Marcus could feel William’s coldness, so he changed the subject and said, “Natasya has been sent to the hospital under the Acma Corporation and she is in ICU now. Hardy is worried that we will intervene, so he arranged a few groups of people to inquire about the situation.”
“Hardy is so careful now because he has suffered from unimaginable losses. You should be more direct since he’s so worried about the Saunders family. We can spread the news that Raelyn is not the daughter of the Saunders family. If Hardy knows about it, he should not have any worries.”
Marcus agreed immediately, “Okay! I’ll arrange it right away!”
The car stopped at the entrance of Wolf Group Hotel while Valeria fell asleep in William’s arms. Fandrey and Deborah did not wake her up either as they gently got off the car while gesturing for William to be silent. He waved goodbye to them with a smile.
After Bobby watched as Fandrey and Deborah entered the hotel, he turned the car around and went to the company.
In order not to disturb Valeria’s rest, William and Bobby stayed silent. The insulating system of the car was very good, so the environment was very quiet. Meanwhile, Valeria was still deeply asleep.
William looked down at her sleeping face with a faint smile. Valeria’s cell phone vibrated a few times. Just then, William heard the sound and glanced at it. It was a message from Abbie.
“Valeria! Did you know? I just saw the news that the famous designer, Mark, is in B City today! I’ve already inquired about his hotel. Let’s go find Mark at night and find a way to ask him to redesign your wedding dress. My bridesmaids’ dress needs to be redesigned as well. You have to be the most beautiful bride, and I want to be the prettiest bridesmaid.”
William replied in Valeria’s tone, “There’s no need for that, my husband has already asked someone to design the dresses.”
“Ah, what does your husband know about this? He’s a blockhead and he wouldn’t understand our taste. Besides, Mark is our favourite designer. I remember we wanted Mark to design our wedding dresses back in university. Now that the opportunity has come, how can we give it up?”
William shook his head when he saw Abbie’s message. Abbie was afraid that Valeria would disagree, so she also persuaded, “Are you worried that your husband will not agree if the wedding dress design is changed? What are you afraid of? I will help you with this matter and persuade your husband. If not, I will ask your father to find Mark. Anyway, in any case, I have to let Mark design the wedding dress for you so that everything will be perfect.”
William couldn’t help laughing when he saw Abbie’s long speech. Valeria, who was in his arms, opened her eyes and looked at William with a confused smile. “What are you laughing at? Did I just dream about something?”
“No, it’s nothing.”
“Where’s Grandpa and Grandma?” Valeria sat upright when she realized that Fandrey and Deborah were no longer in the car.
“They went back to the hotel. You just slept soundly and Grandma told me not to disturb you, so she didn’t wake you up.”
“Hey, I was being too rude!” Valeria was a bit annoyed.
William comforted her, “It’s okay. You’re pregnant and you’re the main priority. No one will argue with you.”
During the conversation, Valeria found the phone in William’s hand and pretended to be angry. “Why did you take my phone? Did you peep at my messages while I was sleeping? Honey, I don’t really like this habit of yours.”
William said seriously, “Who said I peeked at you? I did it out in the open and Bobby can be my alibi.”
Valeria picked up her phone and took a look at it. “You and Bobby would always have each other’s backs, so I have to see what you have done with my phone.” When she saw the message that William sent to Abbie, she pouted and said, “Why did you text Abbie on my behalf?”
“I saw that you were asleep. I was worried that Abbie would be anxious, so I replied. Why do you have to be serious with me? You can use my phone and reply to anyone as you wish!”
William handed his phone to Valeria, who glanced at him and said, “Well, I’m not interested in replying to your messages. By the way, what do you think of Abbie?”
“Nothing!” William replied lightly.
Valeria knew that he would not change the designer when she read the message he sent to Abbie. Needless to say, William would’ve hired one of the top designers in the world and the price tag would be hefty. However, William did not discuss it with her at all when he made the wedding dress.
She did not object at that time, but she really wanted a designer she liked to design her wedding dress. She and Abbie had been worshiping Mark since high school because he was the world’s most famous designer!
However, everything had been decided by William by now. Valeria muttered, “You’re so dumbwitted!”
William pretended not to hear anything as a message came in, so he picked up his phone to look at the message. After Valeria saw that William was ignoring her, she became more and more depressed.
William glanced at the message and saw Valeria pouting unhappily while he secretly laughed to himself.
The message he had just received was displayed on his phone screen and it was in a foreign message. It wrote, “Mr. Howard, I have returned with the wedding dress that has been prepared according to your request. Please bring Madam to try on the dress whenever you’re free. If you are not satisfied, I can modify it at any time. Regards, Mark.”
William sent a message. “I’ll bring my wife over tonight. Thank you for your hard work!”
Valeria didn’t know that William was sending a message to the designer she admired, so she said to Abbie, “Abbie, don’t make trouble. My husband has already made all the preparations.”
“Don’t do that. I’ve already arrived at Mark’s hotel. By the way, Mark is staying in the Wolf Group Hotel and I’ll go check it out. Wait for my good news.”
After sending out the message, Abbie stopped the car and entered the hotel with large steps.
The lobby manager greeted Abbie with a smile when she came in, “Hello, Miss Clark!”
“Which room does Mr. Mark live in?”
“Well… We can’t disclose our guest’s information to others.” The lobby manager looked embarrassed.
“You can’t reveal it to outsiders, but I’m pretty sure you can tell it to your boss. I was sent by Ms Brown to come over.” Abbie arrogantly ordered, “Tell me Mark’s number immediately, or else I will tell Ms Brown to fire you!”
The manager knew that Abbie was Valeria’s best friend. Since his boss doted on his wife so much, provoking Abbie was equivalent to offending his wife. If that happened, Valeria would probably get angry and lash out at him.
However, the Wolf Group’s rules were very strict. If he leaked the guests’ information secretly, he would be in trouble since he was the manager.
Abbie knew what he was worried about when she saw his awkward expression. “I won’t make things difficult for you. Let me ask you something. You just need to nod. Is Mark living on the top floor?”
When the manager nodded, Abbie got her answer and went straight to the elevator. There were only four presidential suites in the top floor. Since the Floyd family and William lived in two of them, Mark must be staying in one of the two rooms that were left.
