Chapter 105
Elizabeth never expected Mason to be so cold-hearted, "Didn't you like Ashley last time? This is too.."
"I never liked her! I just wanted to trigger Valeria because Ashley told me that she's being unfaithful to me.Thus, I hooked up with Ashley out of anger”
Mason denied entirely, "Ashley is an icon of misfortune.My relationship with Valeria was perfect until I met her.So, why should I continue to be with such a disastrous woman?"
After listening to him, Elizabeth kind of agreed with his words as well.
Everything used to be smooth-sailing for Mason when Ashley wasn't around.
A series of unfortunate event had happened ever since he was with Ashley.
Maybe Ashley and Mason weren't really suit for each other ? Despite that, Elizabeth never really liked Ashley in the beginning.
However, it seemed that it was difficult for Ashley to start afresh because her reputation was already in tatters. Original content from NôvelDrama.Org.
It would be good if Mason could get Valeria's heart back, but Valeria's attitude had changed drastically compared to before.
Valeria used to be very friendly and respectful towards her, but recently, she was full of disdain whenever she saw her.
Elizabeth sighed at the thought of this, "It's up to you.If you really dislike Ashley, then break up with her.But we have to settle her pregnancy issue first.Also, there's no need to have high expectations of Valeria.I don't think she can reconcile with you after what you did to her”
I'll apologize to her personally first.Didn't she ask for a sincere apology? My final decision will be based on her attitude"
Valeria was extremely busy today.
After the apology press conference, she was immediately pulled away by Abbie to shop for the Birkin bag she always wanted.
After gifting Abbie a limited edition Birkin bag, Valeria bought a lot of clothes for herself and William.
After that, she and Abbie went for lunch at a hotpot restaurant.
After they finished eating, Ronald's secretary called her.
"I' m sorry for the interruption, Madam, but Mr.Brown is in the hospital now.Come here quickly!"
Valeria had always despised and disliked her father, but she was concerned after hearing that he was admitted to the hospital, "Which hospital is it? I'll be right there."
After hanging up the phone, she looked at Abbie, "Abbie, my dad is in the hospital and I have to go now"
"He's hospitalized? That's shocking! Isn't he still doing fine yesterday?"
Abbie wasn't as anxious as Valeria, "Valeria, your father isn't a good person.You have to be carefull."
"What do you mean?"
"My brother told me last night that your father is a stingy man who loves money.If he knows that you have 500 million in your account, he'd definitely do anything to get it.That's why..."
"There's no way" Valeria doubted if Ronald would really be so despicable.
"Anyway, don't act hastily.Observe before you make a decision.Be cautious if he ever mentions money: After that, Valeria immediately rushed to the hospital.She had her guard up after hearing Abbie's reminder.
Meanwhile, Ronald was being treated with an IV drip.
However, Julie and Ashley were nowhere to be found, except for his secretary who was accompanying him.
As soon as Valeria entered the room, she immediately asked, "What happened? Aren't you doing alright yesterday? Why are you being hospitalised?"
"It's all because of the company's matter..." The secretary sighed.
"Many clients canceled their cooperation with our company after your scandal.Therefore, Mr.Brown had no choice but to meet up with every one of them to make amends.But he is sent to the hospital after drinking too much that it hurt his stomach: "Because of me? Am I that important?" Valeria asked.
She was being extra vigilant in front of him.
"You are one of the shareholders of our company.Therefore, your every movement and every single word would be amplified”
“Valeria glanced at the secretary and walked to the bedside , Dad, are you feeling alright?"
"My stomach hurts...It's uncomfortable..." Ronald replied weakly.
Then, Valeria's gaze fell on his face.
She remembered how William had a stomach ache because of some spicy food he ate that night.
That day he looked pale and sick.
However, Ronald looked fine.His eyes were full of vitality and his complexion was healthy.
Everything was alright except for his croaky voice.
Was he pretending to be sick? Why did he do that? What the hell was he scheming again? Perhaps it was really like what Abbie said about him? Valeria thought in her mind, but she didn't say it out, "What did the doctor say?"
"The doctor said that he would get better after an IV therapy and some antiinflammatory medication"
The secretary continued, "But now Mr.Brown is worried about the company's affairs.Recently, the company was experiencing a huge loss of clients, and currently experiencing a shortage in funds.Mr.Brown is really worried about the money!"
Upon listening to her words, Valeria immediately knew what was on Ronald's mind.
He was just eyeing her 500 million dollars, wasn't he? Valeria laughed silently, but she didn't express it out.
"Ah, the company short of money? Why didn't you tell me earlier? I received a compensation of 500 million dollars yesterday.If only you told me earlier, I could've lent it to you.But now...the money has been taken away!"
"What do you mean? Who took away the money?"
Ronald, who was pretending to be sick, almost jumped out of his bed upon hearing this.
"Oh, Michael took it,'' Valeria replied.
"That's actually Michael's lawyer fee.He promised to help me file a lawsuit, and of course, the compensation I gained is all transferred to him.Ugh, if only you had said it earlier, I would definitely help
you out using the money first.Sadly, it is all given to Michael now!"
Upon hearing this, Ronald was mad with rage, "You unfilial rascal! How dare you scheme on me like this? Do you still have a conscience?"
"What are you saying? I'm filing a lawsuit because Ashley and Mason slandered me.What does it have to do with you?"Valeria refuted.
"I'm the one who paid one million dollars in your total compensation fee of five million.Now tell me, how could it have nothing to do with me?"
Ronald was extremely furious.
Without pretending, he immediately plucked off the needle on his arm.
"Aren't you ill? Why don't you tell me the reason for paying the one million? I'm not expecting you to pay for it.So, what does this have to do with me?" Valeria sneered.
"And as far as I know, you never care about me when I was framed by Ashley and Mason.All you did was scold me on the phone.But how are you so kind and generous now? Perhaps I, the daughter of the Brown family, can't be compared to an illegitimate daughter, is it? If that's the case, aren't you too disappointing?"
Ronald was at a loss for words after Valeria's refutation.
To vent out his anger, he immediately flipped out and threw the cup of the table, "Get out! Get out of here right now!"
Valeria glanced at his fiery red face.
Then, she walked out of the ward.
However, her eyes suddenly turned red when she entered the elevator.
Ronald was willing to pay 100 million for the sake of that b *tch, Ashley Evans.
But he had no sympathy for her at all; instead, all he did was taking advantage of her.
Just how could he be so despicable and shameless?
