The door shut with a loud bang and Valeria shuddered. Looking at the dishes scattered on the floor, a guilty feeling arose in her heart. Did she say something wrong? She was so angry that she couldn't remember what she had said. William had never smashed anything in front of her. This was the first time he did that and it was frightening! He must have been furious. Obviously, she had offended him today. Whatever then, so be it. It was not as if she expected him to be good to her for the rest of her life. They could just go their separate ways from then on. William left the condominium in anger and he got on his car. He then sped off away from Lake View Nest. He went straight to Wolf Group Hotel. Once he arrived, he met Michael and Richard. They were shocked when they saw his dark expression, "What happened?'' ''I am pissed off! They say that women are unreasonable creatures. I didn't really believe it until today," William answered
Once she received her father's call, Valeria rushed to the office. She was prepared to get scolded once she arrived. But instead of scolding her, he smiled when he saw her. He said, "You're here. Let's have lunch together." "Have lunch?" Valeria asked in confusion. She looked at him and wondered if he wanted to have lunch or her head. Ronald was about to explode in anger as he was sure that Valeria was behind this. But judging by how the news had spread, he did not dare to scold her. What he had to do then was to suppress the news. The online rumors had claimed that they had got into a huge fight. So now, he wanted to make sure news of him and Valeria being chummy again would spread online. He held in his anger and pulled Valeria's hand as he walked out. "Come on, let's have your favorite steamboat today." What was happening? Valeria was stiff as she was dragged out of the company. On their way to the restaurant, there were people taking pictur
Ronald looked at Mr. Anthony like a little kid staring at his favorite chocolates in a candy store. It was evident that he wanted to please Mr. Anthony as well. Valeria was a little dispirited and embarrassed when she looked at her father. She replied gloomily, "I just met him today." "Really? I was wondering why you had never told me about it! Mr. Anthony, Valeria is quite bad at socializing and she has a bad temper. Please forgive her if she offended you in any way." "No, Miss Brown is smart, kind, and cute. It is such a blessing to have a daughter like her," Hardy praised Valeria sincerely. "Really? I was worried that she might have offended you. I'm relieved that you think that way. It's running quite late now, do you want to have dinner together? You can decide on the location, Mr. Anthony." "Dad!" Valeria's expression changed immediately but her father was oblivious to this. "Would you care to do me this honor?" Hardy felt a little dismayed whe
The woman who saved his father was Paisley Anthony. Her face was red with sweat and heat while smiling shyly at him. Seeing this, Hayden was confused, "William, do you know this kind-hearted lady?" William replied, "Yes, dad. She is Paisley Anthony." "Paisley? You're the talented and smart daughter of the Anthony family." Hayden was very surprised. Paisley smiled and said, "Yes, I'm Paisley! But me being talented and smart are just rumors." Paisley was not a spoilt rich kid from a wealthy family. She looked good-natured and easy-going. William couldn't help but take another look at her. Paisley was indeed very beautiful and had a charming charisma to her. She had what it took to make guys fall in love with her. At noon, Michael and Richard were praising her looks and talents. He didn't really think much about it, but now that he was meeting her in person, he finally believed it. Paisley also happened to save Hayden, so of course, William was g
William, the playboy that broke hundreds of women's hearts, had been in her bed the previous night. And now, in just a few hours, he had another woman next to him. Valeria was so angry that she wanted to march up to him and slap him to vent her anger. But when she thought about how she had scolded him that morning, and how he left in anger, she felt guilty about it. If she hadn't vented her anger on him that morning, she would have the right to march in and question him. But since she was the one who made things look bad that day, how could she reprimand him? If she did so, she would be laughed by him. Feeling despair, she heard William's charming voice say, "These are Wolf Group's famous dishes. Please have a taste, Miss Anthony." "Thank you!" Paisley's voice was pleasant to the ear. "Wow, is this how it feels when you choose hoes before bros? Why aren't you helping us to some as well?" Richard exclaimed in exaggeration. "Don't you
She thought that they were still in the restaurant. Never did she expect that they had already left the hotel. William was at the driver's seat while the beauty was on the passenger's seat. Both of them were talking with smiles on their faces. Looking at William's subtle smile, she felt a prick in her heart. She glared fiercely at William. As if sensing her gaze, he looked out the window and stared at Valeria expressionlessly before he started to drive. His car then roared to life and it left the building. Watching William leave, Richard said, "William sure is eager to have fun with the girl. Let's go, Michael." The both of them then left in their respective cars. Valeria was so upset that she wanted to leave the place as fast as she could. However, Ronald had other ideas. He turned to Hardy and said, "It's still early. Valeria, why don't you go have fun with Mr. Anthony?" Was this what a father should say? Valeria was enraged and frustrated, "
Valeria took a shower once she returned. After that, she took out her phone and saw that Hardy had sent her a friend request on Whatsapp. She accepted it, and Hardy immediately sent her an emoji. Valeria thought that he would be very busy and have no time to reply to her. She only accepted his request out of courtesy, but she didn't expect him to send her a text. She sighed and thought of how humiliating her father was. She felt that she needed to apologize for it. "I'm sorry about tonight, Mr. Anthony. My dad isn't the most reasonable person. Please don't take it to heart." "I didn't, so you shouldn't think too much about it too." Valeria and Hardy were not familiar with each other, so they didn't know what to talk about. They talked about some trivial things awkwardly for a while. It was an embarrassing conversation. So, she ended their conversation with a good night's text. Hardy could feel Valeria's uneasiness through the screen. His
Abbie gave Paisley a look over before she turned to William. They sure looked like a perfect match on the outside. But in other aspects, they probably did not. William was a rich kid who loafed around while Paisley was a smart and beautiful girl. Paisley was precious to the Anthony family, so how could they ever let her be with William, a boy that did not have any talents or redeeming qualities? Perhaps William was the one interested in her and not the other way round. This thought made Abbie felt much better. "Oh, I've heard a lot about you, Ms. Anthony!" "Hello, Miss Clark!" Although Abbie did not introduce herself, Paisley could guess who she was when Richard addressed her. Abbie had always kept a safe distance from beautiful and talented women like her. And she was going to do the same today. After knowing that the woman was Paisley, she didn't quite believe what Valeria said. There must be a misunderstanding! Abbie had in
