Chapter 251 Love Me for the Rest of Our Lives

He had always been gentle when he spoke to Valeria. Therefore, she couldn't stand it when he suddenly changed his tone. "Are you yelling at me? Tell me William, are you yelling at me?" "When did I yell at you? You're being unreasonable!" "What about it?" She retorted. "Women are really..." He turned around and left. Valeria was stunned for a few seconds and said, "I'll ignore you from now on if you leave this room!" He stopped, "What do you want me to do, Valeria?" "I want you to keep on loving me! I won't allow you to like other women! I want you to love me for the rest of our lives!" She hugged him by his waist. "Alright, I'll always love you. I'll love you for the rest of our lives!" He promised. "I don't trust you! I'm so anxious and nervous because I feel like I don't have any merits. I'm not smart, and I don't have any talents. I'm so afraid that you will abandon me someday. William, I have nothing now except for you, do you know th

Chapter 252 Drone Marriage Proposal

After he had sent the message, William laid next to Valeria while resting his hand on the top of his head and kept the same posture as her, and they looked at the blue sky together. Valeria felt uncomfortable as William had been quiet. She tilted her head and looked at him, "What are you doing? Are you imitating me?" "Can't I do that?" William asked. "You're so mean!" She glared at him and turned her head away. Suddenly, she heard a strange sound coming from the side of her ear and she looked up in the direction of the sound. She sat up as she saw a drone flying towards them, "Huh? A drone! William, look, a drone is flying over!" William sat up with a smile as the drone flew around them in circles. Valeria looked at it curiously, "Are there other people on this beach?" He replied with a smile, "Maybe!" "Ah, it's not just one drone! There are so many drones! One, two, four... ten drones! What are they trying to do?" Valeria had

Chapter 253 Separate Them At All Costs

After their bathroom adventures, Valeria had to lie in bed to recover, while William went downstairs in high spirits. She laid in bed for a long time before she was fully recovered. She squinted her eyes and giggled when she saw the ring on her finger. She was so happy! She never thought that William would prepare such a sweet proposal for her. She couldn't contain her joy any longer and wanted to share the news with someone, and Abbie was the best candidate to do so. Valeria immediately picked up her mobile phone and called her, "Abbie, I'm so happy today!" "Did something happen?" She asked. "Good news! William proposed to me!" "No way?" Abbie was silent for a few seconds as she was surprised at this news, "When did this happen? You said yes?" Valeria told her about the whole proposal process before asking, "How can I not agree to such a romantic proposal?" "William... This guy is not bad after all!" Abbie sighed, "You and Wi

Chapter 254 Another Reason to Marry Him

Lucas shuddered as it had been many years since he had seen Hayden acting so viciously. Madam Howard's death back then had left a huge impact on Hayden. He couldn't even bear seeing William because he would be reminded of her death, and thus he had sent William abroad at such a young age. He had said that it was for William to have a better future on the surface. But Lucas knew that deep down, Hayden was afraid to look at William's eyes that resembled his wife's. Therefore, Hayden would never allow William and Valeria to be together. However, it seemed like William would never leave Valeria either. Lucas felt that William was rather pitiful. He thought for a moment. "Sir, why don't you tell Sir William the cause of Madam Howard's death? His feelings for Valeria might waver even though they're extremely close right now, once he knew that Valeria was indirect cause of his mum's death." "You think I don't want to?" Hayden sneered. "I would not have let

Chapter 255 Transfer the Assets

The photos were perfect. She was facing the sun and holding it in her palms with a yearning look on her face. His photo composition was flawless as she could not find any faults with it. William lifted his lips and smiled at how satisfied she was, "You know how good I am now, right?" "I knew you were good. Otherwise, I wouldn't have promised to marry you yesterday!" "Nonsense!" He brushed her nose affectionately. They watched the sunrise for a while on the beach before getting on the car to return home. Valeria sat in the passenger seat and happily edited the photos that William had just taken for her on the way back home. She wanted to post them on social media to show them off to her friends. William had been driving when he looked over and saw her editing the photos, and he shook his head with a smile. Valeria posted the photos after she had finished making the final edits and had confirmed that her beauty was fully shown. She had chos

