“This youngdy is really good–looking. She’s si

Valerie felt a bit awkward <b>as </b>she looked at the group of smiling people in front of her. It was the first time she <b>had </b>encountered such a Watching them all gather around her, she felt hoth amused and exasperated.
arge family.
Manhew clearly saw her difort and blocked them all for her. “It’s Vallie’s first timeing to the house; you’ll scare her like this.” He quietly moved the people apart from her.
How could everyone not see it‘ They could not help but tease Matthew, “Look, his heart is aching. He’s afraid that we’ll scare his wife”
Matthew, who usually seems like the King of Hell, <b>would </b>have <b>such </b><b>a </b>considerate and gentle side toward women. This’s really
“I <b>didn’t </b>expect M surprising!
“Keep your voice down. Matthew is only gentle with his wife. If he hears you calling him the King of Hell, you’ll be in trouble….
Matthew heard them all. It was rare for <b>him </b>to be in a good mood today, so he did not argue with these people. He held Valerie’s hand and said. “They’re all rtives. Let’s get to know each other.”
Valerie was a little stunned. Then, she heard him introduce. “This is Aunt, Uncle, this is Third Uncle,
Great Aunt….
Valerie greeted them <b>individually</b>. Each time<b>, </b>the rtives would smile and pat Valerie’s hand, then give her a gift. “<b>It’s </b>the first time we met, the gift
is a must.
“You’re pregnant for three months, right? What’s the due date”
“Mathew, you didn’t inform us in advance. It’s too rushed and we didn’t have time to prepare a gift. Hope you don’t mind”
The third aunt handed over a gift bag. Valerie opened it and realized that it was actually <b>a </b>check inside. She <b>was </b>shocked for a moment.
However, the person who gave the gift bag cast a resentful nce at Matthew, ming him for notifying them toote. They really <b>didn’t </b>have time to prepare the gift and could only use the most unrefined method.
Valerie was bewildered by them and secretly astonished. ‘Matthew has hidden from me that he has invited so many people. Didn’t he mention only Sophia would be present? But now there are so many rtives that I can’t possibly remember them <b>all</b>!
Valerie,e and sit <b>here</b><b>!</b>”
“Come, have a drink!”
“What <b>drink</b>? Where’s the seafood chowder? Hurry up <b>and </b>bring it over. You have <b>two </b>bodies now, so you have to nourish yourself!”
<b>Valerie </b><b>was </b>overwhelmed by their enthusiasm. However, she did not know that arge part of the Grant family’s friendliness was built on Matthew’s power.

She frowned slightly, saying “Some people are constantly messing around with romantic rtionships and naturally project their own <b>behaviors </b>onto others, thinking that everyone else is just like them”
This was clearly an insult to Fred who had recently been involved in a scandal with Angel Hearing this, Fred’s face darkened<b>, </b>and he was about to reproach Valerie for daring to sprak to him this way. However, Mattew nced at Fred and spoke emotionless, “But there is some truth in what you sud. <b>Indeed</b>, a <b>woman’s </b><b>status </b>can rise with her <b>child</b>. And it’s not just any rise; it’s a significant one. From now on, <b>she </b>will be the young madam of the Grant family and also represent our family. <b>Anyone </b>who mistreats her <b>is </b>effectively pping my face. As for social status, <b>Valerie </b>is <b>not </b>from a humble background either; she’s <b>a </b><b>rising </b>star and, if she wants, she can certainly make <b>a </b>ce for herself in the entertainment industry”
The <b>meaning </b>behind these words was self–exnatory. Fred’s face immediately <b>darkened</b>. His scandal with Angel had always been overshadowed by Matthew’s imposing presence whenever he shed with Matthew. Fred felt a surge of anger, especially when thinking about how his woman, though attractive, had always chased after Matthew in the past and was rejected by Matthew. This only fueled his frustration further<b>,</b>
Just as he <b>was </b>about to retort, Lincoln coughed and walked over with a faint smile. “Mathew, don’t be angry. It’s <b>just </b>that <b>Fred </b><b>has </b>got into trouble
recently, so he’s easily irritated. Please forgive him” Then, he looked at Fred. “Apologize to Matthew.
“Dad!”
Fred <b>was </b>reluctant. Lincoln frowned. “Apologizel” Seeing that Lincoln had emphasized his tone, Fred could <b>only </b>reluctantly mutter, <b>“</b>Sorry”

Lincoln then smiled at Valene and said. “Moreover, I think Matthew’s point is right. It <b>doesn’t </b>matter if the social <b>status </b>doesn’t match. What’s crucial <b>is </b>that the person has good character. I see Valerie <b>as </b>someone with blessings.”
The people beside him quickly <b>chimed </b>in. “That’s right. You can tell she’s blessed and also understanding and well–behaved.
Sophia nodded repeatedly from the side, feeling very pleased. “Yes, I liked Valerie the moment I saw her. She’s smart, understanding, and well- behaved. In a few months, we’ll arrange their wedding and let everyone know <b>that </b>the Grant family finally has a capabledy of the house!”
