Chapter 831 A Pang of Sourness

Book:That Stranger Lying Beside Me Published:2024-6-1

Wasn’t this the jewelry that Callum bought at the auction? Angel always thought that he bought it for her birthday gift, so she did not expect him to take it out to give to Valeria.
This was her long-awaited birthday present and told everyone about it in New York. Now that Callum had given the jewelry to Valeria, how could she face the others?
Other than that, the gift was not cheap, and Callum spent a lot of money to get it when it was auctioned. What right did Valeria have to accept such a valuable thing?
Angel felt extremely angry, but she couldn’t stop Callum, and she could only watch as Valeria took over the present and opened it in front of everyone.
The jewelry shined brightly in the box, and Valeria exclaimed in surprise, “It’s so beautiful!”
William was also very surprised since he thought that the Floyd family would just give Valeria a random gift, and he did not expect them to gift her something so valuable.
After receiving such a valuable gift, Valeria was very surprised and happy, “Thank you for the gift! I’m very happy!”
“That’s good!” Callum thought of Emily when he saw Valeria’s smile. Valeria and Emily looked so similar when they smiled. What was going on?
Deborah also thought of Emily when she saw Valeria’s smile, and a hint of complicatedness flashed across her eyes.
Emily made Callum lose his mind and almost give up his position as the heir to the Floyd family. Valeria and Emily were very similar, and William was completely head over heels for Valeria. Was this a good or bad thing?
Fandrey, on the other hand, didn’t think so much. He felt guilty as he looked at Valeria’s smile because he and Deborah did not prepare anything at all, and it was all thanks to Callum that there was a gift. Otherwise, they would have been so embarrassed.
Seeing that the Floyd family had actually prepared such an expensive gift for Valeria, William was very happy and smiled as he invited them to dine in the restaurant.
The Wolf Group’s dinners were always high quality, and this was Azalea’s first time enjoying such a meal, so she was extremely excited. After sitting down, she couldn’t wait to take pictures and videos to share on her social media.
When Thomas saw her taking photos, he looked at her with a warning gaze. However, she ignored his gaze and continued to post the photos. Immediately after she posted them, she received a few likes.
Meadow left a comment asking, “Azalea, is the Floyd family treating you well?”
“Yes! Very well!” Azalea replied.
“Remember to get close to the elders of the Floyd family. By the way, is it easy to get along with the young lady of the family?”
“No, it’s so hard. She is the only one who treats me very coldly. Everyone else is polite and welcoming towards me.”
“You don’t have to entertain her. Just please Fandrey, Deborah, and Callum.”
Azalea remembered Meadow’s advice and thought about how to please them.
Since Azalea posted it on her public social media account, Natasya also saw her post. She was extremely jealous that Azalea had the chance to dine in the Wolf Group’s best private room.
Azalea’s identity and status were not enough for her to eat in Wolf Group’s best private room, but Natasya saw Angel’s figure in some of Azalea’s photos. Was Azalea eating with the Floyd family?
How did Azalea know people from the Floyd family?
Natasya found it strange and immediately sent Azalea a message, “Are you at the Wolf Group? Who are you with?”
Azalea replied to her in high spirits, “Yes, I’m receiving the best service in the Wolf Group in its best private room with the Floyd family.”
Natasya was shocked, “How did you get to know the Floyd family?”
“It’s a long story.” Azalea did not want to casually reveal the reason why she got close to the Floyd family.
Natasya asked her again, “Is Valeria there as well? Doesn’t she hate you? Why would she tolerate you being there?”
Azalea said triumphantly, “Of course she’s not happy that I’m here, but she can’t do anything about me now since I came with the Floyd family. She wouldn’t dare to offend them.”
“Really? How do they treat her?” Natasya asked.
“They’re treating her alright. After all, she is a pregnant woman. Also, they gifted her the beautiful set of jewelry that belonged to the princess! How nice!”
“Are you sure that they gave her the jewelry they won at the auction? You’re not mistaken?” Natasya asked in disbelief.
“Yes! How could I be? That set of princess jewelry was so memorable at that time. I looked at it over and over again for at least a thousand times!”
Natasya looked at the message from Azalea with a sneer. Angel must have been devastated that the Floyd family gave the set of jewelry to Valeria.
She heard from her foreign friends that Angel had once said that that set of jewelry was Callum’s birthday gift for her. Now that her birthday gift was given away, Angel’s vicious heart must hate Valeria to death.
She had to seize the opportunity to take advantage of Angel and let Angel teach Valeria a lesson. It was best to let her kill the child in Valeria’s belly.
Natasya thought for a moment and immediately sent a message to Angel, “Ms. Floyd, is Azalea eating with you?”
“How did you know?” Angel asked.
“Azalea posted it on her social media. She had a conflict with Valeria before, so I was surprised to see them eating together.”
Angel was stunned at the message she received from Natasya, “Are you sure Azalea had a conflict with Valeria?”
“Yes! Valeria also used the power of the Saunders family to shut Azalea’s mouth, so she hates and fears Valeria.”
Natasya’s message made Angel glance at Azalea and Valeria. No wonder she felt that the two were acting strangely. Ever since the first time they met, she did not see them have any interactions with each other.
It turned out that the two had a grudge against each other, and Angel sneered in her heart. When she saw William being so caring towards Valeria and taking food for her, she felt a pang of sourness in her heart.
Valeria and William were husband and wife. They could be sweet with each other at any time, so why did they have to show their love for each other when they were treating them to dinner?
It was so annoying! No matter what, William should also take care of her too since she was a guest!
However, ever since they started the dinner, he had never paid any attention to her except for taking care of Fandrey and Deborah. He didn’t take her seriously at all.
She was extremely unhappy, especially when she remembered that her supposed birthday gift was now Valeria’s.
While her heart was brimming with anger, Natasya sent her another message, “Ms. Floyd, do you want to get rid of Valeria?”
