Chapter 37
Terry’s words never left my mind, he spoke about being
spoke about being visited by Veronica who told him things about Ansa
So it wasn’t enough for her to spy on me, she now visits people’s houses to keep them away. What a total paych.
1 knew I went a bit overboard while speaking to Terry but he deserved it. He acted like he had rights over her and they weren’t even dating. I had to let him know that he had no rights over her and he needed to pipe down fut Ana was pissed by my words.
She was pissed anil I felt bad for making her feel that way, just when we were starting to get along. Terry showed up and ruined the moment
“Hey, houry. You’re finally home. You’re hand to see these days” Veronics walked towards me, beaming with smiles but I was in no mood to simple at her when she cooked up trouble at my bark
“Is there something you need to tell me?” I asked, not wanting to cut straight to the point.
“Uhh, something like what?” Her eyeballs moved from side to side as she feigned ignorance,
“You want to tell me why you went to Terry’s house in the middle of the night and what you went to discuss with him?” Lasked, not wanting to play games with her
She looked shocked by my question and tried to keep composure but she failed terribly at it
“What are you following me! She asked with a burt voice but I k
knew the game she wanted to play.
She wanted to make this about her so I would be occupied with explaining myself to her and forget her crazy act.
“Don’t make this about you Veronica, answer my question and don’t try to dodge it,” I said with a stern voice.
My face was masked with anger.
“How about you tell me why you were so close to Ana at the conference, you’ve been taking her on dates as well but you left me all at home with the excuse of being busy while you flaunt your ex like she’s a princess.”
The hairs on my neck stood at her words. She caught me right where she wanted me.
How on Mother Earth did she find out that I have been going out with Ana?
Was that the reason why she visited Terry and spewed rubbish concerning Ana to him!
“Was that why you visited Terry by that time of the night?” I asked, still angry by her actions.
She folded her hands under her breast and looked away, avoiding my gaze and questions just like I was avoiding hers.
“I thought you were a lady who carried herself with self–esteem, but you are no different from the desperate harlots in the streets. I’m disappointed. Veronica” I said and made my way to the stairs but she followed behind me.
“You don’t get to say that to me now Quinn. You started it first! Her voice resounded
“Ever since the first day you set your eyes on that bitch, you’ve lost composure and followed her about like her guardian. You are my fance for crying out loud, why don’t you act like it again? She screamed in anger.
Her words struck a cord but I didn’t stop to address her, I knew that I lost it when I saw Ana after three years but the truth was, I was never okay. I acted like her lover but my heart was with Ana since the day she left New York. She just didn’t know this
And fance? I didn’t know I was a fiance to Veronica
We’ve been seeing each other for four years now but I haven’t proposed to her yet — I just couldn’t with the thought of Ana being out there.
So I had no idea where she got the idea that we were engaged.
Anyway, that wasn’t the most pressing issue right now.
“I only reconnected with Ana who happened to be my partner at work. That is all there is but you keep making a big deal out of it. The dinner we had was after the conference we were both famished and decided to take a bite at the Twenty–four hour’s restaurant”
“What about the way you look at her Quinn? How do you explain that? I see the way you look at her, her body, her curves, her face, it’s like you want to get in between her legs that instant. How do you explain that huh? She thundered, resting her hips on the dressing table while I pulled my
clothes

“Aita’s a business partner and just like I said before, yonder making up things in your head and seeing them for what they’re not. Lined to think you were knowledgeable but lui convinced that Ana is a better version of you. You should learn from her,” I said, intentionally getting her passes:
