Marrying

“You’re getting bolder and bolder, you wretched girl With that, Vivian Santos raised her hand and slapped her daughter Katherine.

Valerie Warren got a shock. Katherine stumbled sideways from the impact and almost fell. Fortunately, Ian Grant was there to catch her, “I say, Mrs. || Santos She’s your daughter!”

“It’s none of your business if I hit my daughter! Not only do 1 want to hit her, but I also want to hit all of you!”

She was about to hit Valerie when lan grabbed her hand,

“I say, Mrs. Santos. Even if you want to throw a tantrum, you have to check where you are. This is the Noria Group’s territory. Does your Santos family have the guts to go against the Noria Group, and by extension go against the Grant family!

“This lady is Mrs. Grant. If you slap her, not even Louis Santos can help you, much less Katherine!”

Vivian froze when the realization hit her but she was still furious.

She then glared at lan before pointing at Valerie and Katherine as if to warn them. In the end, she stalked off with a loud snort.

Katherine looked apologetic. Tm sorry, Valerie. I have made you suffert“

Valerie simply shook her head. “I’m fine.”

Ian sighed, “Although they’re all wealthy families, Mrs. Santos’s bad temper is infamous in this circle. Don’t take it to heart”

He had also heard of such mothers when he was overseas After such a ruckus, lan gave another sigh and went out. When he came back, he had two glasses of water and a hot egg which he handed to Katherine.

“You ladies have a good chat. I’ll excuse myself, Call me if you need anything.”

Katherine nodded and thanked lan. She sat down with Valerie in the office. “Valerie, I’m really sorry. I never thought my Mom would suddenly rush here. She located my shop and wanted to make me go back, but I refused. I didn’t expect her to take it out on you Copyright Nôv/el/Dra/ma.Org.

Valerie shook her head. “You can’t blame yourself for this. Everyone knows that your mother has a bad temper. She has so much frustration toward you. She’s hoping”

“Sight Let’s not talk about this anymore,” Katherine mumbled,

At first, Valerie still felt bad about keeping Katherine’s mother in the dark. However, the older woman had totally no respect for Katherine. Today, she even came looking for Valerie.

Valerie also lost her temper, especially today when Katherine’s mother hit Katherine before her eyes. This was despite knowing that Katherine was pregnant

Valerie could not tolerate that. When she saw Katherine’s pale face, it was obvious that the girl had not been doing well recently. She quickly held Katherine’s hand. “Katherine, I told you previously to look for another guy. Have you thought about it?”

Katherine stared at her. “Valerie, are you joking! You still want me to look for another guy in my present condition?”

Valerie did not think there was anything wrong. Why not? I think it’s quite a good idea. You’re multi–talented and good–looking. Why don’t you get to know a new guy?”

“But I’m already pregnant, Katherine protested.

“What’s the big deal? If you’re pregnant, so be it. It’s not a big deal. A single mother can still go on dates. And anyway, the child isn’t born yer

“After you have found a man willing to marry you, it’s possible that he will treat this child as his own after birth. Don’t worry. If you trust me, I can help you make the arrangements.

“We can choose from my company’s senior executives first!“

After listening to Valerie, Katherine burst out boughing. Valerie, stop joking”

However, Valerie was very solemn. Tm not joking. If you don’t want to be treated like this by your mother again, I’m afraid you can only listen to me. Having a man around can protect you and also keep your mother’s mouth shut.”

Valerie wanted to make sure Katherine’s mother could not say anything any further.

Since Katherine’s mother felt that Katherine’s pregnancy was a very shameful thing, she repeatedly requested Katherine to move back. Wasn’t it because she wanted to control her daughter!

Once Katherine

married and la man genuinely treated her well, it would solve a big problem.

Katherine would be able to start her own family and escape her mother’s control completely. There would be no more problems in the future.

After listening, Katherine could only accept the idea. Right now, she did not want to disappoint Valerie. Moreover, what happened today was indeed her family’s faith, so she could only go along with Valerie’s proposal.

After all, Valerie was sincerely thinking of her welfare.

“Good. Leave it to me then. Wait for my news. I won’t let you down,” Valerie said reassuringly.

When she saw that it was almost time. Katherine stood up. “Valerie, I go back first. I still have a class to conduct

Valerie nodded. “Alright. You must contact me if you encounter any problems”

“Mm–hmm. I wall.” With that, Katherine also left

Valerie asked lan to come into her office and told him to gather some information for blind dates, fan was stupefied. “Valerie, I don’t want to go on any blind dates!”

“What are you thinking? It’s for Katherine. I want to set up a blind date for her

When he realized that Valerie was going to look for a husband for Katherine, he was very shocked. “No way, Valerie. How can something like that work? I think it’s quite difficult to pull off

“You do know that Katherine Santes is already famous now? Even when I was overseas, I was able to see all those news on the scandal. I’m afraid it’ll be very difficult to do this now!!

Everyone knew about Katherine’s relationship with Dale Racchus. If Valerie wanted to set up a blind date, these were all obstacles that could not be overcome. Moreover, with Katherine’s family background, it would be unrealistic to look for an ordinary person. However, which wealthy family would be willing to have a daughter–in–law like that?

Valerie raised her eyebrows. “Don’t worry about it for now. Collect the information of our company’s senior executives and sift out the potential candidates. Focus on those with good character. As long as Katherine can have her own family, there will be no more trouble.

“Also, help me screen through those eligible bachelors in Kranson City”

Jan was aghast when he saw how serious Valerie was. He had just returned from overseas with his head held high yet he was asked to be a matchmaker. With a pained look on his face, he protested, Valerie, surely this is not good?”

Valerie looked up from her desk. “You don’t want to do it?”

lan did not miss the sharpness in her eyes and quickly explained. “No, of course I want to do it. I just think it’s quite difficult. If the other party is unwilling to accept her, won’t she get hurt a second time? And she is pregnant too. God knows what those people will say!”

“Don’t think so much. It’s just a date. We are just taking a look. It’s not like things are going to be confirmed at first glance. This is a choice for both parties.

“Besides, it’s easy to solve the problem of her pregnancy. If the other party really loves her, he won’t mind. Nowadays, people are so open–minded, and rich people have the means to raise another child”

From Valerie’s point of view, feelings were pure. If both parties were on the same wavelength, the guy would not mind her condition and would still accept her and the child.

At this moment, lan felt that something was amiss. This should be an open and transparent matter. Everyone was in the business world and their own interests took priority.

If Katherine really went on blind dates with such people, it would undoubtedly be torture for her

Jan sighed inwardly. Nonetheless, he still hoped that one of these people would be able to help Katherine out of her misery as soon as possible.

That mother of hers was really intolerable.
