    Chapter 147


    Valerie thought she had already given her West to her mother, but she could never satisfy her


    mother. When her mother allowed Marcus to touch her today, it finally shattered herst hope.


    Since that was the case, they might as well split up and live their own lives.


    Although severing their mother–daug


    rtionship was a little impulsive, at this moment, Valerie finally felt that the shackles she had been


    carrying for 20 years had disappeared. She could finally heave a sigh of relief.


    It would be a lie to say that Valerie was not sad. However, Matthew standing beside her today gave


    her a lot of courage. His chest was firm and broad. She was very grateful for his appearance today.


    She wanted to borrow his shoulder to lean on slightly.


    Matthew replied, “Congrattions.”


    Valerie leaned on Matthew’s shoulder and could not help butugh. As expected, Matthew always


    said unexpected stuff. If it were anyone else, they would either scold her for being an ingrate or


    persuade her to go back and apologize to Ruth. Only Matthew would never give her any moral


    pressure. Her eyes crinkled withughter. “Thank you.”


    Although it was a little exaggerated that Valerie was penniless, it was true that she owed online


    loans. She did not have much money left.


    However, it was not like Valerie had not thought of a backup n. She would be working for Noria


    Group the day after tomorrow. Noria Group’s ie was almost double that of Arcton Cars. It


    would save a lot of expenses if she spent sparingly. Furthermore, she would not have to give her


    mother money anymore, nor help out with the family. Coupled with living with Matthew, she also


    saved on


    rent.


    Based on this, even before the child was born, Valerie could still save a considerable sum of


    money. In addition, she had always paid social security. After giving birth, she could receive a


    maternity allowance of at least 6,000 dors.


    Money. Valerie really craved money. She had to work hard from now on. At the same time, she had


    to build a good rtionship with Matthew to ensure she could

    always live rent–free.


    Matthew noticed Valerie’s gaze and could not help but look puzzled. He did not realize he was


    treated as a freendlord by Valerie.


    Valerie immediately smiled and shook her head. “I’m fine, Mr. Grant. It’s great to meet you.


    Something good always happens.”


    aom him. However, when he


    Matthew felt that Valerie was hiding someth heard what she said, he did not probe further. Instead,


    his heart skipped a beat. He was used to being treated like the King of Hell and others being afraid


    of him. This was the first time someone had said that something good always happened after


    meeting him.


    But it was good that Valerie was smiling. Matthew preferred to see her smile. And he could see that


    her smile was genuine today, not her usual business–like fake smile. “Shall we go home?”


    Valerie tilted her head happily. “Yes.” No matter how big the matter was, it was better to eat, drink,


    and be happy every day.


    However, after returning to the car, Valerie was in a dilemma. She held the broken ruby bracelet.


    She did not recognize the quality of the bracelet and could only ask Matthew carefully. “Mr. Grant, is


    this bracelet expensive? How much is it worth? Is the gold bracelet enoughpensation? Why


    don’t I give it to you?”


    Valerie did not have much money now. She carefully handed over the gold bracelet that she had


    given Ruth, which Ruth thought was a fake.


    Matthew nced at Valerie indifferently. He took the gold bracelet and put it on her wrist. He said,


    “Since you’re happy today, take this gold bracelet as a reward for yourself. As for this bracelet…”


    Top–grade rubies were priced at 600 thousand dors at the auction house. There was only one


    pair in the world, and they were all kept in the Grant family collection room. In other words, Ruth


    had smashed at least 600 thousand dors.


    However, Matthew did not n to take back what he had nned to give away. Now that the ruby


    bracelet was broken and the remaining ruby bracelet was now a lone item, the price would


    increase. To his family, the loss was nothing.

    On the other hand; the gold vase that Ruth priced above all else was different. Matthew was a little


    curious. If Ruth kw the true price of the gold vase, he wondered if she would faint.


    Back in the neighborhood, after Valerie got out of the car, Matthew took out his phone and dialed a


    number….
