Veronica heard a exasperated sigh from Lucinda before she said, "Dad had invited Cole Parker to my engagement party.."

"What?? Are you serious?" Veronica asked, being irked with the sudden revelation.

Reuben again turned his face towards Veronica mouthing to her, 'What happened?'

Veronica read his lips and mouthed back, 'I will tell you later.'

Nodding his head at her, Reuben busied himself in his phone again while Veronica became confused about few things.

"Yes. I'm deadly serious. Why would I joke about a man whom I don't even know or more like I hate?" Lucinda asked.

Sighing at the news, Veronica said, "Yeah.. That's also right. But the question is why did Uncle suddenly invite Cole Parker in your engagement party? Most importantly, how did they get to know each other?"

Lucinda heard the question and immediately replied, "Dad visited uncle Lopez today at his office and at the same moment Cole had arrived with a proposal idea regarding the fashion showroom and it seemed to be a great idea..

Both Dad and Uncle got very much impressed by him and as a result, uncle accepted the proposal and my Dad invited him to the party."

"Hmmm…. So this is what had happened. If both of our fathers were really impressed by him, that's mean Cole is indeed a good communicator and businessman." Veronica said.

"Seems like so... But the problem is how Myra would feel in the presence of Cole. Oh! I forgot to tell you one more thing. Dad even invited that Alonzo also. I don't know what suddenly happened to Dad that he is choosing all the wrong guys…

Thankfully, I already have a boyfriend who is soon going to be my fiance, my Henry. Otherwise, I don't know if Dad would bring another stupid guy as a candidate of my future husband." Lucinda joked in between her serious talks.

*Hahaha*

As Lucinda half joked, Veronica busted in laughter on the other side. She never imagined that Lucinda would pick out such kind of topic on a fun basis..

"Gosh Lucy!! You're so savage. Don't worry about your future husband as the place had already gotten booked by Henry. Moreover, he wouldn't ever allow anyone to even touch the position of your boyfriend...so husband is totally out of the option." Veronica joked back.

"Yeah… right." Lucinda said smilingly, remembering her boyfriend.

"By the way… On a serious note, you told me that Alonzo will also attend the party but you don't have to worry about him. I don't give him a single damn shit so there is nothing to become tensed. It's true that he was once my friend but not anymore. Now, I hate him with all my guts...

But the question is about Myra. Really I don't know how she will react when she'd see him. But somehow I think it's a good thing that Cole will also be attending the party." Veronica said thinking about something in her head.

Lucinda became bemused with the thought of something good about Cole's presence but couldn't find any answer about it.

So she directly asked, "How can it be good with Cole taking part in the party?"

"Well…about that I'm not completely sure if Myra could handle him properly and be neutral with his presence without showing any kind of feelings like hurt and betrayal on her face…

But we all, including Myra herself know that she has to move on one day or another. She can't ruin her life just being conscious about Cole. So it's a good chance for her to recover from her past when we all will be with her...

At least, it's better than facing Cole alone without anyone's presence. It would be more difficult for her to handle the matter without our support, being all lonely.." Veronica described Lucinda about the good and bad consequences of Cole joining them on Thursday.

Lucinda couldn't believe that Veronica could come out with something positive about this matter...

She was well aware about Veronica's sharp brain which worked in a rocket like speed but she never thought of bringing out such an amazing idea out of this serious matter.

"Actually, you're very much accurate on whatever you said. Now that you made such a good suggestion, I think it'd not be any big problem for Myra too after she got to know about this...

After all, we are always with her to support and protect her from evil bitches like Regina and bastards like Cole.." Lucinda muttered.

"I know that, right? But let's not inform Myra about Cole right now...otherwise she will be worried without any particular reasons. We can tell her about this on the morning of your engagement." Veronica said.

"I was about to say the same.." Lucinda laughed, making Veronica giggle at her best friend.

After hanging up the call, Veronica looked at Reuben who was looking at her with so much admiration in his eyes that she could feel the overflow of her emotions in her heart.

"I'm so much proud of you, Ica..." Reuben said embracing her into a tight yet comforting hug.

"Proud about what?" Veronica asked.

"Proud about everything you do. I heard your conversation with Lucy and the advice you had given, is really worthy of a good praise." Reuben mumbled as he kissed on her forehead.

Veronica smiled in his embrace and said, "That's because you're always there to love and cherish me.."

"So Alonzo is also coming. But what about that fiance of his? I mean the lady who had painted her face with all kind of colours on the shopping day.." Reuben said scrunching his nose remembering her.

"Her name is Regina and I think she'd also come as Cole is her brother." Veronica said.

"Yeah.. whatever. I don't know how that Cole handles her. If I had a sister like that I'd surely give her a piece of taste of my angry mind." Reuben scowled in distaste at the mention of Regina.

Veronica laughed at Reuben's expression which was nothing less funnier than a joker's hilarious acts which was shown only in circus and said, "Now that you bring up this, I suddenly remembered something funny..."
