Obsession With Mr. Right

Chapter 233

Ashley was scolding an employee harshly with a furious expression on her face.

"Are you deaf? Didn't I tell you that you have to arrange them in a specific way? You never listen to what we've told you.

Just quit if you don't care about your job here, many other people are waiting to take your place after all!."

Valeria frowned as soon as she noticed that Ashley was wearing the company's uniform. Content © copyrighted by NôvelDrama.Org.

It was evident that Ashley was working in the company that Natalie had built up.

Ronald had worn off whatever respect Valeria had left for him by letting his out- of- wedlock child work at Natalie's company.

Valeria's face fell and Abbie, as her best friend, wasn't very happy to see Ashley acting so snobbish either.

She seized the opportunity to bring Ashley down.

Abbie scoffed as she strode over to Ashely, "Look who's here.Isn't this Miss Evans who enjoys stealing others’ boyfriends and bad- mouthing about others? What are you doing here acting all high and mighty?"

Ashley choked on her own words when she heard Abbie.

Her face turned red in an instance as she scowled at Abbie, "Why are you here?"

Abbie grinned, "You're only an illegitimate child whose mother was a home-wrecking wh*re.Who are you to question me when the real heir of the company hasn't spoken up?"

It was then that Ashley noticed Valeria.

The color drained away from her face as she asked Valeria, "Why are you here?"

"I could ask you the same thing," Valeria stared at Ashley coldly,.

"Why don't you enlighten me?"

"Dad needed a director for the Design Department, and I came because I majored in design.Why? Did no one inform you about it?" Ashley retorted.

Ashley only needed a few seconds to recover from the initial shock to see Valeria in the office building.She was acting so obnoxious that even a fool could understand her aggressive undertone.

Valeria hissed through her gritted teeth, "You? Are you sure you're qualified?"

"Apparently yes, Dad was the one who hired me anyways" Ashley shrugged.

Valeria's lack of concern just drove Abbie up the wall.

"Valeria? How are you this calm?"

"Miss Clark, this is a family matter.Keep your nose to yourself; Ashley replied as she was unruffled by Abbie’s anger.

"What can you do about it if I chose not to?"Abbie scorned.

"You'd better watch your tongue, or else I have a hundred ways to make your life miserable.Try me."

Of course, Ashley wouldn't try Abbie's patience because Richard could skin her alive if she did so.

Abbie turned to Valeria once she had subdued Ashley.

"Valeria, go up to confront your dad about it right now.He has gone too far this time to let his illegitimate daughter to hold such a position...What is he thinking!?"

"Mr.Brown isn't around,"Ronald's assistant said as he rushed to them from the entrance.

He knew what was going on between the three women just from a glance.He nodded to Valeria and Abbie as he tried to smooth things over, "Miss Brown, Miss Clark.To what do we owe the pleasure to have both of you here?"

"Where is Dad if he's not in the office?" Valeria asked.

"Mr.Brown is in a meeting with a customer, and he sent me back to get some files," The assistant answered dutifully.

"By the way, weren’ t you abroad, Miss Brown? When did you come back?" Valeria scrutinized the assistant's every microexpression, and it didn't seem like he was lying.

She suppressed her annoyance and replied, "This morning"

"l see...Do you want to visit the office then?" he asked.

"There's no point if Dad isn't around," Valeria shook her head.

"I'll leave now."

The assistant nodded before walking Valeria and Abbie to the front door to see them off, and he only returned to the lobby after their car drove out of his sight.

Ashley was waiting for him in the lobby.

She pulled a long face and asked in displeasure once she saw him, "Why did you lie? Dad's in his office, isn't he?"

The assistant glanced at her and answered impatiently, "Miss Evans, what do you think will happen if Miss Valeria and Miss Clark went upstairs? They'll fight with Mr.Brown.Do you want to see that?"

Of course, Ashley would be glad to see that, but she couldn't tell the assistant the truth.

She let out a long breath and answered, "No.But Valeria will know that I work in the company sooner or later, right?"

"Mr.Brown has his plans.Miss Evans, please do not act rashly and spoil his plans," He said before turning to leave her without waiting for her reply.

Ashley glared at his back.

She already knew that the assistant didn't take her seriously simply by how he addressed her and Valeria.He addressed Valeria as surname ‘Brown’, yet he was still calling Ashley by her last name.

Ashley swore to herself, "Just wait, I'll make sure to get back my position one day."

By then, she was sure that Valeria would be facing humiliation and a ruined reputation.

Meanwhile, William sat behind the desk in the president's office for the Wolf International Group.

Marcus stood across the desk, "William, I've collected a sample of Ronald's DNA.What should I do next?"

William frowned, "Send his sample along with Valeria's to a paternity test center later.I think Ronald swapped her DNA with someone else ‘s when he did the test previously..."

"Why would he do that?" Marcus was surprised.

"Could it be that he thinks that Miss Brown isn't his daughter? That's crazy!"

"It was confusing to me at first, but it isn't impossible.He's capable of doing these things" William said grimly.

William looked troubled, "What will he do if the paternity test showed that she isn't his biological daughter?"

Marcus immediately knew where William was coming from.

He replied, "He's already ignoring her right now, so he won't show her any forgiveness is Valeria isn't his daughter by blood.Now that Miss Brown is the major shareholder of the Brownard Group, he'll definitely try to get his hands on the shares first."

"That's right.We must do anything we can to prevent that from happening" William sighed.

Marcus nodded, "Alright, I'll arrange for the test immediately."

William gave a small plastic bag with a few strands of Valeria's hair to Marcus and ordering, "I need to know the results soon, so get them to come up with the results as soon as possible!"
