“Please, come in,” Hazel and Quist Austeegard gently spoke, with Hazel’s hand holding Valencia tightly and her eyes focused on Valencia, as if she was afraid that if she blinked, Valencia would disappear from her sight. Seeing the motherly love she had missed all her life, Valencia’s heart melted, and she felt as if she had been submerged in sweetness, making her feel warm. It turns out that she had a good family, and the heavens never created her to be stuck with a family that schemed against her and didn’t love her. The minute Valencia stepped into the beautiful mansion, she instantly felt a feeling she hadn’t experienced in her life: the feeling of belonging. The feeling of home. And it made tears well up in Valencia’s reddened and swollen eyes. Upon seeing Valencia on the verge of crying, tears slipped past Hazel’s eyes, and she wrapped her hands around Valencia with remorse and self-regret gnawing deep in her heart. “I’m so sorry, Valencia. I’m so sorry. It was all my fault,
Sapphire's eyes turned cold, and she instantly raised her fingers in a meaningful way. Upon seeing Sapphire's action, the guards who had initially stood calmly while pointing their guns at the group instantly cocked them. Their eyes frosted and filled with killing intent. It was as if receiving just a slight hum of approval from Sapphire meant the group would be gone. Sapphire's eyes fell on Valencia, and she felt a surge of fury and loathing overwhelm her. The Austeegard couple were such a peerlessly beautiful pair, with beauty enough to topple nations and ruin cities. Meanwhile, Sapphire's face was just one that was easy to bypass in a crowd. Although people had always restrained themselves from speaking the truth in Sapphire's presence due to fear, nevertheless, the words they spoke behind her back had always somehow invaded her ears. That served one purpose. People never failed to comment on their shock—how such a beautiful couple could give birth to someone with such an avera
Valencia’s brows furrowed, and she stepped out of the presidential suite. She hadn't seen Maverick ever since she woke up. And even when she had bathed and put on her dress, she still didn't catch a glimpse of him.How can it be? Where can he run off to so early in the morning while he's in that state? Sigh.Valencia twisted the doorknob and pushed open the door.Valencia's expression suddenly softened, and her lips curved up. Such a devilish Maverick. He so loved teasing her a lot. Huff.Despite Valencia's thoughts, her walking pace was fast and steady; Valencia soon arrived at Corbyn's presidential suite, and she was immediately granted entry.And just like Valencia thought, Maverick was with Corbyn.While the two were always acting like mutual enemies, whenever something went wrong, they'd push aside their indifference and work on finding an answer. Their relationship is very interesting.However, it's just that it had been morning since Maverick left the room, which was very unusu
Maverick's loud and teasing chuckle immediately drifted into Valencia’s ear, his lips curved up due to pompousness. Valencia fiercely glared at Maverick and began to sulk due to unhappiness. Hmph. Immediately, Maverick’s eyes narrowed in feigned confusion. It was as if he didn't understand why Valencia was reacting in such a manner. After all, Valencia had only told him to stop talking, which he had done. Upon realizing what a shameless person Maverick was, Valencia could only grit her teeth and choose to ignore his teasing. As soon as Valencia pushed Maverick into the bathroom, she fled away from him and chose to settle herself by concentrating on picking the bath necessities. In that way, Valencia would be able to avoid somebody's teasing look. Upon seeing the woman's act, Maverick’s lips curved up in a good mood, and he leaned against the wheelchair authoritatively. If someone hadn't known better, one would think that Maverick was sitting in a majestic chair and staring down
Corbyn squinted his eyes and casually took a glance at Maverick, who was currently being led in a wheelchair by Valencia.He arched his brows and nourished a glance at Maverick and Valencia as if he couldn't believe that Maverick would come along despite his current state.Maverick directly raised his head to shoot dagger-like glares at Corbyn.It was as if Maverick was staring at his long-term enemy and was warning him to stay in his lane.It was right to say that after the initial partnership between the two had ended, they had returned to being the mutual enemies who were always at each other’s throats and wouldn’t let go.Valencia calmly ignored the two and turned to the parents and quadruplets who followed them to bid goodbye.Of course, Valencia wouldn’t just leave the country without explaining what had happened—the truth—and bidding goodbye to the family.Upon hearing Valencia’s explanation, Corbyn had chosen to come along.Hearing this, Valencia had immediately agreed.Valenc
"Valencia." As soon as Roman left, Maverick called in a gentle tone. He extended his hands and grabbed her hand in a comforting manner.Valencia’s lips trembled, and her eyes pooled with tears, but she tried to blink it away. She turned to Maverick with a feigned smile playing at her lips. "I... I... I am..."Before Valencia could regain a hold of herself, she had already burst into tears, her body trembling.How could it be? How could the world be so wicked? All because of envy and hatred, a woman could cruelly do this? Why?Valencia carefully lay in Maverick's bed and wrapped her hand around him tight. Tears streamed past her eyes, and her body trembled. She could only call, "Maverick. Maverick. What to do?" All her life. All her life was nothing but a drama caused by no one but a jealous and dark-minded person.Maverick’s hand wrapped around the woman comfortingly, and he placed her head on his chest, his heart aching on behalf of the woman. "Baby, cry it out. Just know that you wi
