《Trading My Ex for His Uncle》全部章節：第 701 章 - 第 710 章

"You said it was boring when the date was set at the restaurant yesterday. No matter how it's done, you'll find something to criticize. Do you just not want to go on a blind date?" Phoebe asked.Valarie pursed her lips. "I don't want to. If it weren't for you guys pushing me, I wouldn't even consider it."For her, not getting married wasn't a big deal. She'd rather stay single than wake up every day to a face she didn't like, pretending to be happy for the rest of her life."You're driving me crazy! You're in your 30s now, and if you don't get married soon, no one will want you by the time you're 40! Your dad and I are getting older, and after we're gone, how will you manage on your own?!" Phoebe exclaimed.Facing her mother's serious expression, Valarie shrugged. "I'll manage just fine. There are plenty of people who choose not to marry or have kids, and none of them seem to be struggling."Phoebe gritted her teeth. "I don't care! When you get to our age, you'll understand I'm on

"Is it because I arranged our blind date at the racetrack?" Zayn asked.Valarie smiled, but her eyes carried a hint of coldness. "Since you're aware of that, why ask? I have something to attend to, so I won't interrupt your race. Goodbye."With that, she stood up and walked out.Just as she reached the door, Zayn's voice called out from behind her, "Ms. Weir, I admit I haven't thought this through today. Would you give me a chance to make it up to you with dinner?"Valarie halted her steps but didn't turn around. "No, thank you. I seem to recall that you're good friends with Mr. Sumner, right?"Zayn smiled, about to respond when the door to the private room swung open again.Brandon spotted the two of them and froze for a moment, his brows furrowing.What was Valarie doing there?He glanced at Zayn, his eyes questioning."Brandon, you know Ms. Weir, so I don't need to introduce you, right?" Zayn said."Aren't you the one who invited me to watch the race? Why is she here?" Bra

The next morning, Valarie woke up and began her morning routine. She spent over two hours in front of the vanity perfecting her makeup.After applying her lipstick, she looked at the stunning woman in the mirror and couldn't help but smirk self-deprecatingly.She never thought she would find herself needing to use her looks to attract someone.Suppressing her swirling thoughts, she headed downstairs.In the living room, Phoebe was watching TV when she heard footsteps and looked up, momentarily taken aback.Today, Valarie wore a new light green, figure-hugging dress. The first two buttons at the front were designed like water droplets, exposing a portion of her flawless skin—so exquisite it was hard to look away.Her long hair was pinned up with a light green hairpin, and her makeup was delicate, reminiscent of early spring buds swaying in a gentle breeze."Valarie, I didn't arrange any blind dates for you today. Why are you all dressed up? Going out?" Phoebe asked.Valarie repl

Valarie lowered her gaze, remaining silent as she subconsciously picked at her nails.During her silence, Brandon and Jessica walked over to them.Zayn looked up and greeted Brandon with a smile. "Brandon, I didn't expect you and Ms. Quantrill to be here on a date. If I had known, we could've all gone together."Valarie was speechless.She was starting to suspect that Zayn might be a little off his rocker. Who would go on a double date like this? It would be awkward!Brandon cast a detached glance at Valarie, his voice cool. "Jessica is a bit shy. She might feel uncomfortable with too many people around. We have other matters to attend to, so we'll be leaving now."Valarie suppressed the sting rising in her chest. They had just met, and he was already calling her Jessica. Clearly, he was quite satisfied with her.Zayn nodded. "Alright. Let's arrange to meet again next time."Brandon didn't say anything else and walked away with Jessica.When Valarie raised her head again, all

As they approached, they noticed that Damon looked upset.Nyla raised an eyebrow and asked, "Mr. Sumner, have you been waiting too long?"Damon suppressed his discontent and forced a smile. "No, let's head inside."Just then, Mason suddenly looked up at Nyla and said, "Mommy, I need to pee. Can you come with me?"Nyla nodded. "Sure.""I'll take Buddy to the restroom. You two go ahead," she said, taking Mason by the hand and walking away.Once Nyla and Mason were gone, Damon's expression turned icy. "Mr. Raynor, we're here at the zoo as a family of three. What's your purpose in showing up?"Oliver smiled, but his eyes remained cold. "Mr. Sumner, the recent troubles with the Raynor Group—that's your doing, isn't it?"Damon didn't deny it. "Just giving you a little reminder not to interfere with our family time."A sneer flashed in Oliver's eyes. "Do you really think Nyla will forgive you? What kind of family do you think you have?"I asked Buddy, and he's fine with me being her
