Chapter 3
Rawlf and Veronica were boarded a car traversing the highway as the man was driving the car he
designed himself.
Few knew the fact that he also studied engineering and architecture. Deserving of the title, 'Genius
Sy' back at his alma mater, H University, one of the world's most prestigious universities. That's why his
mother never worried about his position in his father's company despite the bastard offspring his father
had with his mistresses.
Rawlf from a young age proved himself remarkable and irreplaceable by being a confirmed genius
by Mensa International. NASA even tried to poach him multiple times to be a rocket scientist but it's not
that it was never his passion but he would rather work for his own company and not to slave away for
others.
Rawlf would look at the fidgeting woman on the passenger seat from time to time and would smirk
at his creation out of her. Her lips swollen red, making her look even more sensual.
He stepped on the brakes as her alluring face on his bed flashed across his mind.
Veronica's eyes widened when she looked outside and realized the car was on its way to City I's
most expensive and luxurious five star hotel. The Sy hotel was owned by Sy International, obviously.
Veronica turned frantic because a realization dawned on her that she might be seen by others.
Her father was not really strict with her but she knows as well that he wouldn't like it if his unica hija
would be seen with a man entering a hotel. The meaning would be too scandalous not only for her but
for her father's political reputation. She's aware that Rawlf Sy has the capability of preventing the media
from reporting him with a woman but as for her, her family is not as wealthy and powerful enough to
stop the media from broadcasting this juicy news with a possible caption: "City I's Vice Governor's
daughter was seen inside the hotel together with a man?!"
The thought of destroying her father's political reputation so much that he's planning to vye for the
Governorship in next year's election made her anxious.
"Stop!" she suddenly exclaimed. Realizing her stupid sudden outburst, her cheeks and ears
flushed red. "I mean can we enter in a much inconspicuous manner where no one could see us?" She
hurriedly explained.
Rawlf on the other hand was not stupid to enter the main entrance of the hotel building with a
woman. Although first, he owns it and second, he has the power to control the media, still it would be
detrimental somehow for the sake of the woman he's with for the time being. Indeed, he used women
for his sexual satisfaction but still, he would make up for it by protecting their privacy the same as with
him. It's one of his quid pro quo for women that could satisfy his sexual
needs. That's why he has his own underground garage and elevator made at the hidden part of
the hotel building.
"Relax sweetheart. Your reputation will still be intact even after tonight." Rawlf thought deeper with
her urgent plea. It somehow confirmed that she might be the daughter of the most righteous politician
of City I, Eddie Wang. He doesn't have any personal issue regarding City I's political arena but the
current Governor Noverto Yan was his ally and unfortunately, Eddie Wang belongs to the opposing
party. And what's worst, Eddie was vying for the Governorship next year.
Champion of the masses Eddie Wang might be, but with the fight against power and money, he's
nothing. That's the real politics. The art of getting what (power) and how (through whatever means as
for him, the end justifies the means.) He's not really a big fan of Machiavelli but he appreciates that
doctrine from him.
"Heard your father vye for the Governorship next year?" Rawlf tested. Her surprised but guarded
expression confirmed his assumption earlier.
"You know John Rawls?" She asked him out of the blue. Rawlf, being a genius, is very much
aware of whom she was talking about. John Rawls is one of the most important political philosophers of Nôvel(D)rama.Org's content.
the 21st century. And if his prediction is correct, she would point to his unpublished document
answering the question about his religion. The document started with a line: "My religion, is of no one's
concern."
Rawlf laughed loudly. My, my, what an interesting seductress he got himself with. His laughter
confused Veronica. And she realizes, of course, the powerful Rawlf Sy of Sy International exists
because of his own brilliance.
"But I am a resident of City I so of course, it should be my concern as a constituent to know about
the political weather, is it not?" His answer confirmed Veronica's realization. That indeed he is brilliant.
"Aside from that, I wasn't asking for your father's religion. I'm asking about his political stand for next
year's election."
"Don't you think it's awkward to talk about politics, or in particular, asking about my father's political
stand?" Veronica bravely replied despite the intimidation she still felt over this guy.
"Hmm? What about it that makes things awkward?"
Verona blew upward, "You're asking the father's political stand to his daughter whom," Veronica
paused and glance at the man on the driver seat, "you are about to f*ck." Veronica knew her words
were too bold. But well, that's one of her tipsy problems. Her tongue turned scandalous and sharp.
Rawlf this time was silent but the glint of amusement flashed in his eyes. She was briefly glancing
her way when she blew upward and that he finds this goddamn sexy. 'Very interesting.'
