Chapter 560 I Missed My Appointment Yesterday

Tom Parker was stunned. "Are you having dinner with Nick Cage?"

"Why else wouldn't I go there?"

Tom Parker didn't have the guts to rob Nick Cage. He changed his anxious tone and said, "Okay, you can eat with Mr. Cage! So, how about tomorrow?"

"Tomorrow is fine." Veronica Parker hung up the phone with an unapologetic look because she stood him up on purpose.

Tom Parker knows that talking about it in the box will certainly upset Sarah North and Clare Parker, when they have a bighead as of the moment.

"What did you say? She's not coming?" Sarah North stood up anxiously. "Is she toying with us?"

"Since she did not intend to come, then why didn't she say so earlier? She could've informed us beforehand!" Clare Parker asked.

"She was informed at the last minute, too, and Nick Cage asked her to accompany her for dinner. She just couldn't ignore it, could she? Change the schedule to tomorrow! She will certainly come tomorrow!" Tom Parker said.

"If she comes, then I won't come." Sarah North was livid.

"Mom, you can always have something to eat wherever you go." Clare Parker said and turned to Tom Parker, "Then move the appointment for tomorrow."

Sarah North sat down angrily.

Clare Parker wouldn't want to lose the upper hand by calculating the possibility of Nick Cage showing up at dinner.

Tom Parker explained to Saxon Raglan the current predicament he was in. "Veronica couldn't make it tonight, but it doesn't matter, as Clare said, there's always something to eat, and we'll meet maybe sometime again tomorrow."

Saxon Raglan didn't seem to have a problem with it. He nodded.

The next day, Tom Parker arranged dinner on the same time and at the same place. Tom Parker's family and Saxon Raglan have arrived not too long for their reservation.

Sarah North mocked, "If she hasn't arrived yet, then that would probably mean that she's having dinner with Nick Cage again, isn't she? Tom, I think you'd better call her and see ask how her meal is going. "

Before Tom Parker could speak, the waiter opened the door of the box and came in Veronica Parker. "What's the matter? I haven't eaten yet. Did you perhaps mean you wouldn't welcome me here when you asked for how my supposed meal with Nick Cage was going?"

Clare Parker looked behind Veronica Parker, and her heart sank when she realized that, once again, to no avail, Nick Cage did not come. But no one can be sure until the end!

"No, Sarah is worried about you being stuck in the traffic jam and asked me to call you." Tom Parker was relieved to see Veronica Parker and responded in the stead of Sarah North with a smile.

Saxon Raglan stood up and nodded to Veronica Parker.

Ignoring it, Veronica Parker walked to the table with a poker face, sat down and looked at Sarah North. "I did miss my appointment yesterday. Did I make you angry?"

Sarah North snickered. "In whatever way would you make us angry? Anyway, we have to eat. If you didn't show up, we'd have eaten the foods here without you. It's no big deal. "

Veronica Parker raised her eyebrow slightly but remained silent.

Tom Parker asked all the prepared dishes to be served on the table, and after a while, the table was filled with delightful dishes.

Veronica Parker didn't bother to wait for the rest of them, and just picked up the chopsticks and started to eat.

Saxon Raglan was relatively low-key as he was the last one to move the chopsticks. He was well-behaved, very restrained and exhibited proper table etiquette.

"I heard that you were under recuperation after a car accident. Are you experiencing any sequelae?" Sarah North asked.

"Yes." Veronica Parker looked intently at Sarah North as she replied, "I'm grumpier than ever."

Sarah North's countenance suddenly changed. Was this perhaps an underlying threat distinctly suggesting not to mess with her?

But after all, supporting behind Veronica Parker was Nick Cage, which was obviously a sly fox pretending to be a tiger!

Why prey on an anchovy when there were bigger fishes to catch?

"Don't worry, if anyone messes with you, tell me who they are, dear, and I won't forgive them." Sarah North declared. "Eat well. Look how skinny you are. I would think Mr. Cage is starving you at home. But why didn't Mr. Cage come with you? Are you still in Winter Villa? I couldn't believe myself when I heard he permitted you to come and have dinner here with us. I got worked up and became anxious when you didn't dine with us yesterday. If Mr. Cage wouldn't stay with us if something happened, wouldn't it be a sin for us?"
