Valerie was anxious because she could not book a taxi. When she heard Matthew’s words, she was
first stunned for a moment before feeling a sense of wannth.
As if grabbing onto a lifeline, she quickly told him about Katherine’s situation. “Mr. Grant, can I be
so bold as to ask you to help me out?” she said. “It may be a hassle, but I really need to make a trip
to Vomez”
With that said, she saw Matthew lowering his head silently.
Valerie immediately felt a little ufortable, thinking. I know he is busy with work. Besides, he is
driving his boss’s car. I should not bother him during his working hours. Plus, whether Dn would
make a move on Katherine is just my guess after all!
With that in mind, Valerie was mentally prepared to be rejected. She knew that Matthew was
someone who disliked hassle.
“Vomez is 110 miles from here, Matthew said. “It takes two hours to reach there. Can you make it in
time!”
As he spoke, he lifted his phone. It was only then that she realized that he wasn’t rejecting her
when he lowered his head earlier, Rather, he was checking the navigation on his phone.
Matthew’s expression remained cold, and her voice did not have much fluctuation, but for Valerie at
that moment, there was an inexplicable sense of security. It instantly warmed her whole being.
She quickly nodded and said, “I can make it there in time. I can make it there in time?
Matthew simply said. “Get in the car.
“Sure!” Valerie hurriedly replied, But the car that had broken down still needed someone to take
care of it, so one of the male colleagues went to Vomer with her while the other one stayed behind
to keep an eye on the car.
As for Dn’s wife, she felt that Valerie was being unreasonable and refused to follow Valerie no
matter what was said. She even threatened that she wanted to go back toin about Valerie
and make her lose her job.
Valerie knew that even if Dn’s wife way brought along, she would no longer cooperate in calling
Dn, so Valerie let her be. After Valerie and her male colleague got into the Land Rover. Matthew
stepped on the elerator. The car sped on the highway toward Vomez.
After getting into the car, Valerie called Katherine again, but there was still no answer.
Matthew calmly analyzed the situation for her, saying, “Don’t be overly concerned. Judging from
what you said earlier, there are lots of people ar the wedding reception, so everything should be
fine.”
Valerie nodded. Then, she could not help but force a sanile, saying, “Mr. Grant, do you think I’m
making a big fuss over a minor issue? There’s clearly no basis for that, and it’s just my
spection, yet 1 sull insist on going over to take a look to put my mind at ease.”
But Matthew said, “Since she’s your friend, it’s only right that you care about her. If something really
were to happen and you regretted not taking action, it would be toote for regrets”
Valerie thought so too. She didn’t dare to take chances
“By the way, you should still be at work, right?” she said. “You drive to Yomez with me right away.
Will Mr. Hudson be upset if he finds out? Should you let him know?”
“It’s fine.” Matthew said. “He’s out of town on a business trip and doesn’t need this car. I’ll let him
knowter. His gaze was indifferent, thinking, Charles won’t have the guts to object
Valerie breathed a sigh of relief and said, “Thank you, Mr. Grant
“No problem.” Manhew replied.
As the two of them spoke, the male colleague in the back seat was puzzled. He thought, Didn’t
Valerie mention earlier that this guy is her husband? I’ve seen married couples who are not close,
but this level of unfamiliarity is a first for me. But Valerie is truly something. Even the husband of a
good–looking person is so handsome! But for some reason, I can’t shake off the feeling that
Valerie’s husband is somewhat familiar. I feel like I’ve seen him somewhere before…

The male colleague was deep in thought when Valerie interrupted him.
Although Dn’s wife didn’t manage to trick Dn into revealing his exact location, the scope had
at least narrowed down from Vomez to Resburn County
Smaller locations had their advantages. There were not many stores rted to weddings. Valerie
changed her phone’s location settings to Resburri County. Then, she used various apps to search
for highly ranked flower shops and cake shops in Resburn County. After that, she and her male
colleague divided the work, calling each store une by one ording to dicir rankings and asking if

significant orders today.
Unknowingly, nightfall gradually descended outside the window. The sky was dark, and one could
almost hear the sound of the wind whooshing
by
Valerie hurried out in the afternoon and was only wearing a thin shirt. Just as she was wondering
why she did not feel cold, she realized that Matthew had quietly turned on the heater at some point.
