She said as she slowly closed her eyes and fell asleep.
Looking at his wife’s sleeping face, worry flickered in Jason’s deep peach blossom eyes.
He wondered how Grace would feel if she found out Valda Theller had heard what Brian said after hurrying to the hospital for her that day. He would protect her and not upset her. If he needed to lie to her, he and Brian could continue the lies together.
After leaving the hospital, Brian drove the car while Valda Theller sat in the front passenger seat.
The car was silent. Valda Theller looked down at her flat belly. ‘Is there a little human life in here?”
Ever since she discovered she might be pregnant, she had resisted pregnancy for fear of having a baby and getting even more involved with Brian.
However, after hearing Grace’s various interesting stories about her children, she thought it would be good to have a child accompany her. Maybe she would feel less lonely and happier.
“What’s on your mind?” Brian’s voice broke the silence in the car.
She said, “Nothing’s on my mind. Did you and Mr. Reed talk after going out?”
“He just mentioned Grace. He doesn’t want Grace to be upset over us. I also told him I won’t let Grace learn abou what happened that day.”
Valda Theller said, “Okay. As long as we don’t give ourselves away in front of Grace, she probably won’t find out.”
“Do you think we won’t give ourselves away?” he asked.
“It won’t be for long. When Grace recovers, we’ll make something up and tell her we had an amicable breakup,” she said.
“The doctor said Grace requires long-term rehabilitation.” “Then… let’s pretend for a little while longer. I’m not looking for a boyfriend right now… anyway,” she said after pondering.
Gifts My Gorgeous M He clenched his jaw and felt his teeth ache. “Yeah, she’s broken up with me. She has every right to find a new boyfriend, but… the thought of her smiling at another man, and kissing and hugging him makes me uncomfortable. Brian could not help feeling irritated.
“You can’t find one! Do you think you can find another man like me to love when you love me so much?” he said.
Valda Theller retorted with a slightly red face, “You… You’re too confident. Who are you to say I can’t find one? I love you now, but I can slowly get over you. Besides, I don’t need to find a man like you in the future. I just need to find an ordinary man with a good personality who treats me well! I’ll give him all my heart, and he’ll do the same!”
It was more like she was telling herself that.
“Yes, I can move on from him. I can do it!
However, her words seemed to have provoked him as he turned the steering wheel sharply, slammed on the brakes, and pulled over at the roadside.
She was thrown forward and would have hit her head on the windshield if she had not worn a seat belt.
However, before she knew it, he had unbuckled his seatbelt and leaned toward her. His fingers grabbed her jaw as his lips pressed heavily on hers.
“Umm…” She pressed her lips together tightly and tried to push him away.
However, he was so firm that she could not move him at all.
They kissed, and the two seemed to be competing on who was more patient.
The familiar scent and temperature seemed to bewitch her. Her willpower and resistance seemed to soften gradually.
His kiss continued to deepen. After a long time, he finally stopped the kiss. “Can you really fall for someone because he has a good character and treats you well? Valda, you love me. There’s no way you’ll fall for anyone else!”
Valda Theller stared at the handsome face in front of her. He was elegant and mature. He was also a rich heir. Few women could resist him when his phoenix eyes gazed at them.
However… “Everyone loves differently. Some people might only love one person in their life and can’t change it, just like how you love Grace. No matter how hard you try to change, it’ll end up in vain.
Some people might love like me, and they can move on with time. Just like how I liked Raymond Bowman back in university, but I don’t have any feelings for him now,” she said bitterly.
Brian’s expression began to turn ghastly.
She took a deep breath. “So I can get over you, Brian.”
“You could get over Raymond Bowman because you didn’t have deep feelings for him! Valda, you can’t let go of your feelings for me!” he said She froze. She felt embarrassed for a moment as if Brian was right.
“What about you? Your feelings for Grace are deep. Can you get over her?” Valda Theller asked in reply.
He pressed his thin lips together for a long while before saying, “I’ll get over her if you give me enough time.”
She said, “But I can’t afford it. You can say that I’m afraid of giving all the time I have and finding out ultimately that it’s all for nothing. I’ll really be devastated if that happens!”
She gazed deeply at him. “Brian, maybe what you need is someone else to fall in love with, but it won’t be me.”
