Chapter 116

Valerie’s fingers trembled as she stopped herself from calling the police. Now, let alone calling the police, she was simply toomed to show her face. Who would have thought that she had found the wrong tonight and had such an

encounter? She was so flustered just now that she almost forgot to see what that damın man looked like!

“Miss Warren? Miss Warren, are you alright?” Seeing that she did not speak for a long time, the other party asked worriedly.

Valerie thought, ‘All right? No, I’m in a terrible state!”

However, strictly speaking, Valerie could not blame the customer. She took a deep breath and forced a smile. “Alright, sir. I’ll wait here. Call for an errand boy as soon as possible.”

While waiting for the errand boy, Valerie returned to the clubhouse.

The clubhouse actually required a special membership card to enter and exit, but for some reason, Valerie only gave the room number to the doorman, and he let

her in.

After observing for a while, Valerie roughly guessed the reason. Her outfit was too business–like. The doorman and receptionist probably treated her as the secretary of the patron in Room 503, so they did not stop her so as not to offend the patron.

Valerie took advantage of this and went to the front desk. She said that she wanted to check the information registration for her boss. As expected, the staff at the front desk did not suspect anything and showed her the information form.

Valerie took the opportunity to memorize the man’s cellphone number.

Although she did not think that she would have any more contact with that man, it was still a precaution that she needed to take.

It turned out that memorizing the man’s number was a correct move. In less than a month, Valerie found out that she was pregnant. Coupled with the fact that her mother was crazily forcing her to get married, she did not want to replace anyone to make do with. She also did not want another man to marry a woman like her when

she was pregnant.

Hence, the man whom she met that night became her best choice.

Just like that, this man was now her husband. They lived under the same roof. Fate was really a strange thing.

If she hadn’t suddenly smelled the perfume. but think that he would be a good father…

But now.

is suit just now, she couldn’t help.

Valerie could not suppress the strange feeling in her heart. She had originally planned to calm down and think about how she should deal with their relationship next, but now that she saw him, her mind could not think clearly.

Fortunately, Matthew quickly said what was on his mind.

“There’s still a big difference between a piano and an electronic keyboard. The keys of an electronic keyboard are light and soft. It can’t train the muscles in Aiden’s hands or show the emotions of a song, so it’s better to use the piano. Since Aiden doesn’t have a piano to practice for the time being, it just so happens that my old piano is collecting dust at home. I’ll get someone to send it over tomorrow for Aiden to use.”

“I see. Thank you, Mr. Grant. If there’s nothing else, I’ll go back to my room to wash up.

Valerie thanked him, unwound her scarf, and placed it on the shelf by the door. She was about to enter the house but she did not notice Matthew frowning.

Just as she was about to push open the door, there was sudden darkness in front of her. Matthew appeared from behind her and placed his right hand on the door.

Valerie’s body instantly stiffened. Even though she did not look him in the eye, she could feel the pressure from him just by looking at his back as he landed on the door. Her hand was on the doorknob, but she did not dare to turn it.

His–shadow almost enveloped her entire body and instantly brought her back to that night. His clear breath trapped her entire body. Valerie did not dare to move, afraid that something unexpected would happen if she moved.

Then, she heard Matthew’s displeased tone,

“Are you avoiding me?”

Valerie wondered, Was my actions so obvious?”
