Chapter 965 Do as Told

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

In the president’s office of Wolf Group’s International Sector, William walked out of the conference room to find Bobby waiting at the door. He was stunned and asked, “What happened?”
Bobby went up to him and reported, “Miss Brown had some unpleasant encounters in the morning. Paisley looked for her at the house, so some conflict broke out, and Paisley was punished.”
“Is Valeria okay?” William’s face darkened.
“She is fine. Mr. Howard, do you want to make a phone call to ask about the situation?”
As soon as Bobby finished speaking, William was already on a call with Valeria, “Are you scared?”
“No!” Valeria smiled and said, “Auntie was protecting me, and it’s impossible for Paisley to hurt me.”
“You can still laugh?” William’s voice became stern, “What did I tell you? You cannot come into contact with people like Natasya and Paisley at any cost. Are you ignoring my advice?”
“Honey, are you angry? I’m fine though, and I went with the auntie, so I knew that someone would protect me. Otherwise, I wouldn’t have gone to see her.”
Valeria said in a gentle voice, “I just wanted to see Paisley make a fool out of herself. After all, she used to be so arrogant in front of me. I know I was wrong, and I won’t do it again! Hubby, don’t be angry at me, okay?”
Since she apologized quickly, he eased his expression and said, “Remember that you’re not alone. You are carrying our children, so we have to be extra careful, and your safety is the most important thing!”
“I’m sorry, this won’t happen again! I apologize! I love you!”
“I love you too!” He couldn’t stay mad at her when she said that she loved him in that tone of voice, so he calmed down and continued, “You’re not allowed to go anywhere else today. The wedding planners will be there in the afternoon, so you can tell them everything you have in mind.”
“Okay! Can I ask Abbie to come over?”
“You can do whatever you want at home. You should also call Braelynn over since she’s also going to be your bridesmaid. Let’s see if they have any opinions to discuss.”
Valeria answered happily, “Alright, I’ll invite them over right away!”
William looked at Bobby and said, “How did they deal with Paisley?”
“One of her hands and two ribs were broken.”
“They went easy on her!” William replied calmly.
Bobby nodded, “Yes, indeed. I already gave them the instructions. If I were the one there, I wouldn’t have held back.”
William ordered, “This woman is vicious and shameless, and not the slightest bit of kind, so she won’t let go of this shameful incident. Keep an eye on her to see what she’s up to and prevent anything from happening.”
“I will arrange it, but she will not give up on today’s matter. Therefore I have already dealt with her just in case.”
“What did you do?” William asked with a smile. He always trusted Bobby, but he was still a little interested in how he dealt with the situation.
“Just the old school way. After I heard the report, I immediately arranged for a pretend pregnant woman to be sent to the hospital because of a brawl, and I edited the woman’s face onto Valeria’s in the video of Paisley and Valeria’s encounter at the house. The video is trending right now. The infamous daughter of Acma corporation was bullying a pregnant woman to the point of hospitalization! The rest is up to you.”
“Not bad! It’s good to make the first move before the Anthony family does. Well, Paisley definitely has no way out of this! If that’s the case, then what are we waiting for? We can just get Marcus to tell the Public Relations Department to do it.” William laughed out loud, “Not to mention, you’re quite despicable.”
“You came up with this a long time ago, and I just took advantage of this situation to copy your idea.” Bobby rubbed his head and smiled bashfully. In the end, the mastermind was still William.
Hearing what he said, William laughed and went back to his office.
Back in the Saunders family, Gavin was in an extremely bad mood. He only had a few mouthfuls of lunch before putting it away.
Arthur knew that he was in a bad mood, so he personally made him a cup of tea, but Gavin did not drink it and sighed heavily, “I don’t know if my child is still alive! As long as she is alive, I am willing to sacrifice anything!”
Seeing Gavin acting like this, Arthur was also uncomfortable, “You and your wife are both kind people, and good will always be rewarded with good, so I believe that she will be fine.”
“If only that was true. I can’t believe that I was oblivious to such a vicious thing living in my presence for so many years! I really… Ugh… I treated my biological son and grandchildren so badly for such a vicious person. I am really silly!”
Gavin smiled bitterly as he felt stupid and ridiculous. Arthur was afraid that he would feel depressed so he said, “Mr. Saunders, Raymond, and Valeria are all kind people, so they don’t blame you. Don’t think too much about it. This is all that wicked woman’s fault, not yours! You were deceived!”
Arthur’s words made Gavin feel even more ashamed, “I was even prepared to share Valeria’s shares with Raelyn. I’m really…”
“Mr. Saunders, don’t think about it anymore. If you miss Miss Brown, I will call her for you and ask her to come back to visit you.”
“There’s no need for that. She’s pregnant right now, so it’s not convenient for her to move. I’m the one who should go over to visit her. Didn’t Hayden want me to apologize to her? I’ve made a fool out of myself for trusting a vicious woman who didn’t turn out to be my daughter, so it’s no big deal to apologize to Valeria. Go and prepare yourself, let’s go to the Howard family.”
Seeing that Gavin finally figured things out, Arthur immediately agreed and was ready to leave to prepare the gift when his phone rang, and he answered it. Emily’s soft voice came from the other end, “Hello, Mr. Saunders. I am Emily Poland, the one who hit your car last time. Has your car been fixed? I want to ask about the maintenance fee for it.”
“Yes, Ms. Poland! The car has not been sent to repair, so we don’t know the amount yet, but Mr. Saunders said that you don’t have to take responsibility for it.”
“Thank you so much, but this is my fault, so I will try my best to shoulder this responsibility.”
Arthur conveyed Emily’s words to Gavin, and he sighed, “She is a kind and responsible person. Since she insists, you can tell her the fees when we send it for repair so that she can ease her mind.”
Arthur relayed his words to Emily and hung up the phone. Then, another phone call came in. Arthur picked it up and realized that it was from the hospital, “Hello, the patient on Bed 13 is making a fuss to see you and Mr. Saunders. Otherwise, she’ll go on a hunger strike till death. What do you think?”
“She’s too much!” Arthur sneered, “Raelyn wants to see you, or she’ll die on a hunger strike.”
“Really? Then let’s agree to the nurse’s request! It’s time to meet this brutal and cruel person!”