Gifts At this moment, Brian Hart’s phone suddenly rang, and he glanced at the caller ID, furrowing his brows slightly.
“What’s wrong? Whose call is it?” Patrick Weiss asked curiously.
“It’s my father’s call. He wants me to come back for a visit. It seems that it’s for the same reason as you coming to find me today,” Brian Hart replied nonchalantly.
“It seems that The Cross Family has come to beg at your doorstep,” Patrick Weiss remarked, indicating that The Cross Family is really struggling now.
When Brian Hart returned to the Hart Mansion, he saw his parents sitting on the sofa in the living room waiting for him.
“What’s going on with The Cross Family? I heard that you stopped their loan funding from the bank,”
Mr. Hart asked his son.
“Yes, I cut off The Cross Family’s funding.” Brian Hart admitted generously.
“What are you trying to do? Are you trying to take revenge on The Cross Family?” Mr. Hart was puzzled. “Today, even the old Mr. Cross came to me and asked you to let The Cross Family go. If The Cross Family really did something wrong, they are willing to make up for it.” “Make up for it?” Brian Hart sneered. How could The Cross Family make up for it? The suffering and pain that Valda Theller had endured, “Unless time can be turned back, they can’t make up for anything!”
Mr. Hart sighed, “The old Mr. Cross said that Phoebe offended you and sent someone to play a prank on your girlfriend. It’s just a small matter. You don’t have to make it so big. If you work so hard to bring down The Cross Family, it won’t benefit the Hart family much even if they really fall.”
Mr. Hart was speaking from a business perspective.
“What Phoebe Cross did to Valda Theller is a big deal to me,” Brian Hart said seriously.
“But it’s just a woman,” Mr. Hart frowned.
“But this woman is important to me! Dad, anyone who hurts Valda Theller, I will make them pay the price.” Even himself.
Yes, he also hurt Valda Theller, so he is now paying the price.
“You-“Mr. Hart looked at his son in surprise. It was clear that his son’s words were not just empty talk.
Madam Hart, on the other hand, was overjoyed. If her son really likes this girlfriend so much, it means that he has let go of Grace and will not be obsessed with her anymore. This means that they have a chance to have grandchildren.
“Alright, alright. Since Brian Hart has said so, let’s not bother about how he does it. After all, you have handed over all the company’s affairs to your son. Why bother about so much?” Madam Hart said, already considering Valda Theller as her future daughter-in-law. “When will Brian Hart bring Valda Theller back so that we can meet her? We have only heard of her but never met her.”
They had always heard of Valda Theller but had never met her in person. Although their son had mentioned that he was dating her with the intention of marriage, they were still doubtful as they had not seen her yet. They thought it was just a passing fancy or there might be some other reason. However, now it seemed that their son was very serious about this woman.
But Brian Hart’s maction was not as joyful as his mother’s. He simply lowered his eyebrows and said, “Let’s talk about it later.”
“When later? When will that be?” Madam Hart asked anxiously “Mom, I have something to do. I have to go now. I just want to tell you that I will handle The Cross Family’s affairs in my own way. No one can plead for them,” Brian Hart said and left the house.
Mr. Hart and Madam Hart looked at each other in confusion. It seemed that Mr. Hart could not do anything about The Cross Family’s affairs. After all, compared to The Cross Family’s daughter, their future daughter-in-law was more important.
After leaving the Hart Mansion, Brian Hart returned to his villa. Valda Theller had already gone to bed, and one of the two bodyguards was guarding the door.
“You can rest now,” Brian Hart said to the bodyguard. “Yes, sir,” the bodyguard stepped back, and Brian Hart pushed open the door and walked into the room.
She was lying on the bed, sleeping quietly. The moonlight shone through the window, falling on her face, reflecting her peaceful face, which was so beautiful.
“Valda Theller, what do you want me to do so that you can stay with me again?” he murmured, but she was asleep and could not give him an answer.
When Valda Theller woke up, she freshened up and changed her clothes. However, when she walked out of the bedroom, she did not see any bodyguards at the door.
In the past few days, whenever she left the bedroom, the two bodyguards would always follow her closely.
As she walked downstairs, she saw Brian Hart waiting for her. “You’re up, let’s have breakfast together,” he said.
“Okay,” Valda Theller replied, looking around and still not seeing the bodyguards.
