Paisley breathed out in exasperation.
"What do you mean? Just what did you do to provoke Valeria?"
"Nothing.I just said you're close with William.What's wrong, Miss?" Danya asked in confusion.
"William went back to check on Valeria because she told him you bullied her! He didn't come back to
support you! Did you leave any evidence when you provoked Valeria?"Paisley fumed.
Danya replied hesitantly, "I...I think not."
"What do you mean by you think not? We have to be sure! Did you, or did you not leave any
evidence?"
Danya only realized the severity of Paisley's question and she mentally ran through the occasions she
provoked Valeria.
When she faked the call from Paisley in the morning, only Valeria and she were in the garden.
Then, when she faked the call with Paisley in front of Valeria's door in the afternoon, Valeria had
already sent everyone else in the villa away.
Naturally, there was no one around when she went to find Valeria just now.
Danya immediately replied, "No, there was no one else around.She could say for all she like, but she
would have no proof to support them"
Listening to the affirmative answer from Danya, Paisley heaved a sigh of relief, "Thank goodness!
She's more cunning than we expected.I won't be surprised if she tells William that you bully her.Danya,
you must be prepared for it."
"Don't worry, Miss.I left no bread crumbs.I'll just say she's lying when she said I started the quarrel
later.There's no proof of that, anyway."
"That's not enough.You have to clear your name as well," Paisley said through gritted teeth.
"Are you saying that we should frame Valeria?"
Danya asked, and she understood the hint immediately, "Sure, I'll go prepare now."
"Hurry up"
Paisley warned, "William should be back very soon."
Danya went to knock on Valeria's door again right after she hung up the phone.
Hearing Danya knocking on the door, Valeria rubbed her forehead.Why was she back? Did this woman
enjoy being scolded?
"Is she some sort of masochist?" She mumbled.
Valeria went to open the door, and she was met with Danya, who was very upset.
She asked, "Why are you here again? Are you back to find more trouble? You can live with the
suppressed anger?"
"Can you?" Danya rebuked angrily.
"l can’t.But I won't come back to ask for another round of scolding if I were you" Valeria shrugged.
"I know why you came back after running away like a loser just now.You're on a mission, aren't you?"
Without giving Danya a chance to speak, she continued to speak.
"You discussed with Paisley in your room, didn't you? You knew William wouldn't believe you and that
he's on his way back.So, what are you going to do next? Are you here to annoy me so that I'll hit you?
Or you'll pretend to be sick? So you can play the victim? At least that's what I could think of for now."
"You!" Danya gasped in surprise.
Indeed, what Valeria said was what she planned to do, but she didn't think Valeria would have guessed
that.
"You're right! I am trying to frame you.I want William to hate you, so what are you going to do about
that?"
"Oh my, I've never seen anyone sending themselves to their graves.It looks like I'll have to fulfill your
wish today, Valeria grinned smugly.Danya flew into a rage out of the humiliation.
She couldn't help cursing, "Valeria, you shameless b*tch! Your mother must have been a disgrace as
well! I'll end you one way or another!"
"You shouldn't have said that.No one can insult my mother that way.Since you're so persistent about
getting slapped, I wouldn't waste anymore time!"
Without giving Danya time to respond, Valeria slapped Danya hard across her face without any
hesitation.
The blow was so quick and strong that Danya's face went numb.
Then, Valeria asked, "Is one enough? If it's not, here's another one!"
As she spoke, she slapped Danya a few more times.When she was done, she crossed her arms and
scoffed, "Alright, you can start crying now."
Danya was about to burst into rage at Valeria’s arrogance.
With her face numbed from pain, she walked straight in the direction of the stairs.
Valeria called out after seeing that Danya didn't fight back.
"Wait! There's something I need to tell you."
"What else do you want to say? Valeria Brown I'm telling you, you're dead meat tonight!" Danya was
furious.
"Oh, come on! I know you're going to roll down the stairs next and say that I pushed you.Although I'm
interested to see you do that, I must remind you that there are surveillance cameras everywhere in the
villa.Look, there's one right there."
Valeria raised her hand and pointed at a corner.
"It works all year round, twenty-four-seven, and it'll dutifully record your performance.Okay, I'm
done.Feel free to fall down the stairs now"
Danya stopped mid-track.
Once again, Valeria had seen through her plan.
She was indeed planning to accuse Valeria of pushing her down the stairs after Valeria hit
her.However, she couldn't do as she planned now that Valeria had already figured out her plan.
Danya clenched her fists while controlling her temper.She wanted to hit Valeria, but she couldn't do it if
she was planning on making Valeria seem guilty.
It was the first time Danya was put in such a difficult situation since she ran amuck.
She had no choice other than to curse at Valeria, "B*tch, you'll pay for it!"
Danya’s words were left hanging at the tip of her tongue when she heard the sound of a car engine.
Valeria smiled sweetly at Danya and asked, "Why did you stop?"
There was no way Danya would continue.She didn't expect William to be back so quickly.So, she didn't
manage to get Valeria to do anything other than give her a few slaps.
What should she do now? Although her initial plans had failed, she could still make a scene out of the
slaps she received earlier.
At the thought of this, Danya started crying.
Her emotion had changed so quickly that even Valeria gaped in shock.
It was such a shame that Danya didn't pursue a career in acting.
Then, William's voice, accompanied with heavy footsteps, echoed from downstairs, "Valeria! Valeria?"
Valeria looked down from the rails and she saw William and Bobby in the living room.
She walked past Danya and strode downstairs while replying to William, "I'm here!"
Meanwhile, William had heard Danya’'s cries before he walked through the door.
He was worried that Valeria might be bullied by her.
Therefore, he was relieved when he saw that Valeria safe and sound.
At this moment, Danya, who stayed upstairs, cried louder.
William frowned in disgust and asked, "What's that demonic noises?"
