Chapter <b>315</b>
“Matthew, do you think <b>it’s </b>best for me to get a leather jacket and wear a pair of sunsses now so that I can intimidate those officials?” Thinking that <b>he </b>was going there to avenge Valerie<b>, </b>Nathan was filled with fighting spirit.
Matthew nced at him coldly. “Boring.”
Nathan thought, “It makes sense. The Grant family does not need leather clothes and clubs to hold up the fort. The name of Mr. Grant <b>is </b>already more useful than <b>anything </b>else!
However, just as they were about to get off the elevator, a woman’s surprised voice suddenly came from behind. “Matthew… I knew you woulde and see mel‘
At the same time, a figure jumped into Matthew’s arms happily.
Matthew fell silent.
As soon <b>as </b>Matthew left, Valerie <b>took </b>a sip of water. When she thought of Matthew’s nervous expression just now, she was a little dazed. It turned out that Matthew could have such an expression on his face.
But then again, although he had exined why he did not receive the call because Nathan had forgotten to give him his phone, he did not say why he <b>had </b>suddenly left when she was <b>hospitalized </b>that day. She wondered if anything happened that day.
Valerie nced out of the window. She still wanted to go out and bask <b>in </b>the sun. She <b>casually </b>put on a <b>coat </b>and shuffled to the corridor in her slippers.
She texted Katherine <b>and </b>asked Katherine to buy her a looser set of pajamas. She also called Manny. She had to <b>take </b>leave again.
Manny was not surprised. Firstly, she did <b>a </b>good job. Secondly, Manny really could not figure out her background, so he agreed vaguely <b>and </b>told her to rest well.
After Valerie hung up the phone, she heard hurried footsteps behind her and someone almost bumped into her.
Valerie subconsciously covered her <b>stomach </b>and took two steps back. The other party reacted quickly and supported her. The two of them looked up and were stunned when they saw <b>each </b>other.
“Valerie!” <b>Louis </b>stared at her in surprise. “Why are you here? What’s going on?”
<b>Valerie </b>realized that Katherine had not told him about the <b>car </b>ident. She <b>was </b>a little disgusted by Louis’sst speech, so her attitude <b>was </b><b>a </b>little cold. She said calmly. “It’s nothing. There was a car ident.
“Car ident? Where <b>did </b>it happen? Are you alright?” Louis asked persistently.
Valerie had no choice but to tell the truth. “It’s not a big issue. At that time, at the intersection of Mountain Road and River Road, we collided with
another <b>car</b>”
Unexpectedly, Louis was shocked when he heard this. He wanted to say something but hesitated. “Mountain Road? Isn’t <b>that</b>…”
Louis stopped abruptly and did not say anything else. Instead, he quickly looked at her and said to her in a tone like he was lecturing Katherine, “Since you’re injured, why aren’t you resting? What are <b>you </b>doing here? I’ll send you <b>back </b>to the ward.”
Valerie could not help but remind him, “Mr. Santos, I still know my own body. You should have other things to do, right? You don’t have <b>to </b>worry. Besides, my husband ising backter. I don’t want him to see us together and cause unnecessary misunderstandings”
She especially emphasized the word “husband“. Her words rendered Louis speechless.
Only then did Louis react. He did not know whether tough or cry. “Are you still angry with me fromst time? Miss Warren, can I apologize again? I was really joking with youst time…
She <b>said</b><b>, </b>“It’s only a joke if both sides find it funny. Mr. Santos, <b>you’re </b>not in the same ss in society as us. Your so–called joke is just a form of mockery to us.”
Louis fell silent.
He thought, “What do you mean, not in the same ss?”
He almost couldn’t help but curse. If there was a hierarchy, no one in Kranson City was more capitalist than Matthew. Only she was still kept in the dark. She felt that Matthew was <b>an </b>honest working ss.

Chapter 315
However, just <b>as </b>he was about to blurt out these words, he remembered that Matthew had threatened him with <b>Louis </b>Restaurant. In the end, he swallowed his words.
Finally, he sighed helplessly. “Miss Warren, what can I do to make you forgive me!
She said. “Mr. Santos, you don’t have to ask me to forgive you”
Since he had already hurt others, there was no point in apologizing anymore. Valerie did not care about giving him a p before giving him a sweet date.
She <b>had </b>lived for more <b>than </b>20 years, and there were countless people who had hurt her. Most of the time, she could ignore <b>them</b>, but her bottom line <b>was </b>her self–esteem<b>. </b>She would never have a deep rtionship with anyone who crossed her bottom line.
Valerie said, “By the way, Mr. Santos, you should have other things to <b>do </b>at the hospital, right?”
His words finally reminded Louis that he was indeed here because he had something important to do. When he suddenly met Valerie, he actually forgot about it. However, when he saw Valerie leave, he <b>was </b>unwilling to ept it. He could not help but chase after Valerie and wanted to persuade her again.
Valerie <b>was </b>amused. “Mr. Santos, you should go do your own things first….
As she spoke, she walked forward and was <b>suddenly </b>surprised to find Matthew still standing at the elevator.
She thought, “Didn’t he say that he had something to do and would only be <b>back </b><b>in </b>two hours? Why is he <b>back </b>sis quickly”
Valerie was about to go forward and greet him. Unexpectedly, at this moment, a <b>woman </b>with a band–aid on her forehead cried and threw herself into Matthew’s arms.
