Chapter 433
When Billy returned to the hall, Summer was getting some desserts for Charlotte while Sherman was
sitting on the couch alone.
He wrapped his arms around Sherman''s shoulders and asked, "Do you feel like having anything? Any
desserts or fruits? I''ll grab some for you."
"Maybe some fruits will do," she smiled and replied after waking from her trance.
"Okay, wait here," he got up and went to get pieces of every fruit. When his arm was lifted, Sherman
noticed the purple sandalwood bracelet he wore on his wrist.
His expression was unwavering, and he smiled as he replied, "Honey, do you remember Mrs. Woods,
the secretary in our office?"
"What about her?" she asked. Sherman knew Mrs. Woods. She was Billy''s assistant, and she was a
hardworking woman in her mid-forties.
"Well, she went to San Marcaome for a trip previously, and this bracelet was the souvenir she got for
every one of us in the office. Doesn''t it look great? But I can take it down if you don''t like it,” he said as
he motioned to take the bracelet off.
Sherman stopped him and said, "I don''t dislike it. I
think it looks nice. Just keep it on since it was a present from Mrs. Woods."
Sherman had only met Mrs. Woods twice at thepany, but she liked her as Mrs. Woods had a
pleasant personality and was friendly to others too.
Once someone starts lying, they would get more ustomed to it, and that someone was Billy.
Charlotte was running around in the hall like a puppy off her leash. Summer chased after her while
holding the te of desserts she picked for her.
She bumped into a person identally, and she apologized right away.
The person she had bumped into was a male reporter. When he saw her, his eyes glinted with a hint of

When the rumors of Mrs. Valentine having an affair and meeting her secret lover at night were spread,
reporters had rushed to her school to interview her.
And, he was one of them. However, it was because of the crowd and pushing that he had identally
knocked onto her with his video camera.
Then, without investigating properly, Mr. Valentine had called thepany he worked for and got him
fired. Nopany had wanted to hire him. Only until when Mr. Valentine had traveled abroad did he
Since they have divorced now, he had thought it was the best time to get his revenge.
"Mommy, I want to have a strawberry," Charlotte said a s she softly panted like a small bull. She ran
back to Summer''s side after feeling tired from running around.
Summer poked a strawberry with a fork and held onto her chin as she fed her daughter.
"Isn''t this Mr. Valentine''s ex-wife? If I heard correctly, this child here had called you mommy. Ms. Hart,
may I know if she''s Mr. Valentine''s child or is she from your secret lover?" he intentionally raised his
voice as he asked while raising his camera to face her.
Everyone had turned to look over.
Summer''s brows furrowed when she heard him.
Wanting to ignore him, she held onto Charlotte''s hand and pulled her away to leave. She didn''t want to
cause amotion at Grace''s wedding. It was best to avoid i t as much as possible.
But even if she did want to avoid making a fuss, the reporter didn''t let her. He took a step forward and
blocked her path. He asked again, "Is she really an illegitimate child from the affair?"
"Please mind your tone and manners."
"If what I said wasn''t the truth, you wouldn''t get so worked up, right?" he had looked and sounded rude
and mocking.
The reporters around were also starting to record the scene. The male reporter didn''t seem to back
down, and the people around them had begun to gossip about it.
"Hey, little girl, who''s your daddy?" he shifted his attention towards Charlotte.
