Valerie glared at him, confused. She was still lying on his chest while he was on the ground. His grip became firmer, as if she were going to run away if he let her go.“Sir, you're drunk. I think you need to go to bed.” Valerie managed to say.President Ethan coughed a little and snapped. “I'm not drunk, I know what I'm saying and what I'm saying is that you just can't turn Nicole down, can you? Is it because he's your lover? Huh?”“Lover?” Valerie blinked her eyes rapidly.“Are you going to deny it? Do you know how I feel each time I see you holding on to him like he was your savior? Oh, you won't know, right?” Ethan shook his head, and struggled up.However, Valerie was able to release herself from his grip. She still couldn't wrap her head around what the President meant. Does he think she's having an affair with Nicole? But that's not true! Even if it is, what does it have to do with him?Ethan staggered towards the sitting room, and Valerie aided him to sit on a couch. After he
The confrontation was getting heated up, and Rebecca couldn't help but pace around. The thought that she was losing her man to a peasant like Valerie made her go nuts.“What exactly did Ethan see in her? She's not classy, she's not sophisticated. What more does he want from such a disgusting maid?”Turning to Valerie, Rebecca yelled. “You better start talking. Both of you should explain to me what this is all about.”Still unsettled, Rebecca sat restlessly on the couch on the left, glaring hard at Valerie, who stood in front of her. Ethan, on the other hand, was also seated but in an armchair. “Why are you both quiet? I need an explanation of what I just saw a few minutes ago, and I need an explanation quick.” Rebecca spoke up with tears in the trace of her voice.Valerie gulped hard. Her heart raced faster as she scratched her head. “It's… it's not what you think, ma'am.” “Shut the f*** up, shameless tramp! I've always known that you were nothing but a h·er, but I underestimated ho
“Ethan?” Rebecca scoffed in shock.Ignoring her, Ethan helped Valerie up. He didn't even bother to spare a glance at her. “Can you walk on your own, Valerie?”“Uhm… I'll try, sir” Valerie struggled up, but Ethan quickly carried her bridal style and headed upstairs.Shocked and gobsmacked, Rebecca, who was still sitting on the ground, gasped. That was the height of it. Right in her presence, her so-called boyfriend carried the maid bridal style. Worst still, he slapped her hard on the face because of her.The servants rushed to Rebecca, and helped her up. She groaned in pain. “Let… let go of me, silly things!” She slapped their hands off as she got up.Fuming with anger, she grabbed her purse. Her heart was heavy, and for the first time in her life, she was not just embarrassed, she was humiliated in the presence of the servants. All she wanted was to hide her face.Without hesitation, she ran out of the mansion, heading straight to her car. She pressed the key, and was about to hop in
“I said, where is the freaking nanny who made my son lay his hands on Rebecca. Get down here with your packed luggage because you're leaving the mansion today.”Fear gripped Valerie. The voice alone was enough to terrify anyone. Grabbing the duvet, she yanked it off her body.“Sir, please, I don't want to lose my job” She cried helplessly.Ethan smiled at her calm, and reassured her. “You don't have anything to worry about. I guarantee you that you still have your job.”Even with the reassurance, Valerie was still scared. How would she face the mother of the President? Should she have allowed Rebecca to throw her out in the first place?Reluctantly, President Ethan turned to her and saw how scared she looked. “I know you are worried, but you have nothing to worry about because I'm going downstairs to talk to my mother.”Valerie nodded her head, and Ethan walked out of the room. As soon as he left, Valerie got down from the bed. Her ankle was twisted, so walking was so difficult for he
“Mom?”Lady Davison scoffed. “Are you going to choose right now or not?”President Ethan turned his gaze at Valerie who was in tears, kneeling in front of his mother even though her ankle was twisted, and the pain was still there.Rebecca smiled within herself. She knows how much Ethan loves his mother, and that they're so close to each other.“He'll have no choice than to give in to his mother's desires.”“Aunt, I think I've lost a lot of blood. I just need to go to the hospital.” Rebecca continued her charade.Ethan glared at her. He felt like slapping her hard across the face. How could she lie to his face in this manner? He was so sure that he didn't lay his hands on her except for the slap, which was as a result of how Rebecca was treating Valerie. “This is not right, Mom. How can you make me choose between you and Miss Watson.”“Is it too difficult for you to choose, Ethan? I am your mother, your birth mother. Are you going to choose that woman over me?” Lady Davison arched her
Blood oozed out of Audrey's nostrils and mouth. Valerie gave out a loud scream as her hands were soiled with the blood. “Help! Please take her to the hospital.” Valerie cried out helplessly.Without hesitation, the President quickly carried Audrey and rushed out of the house. Valerie, even though she was still suffering from the twisted ankle, she managed to limp outside the mansion.Shocked, Lady Davison rushed into the car, and it drove off with her and Audrey. Rebecca walked out of the house, fuming furiously. Things were no longer going as she planned. Valerie was supposed to be out of the mansion already, and now Audrey has ruined her plans.Valerie limped to Audrey's bus driver with tears in her eyes. “Please… please take me to the hospital. I need to be there.”“Where do you think you're going, Valerie?” Rebecca gritted her teeth in annoyance.Turning to her, Valerie sniffed. “I want to go to the hospital. Audrey… She's bleeding. I can't be here knowing fully well that she's n
Rebecca drove into the hospital premises, and pulled over in the garage. She couldn't help but feel disgusted as she approached the entrance.“Do I really have to displease myself, all because of that little witch? It's all her fault that I'm here.” Rebecca continued mumbling. She got into the hospital, and walked straight to the counter, where she met two nurses who were busy at their desks.She cleared her throat to get their attention, and they raised their heads and greeted cheerfully. Ignoring their greetings, Rebecca started. “I'm here to see someone. Her name is Audrey Davison, she was brought to this hospital a few minutes ago.”The first nurse flipped the pages of the file she was holding before replying. “May I know who you are to her, ma'am?”“Are you stupid? How dare you answer my question with a question?” Rebecca flared up.The surprised nurse gulped hard. She felt rather humiliated by the way Rebecca spoke to her. “Uhm… it's the rules, ma'am. I can't provide you any in
“Curse you!”President Ethan smiled mischievously. “You're hungry, I heard that from your stomach.”Valerie bit her lower lip and bowed her head in shame. “I'm… I'm sorry, sir.”“You don't always have to apologize when you did nothing wrong. Don't worry, I'll get you something from the cafeteria. Meanwhile, I'll get a nurse to treat your twisted ankle.” President Ethan replied before walking out of the door.Embarrassed, Valerie hit her stomach softly. “You won't cease to disgrace me, will you?”A few minutes later, a nurse walked in. The nurse sat right beside Valerie as she applied some ointment on her twisted ankle. “You're very lucky to have such a caring husband, ma'am.” The nurse broke the silence after a few minutes.Valerie's eyes squinted, and she gulped rather harder. “Husband?”“Yes, ma'am.” She responded.With a snort, Valerie turned to her. “He's… he's not my husband.”Confused, the nurse shook her head without saying a word. She was probably trying to wrap her head arou
