Chapter 214
"What?" Valeria questioned in disbelief.
"Jeez, there''s no need to be so loud; William chuckled and he wondered if Valeria was jealous of
Paisley.
Putting his thoughts into action, he asked, "Are you jealous?"
"Yes, I am! I''m telling you, William Howard, you can only like me.You’ re not allowed to like other
women, do you understand?"
"Of course.I only like you, my little angel.Don''t worry, I''ll Keep my distance from other women."
"You''d better do so" Valeria grumbled.
"Remember, stay away from Ms.Anthony and don''t speak with her unless it''s for work.Am I clear "
"Yes, crystal clear.I''ll always remember that I belong to Valeria Brown."
Valeria let out a sigh of relief after hanging up the phone although she still felt a little uneasy.She still
felt the need to talk with him when he returned home from workter that night.
At the very least, William needed to know what Paisley had told her that day on the cruise.
Then, since she had nothing else to do, Valeria decided to put William and her dirty clothes to wash.
On her way to theundry room, the maid spotted her and quickly came forth to say, "You can leave it
to me, Miss Brown."
Valeria shook her head and insisted, "I can do it.I have nothing else to do.Plus, it''ll be like an exercise
for me.I''m trying to lose weight, anyway."
Upon hearing that, the maid nodded and didn''t press on it anymore.
Valeria had only thrown the clothes into the washing machine when Danya, holding aundry basket in
her hands, entered theundry room.It seemed like she was going to doundry too.
Noticing that Valeria was in theundry room, Danya''s face distorted in disdain for a moment before
concealing it.
Then, she pretended to be concerned and asked, "Miss Brown, are you here to doundry as well?"
Valeria hummed as an agreement.She didn''t feel good about Danya.
"I didn''t think Miss Brown as someone who would do their ownundry.You know, I''ve been doing these
works for Ms.Anthony since she was young."
Valeria glimpsed at Danya, wondering what her tricks were up in her sleeves.
Wasn''t what happened at lunch enough to let her know her ce? So, Valeria shrugged.
After she closed the washing machine''s door, she focused on pouring theundry detergent into the
designatedpartment.
Her indifference didn''t bother Danya.
It also didn''t stop her from beginning topliment Paisley, "Ms.Anthony has been a bright child since
young.She''s smart and beautiful.Do you know she won a lot of awards and she went to the best
university in the country? Everyone likes her and she''s the role model of a daughter of the upper-ss
family."
Valeria scoffed, "You''re exaggerating.Indeed, Ms.Anthony is a brilliant woman, but it wouldn''t be to the
point that no one dislikes her.I mean, for starters, I don''t like her."
Danya was trying to lower Valeria''s self confidence byparing her with Paisley.
However, who would''ve thought that Valeria would be so unpredictable.
As a daughter of a wealthy family, Valeria shouldn''t disy her dissatisfaction even if shepletely
disagreed with Danya.
However, not only did Valeria showed it, but she also expressed it out loud.
At this point, Danya wasn''t even sure if Valeria was senseless or she was just really uneducated as a
lady.
Danya was about to speak before Valeria interrupted her.
"If Ms.Anthony is as extraordinary as you said, she must have a lot of suitors, right?"
"That''s for sure! I can''t even count how many outstanding young men are courting Ms.Anthony"
Danya answered with pride.
As she was about to continue with her praises, Valeria interrupted her once again.
"Well, I feel better after hearing that" She seemed genuinely relieved, but what she said next was harsh
and unpleasant to Danya’s ears.
"Frankly speaking, since William is so amiable and he looked so handsome, I''m a little worried that
Ms.Anthony might not be able to resist the temptation.But after listening to what you''ve told me, she
surely wouldn''t want to ruin others’ rtionships, don''t you think so?"
Danya''s face darkened, but she took a deep breath to control her temper.
"Of course she wouldn''t.Miss Paisley would do no such thing!"
