Valeria looked in the direction that Abbie pointed. At the entrance of Howard Group, William was walking down the stairs with his phone.

Why was William here at the Howard Group? He looked like he was just exiting the building.

At the thought of this, Valeria immediately asked, "Where are you now?"

"Me? I'm at the entrance of the company."

How could William be working here? Elizabeth alone could have given him a lot of trouble. Unless there was another reason for him to come here.

Valeria thought about it and immediately added, "Which company are you working at?"

"I'll tell you when I get back," He wasn't willing to say anything more, so he must be hiding something. Valeria felt her heart went cold for a moment. She couldn't imagine the consequences of William lying to her.

What reason did he have to lie to her? She suppressed the question she wanted to ask, "Well, I'll wait for you at home then."

After hanging up, Abbie snorted an

    Richard nodded and immediately dialed a number, "They are at a night bar, come now!"  "Who are you calling?" Upon hearing Richard's call, Abbie immediately questioned him. "A friend of mine!" "A friend that needs our whereabouts? Oh no, I think I'm going to puke! Bro, keep an eye on Valeria! I need to go to the washroom!" Abbie said and rushed to the washroom. Richard shook his head and sat down to look at Valeria, who was sleeping on the seat. A few minutes later, William rushed in. "Why is she so drunk?"  "Who knows? You should get her into the car first. I'll be here waiting for Abbie." William immediately carried Valerie up in bridal style and left.  Abbie vomited in the bathroom for a while and she staggered out. When she came back to the table, she saw that Richard was alone. Valeria was gone. She asked in horror, "Brother, where is Valeria?" "She's in the car outside." "Oh, then please hold on to me.

    Valeria didn't sleep well that night as she had been having nightmares. In her dreams, people bullied her, so she cried helplessly to no avail. Valeria felt a hand wiping away her tears gently in a daze. She felt like she had found something to lean on. It was like the hand was her support system and she was nestling in his arms. William smiled when he saw she was onto his arm and he refused to let go. He lowered his head and gently kissed Valeria's face. She reached out to hug his waist and nestled in his arms. Soon, she fell asleep again. The next morning, Valeria opened her eyes and she felt that something was wrong. Her head seemed to be buried under something. She stiffly raised her head, and what came into her sight was a magnified handsome face. William looked at her with a gentle smile, "You're awake?" Valeria looked at William in a daze. After a while, she came to her senses and she pushed William away. William extended his arm and pul

    Valeria arrived at Gorham City and knocked on Abbie's door. Abbie came out while rubbing her eyes, "Valeria... you're here?"  Valeria entered the house dejectedly and sat down on the sofa, "Abbie, how did I end up with William last night?" "Uhm... Valeria, he didn't do anything to you, did he?" Abbie looked at Valeria's face carefully. "He didn't do anything to me, but I am furious. Why did he lie to me? I even said all those words to him before this. As I think about it now, I'm such a foolish!"  Valeria began to complain to Abbie, "I gave him money and told him not to pretend to be rich. I also advised him to keep a low profile and even said I wanted to control his financial status. He must be dying of laughter on the inside."  "Well, he's really despicable! My brother said William tried to explain to you but you didn't want to listen, so he just let it be."  "He could have just told me who he is, but he didn't. He must have seen me as one of those

    Mason entered the house with a bruised face. He still looked badly hurt after getting beaten up by William that day.  He greeted Hayden the moment he stepped in. Hayden noticed his bruised face and hesitated before speaking, "Have a seat. Tell me everything you know."  "Well, I don't know anything much. What I know is mostly about Valeria Brown. I don't even recognize Mr. William when I saw him yesterday. I thought he was the gigolo Valeria had taken an interest in."  "A gigolo?" Hayden was furious. His eyes were suddenly filled with anger.  Mr. William of the Howard Family was being regarded as a gigolo! He was Hayden's favorite son, man! This was infuriating!  "No, it isn't me that called him a gigolo. It was Valeria who insisted that he's one," Mason quickly pushed the blame on Valeria, "Valeria met Mr. William at a nightclub and had since taken an interest in him by making him her sugar-baby."  "This is unacceptable! Valeria must be a messed up w

    Valeria spent the whole afternoon complaining, so Abbie brought her to Wolf Group to fill her stomach.  Their car came to a halt at the entrance of Wolf Group. Right at this time, William's Bentley stopped beside their car. William sat in the car and looked at Valeria while she coldly ignored him. She didn't even spare him a glance. Abbie then pulled her into the building together.  William shook his head and got out of his car. He just followed behind them.  Noticing that William was following behind, Abbie whispered, "Valeria, William is behind us. Do you think he came to apologize?"  "Just ignore him. I get mad when I see his face! His apologies are meaningless," Valeria scoffed.  "Alright, as you wish. Let's pretend we don't know this person at all."  As they spoke, they entered the elevator. William, who was behind them, strode forward. Just as the elevator door was about to close, he reached out to block the door and stepped right in.

