Chapter 118
Valerie was embarrassed. After a long while she asked slowly, “Sophia, why aren’t you asleep yet? I’m about to rest. Why don’t we rest carly?”
“Val, we’re talking about serious matter
Don’t change the topic! Let me tell you.

Men are not good people. If you don’t o definitely do it a second time and a third tine. You can’t be afraid!”
“Alright! Thank you, Sophia. I understand.”
Valerie just wanted to end the call as soon as possible. However, other than the old lady’s voice, another voice came from the other end of the phone.
“Why are you suddenly saying that men are not good people? Did I offend you?”
The person who spoke was also elderly. Valerie realized that it was Sophie’s husband Nolan.
“Dear old man, I’m not talking about you. Why are you so upset? I’m talking about Val’s husband. He’s really a good–for–nothing. He’s already married, but he’s still fooling around outside!”
Nolan frowned when he heard this. “She’s the girl you’ve been talking about these past few days? It’s upsetting to know that such a nice girl had married a jerk.”
The old couple spoke to each other on the other end of the phone. Valerie was getting more embarrassed than ever. She was not used to having her private matters exposed, especially this
matter regarding Matthew.
In the end, Valerie could only find an excuse and quickly ended the call. She had already made two mistakes tonight because she did not check her phone. In the future, she told herself she had to check carefully before answering any calls.
However, she did not know that Sophia and Nolan were still talking about her in with the Grant Manor. They felt sorry for her. At the same time, they were angry her husband.
“Previously, when Val told me that she was getting married, she was still smiling and looked very happy. Who would have thought that her husband would be so outrageous!”
Nolan knew that Valerie had saved Sophia. He had also from Sophia that Valerie was a very good girl. Therefore, although he had never seen Valerie before, he also developed a liking for her. Nolan also felt gry over this matter.
“As a man, since he’s married, he has to be faithful to his wife! Her husband is such a jerk. If I see him, I’ll definitely beat him upent my anger!”
Unexpectedly, Sophia suddenly exclaimed “Hey, wait…”
“What is it?”
Sophia was regretful. “Why did I persuade Val to clarify things with that man just now? Since that man dared to fool around, he must be a jerk. He might have lied to Val to make her happy and convince her to forgive him. This would be an opportunity for me to get Val to divorce him immediately!”
Sophia thought, ‘As long as Valerie got a divorce, it would be possible for her and my grandson to get married.
The more Sophia thought about it, the more excited she became. Nolan did not see eye to eye with his wife. After all, Matthew was Noria Group’s successor. As Matthew’s wife, she had to be from an influential family to be able to help with Matthew’s career.
Seeing that Sophia had made up her mind, Nolan frowned.
He had lived for a long time and had seen many people. He knew that many young ladies from wealthy families looked very well–mannered on the surface, but in reality, they were all different. For example, the eldest daughter of the Santos family almost made Matthew suffer last Christmas.
Since that was the case, he might as well choose a girl with a good personality. The family background was not that important. After all, no matter how good the family background was, no family could compare to the Reynolds family in Kranson City.
However, although Valerie was a good lady, she was already married. Even if she got a divorce, it would be humiliating that the heir of the Grant family would marry a woman who had just gotten a divorce.
Nolan felt that Sophia’s plan not good.

However, the old lady was swift and decisive. She had called Matthew.
“Grandma…”

“Matthew, I have a girl here that I want to roduce to you. Make time to meet her this weekend.”
On the other end of the line, Matthew frowned. “Grandma, there’s an important meeting this weekend…”
“Cancel it”
“That meeting concerns the development of the Noria Group in the second quarter of the year. It’s very important.”
“Postpone it!”
Sophia knew her grandson very well. Every time she asked him to do something he didn’t want to do, he would use this excuse. He couldn’t even be bothered to change an excuse,
Sophia insisted, “I don’t care, you have to make time!”
When Nolan heard the old lady’s words, he wanted to say something but hesitated. He thought to himself, “That girl hasn’t even gotten a divorce, and Sophia already wants to arrange for Matthew to meet her. Isn’t this… isn’t this like dating a married woman?”
