They were released the next day. The first thing they did when they got out of their captivity was to report back. Ronald Brown received word that Valeria had nothing to do with Richard, and that Valeria was living with a very ordinary man, a handsome man, who did not have a decent job. Hearing this, Ronald turned blue with anger. He couldn't believe his daughter, was living with such an ordinary man. It really pissed him off! This ran counter to his plan to have Valeria marry off to another wealthy family for some time after she and Mason had broken up. But look at what Valeria had done now. She was living with another man. It would disconcert his plan. No, he couldn't give up his plan. Valeria must leave that ordinary man! He must find a way to make Valeria break up with that man! The news Mason got was similar to Ronald's. It was that Valeria and Richard had nothing to do with each other and she was living with a tall and handsome man.
At 7 o'clock in the evening, Valeria rushed to the rotating restaurant in B City. She went through the door of the box and saw Ashley and Julie sitting there with Ronald. Valeria instantly turned dark. Julie had to maintain her good stepmother appearance in front of Ronald. She stood up with a smile and said, "Good to see you, Valeria. Come here and have a seat!" Ashley followed Julie to her feet and enthusiastically held Valeria's hand, as if she and Valeria had never had a problem. Seeing Ashley feigning innocence, Valeria felt disgusted. She avoided Ashley's touch and looked at Ronald, "What do you want, my dear father?" "Come in and sit down, Valeria. I've order the dishes you like. We talked over dinner." Ronald also forced a smile. Valeria knew Ronald had bad intentions behind his smile. It was a challenge for Valeria to cover up her disgust while dining with the mistress and her daughter. Valeria wanted to turn around and leave, but when she t
Valeria was stunned as Ronald shouted at her. He made her here was to make her break up with Bob. So he already knew Bob's identity? When she was determined to be with Bob, she knew that there would come such a day, just, not today. After a second of surprise, Valeria refused Ronald without a second thought, "No way! I won't break up with him!" Valeria's disobedience made Ronald so furious that he threatened, "It is not up to you. I'm telling you, if you continue to be together with that man, don't blame me for being rude to him." "What are you going to do?" Valeria's heart sank when she got Ronald's words. "How dare he seduce my daughter! I'm gonna break his legs!" "This is a civilized community ruled by law. You command a lot of respect and you should be afraid of being charged of violence." "Just a skint man. So what if I kill him?" Ronald sneered. Seeing the ferocious look in Ronald's eyes, Valeria shivered. She knew very well that Bo
The two men in black wore ghost masks and looked hideous in the light of the headlights. Ashley was so scared that she screamed. Then she hurried into the car and locked the door. The two phantasmal guy stiffly approached Ashley with bloody hammers and knives in their hands. Trembling and panicking, Ashley picked up the phone and made a call. The call was soon put through. Ashley kept trembling, "Mason, I've seen the ghosts. Come and help me!" Mason was in confusion, "Are you out of your mind? You sure you've seen ghosts?" "Ghosts for real. They're coming to me, with hammers and knives ... So much blood... Ah..." Before Ashley could finish his trembling words, the two ghosts came up to her car. One of them raised the hammer and slammed it against the window of Ashley's car. The sound of breaking glass made Ashley scream in horror. And the phone was hung up. Mason was shocked with the phone. Screams of anguish of Ashley a few second
"To elope?" William was extremely shocked. Looking at her rosy cheeks and steady eyes, he was both moved and amused. He gently pinched her nose, "You're not delirious, are you?" "Quit it! I'm serious. Let's elope, okay?" "Okay, but you really think it over? Because you need to give up everything to elope with me." William teased. "I don't care. All I want is you!" Valeria held William's neck, determined more than ever, "Nothing matters as long as you're around!" The cutie's thought about elopement gave William a big surprise. So far, he was skint with nothing, while Valeria was the daughter of an old money. How courageous she was to say elopement? "Then she was indeed in some kind of trouble and with no other choices, she had to elope with me." William had to figure out what had happened to her, "Valeria, tell me the reason that we need to elope?" "No reason for it! You don't want to?" "Of course I do..." "Then no problem. So let's
Mason's words shocked Valeria. She wondered what made Mason say that. "Ronald had done something to Bob?" "No, not so soon. Mason might be bluffing me?" She mustered up the courage to refute immediately, "You wish. We did nothing wrong, nobody can hurt us." "Nothing wrong? You can deny it but we got the prove!" "What prove? What the hell are you talking about?" "Don't play dumb. Don't tell me that you have no idea what the pimp did last night. You're so ruthless! Ashley is pregnant." Valeria finally assembled some clues from Mason's accusation. Something happened to Ashley, and Mason suspected that she and Bob were responsible. She let out a snort of laughter, "So what happened to Ashley? Just say it. It's ridiculous of you to be so upset." "Well, let's get down to brass tacks. Ashley was stripped naked and splashed with pig's blood among the tombs in the countryside, her car was smashed, too. She is freaked out and having a high te
Marcus left the conference room and returned to his office, where he saw Valeria looking worried. She stood up as soon as she saw Marcus came in. Marcus smiled kindly at her, "Have your seat, please, Miss Brown. What do you want to see me about?" "She says your driver is in trouble and wants your help." Richard continued slowly, "By the way, where is your driver? Is he really in trouble?" "Nope. My driver is fine." Marcus sat down with a smile. "Is he really fine?" Marcus's words took a load off Valeria's mind, however, she frowned instantly, "I can't get through his phone. Why doesn't he answer it if nothing's wrong?" "Signal problems or battery hitting empty. Don't worry, he's totally fine." In spite of such assurances, Valeria was still not reassured, "Mr. Field, actually, here's the thing..." Then she told them what she had learned from Mason, and about the cops calling her the same. Marcus dismissed the event and laughed nonchalantly
The words startled the deputy sheriff. Ronald was indeed nobody to Wolf Group. The last deputy sheriff ended up in prison for getting in the way of some big shot in Wolf Group, he knew it well. "God, I don't really have a clear conscience, what if they aren't leaving me alone? I'm likely to get dismissed in those things then?!" Thinking of this, the deputy sheriff was sweating profusely and said, "I'll do it right away. But could you please tell me what kind of trouble I'm in? A big one or small one?" "You tell me what it is if Marcus Field called you personally. Thank God, you only caused some trouble to his driver. If it was someone more important, you wouldn't be there!" After all, the deputy sheriff had worked here for many years, so the top leader added, "Do it right now. Marcus said that your man's call scared Miss Brown. Just handle this right now!" After hanging up the phone, the sheriff immediately order everyone to break off all on-going a
