Chapter 411 It Can't Disappear Just Like That
With a shy smile on his face, the little boy looked at Veronica Parker and asked her in return, "Do I really have to choose between Mom and Dad?"
Veronica Parker folded her lips and responded. "Other kids prefer one over the other.."
"I like a girl in our small class." The boy interjected.
Veronica Parker didn't expect to get such an answer. So instead of changing the subject, she asked him further with much anticipation, "The girl in your class?"
The others laughed as they listened.
The director found the conversation charming and didn't intervene.
"Yes." The little boy happily answered.
"Well then, could you tell us the reason why you like this girl in your class?" Veronica Parker inquired with a smile.
"She is very cute. She has these two pigtails and she's prettier than any girl I know!" The little boy exclaimed with so much excitement.
Veronica Parker joked to the camera, "It seems like boys were born to like beautiful girls."
The audience below burst out laughing.
"Does she like you?" Veronica Parker asked.
"I think so." The little boy proudly answered.
Veronica Parker held back a smile, looked down at the audience who kept on smiling because of her little boy, and asked, "Why?"
"Because she sent me a lot of little red flowers." He revealed.
"Oh, red little flowers?" Veronica Parker inquired. "Was that the little safflowers from the garden?" She asked the little boy for confirmation. "Yes." He responded and showed them all a big smile.
Veronica Parker then thought to herself that the boy's story was a little familiar.
"That's so cute. Can you tell us her name?" She asked.
"Her first name is Lily." The little boy exclaimed.
There were several reactions by made the audience. Even Veronica Parker couldn't hide her astonished face. But relatively, most people were amused as to how the little boy spoke with so much innocence. They just regarded the little boy's story as part of a child's play and it shouldn't be taken seriously. When they finished filming, the director was very satisfied with the on-the-spot interview.
Sometimes children's minds are different from those of adults. Life can often speak golden sentences, ironic and funny, and the one who has deep feelings is Veronica Parker.
In general, children viewed things differently than those of adults. Their innocence would often pacify a caught off guard situation then adults would just laugh and forget like it never happened.
But not for Veronica Parker at that time.
Veronica Parker stepped down and Lucy Underwood came over to help her take off her headset and earrings.
After recording, all these things have to be kept.
Veronica Parker glanced at her watch and realized that it was almost 6 o'clock when they finished filming for the interview. Veronica Parker went back to her office, sat down on her seat then opened the drawer to take out her bracelet and watch. She first wore her bracelet then started looking for her watch. She checked every corner of the drawer but she wasn't able to find it.
Her eyes grew bigger then she panicked when she realized that her watch was gone.
She recalled that she carefully placed her pieces of jewelry inside that drawer. But now her watch was gone.
She hurriedly checked the other drawers, even the trash bin inside her office. But she found none. Not even the slightest trace of her watch.
Veronica Parker stood there, her head was buzzing.
It was Nick Cage who gave her that watch. It was indeed an expensive watch. And now it's gone, how in the world could she inform him that she actually lost it?
If Nick Cage finds out that she was not wearing it, he would think that she did it on purpose and he would definitely get offended.
He has this predictable character of getting angry and Veronica Parker knew about it. She was certain of all the possible reactions of Nick Cage.
She felt dizzy and got too scared at the thought of Nick Cage getting angry at her again.
She was sure that the watch was inside the drawer. She placed it there. She thought over and over again. But she couldn't remember any incident that she mistakenly left the watch outside the drawer. She was certain enough that she placed it inside.
She thought that it was impossible for the watch to disappear just like that. Someone must have been so jealous of her and stole her watch.
Veronica Parker went to her window, peeked, and saw her colleagues getting ready to leave the office.
Everybody acted normal. Nothing suspicious.
She couldn't just spy nor accuse anybody of stealing her watch.
She tried so hard to focus, then she thought of a way to figure out what really happened.
Veronica Parker walked out of the department with a backpack and went to the surveillance room.
"What can I do for you, Ms. Parker?" The security officer asked.
"Could you show me the surveillance records of the entertainment department just this afternoon?" Veronica Parker asked.
