 He knew when to stop. “Alright, I won’tugh at you anymore. Get some rest

 “What about the people downstairs? They’re still helping!” Valerie asked.

 Lincoln and Holly were considered elders. It would not reflect well on them

 [they rested while the elders were busy

 Matthew’s eyes turned cold, “Ignore them. They came here on their own ord

 There were servants at home. Fred was merely putting on appearances. Did they really think that they were of help here?

 Valerie had just arrived in this family and did not understand. She would know when she had more interactions with them in the future.

 Upon hearing what he said. Valerie decided not to worry about it anymore.

 As shey in bed, Valerie hugged Matthew tightly. This is what home teels like. This New Year, there’s finally a festive atmosphere. It’s very lively and bustling to have the whole family together. This is what the New Year ought to feel like.”

 The two people yearning for kinship embraced each other tightly. Matthew nted a kiss on Valerie’s head while she nestled in his arms and drified off to sleep,

 When Valerie woke up the next morning. Matthew was no longer by her side. Valerie called Julian. Ever since he left the two of them had not had a good chat,

 After several rings, Julian finally answered the phone, his voice sounding calm.

 “How are you, Julian? Where are you now and what are you working as? Valerie asked.

 It was

 was not easy for Julian especially when he had a child with him. Valerie wanted to know what he was doing.

 Julian, however, avoided the question, saying, “Nothing much, just doing some simple things. After all, I have a child to take care of. How’s your health? Now that you’re pregnant, make sure that you get enough nutrients. Don’t go on a diet just because you want to maintain your figure.”

 “I understand, Julian, but you must also take care of yourself, Valerie said.

 “Okay. I have to go. Aiden has just woken up. We’ll chat another day”

 Before Valerie could say anything, Julian hung

 <li>up.</li>

 </ol>

 Valerie felt that something was amiss. Julian was not a good liar. He would not be in such a hurry to hang up unless he did not want to say more.

 She was Julian’s sister. Even though they w were not biological siblings, they had grown up together. He would not behave like that to her.

 The only exnation was that Julian was hiding something from her. Since he was unwilling to tell her, Valerie would not push him to do so. After all, Julian had always been one to share good news but keep troubles to himself. He also probably did not want her to overthink things, especially since she was pregnant…

 ught for a moment and dialed Aiden’s number, Kids would not lie.

 Hence, Valerie thought

 Aiden was also very dependent on her. She would definitely be able to get something out of him.

 The phone rang a few times. Valerie was a little nervous, afraid that Aiden did not have his phone with him.

 Fortunately, the call went througle

 “Aiden!”

 “Aunt Valerie!”

 Aiden’s childish voice sounded from the other side of the call. “I miss you so much, Aunt Valerie!” he said.

 “I miss you too, Aiden. How are you and y

 your dad doing over there? Valerie asked.

 “We or doing great. It’s just that Dad has had quite a tough time recently. He is working with a friend at the orchard. They dig every day. Dad is busy every day. He’s out early andes backte every day. He’s so tired that he falls asleep as soon as he lies down. Sometimes, he doesn’t even have

 Valerie’s heart sank when she heard that She did not expect Julian to do manualbor at his age. She felt a hule upse

 Aiden changed the topic. “But this ce is very | made new friends.

 Valerie praised sincerely. “I knew that you could do it. You’re the best, Aident When we meet next time, I will prepare a gift for you?

 “Okay! When you have time, bring Katherine over when youe to visit me

 When Valerie heard Aiden say this, a trace of helplessness shed in her eyes, but she still agreed immediately. “Alright. When I am free, I will go visit you.

 At that moment, she had another calling in. Hence, Valerie hurriedly bid farewell to Aiden. After hanging up the phone, she sighed. When she saw that it was Louis’s number, she hesitated for a moment before answering the call.

 “What can I do for you, Mr. Santos?“This content ? N?v/elDr(a)m/a.Org.

 She addressed him in a distant and formal way

 They were both adults. The way Louis looked at her before was not quite right. She knew very well that the best way to maintain distance from him. was to be distant toward him. Louis understood this too, so he usually did not contact her,

 Since he took the initiative to call, something must have happened.

 As expected, there was a hint of confusion in his voice. “Actually, it’s nothing much. I just wanted to ask you when Katherine went to visit you on set how did she and Dale be close?” Louis said.

 “What do you mean?” Valerie did not understand.

 The more she listened to Louis, the more she frowned. Louis said. “Even you slon’t know about it? Dale suddenly appeared at my doorstep with flowers. He wants to woo Katherine.
