Chapter2
No wonder Wendell wanted her to move out tonight. Could it be that there was a new person who was eager to move in?
Haha, when she thought about how she was still upset about such a man, she wanted to slap herself to death!
Odelia walked up to Valerie with a haughty look on her face, and her words were very arrogant and harsh.
"Are you Valerie? Have you not left yet?"
"Wendell has already driven you away, but you are still dawdling and refusing to move. How shameless!"
Valerie turned a deaf ear to her provocation and continued to pack her luggage that was scattered all over the floor.
"Hey, are you deaf? Can't you hear me talking to you?"
"Sorry, I didn't hear you."
Valerie finally raised her head, her expression calm: "I only heard a dog barking!"
"You dare to call me a dog!"
"I didn't, whoever agrees is the one."
After that, she dragged her suitcase and tilted her head towards Odelia who was blocking her way: "Please make way, a good dog doesn't block the road."
"You!"
Odelia stomped her feet in anger, her face flushed and turned pale.
Isn't Mrs Joule of the legendary Joule Family a well-known punching bag? How come she is so sharp-tongued?
Upon seeing this, the servants rushed forward to flatter her.
"Ms Walkley, calm down. It's not worth it to get sick over a divorced wife!
""From now on, you are the mistress of this villa. This woman is nothing..."
"We have tidied up your room according to Mr Joule's instructions. I'll take you to see it now!"
Odelia was so happy that she didn't bother to pay attention to Valerie anymore and followed the servants into the villa.
In the biting cold wind, Valerie was the only one left.
She looked at this tall and magnificent building with mixed feelings in her heart.
Four years of her life were spent here, but she didn't expect to end up in such a miserable ending. It was really ironic.
"Goodbye, Joule Family! "
Taking a deep breath, Valerie left without looking back.
That night, she rented a one-bedroom apartment in the city center.
The room was not big, but she finally settled down.
Suddenly she felt very relaxed. Without the constraints of the identity of "Mrs Joule", she could freely do what she wanted.
Valerie took out her mobile phone and dialed the number that she had blocked for four years.
"Boss, it's been four years, you finally remembered me!"
Cornell Waters, one of the four great lords of Pearson City, has always been unruly. At this moment, he looked like a little brother on the other end of the phone, and his voice was very excited.
"I heard that you are getting a divorce. Congratulations. Wendell, that icy and expressionless guy, should have been kicked out long ago!"
"You don't know, during the years when you were hiding in the Joule Family as a bullied young wife, your legends were everywhere in the world. If those old men knew that you were the top-level boss they wanted to dig out even if they dug through the earth, they would probably be shocked! "
"So, are you going to do something big this time, I..."
"Stop it!"
Valerie's head hurt because of the noise, and she wanted to block this boastful guy again.
"I promised my grandfather that I would never get involved in the circle again. If you really think of me as your boss, you must keep this secret for me."
Admittedly, her "past"was wonderful, but it was already "past", and she didn't want to talk about it.
"This time I called you to ask you to help me investigate something..."
After Valerie finished communicating with Cornell, she hung up the phone.
At the same time, a text message came in, and it was from Wendell!
Her heartbeat accelerated instantly.
"Tomorrow at nine o'clock, City Hall."
Seven simple words, without any emotion, as if one more word was a gift.
The rippling heart lake returned to calm.
Haha, she knew that she shouldn't have any expectations of this man.
"Okay."
Valerie replied immediately, also without any emotion, that was so straightforward.
