Obsession With Mr. Right

Chapter 230 

William frowned at the mess that he couldn't figure out.He raised his eyes and noticed that Valeria was already waving at him, asking him to go to her.

Suddenly, he made a wild guess that Ronald might have done a paternity test with Valeria.

It was said that daughters were supposed to look like their fathers.

And Valeria did not even bore a bit of resemblance to Ronald.

William's heart sank at the thought.

Then, he quickly dismissed it because many children didn't resemble their parents.

"Keep an eye on Ronald, will you?" He instructed Marcus.

"I have a bad feeling about what he's going to do next."

Then, he hung up and headed towards Valeria.She was pouting, "Who is that? Why do you need to answer that away from me?"

He smiled, "It was an important call, and it's quieter over there."

"Fine.Say, William, do you think I'm a little too unreasonable? I'm always worried that other better women out there will snatch you away from me.And given what Paisley has done..." Valeria sighed.

"I mean, what do you see in me anyway? I'm all good looks and nothing else"

Upon hearing her self-appraisal, William burst into laughter, "You're such a cheeky girl.No one compliments themselves this way!"

"But I am pretty though.Don't tell me you'll still save me that day if I was ugly, “ Valeria questioned.

William shook his head and admitted, "Fine then.I saved you because I was charmed by your good looks, I admit it"

"I knew it"

Valeria rolled her eyes, "But, honestly, if you were plain-looking, I would rather die than to have let you come near me that night."

William heartily laughed when he heard her cute confession.

After all , people usually wouldn't be so honest about it.

He reached out to rub her nose lovingly and chuckled, "You love me only for my looks then? Are you going to leave me when I grow old and ugly?"

"Well, “ Valeria frowned.

"I don't think I'll leave you.After all, I like you because you're you, not only because of your looks."

"That's so sweet of you to say that,"

William beamed, "Don't worry.From now on, I won't let anyone bully you."

Pleased to hear that from William as well, Valeria threw herself into William's arms.

"I know you love me, William.But I just can't stop worrying...After all, it's no doubt that your dad doesn't like me.He might force you to leave me and make you marry any other lady from a respectable family.I will be heartbroken..." Material © NôvelDrama.Org.

"You don't have to worry about that.Just remember that I love you, okay? As long as you have faith in me and in us, nothing can separate us."

Reassured, Valeria cheered up and toured around town with William.

Then, at noon, he brought her to a high-end restaurant for a buffet lunch.

After that, they went to Port Stephens Beach for sandboarding.

Valeria had never been there before, so, naturally, she had a whale of a time.

It was already seven in the evening when they left the beach, and Valeria was exhausted after their long day.

So, she fell asleep in William's arms on their way back to the villa.

He tugged a strand of loose hair behind her ears while looking at her affectionately.

As William was admiring her lovingly, his phone suddenly beeped.

It was a brief text message from Marcus, "Sir Hayden just made an appointment with Ronald."

William frowned as he read the message.It was definitely because of him and Valeria.

Hayden must have thought the best approach was to make Ronald do something about Valeria.

Hayden didn't care about all his alleged girlfriends before this.

Why was he overreacting when it came to Valeria? Valeria was such a kind and gentle girl.

Even though not everyone liked her, it was definitely not enough for Hayden to hold such a hatred for her.

Especially to the point where he would go out of his way to meet Ronald about it.

He had always thought he could be the master of his own fate, including who he married.

However, it looked like that wouldn't be the case.It was hard to get Hayden's approval.

William couldn't understand Hayden's intention and it irritated him.

Meanwhile, Ronald was waiting in a private room for Hayden.

Very quickly, footsteps began approaching the room.

And Hayden soon appeared at the doorsteps, accompanied by two bodyguards in dark clothes.

Ronald stood up and greeted Hayden with a fawning smile, "Mr.Howard, good day!"

To which Hayden nodded and sat down without a word.Soon, someone brought freshly brewed coffee to their table.

When they were finally alone, Hayden sipped on his coffee as he gazed at Ronald.

He started, "Mr.Brown, we need to talk about your daughter and my son."

Hayden was treating him in a very gentle manner, which made Ronald's heart tighten.

After all, Hayden was an influential and highhanded figure in B City.

Usually, other people needed to pay court to him, not the other way around.

Ronald had never seen him so amiable before.

So, Ronald couldn't help but worry if Hayden wanted to meet him to talk about Valeria and William's possible marriage.

If it was really the case, he couldn't possibly agree to it after finding out that Valeria wasn't his daughter earlier that day.

He wasn't going to let Valeria off the hook.

At the very least, he must strip all the shares off Valeria's hands and marry her to an old and ugly man.

This way, Natalie's spirit would not be at ease.

However, if it was really Hayden's intention to ask Valeria to marry William, he could not do anything to shake Valeria.

Ronald, torn between his own warped desire or a bright future for his business, just smiled.

Meanwhile, Hayden did not want to waste time as he never had a good impression of Ronald who was greedy and good-for-nothing.

"I'll be frank with you, Mr.Brown.I suppose you already know that your daughter is in a relationship with William, my son, right? I have nothing against Valeria, but I don't like the idea of her being Mrs.Howard.You'd be doing me a favor if you can talk some sense into Valeria."