Chapter 256 Evil Intentions

Valeria did not expect a text from Lamont. She thought she misread his name. Why did he contact her in advance even though there was still another day till their appointment? Could there be something else? Valeria stared at the text message for a while. She had to go and see him no matter what had happened, so she replied to the message immediately, "I'll be right there." "I need to deal with some issues, so please don't alert anyone else and come alone, Miss Brown," he sent another message. She frowned and thought for a moment before agreeing with his request, "Okay, I'll go alone later." She immediately rushed to their meeting point after leaving William. It took her a while to find the exact address, but it was just an ordinary two-story house. She stopped the car and rang the doorbell. Valeria was shocked to see the person that had opened the doorbell, "Are you Aunt Lucian?" The one who opened the door was Lucian Barnbook, who used to serve

Chapter 257 No More Hope

Valeria's face suddenly changed at this thought. If that was the case, then Julie and her daughter were the murderers who had indirectly killed her mother. Lucian saw the change in her expression and asked, "Miss Brown, did you think of something?" Valeria nodded. She didn't know why, but she trusted Lucian even though they were not very familiar with each other. She told Lucian about her mother's situation before she died. Lucian was shocked, "So she did not fall sick gradually? It was a sudden illness? That's not normal..." "Yes, even though she was in poor health before, she was only weak and had no other symptoms then. My father asked her to hand over the company responsibilities to him to reduce her load, so that she would have time to take care of her sick body. She only handed over the entire company later." Valeria recalled, "I accompanied my mother abroad, and we stayed there for about three months. She became very healthy during that time. She us

Chapter 258 How A Father Treats His Children

William had returned to the Howard Group casually after he had parted ways with Valeria. When he came out of the elevator, he saw the office door next to his was opened. He glanced inside the room as he passed by just to see Paisley was checking at documents while sitting in front of her desk. He did not stop but straight strode back to his office. His secretary immediately followed up once he saw William had returned, "Mr. Howard, there's a meeting today..." He interrupted the secretary, "Let's not talk about the meeting first. What's going on with the office next to mine?" The secretary immediately replied, "It's more convenient for business partners to be next to each other, so I arranged for Miss Anthony's office to be next to yours." "Hah!" William sneered. He had brazenly refused to cooperate with her yesterday, but he was surprised to see that she had managed to force her way in. Moreover, her office was even arranged to be next to his! Did Pa

Chapter 259 Nothing He Could Do

Hayden and Paisley waited half an hour for William to arrive at the small conference room of the Howard Group's building. Hayden was a little annoyed, so he picked up his phone to call William. William's ringtone rang from outside the door. He walked in nonchalantly once the door was pushed open. Hayden hung up the phone angrily and glanced at the time after seeing him walk in, "You're late! I'll let you off today. If you're late again next time, I'll deduct your bonus!" William raised his eyebrows upon hearing Hayden's words before replying, "I still have a bonus? Speaking of which, Chairman, how much is my bonus per month? Is it enough for me to have a good meal in the Wolf Group?" "We are working right now, so let's talk about work first," Hayden glared at William with a headache. He then looked at Paisley and said, "Paisley, didn't you prepare a proposal? Let's have a look at it." Paisley smiled and handed out the copies of the proposal that she

Chapter 260 Don't Leak Anything Out

In the Central South Building, Kyrie, the assistant with gauze on his eyes, took a contract and pushed the door open in a hurry. "Mr. Brown, the contract is ready. Please have a look at it." Ronald took the contract and read it carefully with a smug smile on his face. "Good! That's good! Print two copies of this contract and let me sign them!" Kyrie agreed and was about to walk out when Ronald called out to him again, "You're fully in charge of this matter, so make sure that no information is leaked out. Do you understand?" "Don't worry, Mr. Brown. I've been with you for so long, so I know the rules!" Kyrie took the hint. Ronald narrowed his eyes and laughed coldly as he watched Kyrie leave to print the contract. This was the consensus he had reached with Hayden at the secret meeting last night. He would transfer all of the Brownard Group's assets to Hayden. In return, Hayden would give him ten billion dollars. Brownard Group would no lon
