Maliah quickly grabbed a piece of clothing and put it on before walking outside.
âWhat are you here for?â Maliah asked.
She looked displeased as she looked down at Valerie.
Valerie smiled lightly. âIâm here for you.â
âFor me? What do you want?â
âMaliah, have you forgotten? Your dad and I had a bet. You lost, and now you have to pay up. That pearl necklace belongs to me!â
Maliah was stunned. âThatâs it? Valerie, youâre really something. Coming all the way here just for a necklace? Is your family so poor that you need to come begging for it?â
âOf course. When dealing with people like you, I have to come in person. What if you ran off before I got here?
âI heard your winemaker has already run away. Birds of a feather flock together. I guess I should be quicker!
âThe trophy isnât just for taking. I have to post it online to show everyone that Iâm the winner. As for you, I wonder what the netizens will think when they see this! Youâd better come over quickly, or Iâll start a livestream. There are plenty of netizens waiting for you!â
Maliahâs face turned pale with anger. âItâs just a necklace. Whatâs so special about it? Just wait!â
She turned and went upstairs to retrieve the pearl necklace, throwing it at Valerie.
âHere you go. You really are persistent!â Maliah said.
She crossed her arms, clearly annoyed. Valerie picked up the necklace and glanced at it, finding it increasingly familiar.
She was sure she had seen this necklace before, but couldnât remember where. She decided to take it home and investigate further.
As Valerie was about to leave, she looked up and saw Maliahâs shirt, and was momentarily stunned.
The shirt was a manâs, and on Maliah, it looked oversized, barely covering her thighs.
She was wearing a manâs shirt, and so early in the morning. Was there a man in her room?
Given Maliahâs age, it was time for her to have a boyfriend, but bringing a man home was surprising. Valerieâs lips curled into a smile, but then she felt something was off.
The shirt looked oddly familiar. If she remembered correctly, it was a custom shirt with a unique button design, featuring a special pattern with an âXâ shape that was quite rare.
Seeing Valerie staring at her, Maliah was irritated. âAlright, youâve got the necklace. What are you still doing here? Get going! Such a nuisance!â
Valerie gave her a deep look, said nothing, and left. The more she thought about it, the more she found it strange.
She had seen that shirt before. When she was filming, she had been in close contact with Dale and remembered seeing him
wear it.
At that time, she found it quite special and even asked about it.

Daleâs shirt was custommade and unique in its own way. Valeriewas interested and considered having a similar one made for Matthew, but she eventually forgot due to being busy
Dale had mentioned that the buttons on the shirt were specially customized and could be embroidered with initials.
Additionally, the fabric had subtle patterns, and the custom version was one of a kind, with no duplicates. These were some of the unique features of their brand.
Valerie wondered if anyone else would have the same shirt. Was it possible that Maliahâs boyfriend was Dale?
But she hadnât heard about Katherine breaking up.
Valerieâs suspicion grew. She looked puzzled as she got into her car and drove away.
Once Valerie was gone, Maliah scoffed. âWhat a joke. Even Mrs. Grant has to pull these stunts!â
Maliah rolled her eyes and went back, planning to take a nap. But as soon as she entered, she was greeted with a bear hug.
Darling, youâre amazing!â Dale said.
Maliah initially wanted to refuse, but faced with such charm, she found herself unable to resist.
âStill, youâre incredible. You sent her away so quickly!â
âSheâs so shallow, coming all the way just to ask for things. If it werenât for her, I wouldnât have lost the competitionâ
Thinking about the competition made Maliah angry.
Dale said, âDonât be mad. Come here and give me a kiss!â
Dale embraced her, and they began rolling around on the bed.
Meanwhile, Valerie was already starting to have doubts.