Hearing this made Valeria grinned.
"I thought so too.Ms.Anthony is a modest and aplished young woman.I also don''t think she''ll do
such a shameless act.But you should also know that there are many shameless women nowadays and
they like to go after other people''s men on purpose.You can''t even tell who''s the wolf in sheep''s
clothing sometimes.I have to learn this the hard way"
Danya''s blood boiled at Valeria’s words.She thought she could get on Valeria''s nerves byparing
her with Paisley.But she never expected herself to be triggered instead.
Then, she suddenly realized that Valeria''s words had a deeper meaning to them.
Eyeing Valeria with caution, Danya was worried that Valeria had found out what Hayden and Paisley
were nning.
Belonging ? N?velDram/a.Org.
If that was the case, she had to inform Paisley so that they could prepare in advance.
At the thought of it, Danya did not dwell any longer with Valeria.
After loading theundry in a hurry, she went back to her room and sent a message to Paisley, "Miss,
Valeria seems to have picked up on our n.I spoke with her earlier, and she was acting quite weirdly"
"I told her that Sir Hayden is fond of me.Of course she''ll be on her guard," Paisley replied.
"I see, How are you doing in thepany, Miss? How is Sir William treating you?" Paisley''s reply was
quick.
"I''m fine.William is very chivalrous."
"I''m relieved to hear that, Miss.Anyway, you have to beware of Valeria.I''ve never seen any decent
woman who is as shameless as she is."
"Don''t mind her.She won''t be happy for long.I''m going outstation with William today, so we won''t be
going hometer.Let''s see what Valeria can do about that."
Danya was exhrated to hear that from Paisley.
"Really? Miss, then you must seize the opportunity! This is a good chance to make Valeria realize that
she''s not worthy of William."
On the other hand, Valeria only knew about the business trip in the evening.
William called, "Valeria, I''m not going home tonight.You should stay at home and be good, okay? I''ll try
toe back tomorrow."
Valeria was a little worried to hear William say so, and she asked, "Did something trickye up at the
company?"
"Don''t worry, it''s not something that I can''t handle.It''s just that I can''te home to you tonight.I
promise I''ll make it up to you when Ie back."
In the evening, Valeria had dinner together with Danya and the other employees in the vi.
After dinner, she went for a short walk around the garden.
When she returned to the vi''s living room, Danya was rattling about how perfect Paisley was with the
employees.
Coming from a renowned family, Paisley had taken part in many business negotiations, and all were
sessful.
However, Valeria only felt her stomach turn when she heard Paisley''s achievement.It was probably
because she already knew Paisley''s true colors.
Valeria went straight back to her bedroom with her phone.
Right as she closed the door behind her, Abbie called.
There was nothing they couldn''t tell each other.
So, Valeria naturally told Abbie about Paisley, who had alsoe to Sydney.
She also told Abbie about Paisley''s encounter with a robbery and having no ce to stay.
Abbie asked in surprise, "Are you saying that Paisley is living with the both of you now?"
"Yes.And that butler of hers was throwing knives at me all day! I''m furious!"
Valeria added and she also told Abbie about their dispute at theundry room earlier that day.
"I agree with you, Valeria.Paisley is definitely very suspicious.And I have reasons to believe that she''s
nning something that involves seducing William.So, you''d better watch out"
Valeria yelped, "You think so too? Then what should I do now? William just called and told me that he
and Paisley are going outstation for business and that they won''te home tonight."
Abbie immediatelyforted her, "Don''t worry too much.I don''t think she''ll act recklessly so fast.After
all, she''s from a distinguished family.Paisley is not as reckless as Ashley."
"I''m still worried.I''m going to have a video call with Williamter to see what''s going on"
"Well, you keep an eye on your beloved William.By the way, I saw your dad and his assistant in front of
a test center today.It was unusual, so I went and asked about it.They said your dad was going for a
paternity test.
