I Hope You Will Never Regret

In the Restoration Group parking lot, Valeria sat in the car for a long time crying. She was devastated. She would never allow that woman to steal her Xavier from her.

She wiped her tears, then she decided to visit the Taylor family to see her niece. Then she took her phone and called her best friend, Zara Gray, and said, “Hello Zara, I am going to the Taylor mansion to visit my niece.

I might call you to clarify certain things. Please pretend to be my mother. You have to deny that Aunt Caroline has contacted my mother recently.”

Zara Gray was aware that the Moore bankruptcy was caused by the Taylor family. She couldn’t understand why Valeria wanted to marry the Taylor family heir after everything that had happened.

Valeria drove her car to the Taylor mansion. When she arrived, she pressed the intercom, and Butler Blade’s voice was heard, “How may I help you?” Valeria smiled and replied, “I am Valeria Moore, I am here to visit my niece, Sage.”

Butler Blade walked to the living room and said to Mr Taylor senior, “Sir, Miss Moore is here to visit Miss Sage. Should I open the gate for her?”

Mr Taylor senior smiled faintly and replied, “Go ahead and invite her in.” Then he called his daughter-in-law, Caroline. She was in the kitchen washing the dishes. She walked to her father-in-law and said, “Dad, are you looking for me?”

Her father-in-law indicated that Miss Moore was at the gate visiting her niece. Caroline was dumbfounded. She was reminded of her father-in-law’s words when he told them to be mentally prepared because the Moore family would visit them.

She took her phone and dialed her husband’s number. When it was connected, she said, “Hubby, you don’t believe who is visiting our granddaughter. The Moore family has no shame.”

John was not surprised because his father had already warned them. However, he didn’t think it would be so soon.

He was fuming with anger and replied, “Should the Moore family sow discord between my son and my daughter-in-law, I will never let them off. They are so greedy.”

At that moment, Valeria knocked on the door. Caroline bade her husband goodbye, then she walked to the door and opened it. She looked coldly at Valeria and asked, “May I help you, Miss Moore?”

Valeria smiled shyly at Mrs Taylor and replied, “I am here to visit my niece, Aunt Caroline.” She looked at Valeria sternly and asked, “Where were you for the past five years?”

Valeria lowered her eyes and replied, “I am sorry, Aunt Caroline, for neglecting my niece. I was angry with my late sister for lying to us. I decided to forgive my late sister and reach out to my niece.”

Aunt Caroline looked at her and asked, “Do you think you deserve my son? You will never be my daughter-in-law.”

Valeria looked at Aunt Caroline with tears in her eyes and replied, “Love knows no bounds, Aunt Caroline. However, I am here to visit my niece, not your son.”

Since she would never be Xavier’s wife, she would make Xavier and his wife’s lives miserable. She would destroy their peaceful lives. Sage was her secret weapon.

Aunt Caroline took Valeria to Sage’s room and said, “Sweetheart, this is your aunt, Valeria Moore.” Then she left them alone to chat.

Sage looked at her aunt with mixed feelings and asked, “What are you doing here?”

Valeria was taken aback and replied smiling, “Sage, I am sorry for not visiting you before, the Taylor family forbade us to visit you because they are wealthy.”

Sage looked at her and said, “Stop spouting lies. My grandmother called your mother in front of me, and she indicated that you didn’t visit me because of my late mother’s betrayal.”

Valeria started to panic, but she quickly calmed herself down and replied, “That’s a lie, Sage. No one called my mother before.” Then she took her phone and called her friend.

When it was connected, she said, “Hello Mom, did the Taylor family call you recently?”

Zara changed her voice and replied, “Hello baby, since my daughter passed away, the Taylor family stopped being friends with us. They even forbade us to see our precious granddaughter.” Then they hung up.

Sage was so shocked that her beloved grandmother lied to her. The hatred towards the Taylor family was deep. They cheated her opportunity to bond with her maternal grandparents.

When Valeria saw Sage’s face, she smiled and said, “Your mother promised me that I would marry your father when she was no more, but your grandmother told your father not to marry me.

I also heard that your father is married. Don’t trust that woman, she is a gold digger. She wants to snatch your father and your inheritance.

Sweetheart, you have to give your father an ultimatum. He must choose between you and that woman.”

Sage was fuming with anger and asked, “What do you want me to do, Aunt Valeria?” Valeria told her that she should frame that bad woman to chase her away.

Then she slapped the child hard on both cheeks and asked her to frame Avery. Sage’s ears were buzzing. Since she wasn’t fully recovered, her head was throbbing. She was in so much pain. Tears streamed down her face.

Valeria didn’t even comfort the child. She was finally satisfied with avenging herself on her late sister’s betrayal. She looked at Sage and said, “You have to be strong if you want to chase the bad woman from your father’s life.”Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.

Sage wiped her tears with the back of her hand and replied, “I will surely chase Avery from my father’s life. I hate the Taylor family for using their wealth and power to bully my maternal grandparents.”

Valeria smiled brightly and said, “My mother told me that your evil stepmother colluded with other doctors to kill your mother. Also, I heard your grandmother talking on the phone saying she hates your stepmother. You have to sow discord between them.”

Sage was in so much pain, she couldn’t think straight. When she heard that her mother was killed by Aunt Avery, she wished Avery had been in front of her to avenge her mother. She hated Avery to the bone.

Valeria smiled when she saw hatred in her niece’s eyes and said, “I noticed that your last name on your birth certificate is Moore, not Taylor. Do you understand what that means?”

Sage shook her throbbing head. Valeria looked at her niece and replied, “It means the Taylor family hasn’t accepted you as their own. They despise you because your maternal family is poor. You have to fight to win your father’s heart.

What would happen if your evil stepmother gave birth to a child? She will ask your father to ship you to the boarding school and forget about you. You will never see your father and your maternal family again. We love you so much, Sage.”

Sage promised her aunt that she would fight for her inheritance and chase the evil stepmother away from her father’s life.
