After hearing Valeria’s words, Leonard’s face stiffened. Meanwhile, the assistant next to him almost spat out a mouthful of tea.
He had been working for Leonard for so long, but no one had dared to say such things about Leonard. Well, Leonard had such an explosive temper, so Valeria would probably get into trouble today.
However, this country was part of William’s territory. Hence, it would be terrible if Leonard became furious and did something that they get them into trouble.
The assistant felt that it was necessary to dissuade Leonard from doing anything. Furthermore, he was ready to stop the fight that would happen, but Leonard was not angry. He stared at Valeria for a few seconds, and then he picked up the teacup before taking a sip of the tea. After that, he looked down at the phone as if nothing had happened.
On the other hand, the assistant looked at Leonard in surprise. Was this the same Leonard he knew?
Perhaps, did Leonard not hear what Valeria said at all?
At this thought, the assistant guessed that Leonard must have not heard what Valeria said. Otherwise, he would not have let it go so easily.
Valeria was originally in a good mood. However, when he saw Leonard, who looked like William, her mood had suddenly changed. She didn’t feel like staying here any longer, so she left with Anna.
While they were out of the door, Anna could not help but scold Leonard by saying, “Valeria, who is that man? He really looks like my brother-in-law, like a twin. Valeria, does my brother-in-law have a twin brother or another sibling?”
“Anna, my grandma passed away when she gave birth to my husband. Hence, she was only pregnant with him, so it’s impossible for her to have twins.”
“Well, could it be another type of relationship? What if your grandpa actually has another lover…”
Well, Anna really didn’t know how to watch her words. Hence, Valeria frowned and said, “My father-in-law is not that kind of person. He has gotten married once, but he only got together with my grandma after his previous wife died. Furthermore, he has watched over her grave after she passed away for so many years. Do you think someone like him will have an illegitimate son?”
“Is that so? Then why do they look so familiar?”
However, Valeria replied unhappily, “How do they look alike? That man looks so much older than my husband!”
“Valeria, could it be that he has gone through some sort of plastic surgery? After all, I glanced at him briefly. His looks, his body stature, and the way he dresses are all similar to William! In fact, the watch that he’s wearing is expensive too, and I saw my brother-in-law wearing the same watch previously.”
Valeria felt even more uncomfortable when Anna mentioned this. She was shocked when she first saw Leonard. Then, she realized that something was wrong.
Leonard reminded her of William. Hence, Valeria felt unsettled when she began to see traces of her husband on another man.
When she saw the man’s smiling face, she felt sick, so she said those words loudly without hesitation.
Although she didn’t think that man was William’s brother, she couldn’t figure this current situation out.
Hence, she had to visit William and tell him about it.
On the other hand, Leonard left with his assistant after Valeria and Anna left.
Once they were back in the car parked outside, the assistant started the car. Meanwhile, Leonard leaned on the seat with an upset expression on his face.
While the car made its way through the busy traffic, Leonard didn’t say anything, so the car was quiet.
When they were about to arrive at Wolf Group, Leonard suddenly said, “I’m older than her husband. My figure is not as good as her husband’s, and I’m even more wretched than him! However, I’m only a few years older than William. Am I really that old? Besides, I’ve been training every day. When people see my eight pack of muscles, who else would dare to say that I don’t have a good body? Urgh! Do I really look that wretched?”
The assistant immediately answered the way Leonard wanted when he faced the latter’s continuous questions. “Mr. Floyd, you look almost the same as William, and your body is better than him too! How could anyone think that you’re a wretched man? That’s impossible! If someone like you was a wretched man, every other man in the world would be worse!”
However, Leonard was not satisfied with his assistant’s words. Why would Valeria say such things to him if he was this excellent?
He always thought that he would a surprised expression in Valeria’s gaze, but he didn’t expect to see disgust instead.
This hurt Leonard too much!
He was originally in a good mood, but now he was in an extremely bad mood.
When he returned to the hotel, he had a gloomy expression on his face. In fact, his mind was filled with Valeria’s cold tone and her hurtful words.
The atmosphere in the room immediately became unsettling because Leonard was unhappy. In fact, his assistant didn’t dare to breathe loudly as well.
On the other hand, in the hospital, Meadow and a few servants reluctantly entered Azalea’s ward.
Azalea sat on the bed with a haggard look. When she saw Meadow coming in, her eyes lit up, and she took the initiative to greet her by saying, “Meadow!”
Meanwhile, Meadow motioned for the servants to put the things they brought on the bedside table. She held back her disgust and asked, “Are you feeling better?”
“I feel much better. However, I can’t move around freely because of my legs.” Francis had told Azalea that Meadow would come to the hospital to bring her back to the Davis family. Initially, Azalea didn’t believe it, but she was delighted when she saw that Meadow had really arrived. Thus, she asked shamelessly, “Aunt Meadow, are you here to bring me back?”
“Do you want to go back? You are now one of the daughters of the Gurney family. Previously, you had lived a good life with good food while staying with the Gurney family. What if you can adapt to new habits after coming into the Davis family?” Meadow commented, but there was a hidden meaning behind her words.
“Meadow, based on what you said, even though I am a daughter of the Gurney family, I will belong to another family once I get married, right? So it won’t be convenient for me to return to the Gurney family.”
“Hah! That only applies to a married woman, are you even one of them?” Meadow sneered and didn’t bother hiding her hatred. “Michael still hasn’t shown any signs of marrying you, right?”
However, Azalea didn’t feel embarrassed at all. “Michael didn’t say that he wanted to marry me, but the child in my belly belongs to him, doesn’t it? Hence, I need to return to the Davis family for the sake of their baby inside my stomach, right?”
“Haha, alright, I guess it’s possible for you to go back. However, I’m warning you now. You need to follow the rules a little. If you continue to disgust my father just like what you did previously, I will chase you out of the house without hesitation.”
Well, Meadow had already said this much, so it was obvious that she was bringing Azalea back home. After all, Azalea was already tired of staying in the hospital, so she nodded quickly and said, “I’ll listen to everything you say, Aunt Meadow. Shall we go back today?”
After hearing this, Meadow asked the servants to complete the discharge procedures. After that, Azalea secretly sent a message to Francis by saying, “Dad, Auntie Meadow brought some servants to bring me back home. Do you have anything that you want me to do?”
When Francis saw Azalea’s message, he immediately called Frederick in. “Send a few people to the hospital immediately. When Meadow picks up that b*tch, get someone to go up and take picture of her while interviewing her. After that, you can release the news immediately. I want to force Michael to marry her.”
After hearing that, Frederick did not say anything and nodded in agreement.
On the other hand, Azalea had sent a message and waited for a long time, but she never received a reply from Francis. Hence, was a little disappointed that Francis had completely lost trust in her.
After the servants had finished the discharge procedures, Azalea was pushed out of the ward.
When they walked to the parking lot, several reporters carrying cameras and microphones suddenly appeared. Then, they started taking pictures of them!
