Scratching his head, Lucas said, "Sir William didn't expose to Miss Brown who he really is.So Miss
Brown thinks that he's just a gigolo from a nightclub"
"What! That's ridiculous!"
"Miss Brown even sold her jewelry worth 100 million dollars to redeem Sir William from the nightclub."
"That is simply absurd! How could the grandson of the Howard family be thought as something so
degrading!" Hayden said angrily and was overwhelmed with fury.
"Does William even look like a gigolo? With his posture and demeanor, no one would ever think he was
one.That woman, Valeria Brown, must have done it on purpose’ Hayden didn't believe that Valeria
would be so generous to a mere gigolo, "She must have known who William is so she did this to get
close to him"
"Uhm...I don't think so"
Lucas hesitated and said, "Miss Brown seems to be naive.She asked to break up after knowing his real
identity.”
"She's probably just playing hard to get.I know what games women like her are playing at.If she really
wanted a break-up, why did she still go to an apartment with him? Why isn't she making things clear?"
Hayden snorted.
"She took him back when Sir William got drunk.I am not too sure about the other details."
"Well, you don't have to speak up for her.I can already guess that Valeria Brown is somewhat
cunning.She tried to get close to William and made something happen between them.After all, William
is so much better than the other guy she was with"
Everything Hayden could think of was what a cunning woman Valeria was.
It made him burn with anger.
"Why did William like such a tricky woman? It's making me so angry! Alright, it's time to pick up our
pace and go with our plan.Let's not wait any longer.Arrange a meeting with William and the Anthony
family's daughter”
At dawn, Valeria was woken up by William in a daze.Despite how she tried to reject him, William was
persistent to have sex with her.
William seemed to be full of energy and he didn't even get tired.
Valeria could not find the strength to refuse him.
So she bit on his shoulder hardly with anger and hatred.
Even after she bit him, he did not let her go until half an hour later.
Valeria felt as if her entire body was about to be torn apart.So she laid on the bed lifelessly without
moving an inch.
Looking outside, she saw that the sun had already risen.
However, she was too tired to get up.
Against her will, she fell back into a deep slumber.
After what felt like an eternity, Valeria's ringing phone woke her up.
Retrieving it, she saw that it was Abbie, "Hey, it's almost 12 o'clock.Do you want to have lunch together
?"
"Give me a second” Valeria answered lazily.
"What's the matter? Are you still sleeping?"
"Don't even talk about it.I am dead tired," Valeria said.
As she sat up, she felt sore all over her body.
At the other end, Abbie was still chatting away, "Does that mean you haven't heard about what
happened to your dad?"
"What happened to him?"
"Your dad brought his mistress and daughter back home yesterday, and now everyone's talking about
it.They are calling him shameless for letting his mistress stay in the house of his late wife.Also, they
dug out that he was just a guy from the countryside that married a city woman.He must be fuming with
anger now”
"Who's behind this?"
Valeria was shocked.
"Who else could it be? I think the only person capable of this would be William.He must have done it to
avenge you" Abbie guessed.
"Why didn't he ask me before doing this?"
Valeria was a little angry with this.
"I'm sure he was only trying to help you.William must be angry with how badly your dad treats you while
he treats them like queens.To be honest, I can understand why he did that.He looks so much more
manly now’
"Manly? This is outrageous.Let me go check out what is happening.Bye!"
Valeria immediately searched for the news of her father online.
‘Ronald Brown, the country bumpkin who turned into a city gentleman, by flirting with Natalie Garcia’.
Seeing the headlines of the newspaper, Valeria shook with anger.
Ronald was still her biological father no matter what.
Even though they were constantly arguing, it was wrong to let him get scolded by everyone online.
Besides her father getting criticized, her late mother, Natalie, would also be gossiped about.
It was fine if her father was the only one criticized.
However, she could not bear it if her mother was also humiliated.Her mother was gentle, kind, talented,
and smart.
That was how she earned the trust and respect of the other wealthy families.
And now, they were criticizing and gossiping about someone that had already passed away.
Obviously, Valeria was angry about it.
In anger, Valeria put on her clothes and went out of the room to look for William.
Just as she reached the living room, the apartment door opened and he walked in.
He held a Wolf Group bag in his hand and smiled sweetly at Valeria when he saw her, "You're awake,
I've bought some delicious food for you"
"I don't wanna eat what you bought! William Howard, you've gone overboard this time.Why didn't you
ask me before posting that news online?"
Valeria demanded angrily.
William immediately understood that she thought it was him who did that.
He quickly explained, "It wasn't me! You've got the wrong idea."
"Who else could it be then? It's so shameless of you to decide that on your own.Don't you know what
would happen by doing this?"
"It really isn't me! Listen to me"
William was about to explain, but Valeria refused to listen.She could not bear the thought of her
virtuous and gentle mother being criticized by the public.
Thinking about it made her fume with rage.
"What gives you the right to do this? Who do you think you are? You can make the headlines every day
since you're so thick-skinned.My parents are not like you, they need to keep their dignity and honor.If
you post things like this, how is he going to face others in the future?"
William had specially gone to Wolf Group early in the morning to get food for her.But now, he was
scolded for no reason the moment he entered the house.She also mentioned that the issue of him
being popular in the headlines before was no better than Ronald.
How could such a cunning man be compared to him? This sparked anger in William and his expression
immediately turned dark, "You think that your dad still deserves any dignity and honor?"
"Why not? He's not like you, a womanizer that doesn't take any responsibilities.All you are capable of is
flirting around with women, drinking at bars, gambling, and you don't even have a job.All you know is to
live off your..."
Valeria stopped short when she saw William's face turn ghastly.
He looked at her with an icy glare, and she couldn ‘t get the words out of her mouth.
"Go on” William gritted his teeth and stared at her, "Why did you stop?"
"Fine, I'll say it.lf you dare to do such a thing, you should not be afraid of others talking about it.Stop
acting all high and mighty.I'm telling you, stop interfering in my matters.You had better give me an
explanation about this.Or else, I won't let you off so easily."
"What kind of explanation do you want?"
"Remove the headlines immediately! And then get someone to apologize for this.."
Before Valeria could finish her sentence, William threw the bag he was holding on the ground.
"Crash!" Valeria jumped in shock.
The soup inside had spilled all over the floor.
William's eyes were cold and dark.
"Are you threatening me? Valeria Brown, what do you take me as? Someone you can order around?
Yes, I always listen to you and do as you say.But that's because I like you.That doesn't mean that you
can accuse me like this.You have angered me.That is impossible for me to apologize."
After saying that, he walked out and slammed the door loudly.
