After Abbie hung up the phone, she immediately called Richard to tell him about it.
Richard was very surprised when he heard Valeria's request.
"Are you sure that Valeria told you this?"
"I'm very sure! Bro, this situation is extremely urgent.Her father isn't a good person, so you have to help
her.Otherwise, she'll be in deep trouble!"
Abbie didn't know what was going on, but she knew that she had to help Valeria.
Richard laughed and replied, "Alright, I got it.You don't have to worry too much, and you should ask
Valeria to take it easy, too.It won't be a problem"
Abbie was relieved when she saw him agree to Valeria’s request easily.
She hung up the phone and reported to Valeria.
On the other hand, Richard hung up the phone and immediately called William, "William, your wife
wants me to freeze the company’s assets for her.Did you know that?"
William was very surprised.
It seemed like Valeria knew of Ronald's plans as he had just given the same order.
Why did she not tell him after finding out about it? Did she not take him seriously? William felt annoyed,
"I know! I've already arranged for someone to do it."
"So it's none of my business then? William, you're such a coward.Why aren't you revealing your identity
to her even though you've been together for such a long time? This way, Valeria won't be so anxious
whenever she's in trouble!"
"Do you think I don't want to? I told her yesterday, but she thought it was a joke!"
William was angry when he recalled the scene of Valeria rolling on the bed as she was laughing with
her belly in her arms.
"She doesn't believe your real identity?"
"Yeah, I guess I will remain a playboy to her after all" Williarn sighed.
"It's your fault for relying on your sex appeal to make a living when you can obviously do it with your
capabilities instead.You deserve this!"
Richard took pleasure in William's misery.
William was depressed, "Don't laugh at me.Can you help me find out what she knows, and why she did
she decide to freeze the company’ s assets suddenly? I think Hardy might have suggested this to her."
"Ask your own wife then! Why are you asking an outsider like me for help? Aren't you embarrassed
about it?"
William rubbed his forehead and said, "She would've told me the truth if she could.Now that I think
about it, it's all my dad's fault."
"Ronald met my father secretly last night.My people didn't hear any news because Hardy got in the
way.I suspect that he heard something and then proceeded to tell Valeria about it, hence she's wary of
me now."
"Your father is so cruel! What did Valeria ever do to him? Why does he treat her like this?"
Richard was also very surprised.
"Honestly, Valeria is a hundred times better than the flirty b*tches you were with previously.He ignored
them completely, but now he's picking on her...There must be something wrong!"
"I know something's up.You should try asking Valeria for more details first"
William answered with a headache.
"Do you think she'll tell me if she’s hiding it from you too? Ask your woman yourself! I'm not going to
ask her about it, so I can't help you “
"Can't you ask Abbie for help? Valeria tells her everything.You better figure things out right now, or
else, don't blame me for something to happen!"
"D*mn, this is the first time I've met someone being so cocky when asking for a favour.Please, do I owe
you anything?"
Richard hung up the phone while cursing and he called Abbie again, "
Abbie, what did Ronald do? Why did Valeria decide to freeze the company assets?"
"I don't know the details either.I just received a call from her asking me to ask you for help."
"Go and find out about it now, but don't tell her I asked you to do so, alright?"
"Bro, what are you trying to do?" Abbie asked alertly.
"I need to know the reason why she needs my help, right? I'll be in trouble if I end up in jail because of
something she did! This is a serious matter and it involves the court.You don't want to see me going to
jail because of a fake contract, do you?"
Richard exaggerated the issue so that Abbie would tell him what Valeria said, "Let me know what she
says, alright?"
Abbie was also worried about him, "I have a dinner appointment with her tonight, so I'll tell you what
she says."
Valeria had entrusted Abbie to ask for Richard's help and Richard had agreed to help as well.
Therefore, she had to work out a plan to keep both of them safe as she did not want accidents to
happen to any of them.
Ronald had just met with Hayden last night, so he probably had no time to plan anything else today.
She had to make a move to deal with the official seal of the Brownard Group before anything could
happen.She had wanted to steal the official seal so that Ronald could not seal the deal in time.
However, she had thought of a better idea thanks to the news that she had read on her mobile phone
just now.
Stealing the seal would alert Ronald too much, so she would change the seal instead.
She would make a fake and identical Brownard Group seal and swap it with the real one.
This way, even if Ronald signed the contract with Hayden, the contract would still be useless because
of the fake seal.
Valeria had been deep in thought when her phone rang.It was a call from William.
"Honey, shall we have lunch together?"
"I think I don't have time this afternoon, and I have an appointment with Abbie at night.You can join us if
you don't mind eating together with her, but you'll have to wait until tomorrow otherwise" Valeria replied.
"Are you busy now?" William asked deliberately.
"I'm a little busy."
"Can you tell me what you're busy with? I might be able to help you with it"
"You won't be able to help with my company's issues anyways"
Valeria replied as she was about to replicate the company seal, "I'll call you back later, honey."
William reminded her, "I know a lot of people, and I have a lot of connections.I'll definitely be able to
help you if you tell me about your problems."
"It's alright, I can deal with these minor problems myself,"
Valeria wanted to tell William the truth, but she couldn't do so as this problem involved Hayden.
She was still doubting Hardy's words, and she wanted to tell him about it only when she had found out
the truth.
William felt upset as Valeria was insisting on hiding the truth for him.
It felt terrible as she did not trust him at all.He put on a bitter smile and hung up the phone before
rubbing his forehead as he felt a headache come in.
Bobby called him after a while, "Sir William, I found Miss Brown using the location on her mobile
phone.She is now on the side of Fort Street."
"Why is she there?" William asked.
"She seems to be looking for something.Wait, Sir, she has entered a store that makes seals."
"Store that makes seals? What is she planning to do there?"
William was stunned for a moment as a thought struck him.
Did Valeria come up with this idea on her own? He did not expect her to be so cunning.
Women were dangerous animals after all.
William chuckled and replied, "I know what she is going to do.She must have gone to replicate her
company's official seal.Make sure you follow her and keep her safe."
"Yes, sir!"
