Marrying The Supposed Gold Digger (Valerie)

As soon as Matthew opened the door, he could smell the fragrance of food in the

Valerie placed the last dish on the table.

“Mr. Grant, you’re back”

Matthew nodded. The fat–loss meal in the afternoon was terrible, and the other meal with Lindsey was even more difficult to enjoy. He had been starving for the entire afternoon. Now that he smelled the fragrance of the food, he realized how hungry he was.

Valerie took the empty lunch box from him and could not help but be surprised. “Mr. Grant, you finished all of them?”

She had prepared a lunch box for him in the morning, but she guessed that there should be a little left. She did not expect the box to be empty.

Matthew was too embarrassed to say that he had given his lunch box to Charles as Matthew wanted to lose weight. He regretted it after giving it to Charles and wished he could get his lunch box back. He nodded. “It’s quite delicious, so I ate everything.”

After saying that, he glanced at the four dishes and soup on the table. “There are so many dishes today.”

Valeric chuckled and did not answer. She was happy to hear him praise her for preparing the delicious lunch. She quickly urged, “Mr. Grant, wash your hands and

come over to cat.”

After saying that, she picked up a plate and put some pasta on it. She had prepared three dishes before for Matthew to eat. He thought that they tasted good. Hence, today she cooked one more dish. Matthew did not expect her to remember his preferences.

Today, Valerie specially made his favorite dishes and was so enthusiastic. Matthew raised his eyebrows slightly. “What do you need my help with?”

Valerie was speechless.

She wondered, “This man is so sharp!”

Ashley didn’t know whether to laugh or cry she couldn’t help but tease, “Mr. Grant, are you a detective?”

Before she could say anything, Matthew gu

at she had a favor to ask of him.

Matthew said seriously, “I’m not a detective. My details are on the marriage. license.”

He thought to himself that this woman definitely could not remember his birthday. To think that he had specially remembered her birthday in order to meet Julian and Ashley last time.

Valerie knew that he had misunderstood and quickly explained, “I mean, Mr. Grant, your intuition and sense of smell are so sensitive. I haven’t even said anything yet. How did you guess that I need your help?”

Valerie’s behavior was different. It would be strange if he couldn’t tell. Property © NôvelDrama.Org.

Too lazy to dwell on the subject, Matthew went straight to the point. “So, what kind of trouble are you in?”

He thought that her mother had come to pester her again and wanted to get more money from her. He had seen many people over the years. Although some families were not on good terms, there were very few mothers like Ruth who did not do her duty as a mother but kept forcing Valerie for money. She would sell Valerie for a good sum of money if she could..

Ruth did not raise Valerie with love and concern. Valerie was only 12 years old when she was chased out of the family and became homeless. How could Ruth be so shameless to ask for money or favors now?

Valerie said, “It’s not trouble. I have a presumptuous request.”

When Matthew heard this, he looked happier.

When Valerie saw Matthew’s expression, she took the opportunity to call out, “Aiden, come out.”

As soon as she finished speaking, the door opened, and Aiden slowly walked out

with an electronic keyboard in his hand. After thest time, Aiden knew that it was this man who had saved him when he was sick. L

Walking to Matthew’s side, Aiden took a deep breath and said what Valerie had taught him before, “Matthew, can you teach me how to play the piano?”

The five–year–old boy in front of him was only as tall as Matthew’s thigh. He was shy and introverted, and his face turned red after he finished speaking.

Valerie was afraid that Matthew would refuse, so she explained, “Mr. Grant, I know. this is very troublesome for you, but Aiden is serious about learning to play the piano. Can you teach him?”

As soon as she finished talking, she realized that Matthew was quiet. She could not. help but feel nervous. She knew that Matthew was busy with work and would only want to rest after work. It would be too tiring for him to teach Aiden how to play the piano.

Valerie was about to sigh regretfully when she heard Matthew’s puzzled.

expression. “If you want to learn to play the piano, why did you buy an electronic keyboard?”

Valerie explained embarrassedly, “Aiden’s mother said that unless he wins an award in the talent competition next month, he would be allowed to learn to play the piano. That’s why I bought an electronic keyboard for him to practice first.”

“I understand now. How much foundation does Aiden have?”

“Aiden has only a basic foundation. He only learned from their kindergarten music teacher. He can only play simple children’s songs….” After a pause, she suddenly realized something. “Mr. Grant, did you just agree to teach Aiden how to play the piano?”
