Meanwhile, William wasn't as angry as Danya had imagined.He immediately went to call Valeria.He
knew Valeria very well.
She could even tolerate vicious and despicable people like Ashley and Mason.
Why would she inexplicably try to fight Paisley's butler? William articulated his thoughts before he
called Valeria, to which she answered almost instantly, "Yes?"
"Valeria, did something happen between you and Ms.Anthony's butler?"
"How did you know?"
Valeria retorted, "Did she call you to complain about it?"
"Yes.She said that you seem displeased with her and that you deliberately ask the maid to only cook
spicy food so she couldn't eat .You even send the maid home and cleared out all the ingredients in the
fridge on purpose.Is that true?"
"Are you questioning me?" Valeria asked.
"No, I know you're not that petty.Did something else happen?"
"That's right, I'm not petty.But even you'd hit back when you're challenged again and again"Valeria
fumed.
"Let me tell you, that Danya Moore is really too much.She provoked me first.She was insinuating things
with her words.I can’t hold back my anger any more! She deserves it, you know" William frowned at
Valeria's words.She wouldn't lie to him, so it would mean that Danya had really started the feud
between them.
Who did she think she was? William was especially protective of his friends and family.
He would let no one, not even someone from an influential family, harass the people he loved and
wanted to protect.
A servant like Danya had really crossed the line.
William felt disgusted.
Paisley had saved Hayden's life before.
Thus, he invited Paisley and Danya to live with them as a token of appreciation.He didn't think that a
mere servant would have the nerve to speak ill of Valeria to him.
William immediately comforted Valeria, "Don't be mad.I didn't think she'd brazenly complain to me after
she provoked you first.It seems like the Anthony family is really bad at cultivating their employees’
manners."
Valeria scoffed, "A mere servant like that probably picked it up from the person she serves.
Birds of the same feather flock together"
At the same time, Paisley, who pretended to be unconscious on the hospital bed, listened to every
word William said.
She thought William was going to chide Valeria for being immature and irresponsible, but who knew he
would point fingers at the Anthony family.
Paisley's heart sank.
Danya told her that Valeria was aggravated and that they had the upper hand.
However, it certainly didn't seem like it Yet, there was nothing she could do about it because she should
be unconscious at the moment.She was on edge, and she could only hope that Lucas would help them
and say something.
Lucas, also in the same wardroom, heard William's conversation with Valeria and he immediately
interjected with a smile.
"Mr.Howard, Danya has worked for the Anthony family for so many years.I think, at the very least, she
should be able to differentiate between what's right and wrong."
"Are you saying that Valeria lied?" William peered at Lucas.
Lucas laughed warily at the death glare that he received from William, but he had to stand firm on his
ground.
"We still don't know the whole story.Anyway, I think Miss Brown should order dinner for Danya for the
time being.After all, Danya is Ms.Anthony's butler.It's inappropriate to let her starve at our villa."
William sneered and retorted, "Are you out of your mind? Why would Valeria help the person who had
humiliated her again and again? Even you wouldn't do that, let alone her, who's from a respectable
family."
"Uhm...I..."
William's words had silenced Lucas.
On the other end of the line, Valeria heard the exchanges between William and Lucas.She almost
laughed out loud in ridicule.She couldn't believe that Danya actually had the nerve to ask William to
push her into ordering dinner for Danya.
Fortunately, William was on Valeria's side.
Valeria would definitely throw a fit if he asked her to order a meal for Danya, as per Lucas's suggestion.
William shifted his attention back to Valeria after he scolded Lucas.He soothed, "You calm down, okay?
I'll come back with Bobby right away."
"I thought you're staying there to keep Ms.Anthony company?" Valeria asked.
"Ms.Anthony is fine.Leaving just Lucas here would be enough" William said dismissively.
Since the doctor said Paisley would be fine after some rest, William was eager to go back to Valeria.
William immediately made arrangements with Lucas after he hung up the call since there was no big
issue with Paisley.
"I'm worried about leaving Valeria alone at home, so Bobby and I are going back at once.Lucas, you
stay here with Ms.Anthony"
"Uh...I don't think that would be appropriate, Mr.Howard."
"What's the matter?" William asked.
"Ms.Anthony is sick because she came to help us.It'll be hard for me to explain to her if you leave her
like this."
"That's why I leave you here.You've been working by Grandpa's side for decades.Don't tell me you
can't even do such a simple task?" William sneered.
Lucas was flustered when he had his ability doubted by William.
Leaving no time for Lucas to react, William turned around and gestured to Bobby, "Let's go"
Then, they left the wardroom, and Lucas could do nothing about it.
Paisley also did not need to pretend anymore.She opened her eyes and got up from the bed, asking,
"What are we going to do next?"
Lucas had no idea, either.
Everything was going according to their plan, but it seemed like Danya messed up over at the villa.So,
he asked, "Do you know about what Danya did?"
Paisley hesitated, and Lucas frowned at her reaction.
He said sternly, "Ms.Anthony, you saw how angry Mr.Howard is.I need to know what you've
done.Otherwise, how are we going to explain it if Mr.Howard found out?"
"l asked her to annoy Valeria, but I don’t know how she did it.By right , she should be able to handle
such a simple task," Paisley answered warily.
Paisley had never taken Valeria seriously.
In her eyes, Valeria was someone who was just a trophy wife.However, Danya was different.
She had been working for Paisley for many years, and Paisley knew how neatly Danya handled things.
Danya shouldn't have failed at such a simple task.
"Call her and ask about it" Lucas urged.
So, Paisley called Danya as told but Danya didn't answer the phone.
Paisley was a little tense.She couldn't help but worry if something happened to Danya.
It wasn't like her to not pick up a call from Paisley.
"I think we should go back and see what's going on for ourselves" Paisley suggested.
There was no other way that Lucas could choose.
So, he agreed, "Okay.I'll go arrange for our leave later."
Meanwhile, in the villa, Danya was anticipating the meal that Valeria would order for her after being
scolded by William.
She was exhilarated just at the thought of Valeria being told off by William.
Therefore, she left her room to walk to Valeria's door and waited patiently.
Then, she finally heard Valeria's voice.
"Fine, I won't be angry.I'll order food for Danya right away as you wish, okay?"
Danya almost jumped in joy when she heard Valeria yielded in.
She snorted and whispered, "Not as strong-willed as you acted, are you? She must grasp the chance
to poke fun at Valeria later when the food arrived.Just as Danya thought Valeria was going to order
food for her, Valeria made another phone call again.Instead of the foreign language, Danya overheard
Valeria spoke in English, "Hey Abbie, guess what happened today.It's so funny.I must let you know."
Wasn't she supposed to order food? Why did she call her friend instead?