    Hayden didn't say anything. Instead, he got into the elevator with a smile. When they reached the parking lot, they split and went separate ways. William helped Hayden into the car and waved goodbye with a smile. The driver started the car and drove away with Hayden. However, William didn't leave immediately. He lit up a cigarette when he got into the car. Hayden, who was sitting in the back seat, turned around and saw William smoking alone in the car. The smile on his face gradually faded away. He looked at the butler, Lucas, and asked, "Did you hear William's phone call just now?" "It seems to be a call from Mr. Richard. He's talking about what Sir Charles said this morning," Lucas answered immediately. "Didn't he say that the matter in the morning had been suppressed and covered up? Why is it being spread again? Please take a look at what's going on right now," Hayden ordered. After making a few calls and trying to figure out the matter, Luc

    Ronald returned home last night in a bad mood. He knew that Ashley hooked up with Mason and did Valeria wrong.  But he could see that Mason never had real feelings for Valeria, so why did she left him with no choice?  Ashley was already pregnant at that time. Valeria could have just let Mason go and everybody could move on with their own lives!  That ongoing problem was already giving him a headache, and now Julie and Ashley had given him a much bigger problem. He never expected them to publicly slander Valeria!  And this time, Valeria caught them off guard and she had something against them. Ronald didn't really care for Valeria, but he was just embarrassed.  After all, what happened last night had been witnessed by Abbie. It was very humiliating for him that this happened in front of an outsider.  Although he was furious that Julie and Ashley did such a thing, he was even angrier that Valeria looked for help from an outsider instead of going to him

    Valeria then went back to Lake View Nest. The house was very quiet and William was not home. She entered the bedroom with mixed feelings and began to pack her clothes. The wardrobe was filled with both of their clothes as they didn't separate them. She picked out her own clothes and tossed them on the bed. Then she found a suitcase and placed all of them inside.  A sound came from outside. Valeria raised her head and saw William at the door.  He was a little out of breath and he must have rushed home. Seeing that Valeria was packing her clothes, he stopped at the door and asked, "Why are you packing your clothes?" "I'm moving!" Valeria said straightforwardly. "Why do you want to move?" "Don't you know why?"  "You said that you will not leave me! What are you doing now?"  William's face darkened. "You said you would never lie to me, but what did you do?" Valeria questioned. "That's because..." "Well, it doesn't matter anymore.

    On the day of Azalea's recovery, she was escorted out of the hospital by two police officers to wait for her sentence. She was wearing shackles and handcuffs as she walked through the parking lot. She saw Michael with Abbie, who was holding Emma in her arms. Michael was holding Abbie's waist, ready to get into their car. Seeing that Michael had recovered, Azalea was extremely perplexed. She had learned from the police that Leonard's man had tried to kill her to silence her and knew that Leonard was using her, so she did not regret her vicious behavior. Azalea stared at the child in Abbie's arms and Michael as she started to have vicious thoughts. If the one who got injured that day was Abbie, and if Abbie died, everything would be different now, wouldn't it? Michael would be living a life worse than death. His child would not have a mother anymore, and no one could have what she couldn't. She would be satisfied. However, all of this was just her imaginatio

    After Leonard's matter was settled, Richard returned to the Clark family. Abbie wasn't asleep yet and was sitting alone in the living room in a daze. Richard walked to her and sat down. Then, he reached out and patted her on the shoulder. "Why aren't you asleep yet?" "I can't sleep. Richard, he... he will be fine, won't he?" "Don't think too much. He will be fine." "I don't want anything to happen to him... Richard, I actually hate him very much and have never thought of being with him again. I have suffered enough! Every time I made up my mind to cut all ties with him, something bad would happen like what happened now. Richard, what should I do?" Richard understood Abbie's dilemma. "Abbie, do you still love him?" "I don't know! I hate him! I hate him so much!" "You can't let him go, can you? You and he broke up three times, but he has always been in your heart." Richard sighed. "To be honest, I don't want you and him to start over again. After

    It was late at night in Azalea's ward as she lay on the bed and fell asleep with her eyes closed. Three of Azalea's ribs were broken while one of her hands was handcuffed to the hospital bed. The policeman guarding her felt that there was no way she could escape, so he relaxed his guard. The man who was arranged by Leonard's assistant had been waiting for the right moment in the hospital. Then, they immediately entered the ward and attacked Azalea when they saw that the policeman had left. Just as they covered Azalea's mouth and were about to suffocate her to death, a soft voice could be heard by the door of the ward. "Hey! Are you trying to silence her?" The man turned his head and saw that Bobby were taking photos with his mobile phone while Silas was bent over in laughter. Later, Leonard was woken up at 2 a.m. in the morning when Richard and his bodyguards came to visit him furiously. Leonard had already guessed the purpose of Richard's visit as soon as

