Chapter 53
Ronald put on an embarrassed smile as he heard Valeria's blunt question.
"The main thing is to invite you to dinner.Of course, I have something else to ask you."
"Oh.” Valeria knew that it was just a cover to invite her to dinner.
With a deadpan face, she picked up her chopsticks and began to eat.
Ronald thought that she would continue to ask him about something, but he didn't expect that Valeria would start to eat without saying anything.
Suppressing his anger and unhappiness, he picked up a piece of shrimp for Valeria, "Well, I read on the news that you know the president of Wolf Group.Is it true?"
"Of course not” Valeria replied.
"I knew it.The president of Wolf Group never showed up and how could he possibly know you? Then why did you wear a custom-made dress at the feast that day?"
"The president of Wolf Group gave it to me."
Valeria replied It was very clear that Valeria had been invited to dinner and was treated well just because Ronald thought there was something between her and the president of Wolf Group.
"But didn't you say you don't know him?"
Ronald was a little confused.
"Yeah, I really don't know him.’
"Then why did he customize the dress for you?"
"How would I know? Maybe he's got nothing to do.’ Valeria continued to eat the shrimp without changing her expression.
Valeria's story was so flawless that Ronald couldn't get the information he wanted.
He was a little worried.
In the past, Valeria was a simple, kind person who would answer any question he asked without reservation.
But now she had learned to put him off.
It really pissed him off.
Ronald was even much unhappier.
He tried to control his anger, "Valeria, tell me the truth.Is that dress a trick of Richard and you?"
"No."
Valeria got tired of his tentative attitude.
If Ronald really regarded her as his daughter, how could he be so careful to test her.
He was always on his guard against her.
Ha ha, the father and the daughter were wary of each other .
How pathetic! "Dad, if you just want to know about the dress, I can tell you clearly that it was Marcus, the CEO of Wolf Group who asked me to wear it.He said that it was the president of Wolf Group who custom-made it for me.I don't know him and I don’t know what he meant.It's a happy thing that someone gave me the dress, so I put it on.That's it"
"So you really don't know the president of Wolf Group?"
The smile on Ronald's face disappeared by more than half.
"Yes, I not only don't know the president of Wolf Group, but also don't know Richard well.''
She not only did not know the president of Wolf Group, but also had no relationship with Richard.
If so, weren't his worries and hopes become a joke? Ronald stared at Valeria for a few minutes.
She ate the food in front of her with a calm look, but Ronald himself was on tenterhooks.
When he came, he had too much expectation and thought that there was something between Valeria and the president of Wolf Group.
In any case, it was good that she had a relationship with the CEO of Wolf Group, Marcus.
In this way, he could build a relationship with Marcus through Valeria, so that it would be convenient for him to do what he wanted.
Now, Ronald had a feeling of being deceived for Valeria had denied everything. Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org exclusive © material.
He tried to control himself from swearing at Valeria and acting aggressively.
As Valeria ate, she took in his ever-changing expressions.
She inexplicably felt sad.She lost interest in the food in front of her.
Valeria put down her chopsticks and said, "I'm done.Do you have anything else to do?"
"No."
Said Ronald, in a very different tone from when he arrived.
"Then I'll leave."
Valeria stood up, picked up her bag, and left quickly.
When she walked out of Szechuan Restaurant, she was extremely depressed.
She sat in the car for a long time before she drove to the company.
When she entered the company, she unexpectedly met Mason, whose face looked a little haggard.
He is no longer as elegant as he used to be.
He was stunned when he saw Valeria, and then he was filled with anger.
It was because of Valeria that he was humiliated to the extreme and had a mental breakdown.
But Valeria looked refreshed.
How could Mason feel better? He strode over to Valeria and gnashed his teeth, "How dare you come here?"
Valeria felt ridiculous when she saw his fierceness, "Mr.Eich, I'm still an employee here so far.Is there anything wrong?"
"You won't be an employee here soon.I'll tell the personnel department to fire you right away.”
After breaking up with Mason, Valeria had not planned to stay here any longer, but Mason's attitude annoyed her.
She sneered, "Mason, I am an official employee of the company.How can you fire me if I don't do anything wrong?"
"I'm the manager here! Valeria, you are in the Howard Family's company, not somewhere else.It's a piece of cake for me to fire an employee like you."
"Ha! Let's wait and see,’ Valeria said with a sneer.
Seeing that Valeria didn't take him seriously at all, Mason was extremely angry, "Your dismissal will be announced soon.Security, get this woman out of here right now!"
"Don't worry, I'll leave right now! But Mason, I'm afraid you'll be in serious trouble the next time we meet!"
Valeria gave the man, whom she had loved for several years, a contemptuous look and walked away.
She didn't want to have anything to do with Mason anymore.She didn't want anything to do with Mason anymore.
If Mason had had a better attitude towards her, she might have considered resigning.
It was better for her not to see the jerk anymore.
But now that Mason had taken the initiative to provoke her and expel her due to personal grievances.
It was different now.
Valeria was not one to be pushed around easily.
She was a formal employee.
With her employment contract, there was no way for Mason to fire her! After Valeria left the the Howard family, she drove back to the hospital.
In the ward, Marcus was talking to William.
"Master Howard is hospitalized today.It is said that his blood pressure suddenly overshot and he fainted.I've inquired about it.He's not very well.” The doctor wants him to stay in the hospital for a few days.
William was a little surprised, "He fainted? Does that mean he's seriously ill?"
"Yes, Charles kept the news a secret and didn't intend to tell you at all.His purpose is self- evident.Mr.Howard, what are you going to do next?”
"If he didn't want me to know so much, how could I do what he wanted? Tell someone to announce my return to China, and I will go and see Master Howard right away.’
"If so, wouldn't Miss Brown know your identity?"
Marcus reminded.
William shook his head with a smile and said, "That little bunny is so silly and cute.She still thought that I'm a pimp in Climax Space.She wouldn't have thought otherwise."
Marcus couldn't help but laugh, "Miss Brown is quite cute, but a piece of paper can't cover a fire.She's gotta know soon or later, and if she finds out you lied to her..."
"I never said I was a pimp.She thought so.I didn't lie to her."
As the two spoke, Marcus's phone rang.
He picked up and the bodyguard's voice came, "Miss Brown is back!"
"Mr.Howard, Miss Brown is back.I'm leaving now.I'll arrange for the news of your return immediately.You'll be able to visit Master Howard tomorrow."
