Marrying
Chapter 324
Matthew felt that it was a waste to say another word. He directly typed something and sent it to his secretary.
Just as the secretary received the order and eagerly drove to buy the cake, he received a new instruction from Angel. She wanted a new dress, a new bag, topânotch toiletries, and so on.
Half an hour later, âMiss Santos, Mr. Grant asked me to send this to you. The secretary was already panting from exhaustion, and his body was filled with shopping bags of various sizes.
However, Angel was not very happy. She was thinking that Matthew would personally deliver the items to her and let Valerie see with her own eyes how well Matthew treated her. When that time came, Matthewâs identity would be exposed, and Valerie would naturally quit this relationship.
Therefore, when she saw that it was the secretary, a trace of impatience flashed across her eyes. However, she did not expect to achieve her goal so quickly. Thanks. Just put them on the table.â
âSigh!â The secretary was extremely tired as he piled up the bags on the table.
Valerie was not curious about these things. She noticed that the secretary looked a little familiar. âHave we met somewhere before?â
She remembered that he was the one who brought Melinda into Kranson City Officialâs livestream Last time.
When the secretary saw her, his heart trembled. He never expected to see Valerie there. Matthew didnât tell him about that.
Afraid of exposing anything, the secretary turned around and put on a smile. âMiss Warren, itâs me. Im Mr. Grantâs colleague⦠By the way, I still have something to do next. Iâll leave first
Valerie wanted to thank him, but the other party ran off as soon as he finished speaking. He was so fast that it was as if there was a him
was a tiger c
chasing after
Angelâs gaze shifted. She immediately understood what was going on.
Obviously, Matthew did not know that Angel had been transferred to the same ward as Valerie, so he sent a secretary who had met Valerie before. Unexpectedly, he almost exposed his identity.
From the looks of it, Matthew had kept his identity a secret from Valerie. Angel felt that he did this because he hated Valerie. The corners of Angelâs mouth slowly curled up. Her expression was unexplainable as she had an idea in her heart.
She casually picked up the dress and glanced at it. She gestured at her body and said with a smile, âValerie. Thereâs no mirror here. Help me take a
look. Does this dress fit?â
Although Angel was not tall, she had a good figure. Coupled with the fact that she was very thin, one could tell that she was very beautiful with just a few gestures.
Valerie clapped sincerely, âItâs beautiful. It suits your skin very well.â
Angel said, âBut I donât really like this color. Why donât I give it to you?â
Valerie smiled and said, âThank you for your kindness, but this dress is very expensive, right? I donât deserve it. Thereâs no need.â
âYou donât have to be so polite. I donât like this dress, so I wonât wear it in the future. Itâs a waste to leave it here. As for you, this dress should be good for you.â As she spoke, Angel glanced at the clothes stacked on the bed and slowly said, âI heard that youâre already married. Your husband is really mean. He doesnât even want to buy you a beautiful dressâ¦.
Valerie was surprised. Then, she shook her head. âMy husband treats me quite well, but I donât have much need for dresses. I usually wear professional clothes and rarely wear my own clothes, so jeans and sweaters are enough.â
On the other hand, the dress that Angel wanted to give her was beautiful, but it was too gorgeous. She did not need to wear it on any occasion
However, Angel said, âValerie, we women canât think that way. Let me remind you that women have to treat themselves better. If you donât spend his money, he might spend money on other womenâ
Perhaps it was Valerieâs imagination, but Angelâs words seemed to imply something. Valerie frowned.
Angel had been observing Valerieâs expression. When she noticed that Valerieâs expression had darkened, she thought that Valerie had finally realized that something was wrong. She was secretly delighted. Angel thought, Thatâs right, your husband is unwilling to spend money on you, but heâs willing to pay for me!
Unexpectedly, Valerie suddenly looked at her seriously âAngel, since you said that you treat me as a friend, Iâll say a few words from the perspective of a friend..
Angel was confused.
âI think youâre wrong. Love isnât the only thing in life, so you shouldnât use whether a man is willing to spend money for you as evidence of whether he loves you or not. Of course, itâs a good thing that a man is willing to spend money on you. If he isnât willing to spend money for you, we should spend our own money and please ourselves! Men are just seasonings for life, not necessities, âValerie said very seriously.
If Katherine hadnât told her those things, she would have been happy for Angel when she saw Angel happy because of the gift. But now, she only felt that Angel was too dependent on that man. Once she became humble for love, she would easily be led by the nose and be hurt. Katherine was an example,
Valerie thought. The three sisters of the Santos family are so similar. They are all very easy to fool in a romantic relationship
When Valerie thought of this, she sighed in disappointment.
Angel, who was sitting opposite her, was stunned. âNo.
Her original intention was to let Valerie know that Matthew did not care about Valerie and was not even willing to spend money on Valerie. She did not expect Valerie to educate her instead and even look at her sympathetically.
She thought. Are you kidding me? I donât need anyoneâs sympathy
However, Angel could not tear off her mask, so she gritted her teeth and admitted, âOkay⦠Thank you, Valerie.
Valerie thought that Angel had listened to her and heaved a sigh of relief. âYouâre welcome. But then again, face is really unbelievable. I didnât expect that we would become friends because of a car accident. I hope you have a great relationship with your crush in the future.
Angelâs face stiffened. She also found it unbelievable. How she wished she could kill Valerie in this car accident. Then, there wouldnât be so much trouble.
She thought, âIs this woman mocking me? What does she mean by wishing me a great relationship with my crush? Does she think that I am destined to fail
