking about random things...

Love-Paradise…
The same night…
Veronica was putting on her night cream when her phone rang. Seeing that it was Lucinda, her brows furrowed together as she didn't expect her to call her at that time because of their afternoon meet up at Lopez Industries.
"Hey Lucy.. What's up?" Veronica asked sitting beside Reuben who was busy in playing games on his phone.
"Niccy… I've a bad news to tell you." Lucinda said from the other side of the phone.
Veronica's eyebrows arched up and a confusion took over her face as she asked to confirm about what Lucinda just had said, "Bad news??"
Reuben's ear perked up when he heard it and he looked at Veronica questioningly while she just shook her head telling Reuben not to worry and to continue playing his game...
Knowing that, it was nothing bigger as Veronica wasn't that much tensed, Reuben continued with his game.
Veronica heard a exasperated sigh from Lucinda before she said, "Dad had invited Cole Parker to my engagement party.."
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
