Chapter 216
Paisley heaved a deep sigh after she returned to her own room.She thought of what happened earlier
in William''s room and she was, once again, surprised by him.
Earlier that day, Paisley had pretended to have failed to notice a w in their contract upon a
discussion with Lucas, and it would act as an excuse for her toe find William that night so that they
could spend more time together.
In his room, Paisley gave a long-winded proposal to solve the problem.
However, William showed no interest in carrying out her suggestion and he also rejected it.
Instead, he casually put forward an alternative solution that was much better than the one Paisley had
come up with.
However, despite making no progress on her n for the night, Paisley confirmed that William was
neither a pleasure seeker nor ipetent.
In fact, he was quite the contrary.
Truth be told, once she thought about it, it made sense for her that William wasn''t someone dimwitted.
After all, he entered the world''s top university with his own intellectual strength.
Not only was he handsome and gifted, but William was also the heir chosen by Hayden to inherit his
share for the Howard Group.
She knew she had toe up with something to make him fall for her, and the first problem, also the
biggest one, was that she needed to get rid of Valeria.
She wondered what kind of magic Valeria cast on William.
After all, he waspletely head over heels for Valeria.
If only Valeria could leave William on her own initiative, Paisley hoped.
Troubled, she tossed and turned on the bed because she couldn''t sleep.
Then, her eyes suddenly lit up as she thought of something.
In their video call earlier, Valeria didn''t seem to trust William very much.
If that was the case, Paisley could just pull some tricks and sow the seeds of doubt in Valeria.
Then, Valeria would keep a close watch on William out of suspicion, and she might even begin to act
unreasonably.
Surely William could only take it to a certain degree until he would snap in annoyance and break up
with Valeria.
At the thought of this, Paisley immediately sent a message to Danya, "Rankle with Valeria when you
have the chance so that she''d cause trouble."
The following morning, Valeria got up earlier than usual.
She first went to the restaurant for breakfast, and then she thought of leaving the house to walk around
the city after she finished her meal.
However, the maid in the vi stopped her.
"Miss Brown, it''s dangerous outside, and Bobby isn''t around.Sir William said you shouldn''t go out, so
maybe you should wait until hees back."
"It''s daytime.I''ll be fine."
"No, I can''t let you out unless Sir William said so" the maid was persistent, and she left Valeria no
choice but to call William.
William didn''t let Valeria wait long before he picked up, but he rejected her request immediately.
"No.Didn''t you promise to stay home? If you really want to go out, I''ll arrange for it after I go back,
okay?"
"But I''m really bored...Just let me go out to tour the city.I''ll be fine! It ''s not like it''s my first time abroad"
"Still, no.I''m too worried to let you leave the house without Bobby.So, be a good girl and stay home,
alright? I''ll be back in the evening."
Valeria pouted in displeasure, "Why are you doing this to me?"
Then, instead of William''s voice, she heard Paisley calling over the phone, "They''re here!"
And then Lucas’ voice came through, "Sir William, we should go.Everyone''s waiting."
"I have to work now.Listen to me, okay?"
Then he hung up the phone in a hurry.
Valeria sighed, and she decided to walk in the garden instead, since she couldn''t leave the vi.
Meanwhile, Danya had been keeping an eye on Valeria after Paisley''s message the night before.
When Danya saw Valeria headed to the garden, she trailed after Valeria.
The vi had argend area and Valeria was already tired after walking a few rounds.
So, she sat down on a swing for some rest.
Not longter, she heard Danya’s surprised voice from nearby, "Are you serious? How can you let him
touch you like that?"
Valeria turned to see Danya by a tree not far away with her back facing her and the obvious
displeasure in her tone.
"He''s had so many girlfriends before! And he''s a good-for-nothing who''s also ignorant.How could you
just yield to him? You can''t just do that even if he''s good-looking! Besides, he''s not single, isn''t he?
Then who are you to him?"
Valeria couldn''t believe what she heard.
Trying to figure it out, she mumbled, "Many girlfriends and good-for-nothing...Is she talking about
William? And what exactly did William do to Paisley?"
She straightened her posture and leaned towards Danya so that she could hear Danya clearer.
Danya was still talking, "He''s not worthy of you, Miss.Not even if he''s gentle with you.He''s a b*stard for
doing this to you when he has a girlfriend!"
"I know...I know Sir Hayden likes you and he wants you to marry his grandson.But I can''t let you fall
into the trap without him breaking up with that woman immediately! "Oh, he promised that he''s going to
break up once hees back? Are you sure? Well, then I don''t have any other concerns.No, it''s fine if
the both of you stay out for one more night.Just remember to wear protection, okay? You can''t be
pregnant now"
After that, Danya hung up and headed back into the vi in a hurry.
After that, Danya hung up and headed back into the vi in a hurry.
Valeria narrowed her eyes at the back of Danya.
It must be Paisley on the phone earlier.
Based on what Danya had replied, Valeria could somewhat guess that Paisley must have said she
slept with William the night before.

He also promised Paisley that he would break up with Valeria to be together with her.
And what Paisley had said rubbed Valeria the wrong way.
Filled with jealousy, Valeria wanted to call and question William right away.She already had her finger
on the call button when she noticed the time on the screen of her phone.
When William hung up the call earlier, he said that he was needed at work.
Valeria also heard the voices of Paisley and Lucas.
Since Paisley was at work, she wouldn''t possibly have the time to call Danya and share the news with
her.
At the thought of this, Valeria calmed down and scanned the garden with her phone in her hand.
The vi had a sizable garden, so Danya had no reason toe so close to Valeria to speak on the
phone.
Moreover, now that Valeria thought about it, Danya spoke rather loudly as though she was trying to
make Valeria hear it.
What Paisley had experienced the night before wasn''t something to be proud of.
Danya shouldn''t be babbling about it so loudly.
Was Danya trying to provoke her? Valeria sneered at the thought of this.
The trick that Danya pulled could be easily be debunked just with a call.
She unlocked her phone again and called Bobby, to which he answered respectfully, "Hello, Miss
Brown."
"Is he busy now?" Valeria asked.
"Yes, Sir William is in a meeting now.You can leave a message for him if you need to.I''ll pass it to him
once he''s done."
"Oh, it''s not that big of a deal.I just want to ask if the case is going well; Valeria said.
"I think I can say it''s going smoothly, as expected.Don''t worry, Miss Brown.There''s nothing Sir William
can''t handle."
"Is that so? Then how about Ms.Anthony? Is she still interpreting for him?"
"Yes, she is.Worry not, Miss Brown.Sir William knows what he''s doing,"
Bobby assured, and he sounded like he knew why Valeria was Calling.
Valeria flustered, "I''m not worried.I only want to ask and see if he''ll be able toe home tonight"
Bobby chuckled and ended the call.
After hanging up the phone, Valeria sneered.
She didn''t think Danya would brazenly use such a dirty trick on her.
"Just you wait and see, Danya" Valerie scoffed.
