Chapter 650 I Want Them Out
Clare Parker's career would go downhill because of what she did.
"I have to go. I am busy," Veronica Parker ended the call.
She doesn't want to talk to Rachel Hamilton about it anymore. She deserved what happened.
She closed the article and called Tom Parker, "Can we have dinner together?"
Tom Parker was surprised. He immediately agreed and asked, "Where would you like to eat? I'll make the reservation."
"You decided," Veronica Hamilton said.
"Okay then. I'll make a reservation to the best restaurant in the city."
"Okay", she ended the call.
It was around seven in the evening when they met. They went to a fancy restaurant close to Veronica Parker's office.
"The food here is the best in the city. You can ask Nick to have dinner with you here sometime," Tom Parker said.
"What made you think he would eat here with me?" she replied.
"I'm sure he would love to", Tom Parker said.
"What do you like about Sarah North?" Veronica Parker intentionally asked.
Tom Parker sighed and said, "I used to think she was cute, but her temper is getting worse. Probably because of her age."
Veronica Parker thought what the temper has to do with age. She knew he liked her because they were rich.
Tom Parker doesn't really like Sarah North. The old lady would get mad if she knew this.
"I didn't expect you will ask me out for dinner", Tom Parker said to her.
She looked into his eyes as if she was delighted to have dinner with him, but the truth was she did this for something else.
"I just wanted to know how Clare was doing. To tell you the truth, I was happy with what happened to her. She was trying to seduce Nick from me."
"You shouldn't worry about it. You already won Nick's heart. The article she released to the internet would have a great impact on her, everyone was talking about it. She looked really tough, but I know deep inside her was suffering," Tom Parker said.
"I still need to guard myself from her," she said.
"Oh! There is one more thing. Your wedding anniversary party was moved earlier. Why? Did you do that in purpose to set me up?" she asked.
"I don't know about it," he answered in surprise; "Did someone tell you I did it on purpose?"
"Yes. That is why I wanted to hear it from you."
"Everything looked like it was planned, but why would I set you up?" Tom Parker has a point.
She doesn't really want to know what happened. She was just making a conversation. She knew her father has nothing to do with it.
"I am your dad and I cherish you for the rest of my life," he said.
"Well, I want the North family to get out of the way," she said, "The presence of Sarah North and her daughter threatens me. I wanted to ask Nick to do it, but it might hurt the company. You've already put so much effort to it and that can't be wasted."
