Valeria rolled her eyes, "Danya is putting on a show.She was arguing with me up until you came back a
moment ago."
"Why were you arguing?" William asked.
"She said she picked fights with me because she wanted me to leave you.Apparently, Paisley has a
crush on you."
Valeria was answering truthfully.
However, William took it as a joke.He put his arm around Valeria's waist and said, "Babe, not funny."
"I'm not joking"
Valeria pulled a straight face, "Danya said Paisley came here especially for you.She's here to seduce
and steal you away from me.
Danya freaked out when she heard Valeria complaining.But she was sure that she didn't leave any
evidence when she provoked Valeria earlier.
So, she had nothing to worry about.
At the thought of that, Danya took a deep breath and began another round of howling as she headed
downstairs.
"She's lying! Why would I say something so outrageous?!"
"Oh, now you deny it? Then who's the one that admitted it to me earlier?"
Valeria looked at Danya sarcastically.
Noticing that William was looking at her in disdain, Danya wiped away the tears.
"Why should I admit to things I didn't do?"
"Mr.Howard, I'm very grateful that you have taken Miss Anthony and me in.Since Miss Brown is your
girlfriend, I'll close one eye to how she's been treating me."
Valeria cocked her brows and scoffed, "Should I thank you for your generosity then? But I won't
condone your behaviors.So, please, let's tell William the purpose of your trip here and how you faked
being robbed just to come to stay in the villa.You also told me that Paisley is going to steal my man,
right? Why don't you elaborate that to William too?"
"What nonsense are you talking about, Miss Brown? I never said that! " Danya whined.
"Mr.Howard, I don't know what she's talking about.Miss Brown has been very wary of Miss Anthony
and me since we arrived here." Danya took a breath and continued.
"And things went out of hand after Miss Anthony went on a business trip with you.Miss Brown came to
me and said things that I didn't understand, mainly about how Miss Anthony came here to seduce
you...Miss Anthony is an educated lady! She wouldn't do things like this."
"How is being educated preventing her from stealing others' man? All that glitters is not gold.You must
know how your lady is like," Valeria sneered.
William frowned and stopped her, "Valeria!"
Danya’'s lips curled into a small smile when she saw William's furrowed brows.
He must have realized Valeria was someone unreasonable and immature.
Striking while the iron was hot, Danya added, "Mr.Howard, Miss Brown suspected the relationship
between our lady and you, so she targeted me at every turn.Look at the fingerprints on my face! Miss
Brown slapped me just because I defended Miss Anthony!"
William glimpsed at the marks on Danya’'s face, and he turned to Valeria to ask, "Did you hit her,
Valeria?"
Valeria was quick to deny, "Of course not! Why would I? She's bluffing.She'll do anything for her lady,
so I wouldn't be surprised if she slapped herself and wanted to frame me for it."Danya stared at Valeria
with wide eyes, "Are you shifting the blame on me now?"
"Why should I admit to things I didn't do?" Valeria rolled her eyes, fighting fire with fire.
Her attitude had thrown Danya off.
Earlier, Valeria said that there were surveillance cameras everywhere in the villa.
So, what happened earlier must have been recorded on the tape.
Danya wondered if Valeria lied about the cameras earlier.
Because Danya could have easily debunked Valeria’s excuse if she had asked to review the
surveillance footage.
If she really was lied to, it wouldn't be wise for Danya to suggest looking at the footage for proof.
She would need to explain why the surveillance system would come up in their conversation.
"Why would I hit myself? I'm not dumb."
"Of course you're not dumb.You're using tricks you've learned over the years of working with the
Anthony family on me now.You are framing me because you're afraid that I'd expose your true color."
Upon hearing Valeria's twisted fact, Danya was infuriated.
Since she dared not ask about the surveillance, there was nothing else she could do other than
emphasize how overly possessive and aggressive Valeria was.
Danya had already said all that she could in hopes that William would be upset at Valeria.
However, William only frowned.
The war of words between Valeria and Danya was starting to give him a headache.
Living with two women was as hard as living with three of them.
Naturally, William wasn't going to take Danya's side on this matter, but he couldn't stand to watch them
bicker as well.
In the end, it was Bobby who brought the quarrel to an end.
"Please, stop.Can't you see that Sir Williarn already has a headache? Since both of you insist that
you're right, why don't we go take a look at the surveillance footage to clear things up?"
Valeria shot daggers at Bobby, "What do you mean? Don't you believe me?"
Danya's eyes lit up at Valeria's reluctance, "Miss Brown, just admit that you've hit me.For the sake of
Mr.Howard, I'll let this go this once."
Valeria sneered, "Haven't you learned your lesson, Danya?"
Ignoring their dispute, Bobby had left to get the footage.
Meanwhile, Danya shuddered in fear at Valeria's cold smile.
Valeria had the same smile earlier when she was dealing with Danya.So, Danya had a bad feeling
about what would happen later after Bobby returned.
But she was assured very quickly, for she had heard engine sound on the driveway.
Paisley and Lucas were here.
As Paisley still looked a little pale, Lucas explained their situation as soon as they stepped into the
living room, "Sir William, Ms.Anthony regain consciousness as soon as you left.She insisted on coming
back when she heard that Danya had a conflict with Miss Brown."
"Oh, so you expect us to believe that you just so happened to wake up as soon as William left the
hospital?" Valeria pulled a smile at Paisley.
Paisley did not comment on Valeria's taunting.
Instead, she seemed shocked to see Danya’'s face and exclaimed, "Danya! What happened to you?"
"Miss Brown hit me!"
Danya immediately put on the show.
"She said you're seducing Mr.Howard! I couldn't possibly let her talk bad about you like that, so I
argued with her.After a few words, she immediately slapped me."
"Why...? This is too much!" Paisley frowned and she was visibly angered.
