Valeria grabbed William’s arm and kept apologizing profusely. However, William kept a straight face and he refused to smile. He didn’t seem to forgive her at all.
Then, he walked out of the elevator and brushed Valeria’s hand away while he strode towards the presidential suite. Valeria was really confused. Was William really very angry?
She really didn’t mean anything else. She just felt that Thomas was kind and friendly. She really regarded Thomas as her elder brother, so why would William be jealous?
Valeria followed William with a bitter face while she repeatedly called out to him. However, he continued to walk forward without looking back at all. William was a very tall man, so she could not catch up with his strides at all.
Valeria saw Bobby and Silas sitting on the sofa when she entered the living room of the suite. They greeted her as soon as they saw her while she walked over and asked them, “Where’s my husband?”
“Sir went to the study room with a straight face. We greeted him, but he completely ignored us. He looks very angry. Who provoked him?” Bobby lowered his voice.
“It’s me. I provoked him,” Valeria answered with a bitter face.
“Ah, I see. How dare he be angry with a pregnant woman like you? Does he have a problem?” Silas glanced at Bobby and lowered his voice further. “Madam, he’s gone overboard. You should leave him alone and wait for him to apologize to you.”
Valeria shook her head. “No, he is really angry. It’s my fault this time.”
“You can’t apologize even if you’re in the wrong. Otherwise, he will become more overbearing and bully you in the future. Men like him have big egos, so you should stand your ground.” Bobby interrupted. “Just let him be and fight him to the end.”
“Yes, go all out against him. We must make him apologize and admit defeat first. If he doesn’t want to, then you can call his father and let him deal with it!” Silas echoed.
Valeria looked at Silas and Bobby. Why did these two people look as though they just wanted to watch the fun?
Moreover, their words sounded so familiar. Wasn’t this what she and Abbie had discussed when they were helping each other out?
Damn, Bobby and Silas are just setting her up to get into trouble. Valeria glared at them and said, “Just you wait! Both of you are making me furious! Ill set both of you up to go on blind dates right away!”
Meanwhile, Michael pushed Abbie onto the sofa in the lounge downstairs. “Tell me clearly! Why did you blacklist me? Why are you ignoring me? What did I do wrong?”
“You’ve been alright. I’m just tired of you!”
“What!? Why are you sick of me? Are you so frustrated that you have to go on a blind date with Thomas? I thought you hated him! Did you do that just to trigger me?”
“Who said that I don’t like Thomas?” Abbie asked with a sneer.
“You told me that you wouldn’t even think of being together with him. What’s the matter now?”
“I said that a long time ago and it’s a different story now. Don’t talk about the past.” Abbie pushed Michael away. “Michael, I won’t deny that I’m attracted to you and I really liked you. But that’s in the past and I don’t like you anymore now.”
“Why not?”
“What do you mean by that? Your mother hates me so much and she constantly humiliates me. Do you think we will have a future together?”
“Abbie, I’m working hard to fix that and I’m already trying to think of a way. Azalea’s marriage will definitely be canceled. I’ve already told grandpa about my decision and he has also agreed. Can’t you just wait a few more days?”
“Waiting isn’t the problem right now. Michael, the problem with our relationship is caused by our families. My parents and my brother will not let me carry such a humiliating label just to be with you. Besides, your mother will never accept me as her daughter-in-law because I’m not on good terms with her. You should be very clear about all this.”
“I know, but I will think of a way. Abbie, please give me some time and I will think of a way to convince everyone!”
“Your mother will never agree to our relationship as she has a deep prejudice against me. She will never accept me and I will never please her in full, so there is no possibility between us. Please don’t contact me after this and let’s go our own ways.”
“I don’t allow it! I will never let you go!”
“You can’t change anything even if you refuse to let me go. Michael, can you abandon your mother? If you can, then I’ll consider being with you!”
“This… Abbie, don’t force me to do something so impossible!”
“I’m not forcing you. I just want to make things clear so that you can see the situation clearly. You can’t abandon your mother, and I will never get along with her. Do you think I enjoy being caught in this situation? Besides, even if your mother can tolerate me, my family will never let me be with you. So, you really don’t have to worry about me anymore. It’s better for us if we break up and let go of each other!”
“You are really cruel! Abbie, I always thought you were the most sensible and gentlest person. I believed that you knew me the best, but I didn’t expect that you could be so cruel!”
“It’s useless to say anything now. That’s it. Don’t look for me again in the future. If my brother knows that you’re still pestering me, he will ask someone to beat you up.”
As Abbie stood up and walked to the door, Michael said in a hoarse voice, “If you really want to treat me so heartlessly, I will marry Azalea as you wish!”
“It’s up to you as long as you’re happy!” Abbie left without looking back while Michael jumped up and kicked the coffee table. He was still angry, so he smashed all the things in the lounge.
The waiter was shocked when he saw the mess after he heard the ruckus, so he immediately called the manager. When the manager rushed over and saw that it was Michael, he smiled bitterly and called Marcus. Just then, Marcus had just arrived at the gate of Wolf Group Hotel and stopped the car. When he heard that Michael went berzerk, he sighed and said, “It’s okay, let him go crazy!”
Marcus quickly entered the elevator and went to the presidential suite. He pushed the door open and didn’t see anyone, so he went to the study door and heard Valeria’s soft voice from inside. “Honey, can’t I make a friend? I really know I’m in the wrong! I promise I won’t add other men on WhatsApp next time!”
William didn’t say anything and Valeria was still begging for mercy. “I promise that I’ll take you with me when I meet Thomas next time. I’ll show you that I’m really not attracted to Thomas at all! I really mean it!”
As soon as Valeria finished speaking, William stood up and grabbed Valeria while he walked to the door.
“Honey, what are you doing? I haven’t finished explaining yet.”
William was so angry that Valeria did not delete Thomas’ number even though she knew that she was wrong. Furthermore, she even planned to take William along to meet Thomas. William was so furious that he laughed and said, “My dear wife, you don’t need to say anything else. You should reflect on your actions first!”
“But I’ve already thought over my actions. Why don’t you tell me what you’re upset about?”
“Sit down and think carefully. You’d better figure it out thoroughly!”
With this, William opened the door and pushed Valeria out. He was immediately faced with Marcus, who was standing at the door. Just then, Marcus rubbed his head awkwardly and said, “Mr. Howard, I have something to do!”
