Chapter 242 Not Easy to Fool

last update Last Updated: 2024-10-29 19:42:56
When Valeria got up in the morning, William had already left.

Bobby said that he had gone to the Howard Group for a meeting. Even though he wasn't around, he had prepared the Wolf Group's breakfast for her.

Valeria sat at the table to have breakfast and thought about her troubles as she ate.

Ronald definitely wouldn't stop plotting against her after William had interrupted his plan last night. With her understanding of him, he would try to do the same thing again.

This time, she would not walk into the trap as easily as she did yesterday. She had to think of a way to counter it.

"What should I do?" Valeria thought of what Abbie said to her last time.

She had to learn how to manage a company. In order to not let Ronald succeed in his plans, she had to firmly have her mother's company in her control.

Ronald was now in charge of the company, and he certainly would not hand over his power easily. He was already so vicious towards her, so he defin

    In the meeting room, Hayden, Charles, and the other senior executives were already seated and they were waiting for William. William pushed open the door with a mischievous smile, "I'm not late, am I?" "No, you're just in time!" Hayden replied as he swept his gaze over the senior executives present. "Now that everyone is here, let's start the meeting! We will talk about the cooperation project with Acma Corporation. Everyone knows that the contract has been signed, and the next step is developing the project. Even though this is not the first time we are cooperating with them, it is the first big project we have together so far, so they've arranged a special representative to follow up on the project. They will stay and be a member of our company to join our meetings in the future. Please welcome, Miss Paisley Anthony!" Lucas pushed the door open and Paisley walked in. A sneer appeared on Charles' face when he saw Paisley.  It was clear what Hayden was try

    The secretary quickly came in with juice and politely walked to Valeria, "Miss Brown, please have some juice!" Seeing the mango juice in the secretary's hand, Ronald smiled again, "This is your favorite mango juice, drink it!" Valeria pushed the glass away and smiled faintly, "Dad, I liked mango juice when I was around eight. I hate drinking it now." Ronald was a little embarrassed, "Then what do you like to drink? Let me ask them to prepare it for you." "It's okay, I don't want to drink anything now," Valeria waved her hand, "You should plan out what's my role in the company. When it's done, let's go for lunch as a celebration!" It was not appropriate for him to refuse at this point. He got up to walk to his desk before he sat down again. He picked up his mobile phone and he pretended to busy himself. Who knew that when he unlocked his phone, a message came onto the screen. "Hello, Mr. Brown! I'm the one who took your wallet and contract last

    Ashley added some medicine to the mango juice and asked the secretary to send it to Valeria. Then she went back to her office to wait for good news. However, before the good news came, an e-mail was sent by the secretary from the chairman's office. "From now on, Valeria would be the Assistant General Manager of the Brownard Group." Ashley was confused when she saw the email.  What happened? How did she hold the position suddenly? Ronald was not stupid. How could he let her become the Assistant General Manager if he wanted to inherit her property? If that was the case, why would he ask the secretary to notify everyone in the company? She made wild guesses about Ronald's intention while ignoring the discussion outside the office. "Gosh! Miss Brown has been appointed as the Assistant General Manager!" "What's so strange about that? The company belongs to her, it's normal for her to hold the position." "But I thought she had no experien

    Ronald was already in a bad mood because of the blackmailing situation, so Valeria and Ashley's bickering made him felt even worse. Since the DNA test, he had developed a hate for Valeria. Naturally, he would not help her. Needless to say, he was biased towards Ashley. So when he saw them quarreling with each other, he didn't say anything until Valeria took out the recording and he heard Ashley proudly say that the company would change its name to Evans in the future. Ronald's face fell. Ashley did not expect that Valeria would record her. She shook in fury, "Valeria, why are you so despicable?" "Huh? But you did say all that, right?" Valeria laughed coldly. "Dad, Ashley and her mother are not as simple-minded as you think. They are manipulative, so you have to be careful. They have already begun their plan to change the company's name to Evans. Who knows, they might have been secretly trying to find ways to deal with you." These words hit the nail o

    In the chairman's office upstairs, Hayden and Paisley sat on the sofa. When William left after blatantly speaking his mind, it was as if he had slapped Paisley in the face.  She had a great ability to keep things in and she did not get angry at all. She continued with her schedule and went back to the office with Hayden. After today, Hayden was very satisfied with her. She was a person who could withstand anything, which meant she could do great things. When he returned to his office, he gave William's secretary a huge scolding for what William had said to Paisley. He had also ordered for William to come to his office, "Call William over. I have something to say to him." After doing so, Hayden comforted Paisley. "Paisley, that rascal is used to having things his way, so he's very outspoken. I'll teach him a lesson later." There was not the slightest discomfort on Paisley's face, but how could she not truly care about it? However, it was her decision to fol

    Ronald cut Hayden's call and left the office as he asked his secretary, "Where's Miss Brown?" "She said that she went out for dinner!" His secretary answered. Ronald was irritated and immediately turned back to call her phone. However, her phone was busy and he complained angrily, "What the hell? Why is nothing going smoothly?" Valeria drove to the Wolf Group Hotel. The lobby manager immediately welcomed her warmly as she entered the hall, "Miss Brown, this way, please!" She followed the manager into the elevator as he led Valeria into an elegant room. Valeria sat down and called William, "Why aren't you here yet?" "I'll be there soon." "How can a man let a woman wait for him? You're such a diva," She commented on purpose. William smiled and replied, "I have a big surprise for you, so I'll be a little late." Valeria was excited after hearing that he had prepared a surprise for her, "What is it?" "I can't tell you!" "Please? Ju

    Valeria looked at William in surprise. He didn't seem to be joking, "When did we get a house? Why do I not know about it?" "We can have new houses anytime and anywhere you want to." "Is this the surprise you prepared for me today?" "Sort of." "You didn't discuss it with me, William! I should play a part in choosing it since it'll be our home after all. What if I don't like it?" "You will like it! I promise!" Valeria had no choice but to stay silent after hearing how sure he sounded. She couldn't wait to see what the house was like. The car stopped half an hour later. Valeria thought she was hallucinating when she heard the sound of waves from the car.  William got out of the car and went around to open her door. "You first, my queen!" She took his hand and got off the car. Then, she stared at the luxurious villa in front of her with wide eyes, "Is this our home? William, is this true?" "Yes! Do you like it?" "It's facing

    William did not dare to look at Valeria after he had finished speaking. He had hidden his identity for so long, so she must be furious at him. She had been so angry that they almost broke up when she found out that he lied about his identity previously. She would definitely be furious once she knew that he was the president of Wolf Group. William had already braced himself to be scolded and beaten up by her. However, Valeria, who was in his arms, did not move at all. She just looked at him with her innocent eyes. "Are you really the president of Wolf Group? You're not joking?" "Yes, I really am..." "Hahahaha!" Valeria burst into hysterical laughter and was even on the verge of tears. She struggled to get out of his arms and rolled on the bed. "I would be the richest person in the world if you were the president of Wolf Group! Hahaha, William, don't joke like this. It's too ridiculous, my stomach hurts just from laughing. Hurry up... massage it for me

    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
