Chapter 1041 Why Is He So Handsome?

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

Callum had been sitting silently aside and listening to the call between Rammos and Emily. The sigh of Emily made him depressed.
He frowned and looked at Rammos. “Why did you say nonsense to Emily?”
Rammos explained, “President Floyd, you are in a dilemma between Ms. Poland and your parents. I don’t want to make it difficult for you.”
“It’s none of your business! You only need to tell her about the termination of the contract. There is no need to talk about my difficulties. Emily will think that I instructed you to do so.”
“Ms. Poland won’t think that way.”
“Even if she won’t think that way, I always feel guilty to Emily. I broke my promise back then, and now I can’t even agree to her little request. I…”
Callum was ashamed of meeting Emily. He didn’t want to investigate Abbie, but he couldn’t let himself ignore it anymore because of Emily’s disappointment.
“After termination of the contract with Azalea, you should continue to take care of her and try to arrange a few dramas for her. Also, you should help her to investigate the matter of being trapped!”
“President Floyd, do we really have to investigate Abbie?”
“I know that Azalea has bad attitudes and intentions, but it was still a fact that she was trapped by others last night. Just investigate for the sake of Emily!”
Since Callum had said that, Rammos couldn’t persuade him anymore.
“Alright, I’ll investigate this matter. However, President Floyd, you should tell Master Floyd regarding the investigation of Abbie. After all, it is not a small matter.”
“I will talk to my dad. You don’t have to worry about it. You can arrange someone to terminate the contract with Azalea.”
Valeria slept until morning. When she opened her eyes, she saw William was sleeping next to her with a faint smile on his face.
The man had profound facial features, and his skin was white and flawless.
“Why is he so handsome?” Valeria stared at William’s beauty. The more she looked at him, the more she felt unfair. “How can a man have such flawless skin?”
Valeria’s skin was good, but William’s was even better than her.
Luckily, William was a man and her husband. If he was a woman, he must be extremely attractive.
Valeria stared at William’s handsome face for a long time. Suddenly, a smirk appeared on her face. She had a way to deal with William.
Valeria got up quietly and walked to the dressing table without any sound. She quietly walked back to the bed and drew on William’s face.
Painting a picture of a big red tortoise on this handsome face must be very interesting.
Thinking about it, Valeria almost laughed out loud. After confirming the place of the drawing, she picked up her lipstick to draw. Before her lipstick touched William’s face, William held her hand even his eyes were closed.
Without opening his eyes, he said in a deep and mellow voice, “Piglet, how dare you paint on my face!”
“You’re awake?” Valeria was startled by him, and then she became dissatisfied again. “Why are you getting mad at me? And how do you know I’m going to draw you?”
“I dreamt of a piglet trying to draw a tortoise on my face with a watercolour pen. I was startled and woke up. And when I reached out to grab something, I grabbed your hand.”
“Are you scolding me as a pig? William, you’re too bad!”
“My dear wife, can you be reasonable? I didn’t scold you, but the piglet? I just dreamt of seeing a piglet. I didn’t expect you to draw my face. Dear, it’s immoral!”
“Humph, dreaming? Stop saying such nonsense. You are obviously pretending to be asleep. Do you think I am stupid?” Valeria was unhappy. “You scolded me early in the morning. I am in a bad mood, and my baby is in a bad mood too. You have to compensate us.”
“What compensation do you want?” William opened his eyes and smiled.
“My son told me that he wanted to see if his dad would look better when he put on lipstick.”
“It’s you who want to see it, right?”
“My son wants to see it, so do you agree to put on lipstick?” Valeria stared at William with her hands on her waist, as if she would have another idea if he did not agree.
William smiled helplessly. “Okay, you can do anything if you give me a kiss.”
“Isn’t that simple?” Valeria smiled and lowered her head. They hugged and kissed for a while. William wanted to go further. Valeria pushed him away and said, “Honey, don’t forget what you promised me. You can do anything you want once I am satisfied!”
William looked at her pretty face. His heart was itched and couldn’t wait to kiss Valeria more. However, it was already morning, and he had something to deal with. It would not be fun to do that kind of thing for sure. It was better to wait until night.
He raised his eyebrows and smiled. “Okay, go and get ready. You can do whatever you want later!”
Valeria went to prepare happily. “I must make you a peerless makeup today. After that, we’ll take a few pictures together. Others will surely think we are a pair of sisters.”
“It depends on you. I’ll go wash up first.” William smiled and went to the bathroom. When he was washing, the door was knocked. Bobby said, “Michael? What’s up? Why are you here so early?”
“I have something to discuss with William. Did he get up?” Michael’s voice was weak.
“He hasn’t got up yet. Please wait a minute.”
Hearing the conversation outside, Valeria put away the tools that she prepared for make-up. She got up and walked to the door of the bathroom. “William, did you call Michael here?”
“Darling, can you be reasonable? I haven’t touched my cell phone since I woke up. You can’t wrong me like this!”
Valeria thought about it. William had not touched his cell phone since he woke up. It was unlikely that Michael would be summoned by him to come. She whispered unhappily, “Why did he come here? Shameless. Didn’t he go to Azalea last night? I’ll let him regret his decision later!”
“Go and wash up first. I’ll go out and have a look!” William changed his clothes with a smile and opened the door. Michael sat listlessly on the sofa. William walked out and said with a smile, “Is there something wrong in the early morning?”
“Yes!” Michael answered haltingly and stood up, “Let’s talk in the study room.”
They went to the study and sat down. William looked at Michael whose eyes were blue. “You didn’t sleep all night?”
“I can’t sleep! Did you know what happened last night?”
“I know a part of it.” William nodded. “I heard that Azalea was going to trick you, but she got tricked by others instead, right?”
“Yes, my mom and Azalea worked together to scheme against me, but someone had set up a trap for Azalea first. Azalea was humiliated last night and messed up with my mom. Later in the middle of the night, my mom told me that everything was planned by Abbie.”
