Chapter 293 Fear
Veronica was confused about what move she should do next.
After calling the driver, Veronica played with Peter in the house, waiting for the clock to strike at exactly nine in the evening.
What Veronica didn't know is that the place she was staying in was surrounded by people.
A car appeared silently in the clearing below.
"Mom, I want to play hide and seek!" Lily was holding on to Veronica's leg, dangling her pigtails.
Peter climbed onto Veronica's shoulder. "I want to play, too!"
Julie, Josh and Daniel raised their hands innocently. "Mom, hide and seek!"
Veronica looked the six children and it was clear that they weren't sleepy at all.
Looking at the approaching departure time, Veronica decided to play hide and seek with them. "Alright, fine." She laughed.
"One!"
"Ah!" The children immediately ran around, walking around happily and trying to find somewhere to hide.
Veronica looked at the small children rolling around and she couldn't help but laugh. Covering his eyes, she counted once again. "Two, three, four..."
Peter opened the locker and got in.
"Five, six..."
Cathy huddled in the corner holding the pillow, her body almost completely hidden.
Julie and Josh hid in the corner of the sofa. Their heads were facing inside the corner, revealing their round little butts.
"Seven, eight, nine. "
Meanwhile, Daniel was looking for a place to hide. As he passed by a chair, a dress hanging over the back of the chair fell off and fell right over his head.
Isabella smiled and turned to the bathroom.
"Ten!" Veronica then proceeded to find where all the children were.
However, when Veronica said the last number, there was a knock at the door.
Veronica suddenly panicked. She then looked back at the closed door.
She didn't know who was knocking at the door and she only gave her address to the driver.
Veronica's heart started beating faster.
Isabella gets out of the bathroom and sees that Veronica isn't moving So she insisted in opening the door.
"Wait a minute, Isabella!" Veronica said in an audible whisper. she kept her voice down for fear that she might be heard by the people outside.
"What's the matter?" Isabella asked in a whispered back, then starting to become nervous.
Veronica said nothing. She stood up and approached the door.
"Who is it?" Veronica told the person behind the door.
"It's me, your landlord."
Veronica was in a daze. When she thought of Tom Parker, she couldn't help but feel rejected. The landlord came here because of Tom. "We're resting right now. We can talk about it tomorrow."
"I'm here to give you a deposit. You don't need a deposit?" The landlord said in an ambiguous tone.
Veronica didn't want the deposit and thought it would be best if she just gave it to Tom's daughter.
Veronica Parker hesitated, but she unlocked the door anyway.
When the opened, Veronica felt a sense of insecurity, as if she was in danger.
But everything it was too late.
When she opened the door, she saw a Nick standing outside.
Veronica trembled with fear and looked pale.
Her reaction was to quickly close the door, but Nick slammed Veronica to the door panel. He then looked at Veronica with a cold, stern look. "Did you really think you could escape, Veronica?"