    It had been two days since Leonard's assistant brought Azalea back to the city and she was specially sent here today to attack Michael. Although Azalea hated Michael, she did love him immensely in the past and she didn't want to kill him. The one she hated the most was still Abbie. She had been overshadowed by Abbie since she was a child and she had never won against her before. It was all thanks to Abbie now that she ended up like this. Michael wouldn't deal with her if it weren't for Abbie, and she wouldn't have been driven to a dead end like this. She was going to die in the end anyway, so she wanted nothing more than to drag Abbie down with her. She knew that she couldn't get close to Abbie. Besides, she also knew very well that Leonard wanted to use her to kill Michael so that he could marry Abbie. Azalea acted as if she had been persuaded by Leonard's assistant to attack Michael, but in fact, her target was Abbie all along. She saw how desperat

    Azalea looked up when she heard the voice and met Leonard's assistant's gaze in the car. She stopped crying once he got out of the car. "Miss Clark, I've been looking for you everywhere!" Azalea lowered her head frantically when she saw him, but he said warmly, "Miss Clark, get in the car." She didn't know if Leonard's assistant knew about the murder she'd committed, so she hesitated for a moment before getting into the car. He then gave her a bottle of water and some food. Azalea was famished because she hadn't eaten anything for a few days, so she wolfed down her food desperately. Leonard's assistant had been observing Azalea all this time, and he said once she finished eating, "I know what you've done! The police are now looking for you everywhere." Azalea's expression was filled with panic. "Are you going to hand me over to the police?" "No, I'm here to help you." "How can you do that?" Azalea asked in frustration. "I won't be a

    It started to rain again early in the morning, which made the air in the mountains damp and cold. Meanwhile, Azalea lay motionlessly on the messy bed. She could hear the child's wailing from outside while Monthel's mother tried to coax the child. However, there was no sign of it ending even after some time. Monthel's mother started to become angry as well, so she scolded the child and eventually began to target Azalea again. "Why are you still lying in bed at this time? I've never seen someone as lazy as you. A wife should get up early in the morning to cook, but you are the only one who will laze around like this!" This was not the first time that Azalea had been scolded. Monthel's mother had begun to pick on her the second day after she arrived. Azalea would fight back initially, but she no longer dared to talk back after she was slapped in the face by Monthel. Monthel's mother cursed outside for a while. Then, she lifted the curtain and came into the ro

    Leonard's expression turned very ugly, but Richard did not give him a chance to even catch his breath. "After I learnt of your relationship with her, I sent someone to extract the DNA of the fetus in Evelyn's belly and compare it with yours. The results show that she's indeed pregnant with your child, but you can verify it personally if you don't believe me." Since Richard dared to say this, there was no possibility for Leonard to turn the tables. The veins on Leonard's forehead bulged as he was filled with humiliation. He initially wanted to get back at Fandrey by asking him to propose the marriage to the Clark family, but she ended up being embarrased like this. He was furious, but Richard continued, "We are very grateful to you for saving Abbie's life. Although she can't marry you, we can continue to be friends if you want to." What could Leonard say? He had done a terrible mistake, so he couldn't possibly tell Richard that he wanted to cut all ties between t

    Abbie tried her best to escape, but it was useless. Michael even kissed her on the face a few times, which made her so angry that her voice trembled. "Michael... F*ck you... I'm going to kill you!" Michael turned a deaf ear to her words because he hadn't been so close to Abbie for such a long time. He missed her like crazy, so how could he bring himself to let her go? Abbie kept struggling desperately, but her physical strength was no match for Michael's. Michael then carried her back to the sofa, which made her furious because she couldn't escape. "Michael, what are you trying to do?" Michael did not answer her at all. Instead, he just hugged her so tightly as if he didn't want to let her go at all. He hugged her for such a long time that her whole body had gone numb. "Michael, what's wrong with you? Let go of me! I can't move!" It was only then did Michael let go of Abbie. Her limbs had already gone numb and she felt extremely uncomfortable. Just t

    Michael happily placed the coffee he ordered for Abbie in front of her. "Here, I've ordered your favourite coffee." However, Abbie sneered and picked up the coffee to splash it all over him. The coffee was very hot, but Michael just smiled bitterly and said, "Do you hate me so much?" "What do you think?" Abbie looked at Michael coldly without any affection in her eyes. "My feelings for you have never changed! What happened between me and Azalea is all fake, and I've never had anything to do with her. The news with Anastasia was also fake. I was the one who used her to provoke Azalea, but Leonard made up those news articles to get back at me. I swear, I haven't been with anyone else apart from you!" Abbie let out a cold laugh, "Really?" "I'm serious! I swear that I'm not lying to you!" "There's no need to swear, or else even you'll beleive your own lies." Michael became desperate when it was obvious that Abbie didn't believe him. "What do I have
