Michael hung up the phone after he was done speaking as William squinted and smiled, “Not bad. You know how to scare your mother!”
Michael threw his phone aside irritably, “I’m not scaring her. You know my family’s situation too, my brothers hate her so much. If things get out of hand, she will definitely be kicked out!”
“She must have suffered a lot this time, so there will be more trouble in the future. She will definitely take it out on you and Abbie.” William laughed playfully, “Michael, you’re so smart and know how to compromise when it’s needed. Why can’t your mother do the same? What the hell!”
Michael shot him an annoyed look and said, “I compromised today because of you. If you weren’t so stubborn with protecting your wife, my parents wouldn’t have to apologize at all, and everything would be solved if I just talked to your Archer about it. It’s all because of your overprotectiveness for your wife!”
“Tsk, what does this have to do with my wife? Isn’t it all because of you? You like Abbie, but Meadow hates her and targeted her because of you. It’s not wrong for my wife to defend her friend, so the culprit is you. You should reflect on yourself!”
“Reflect my ass!” Michael rolled his eyes at him, “Who was the one begging for mercy just now? You’re making fun of me now, but you still need to coax your wife!”
After mentioning Valeria, William sighed and said, “I didn’t even provoke her… I was just worried that she would tire herself out, and then she drove me out!”
“Haha, aren’t you smart and invincible? Are you at a loss now? I’ll help you if you ask me nicely!” Michael laughed at him.
“Get lost!” William ignored him, and Michael shook his head, “So you were being mistaken for your thoughtfulness? I heard Abbie say that…”
Then, he stopped talking. William looked up at him and said, “Continue! Why’d you stop midway?”
“I don’t want to continue! I’ll let you two struggle for a bit.”
William did not care about it any way, “It’s fine if you don’t want to tell me, I’ll just ask Abbie myself. Oh right, let me remind you that I won’t help you again in the future!”
Michael stared at him, and they battled in silence with their eyes until Michael finally gave in and said, “Fine. Abbie told me that Valeria is very angry and unhappy that Natasya has the audacity to even think of you.”
“That’s it? I already knew that. It’s not a secret.”
“Of course that’s not it. Did you think carefully about your wife’s current situation? She is pregnant with two babies, and your father has finally accepted her, so her relationship with you should be public and grand.” Michael reminded him, “But it doesn’t seem like it because of Natasya. Do you know why this is?”
“Because she is shameless?” William replied.
“Humph! No matter how shameless she is, she would not be so shameless as to chase after a married man. It’s because your relationship with Valeria has not been publicly announced, so you owe Valeria an official title.”
William was enlightened, “My wife is angry because of this? It’s all my fault then! I neglected her feelings because I was too hung up on my plan! I assumed that we were husband and wife after we got our marriage certificate, but I ignored her actual feelings. Damn it!”
“You’re finally aware that you’re wrong?” Michael sneered.
After Michael left, William knocked on the door of the master bedroom. After a while, Valeria opened the door and looked at him unhappily, “What do you want? Do you know that you’re disturbing my rest?”
“I do!” He reached out to hold her in his arms, “Did you get angry just now?”
“Nope!”
“Why are you still so stubborn? Look at you…” He lowered his head and kissed her lips, “I was wrong. I apologize!”
“Why are you wrong?” Valeria asked angrily.
“I shouldn’t have angered you, and I shouldn’t have caused you trouble. We will do anything you say!”
“William!” She thought he was being sarcastic and cast a doubtful glance at him.
“I was really wrong! It’s all my fault for not considering your feelings. You planned all of this for my birthday, but I made you mad! I deserve to be hit!” He said as he raised his hand to slap himself in the face, but, of course, Valeria stopped him because she couldn’t bear to see him do that.
She looked at him reproachfully and asked, “What are you doing?”
“I’ve made you angry, so I’ll punish myself!”
“Hum! You’re threatening me. You know that I wouldn’t bear to see you hurt yourself! You’re a bully!”
William smiled and kissed her a few more times, “Wife, what kind of wedding do you like? Western-style, medieval-style, castle-style or forest-style?”
She paused for a moment and looked at him without saying anything. Then, he smiled and said, “It was my fault for neglecting your feelings and delaying the wedding for my plans, so I will arrange it as soon as possible, okay, Mrs. Howard?”
“I’m not angry because of that.” She muttered softly.
William smiled gently, “I know that you’re not a stingy person like that, so I’m just asking you for permission. Why don’t we have a wedding ceremony in every style?”
“Screw you!” She glared at him. It was as if he didn’t take it seriously.
His expression turned serious, “I’m being serious. We’re not short of money, so we can hold different kinds of wedding ceremonies. When we get older, we’ll sit together and watch our wedding videos again. Isn’t that such a beautiful memory?”
“We’ll talk about the wedding later. I know how important your plan is.” Since William was so gentle, she decided to forgive him.
“I know, but a wedding cannot be planned in just a day or two, so I wanted to ask for your opinion. After you’ve decided, just arrange for people to start the preparations!”
“Let’s talk about it after your birthday!” Her anger had completely subsided, but she was hungry now, and William clearly heard the rumble in her belly, “Are you hungry?”
She denied it in embarrassment, “No! Who said I was hungry? My stomach rumbled because I have a tummy ache.”
“Fine, you’re not hungry, but my children are hungry. I’ll ask someone to prepare something for them to eat.” Knowing that she was stubborn, he immediately called someone to prepare food.
Soon, the food was prepared, and William took Valeria to the restaurant. Seeing so much delicious food, she sat down and began to eat.
He stayed by her side as they fed each other mouthfuls of food.
Bobby came out of his room with his mobile phone in his hand, “Sir William, Natasya sent you a message saying that she wants to see you. I ignored her, but she didn’t give up and spammed you with calls. Do you want to pick up or not?”
