This made Valeria confused, "Why do you say that? Are you gonna break up with me?" "No, what are you thinking about? It just occurred to me to ask you." Valeria stared at him for a while and sneered, "Yeah. I will ask you for my money and your life!" "Wow, you're so mean. You didn't even want Mason to pay you back, why are you so cruel to me?" "Because I will never leave you unless you betray me! And that will get yourself killed!" "It's an expression. Don't be so mean to me." William shook his head but thought, "A cold-hearted woman! Why I'm treated so differently? It can't be." With swollen mouth, Ashley naturally dare not go back to the hotel, so she called Julie to meet her out immediately. Soon, Julie was out and saw Ashley, whose face was distorted and broken, which turned her in a great fury. "Who did this to you?" "Valeria!" Ashley answered with a sad face. "Why did Valeria hit you? You provoked her again?" Julie felt
They quickened their pace and walked to the door of the ward. The bodyguards stopped them, "Master Howard needs rest. Madam, please go back!" Elizabeth looked at the expressionless face of the bodyguards, "Who make you here?" "Young Master William!" "William? Why did he make you guys stand guard outside the ward? How is Master Howard now?" "Master Howard is very well. Don't bother, madam. Please go back!" "This is too much! What does William mean to do this? We can't even see Master Howard any more?" Elizabeth ordered the bodyguard angrily, "Call William and tell him that I'm here." "Sorry, madam. We only take orders from Young Master William. You can call him yourself!" The bodyguard remained unmoved. How come Elizabeth had William's number? The bodyguards did not take her seriously at all. Although she was nobody in the Howard family, Elizabeth had always thought that she weighed more than William, who was always loafing around. Now tha
Elizabeth cocked her head to one side to avoid the cup, which fell to the floor and broke into pieces, spilling tea all over her. Mason, who followed Elizabeth, was startled, and cried, "Aunt Elizabeth!" Charles's eyes widened when he saw Mason. "Who the f*ck make you take advantage of the company to fight against Valeria? Get the f*cking in here and make it clear!" It was about Valeria, and that flurried Elizabeth and Mason. The rage in Charles made them tell how bad it was this time. Getting the door closed, Elizabeth and Mason walked up to Charles nervously. Mason was too afraid to speak, and Elizabeth broke the silence, "Honey, what happened?" "Drop the act. Mason really hasn't tell you? He would have dared to make use of the lawyer team and Public Relations Section to pay Internet trolls without your permission? How dare he use the company's money for his own purposes? Who the hell he thinks he is?" Charles was good at swearing, and Elizabeth di
Ashley picked up the phone and spoke in an affectedly sweet voice, "Mason!" "Tell me the name of the designer. Are you sure she's reliable?" "It's Athena White. We are classmates, we can count on her. Why?" "Valeria has Michael to recriminate us. Now the lawyer's letter has been sent to the company. Ashley, call that classmate right away and tell her to watch her mouth, or it will be a disaster." Getting Mason's words, Ashley was also panicked. She immediately called Athena and asked, "Athena, does anyone come to you?" "What's wrong?" Athena asked Ashley. "Mason tells me that Valeria has turned to Michael for a rebellion against us. He is very worried and has me ask about you." "Nobody has come to me." Athena replied. "Fine, Athena, we are regimental brothers. If someone comes to you, you must remember what I told you." Ashley warned. "Ashley, you make me nervous. This won't trouble me, right?" "No, I copied the draft from Val
William turned, took a step back in shock at the red-haired woman in front of him. Seeing that she had scared the handsome man, Abbie smiled sheepishly, "Sorry. I didn't mean to scare you. It's just that you are so handsome, so..." "I'm not interested in you!" William interrupted her. "No, you misunderstood me. I don't fall in love with you. Listen to me, I have a friend who is absolutely gorgeous. I think you two probably match well. You want to know her or not?" "No, I have a girlfriend!" "You can have a new one. Believe me, my friend is really beautiful and definitely a perfect match for you. Why don't you give me your number and meet her someday?" "No!" William frowned and walked away. Abbie was not to give up. This handsome guy was definitely able to make Valeria taken with a feeling of diffidence with that pimp. She wondered how his girlfriend was like while she was pretty sure it would't be as beautiful as Valeria! Abbie watched with re
Ronald was stunned for a moment. Valeria was telling the truth. Valeria had money of her own. If she was to compensate, she would have to use her money first. No wonder Valeria wasn't worried at all. She must have already thought about it a long time ago. Ronald was pissed off. "You unfilial daughter, good at nothing but spending money!" "I'll spend it as I'd like!" Valeria talked back, "You wish I leave it to the mistress and her daughter?" "You!" Ronald was so angry that he gasped. He tried to hit Valeria, but Valeria took a few steps back and looked at him with a cold face. "If you hit me, I will sue you! If you don't want to be embarrassed, you'd better control yourself!" Ronald was shocked and angry with Valeria being snarky. However, there was nothing he could do. He didn't want to get into such a bad relationship with Valeria. He tried his best to suppress his anger. "Your mother is not in the world any longer, and I'm still so you
Ashley and Mason had gone to see Athena not just to cheer her up, but to intimidate her into silence. They meant to make Athena know that the Howard family was behind them. In order to force Athena to join them, they used both coercion and seduction. Nobody knew that Athena had already been discovered by Marcus. Marcus was straightforward. He directly told her that they were clear about what she and Ashley had done. It would be smart of her to choose the right side or she could end up in prison. Athena never thought that Ashley was not only against Valeria, but also the Wolf Group. She was clever enough to know not to be enemy against Wolf Group. So she divulged everything right away. So the meeting with Athena was actually a trap. Athena brought a recording pen according to Marcus's instructions. The whole conversation was recorded, and also Mason and Ashley's ugliness. Athena handed the recording pen to Marcus, and Marcus immediately called the pol
When the interrogator arrived, Ashley had already peed in her pants. Seeing this, the interrogator scolded her loudly. "What's wrong with you? Are you crazy? Why didn't you call me if you needed the washroom? How embarrassing!" "I... I've called you, but no one heard me," Ashley said in shame and anger. "What are you crying for! Stop that and tell me everything if you want to leave this place. Or else you can just stay here!" The interrogator spoke to Ashley harshly. "You had better not think that you will be lucky enough to escape this! We all know what you've done, so you'd better start talking. Or else, we'll just send you to jail with the evidence we have now." Ashley did not answer and she continued crying. Seeing that she was not going to talk soon, the interrogator ignored her and left. Sitting in the interrogation room with her pants soaked, Ashley felt utterly disgusted and uncomfortable. Mason, who was in the room next to her, started
