Chapter 248
Ronald cut Hayden''s call and left the office as he asked his secretary, "Where''s Miss Brown?"
"She said that she went out for dinner!" His secretary answered.
Ronald was irritated and immediately turned back to call her phone.
However, her phone was busy and heined angrily, "What the hell? Why is nothing going
smoothly?"
Valeria drove to the Wolf Group Hotel.
The lobby manager immediately weed her warmly as she entered the hall, "Miss Brown, this way
please!"
She followed the manager into the elevator as he led Valeria into an elegant room.
Valeria sat down and called William, "Why aren''t you here yet?"
"I''ll be there soon"
"How can a man let a woman wait for him? You''re such a diva"
Shemented on purpose.
William smiled and replied, "I have a big surprise for you, so I''ll be a littlete"
Valeria was excited after hearing that he had prepared a surprise for her, "What is it?"
"L can''t tell you!"
"Please? Just a hint!" She pleaded, "Babe, please, I''m begging you.
Tell me!"
"I can''t tell you.It''ll be boring if I just reveal my surprise!"
William remained unmoved.
"Fine, don''t tell me, I don''t want to know anyways.Plus, the surprise might not even be a surprise
because of how unromantic you are"Valeria grumbled and hung up the phone.The doors of the private
room were pushed open about 15 minutester and William came in.Valeria turned to look at him, and
he was empty-handed.
She saw nothing else other than a bunch of keys in his hand.She knew that she shouldn''t have had
high hopes.
She was expecting William to bring a bouquet of flowers, but now, it seemed like that was a far-fetched
dream as well.
Valeria rolled her eyes at William, "Where''s your surprise?"
"It''s still in preparation.I''ll take you to witness a miracle after dinner’ He sat down and looked at her with
a smile.
"How did you be a General Manager today?"
"No, it is not, I became the Assistant General Manager!" She corrected him.
"My bad, a slip of the tongue.Why do you suddenly want to be the Assistant General Manager? The
more independent you be, the more insecure I feel"
"Who cares...I won''t stop at just being a General Manager, I also want to be the Chairman.I''ll make
sure to take over my mother''spanypletely, so that the mistress’ family won''t have anything!"
"l love how ambitious you are!"William pped his hands and said, "
Why the sudden change of heart? Weren''t you just happy while living a simple life?"
"I have to be ambitious since you''re not the one.If we''re both unambitious together, we would be bullied
to death in the future!"
Valeria looked worried, "My father is clearly biased towards his mistress’ family and he assumed that I
don''t exist sometimes.Although your father treats you well, Elizabeth and Charles are not good people
either.The only reason they''re treating you well now is because of your father but they will definitely
bully you in the future.I have to take control of thepany to shield us against any future troubles!"
William''s heart ached at her serious words, "Don''t worry, I''m not that bad.We don''t have to worry about
anything else, I''m fine as long as I can protect you!"
Valeria believed his words, but he currently had to rely on Hayden as he didn''t have his own power.
If Hayden died one day, no one would listen to him nor back him up.
She decided to goad William as she thought about it, "You should take a leap too.I''ll start from zero in
the Brownard Group, and you''ll start from zero in the Howard Group as well.Let''s see who''s better in
the future."
"Do you want topete with me in terms of work?" William tilted his head and smiled.
"Can''t I? Are you scared of me? I''m just a woman after all’ Valeria raised her eyebrows.
"It''s boring topete with a woman!"
William put his hands around her waist with a faint smile, "I don''t want you to be an independent
woman, I just want one thing from you."
"What is it?" Valeria asked honestly.
"I just hope you can cooperate with me in bed,"
William said in a low voice while nibbling her ear.
"You''re so shameless!"
Belonging ? N?velDram/a.Org.
Valeria blushed and pushed him away, "Now that I have a status, you should be polite to me and greet
me as Manager Brown whenever you see me.
You can''t tease me as well!"
"Alright, please take care of me then, Miss Brown!"
He reached out to shake hands with her seriously.
"Thank you! Please take care of me too, Mr.Howard!"
Valeria held back herughter and put her hand in his.
William held her soft hand and kissed it.
William felt his heart itch looking at Valeria who was so charming.
He stretched out his hands to pull her into his arms and kissed her red lips.
"Stop messing around, someone wille in!"
Valeria wanted to push him away, but he lowered his head without the slightest care.
William''s passionate kisses made Valeria lose her breath.
He only let go of her and sat up straight when someone knocked on the door of the private room lightly.
The waiters came in one after another to bring their lunch in.
They were all Valeria''s favorite spicy dishes.
Valeria smiled and ate happily while William kept putting food on her te.
She asked him as she ate, "William, I think I''ve gotten a little fatter.Don''t you think so?"
"No, but you should"
"Why should I? You''ll dislike me if I''m fat!" Valeria curled her lips.
"No I won''t, I''ll just have more to hold," William squinted and snickered.
Valeria felt that William was bing more and more outrageous.He would still hold his thoughts back
then, but now he would just let anything out of his mouth.
She red at him and lowered her head to eat as she ignored him.
He smiled and put more food on her te, "Eat more.I''ll take you somewhere nice once you''re full."
After dinner, he brought her to his car.
She was a little curious, "Where are we going?"
"Do you like amusement parks? Let''s go there, alright?" He asked.
"Where''s your surprise? Is your surprise just a trip to the amusement park?"
"That is just the tip of the iceberg.The real surprise will be revealed this evening."
"Why do you have to be so mysterious?" Valeria whined.
William leaned over and fastened her seat belt as he ignored her words.
Then, he gave her another kiss before driving.
The car left the parking lot and quickly went on a bridge.
Valeria reached out her hand to turn on the music as ‘Scarborough Market’ started to y in the car.
The voice of the Sventer Brian was magical as it hypnotized anyone that listened.
Valeria leaned on the chair while gently tapping her feet to the rhythm.
William smiled and nced at the beautiful woman beside him.
Meantime, he sped off his car.The car left the bridge and went on a highway.
Suddenly, Valeria came to her senses as she eximed, "This is not the way to the amusement park,
right?"
"Of course not!"
"Where on earth are we going? Stop ying games with me!"
"We''re going to our home!"
