Chapter 492 Failed seduction

Nick's cold black eyes were shooting daggers at Veronica. He remained silent and emotionless.

"You looked unhappy with my amorous behaviour," Veronica said gloomily and decided to get up and go.

Veronica let out a sigh of a surprise when Nick dragged her back. She fell into her sturdy lap. "You..."

She was out of words when she came face to face with Nick's sharp features. Her brows furrowed in confusion.

"Who told you that I was waiting for you? Huh?" Nick finally asked.

"It's just a misunderstanding." She answered breathlessly.

His silence was so dangerous that Victoria felt like she would be devoured at any moment.

"Do you think that I'll let you babysit?"

"I believe I've already discussed with you the matter regarding the child. I do not know what is the big deal about it." Veronica gave him a final look of resentment and was about to get up when Nick suppressed her attempt again. She was now pressed on the sofa.

"Are you trying to provoke me?" Nick squeezed her chin.

"I am not trying to provoke you. Let me go so I can be on my own."

"You came here, but I won't let you leave yet."Nick's eyes narrowed dangerously.

"There are so many capable women out there Mr. Cage. Why does it have to be me?"

Veronica helplessly asked.

Nick stared at her for a moment and realized that she had a point. He had the same question to himself that seemed like he could not answer. Veronica may always get on his nerves but she is everything that he could think about. She could make his mind and body restless.

Before she could say another word, her mouth was already invaded by Nick and she didn't even have a chance to catch her breath.

Veronica tried to push Nick, she felt rather confused and uncomfortable.

She tried vigorously but it was nothing compared to Nick's strength. All her efforts to free herself went in vain.

Nick finally let go of the kiss and she was able to gasp for air. But his body was still pressed against her. She feared that Nick may strangle her and lose his control.

"Please, Nick. Don't."

"I already told you that if you come here, you will not be able to leave," Nick stated.

"Then please let me see my kids!" Veronica almost begged him.

Nick eventually let her go and stood up. "Get out." He viciously spat at her.

She was still lying on the sofa and her vision was blurred by tears that are tending to flow from her eyelids. Nick was so uncertain and it made her feel beyond confused. She could not indeed keep up with the man's sudden change of behavior.

She had no choice but to sit up and fix her clothes. She took a last glance at Nick's abdomen but immediately withdrew her eyes from it.

"I'm leaving." She was about to exit the room when she remembered the wine. She immediately took it from the coffee table and proceeded to leave.

When Veronica reached the hallway, Nick's face grew even more stoic.

He had no idea where the luxurious wine came from. Nick is no stranger to the wine that Veronica brought him and he could not believe that she would spend such a price just to coax him.

It seemed like Nick had a strong resolve to not allow Veronica to see her children so he would rather not touch her than to make her compromise.

"What happened to you?" Tom asked Veronica upon seeing her.
