《That Stranger Lying Beside Me》全部章節：第 161 章 - 第 170 章

Charles hung up the phone and he went back to the discussion room. Valeria was uneasy as she sat in the waiting room. Charles wasn't a kind person. Would William get into trouble because of him? Should she inform William? She was so worried about him that she couldn't just sit and do nothing. As she decided to call William and inform him about it, she walked out of the room to go to the washroom. As soon as she walked out the door, the lift chimed and William walked out with his hands in his pockets. Bobby was behind him and they walked in the direction of Valeria. She opened her mouth and intend to say something. However, William's expression was cold to the core. He didn't even spare her a glance and he walked past her as if they were strangers. Valeria swallowed back the words that were caught in her mouth. She felt that she was being ridiculous and she almost wanted to laugh at herself. William now had Paisley as his girlfriend, so she migh

Once Julie hung up the phone, she threw her phone on the sofa in anger. She then shouted angrily, "What type of luck is this? That little witch is on a roll. How did she get acquainted with William Howard and also with Hardy Anthony? Is she that great?" "What should we do now? Are we going to just sit and watch?" Ashley asked. "Of course not. Hardy probably doesn't know about her scandals in the past. We should find a way to let Hardy know about him and William. I don't think he'll still be interested in him after knowing about that." "But we don't even know him well enough. How are we going to tell him these?" Ashley asked. "We should look for Elizabeth Eich. Since we share the same enemy, we can be friends. Let's tell her about what happened between Valeria and Hardy. Mason is in such a bad state while Valeria is having the time of her life. I'm sure Elizabeth would not be happy to see her like that." In the Howard family, Hayden was all smiles in the li

In the afternoon, she excused herself by saying she needed to take care of some matters. However, she returned to Lake View Nest. Everything was the same as the day they had quarreled. She didn't clean up that day as she left in a rush. William most definitely wouldn't come back to clean it up. She reminisced the sweet memories she shared with William as she stared at the messy house. There was a pang of hurt as Valeria bent down to clean the mess. After she was done, she walked to the room with heavy footsteps. She could see her suitcase once she opened the door. The luggage was packed when they quarreled for the first time. She sat by the bed and stared into space as she looked at the luggage. The last time she came back to pack her bags, William had rushed to stop her from leaving. Would he do the same this time? She knew that it was only her wishful thinking. William had already admitted that they had broken up. So why would he stop her?

Paisley could not fathom William, but her heartbeat erratically when she looked at his gentle smile. William's smile was really too charming. Indeed, what Hardy said that she was only attracted to his appearance was actually true. He was just so handsome that she didn't mind if he didn't have any talents. Paisley felt much happier as she looked at his appearance. So she held up her glass to bring a toast to William, "Here's to you, Mr. Howard. Congratulations for your collaboration with Acma Corporation today!" He had embarrassed Hardy that day, but here Paisley was congratulating him. William was slightly surprised by her attitude. So he smiled and clinked his glass with hers. "Thank you, Miss Anthony." Richard and Michael locked eyes as they saw how Paisley took the initiative to speak to William. Richard then said, "I heard that Mr. Anthony was embarrassed deeply by him. Aren't you angry with him?" "My brother's business has nothing to do with me." Pais

Marcus paused for a moment before replying, "Mr. Howard, they've successfully bid on that piece of land. I think..." William sneered. "Successfully bid? Ha! They only succeeded because of underhanded means. You just have to send the evidence of it," William sneered. Marcus knew that William made up his mind. Hardy was definitely going to suffer a loss this time. "Mr. Howard, haven't you always been at peace with Hardy? Why..." "That guy and Ronald collaborated and stole my woman. I can't just swallow this anger. If I don't get my revenge, I might die of anger," William let him know his plan to get revenge. Marcus found it somewhat amused, "Mr. Howard, regarding Miss Brown, you can..." "Don't mention her. I am someone that will take revenge if I have to. I'll respect her if she wishes to be with Hardy. So don't ever talk to me about this again. By the way, go and transfer one billion dollars to Bobby. And let him give it to Valeria." "What do you mean
