    Chapter 166


    Matthew was still as arrogant as ever. He said coldly. That’s none of your business.


    Louis was angered by his attitude. “Angel and Lindsey really misjudged you back then!“)]


    Valerie frowned.


    This was not the first time she had heard the name Lindsey.


    Thest time Sophia was around. Matthew mentioned it once. Although he imed to be merely


    helping out at someone’s request, he treated Lindsey like a sister. However, with Valerie’s intuition


    and the scent of perfume left on Matthew’s coat, Valerie guessed that Lindsey might have feelings


    for Matthew.


    She was already a little overwhelmed by this.


    Why was there another person called Angel now!


    Moreover, Valerie did not know if it was her imagination, but when Louis said this name, Matthew’s


    eyes were even gloomier than before.


    “Who exactly was that Miss Angel? Valerie said.


    Valerie looked at the two of them in confusion, especially Matthew. How many good sisters did he


    have! She really knew nothing about her husband.


    Valerie felt ade strange and had mixed feelings


    Louis then shifted the conversation and thanked her again. “Miss Warren, thanks for your help with


    Katherine. If you ever encounter any trouble in the future, feel free toe to the Santos Group and


    look for me. Everyone at the Santos Group will do their utmost to assist you.


    “Mr. Santos, you’re too kind. I’m just a friend of Katherine’s, so it’s only natural to help. Valerie


    smiled, but her mind was still filled with confusion from earlier. “Why did Matthew’s expression turn


    so serious when he heard the name Angel? Valerie thought.


    Moreover,


    time.


    1. r. Matthew said that he did not know Louis, but from their conversation just now, it sounded


    like they had known each other for a long


    Just as she was feeling puzzled, Louis’s phone suddenly rang. His expression changed when he


    heard the call.


    “Katherine is missing” He came here to deal with Caleb and sent bodyguards to Katherine’s


    apartment to pick her up. couldn’t find her


    However, the bodyguards


    “What?” Valerie was shocked. She quickly called Katherine, but as before, she didn’t pick up


    Considering Katherine’s recent state of distress and disappearance at such a critical moment,


    Valerie spected the worst Matthew said, “Don’t be nervous. Think about where Katherine usually


    goes.”


    Matthew’s voice remainedposed and calm, but Valerie couldn’t shake off her unease. She was


    still deeply pondering Katherine’s possible whereabouts when her phone suddenly rang. Seeing it


    was Julian calling, Valerie answered, intending to exin that she was currently unavable.


    However, she waspletely taken aback when Julian informed her that he had seen Katherine.


    “What? Really?” Valerie was shocked


    Julian’s voice was affirmative as he said, “Valerie, I recognized that girl I remembered seeing her in


    your social media posts. She looked distraught, and I wanted to ask if she needed help. But she


    didn’t say a word and just went straight to the rooftop of the opposite building. It seemed like she


    was in a very desperate state. Hurry over here!”


    ?? ? ??? ??????


    As soon as he said this, the expressions of the people changed. They y quickly left the bar and


    rushed to Asnd Street.


    Valere remembered that Katherine’s building was located on Asnd Street. She had even


    considered asking Julian to help check out the site before. Given everything that had happened, it


    was understandable that Katherine, in her distress, went there.


    Julian informed Valene that Katherine was in a very bad state, standing on the edge of the rooftop,


    appearing distressed. He had already called the authorities for help.


    Valerie’s heart ached when the brand that “Brother, please help me calm her down!”


    Valerie sat in the car with Matthew driving, whule Louis’s car followed closely belund, speeding


    down the road. Taking the opportunity, Valerie filled Julian in on the situation with Caleb. At this


    critical moment, her brother was the only person she could rely on.


    Julian fels a panc


    sympathy: Katherine was around the same age as Valerie, and he couldn’t bear to imagine if


    Valerie had encountered someone like Caleb. He reckoned he would be furious. But no matter how


    sad Katherine might get, punishing herselt for the wrongdoings of a scoundrel


    12:06 PM c d


    Chapter 166


    wasn’t the solution.


    The adjacent building was still being advertised for rent, so all the passages were open.


    Emergency services hadn’t arrived yet Julian, after leaving the fruit store, went straight to the


    opposite building. When he saw Katherine standing on the balcony’s edge, his heart skipped a


    beat.


    “Miss Santos, Valerie has already told me about your situation. I’m Valerie’s brother. If you don’t


    mind, you can call me Julian. Listen to me, don’t do anything foolish!”


    Katherine looked at Julian nkly, tears immediately welling up in her eyes. “Julian, please, don’t


    say anything…….”


    “Alright, pleasee down. In this world, apart from life and death, there’s nothing


    insurmountable. If you’re not afraid of death, what else is there to fear?” Julian said.


    Katherine broke down emotionally, shaking her head repeatedly. Just as Valerie and the others


    rushed over, ready to approach and persuade her. Katherine’s distress only intensified when she


    sax them. Tears streamed down her face even more profusely.


    “Don’te over. Please don’te over. I can’t take it anymore… Katherine’s expression was


    filled with sorrow, Tm pregnant with Caleb’s child, and now he’s abandoned me. I’m aplete


    failure…


    So that was the reason


    Valerie could almost envision how Caleb, on one hand, used Katherine of being responsible for


    her own suffering and, on the other, used the child to manipte her, leading Katherine into a


    spiral of guilt and self–doubt, subjected to his maniption.


    Katherine, usually so optimistic, had been forced into this state, just driving Calch out of Kranson


    City seemed too lenient for him!


    Valerie was about to console Katherine when Julian preemptively spoke up. He didn’t attempt to


    persuade or lecture. Instead, with a rxed tone and a smile, he said. I thought it was some major


    issue, but it turns out you’re just pregnant


    Katherine was stunned and looked at Julian in confusion


    “Even if you’re pregnant, you’re still you. The sky won’t copse because of this, and the people


    who really love you won’t be prejudiced against you because of this, right?” Julian said.


    Julian’s words stunned Katherine again. She looked at Valerie and Louis in a daze. When she saw


    their concerned gazes, her eyes gradually moistened.


    Julian, who seemed to be smiling, took advantage of the moment when she rxed her attention,


    Coupled with the fact that the two of them were rtively close, he went forward and hugged


    Katherine’s waist, pulling her back from the balcony.


    Seeing this, Louis heaved a sigh of relief and quickly went forward to help.


    Valerie also wanted to go forward. Matthew silently looked at her abdomen. He moved faster than


    her and controlled Katherine with Louis,
