Chapter 206
The car stopped after traveling for about 40 minutes.
Seeing that Valeria opened her eyes, William's eyes brighten up and asked, "You're awake?"
"Oh, I didn't realize that I fell asleep.You should have woken me up," Valeria said embarrassedly.
"I just wanted you to rest more."
"Why did your dad call you back? Was it something urgent?"
"Don't worry, it's just a mess caused by Burtos family" William simply answered.
"Were you scolded?"
Valeria looked at him worriedly.
"Not really, it was just some nagging.I'm fine."
"Are you sure?" Valeria doubtfully asked.
"Yes, I am.Alright, let's just forget about this and head in"
William held her hand and they entered the villa.
They both needed to wash up after a long day, so they headed to the bathroom.
Seeing such an attractive lady like Valeria, William would never be able to resist himself and it led to a steamy make-out session in the shower.
William carried Valeria out of the bathroom afterward.
His eyes were filled with love while he asked, "Babe, shall we go somewhere tomorrow?"
"Where to?" Valeria asked calmly . Content © copyrighted by NôvelDrama.Org.
"Australia!"
"We're travelling abroad? What's the occasion?"
"My dad is sending me there to deal with some business issues, but it would be too hard on me to leave you here.Would you want to come with me?"
He begged her.
"l cant, I have to work on the next day," Valeria refused.
"Forget about work, I'll pay you your wage" William insisted.
"It's not about the money.I, myself, wanted to work.Besides, I've already promised them.I should be responsible for my own words, don't you think so?"
"Who did you promise?" William was unhappy.
He knew clearly that Valeria was working at Hardy's office.
Did Valeria say no because of Hardy? He frowned and stared at her at the thought of that.
He didn't want his girl to have anything to do with other men.
"My dad, of course.Who else did you think I made a promise to?"
"So it isn't Hardy?"
"What are you thinking? I have nothing to do with him" Valeria explained.
"If you have nothing to do with him, why would he offer your dad a billion-dollar-business project? Hardy is much more capable than a dandy like me, isn't he?"
"I don't know about my dad, but I have never thought about you in that way.For me, you are the best.
As long as you stay away from other girls, it doesn't matter if you aren't as good as him, I still like you."
"Really?"
"Of course.Why don't you believe me when I have already given my everything to you?"
Valeria punched William's chest angrily.
Was William jealous of her and Hardy? Although she was furious about how William didn't believe her, she was secretly happy for a second.
After hitting William a few times, she kisses him and said, "William, you're the only one I could ever ask for!"
William grinned broadly after hearing her words, "Since I'm your only one, you should listen to me.Ditch your work and go to Australia with me.I promise I'll let you do whatever you want after we return"
"You are ridiculous! Fine then, I'll talk to my dad" Valeria compromised.
"Tell your dad right now.I'll ask someone to book two tickets and well leave tomorrow" William responded immediately.
"What if my dad says no?" Valeria glared at him.
William replied confidently, "Don't worry, your dad will agree!"
"How can you be so sure?"
Valeria suspected that William was hiding something from her.
"Well, just trust me and talk to your dad."
Valeria called Ronald and when it reached him, Ronald said furiously, "I was just about to call you.Come back immediately, we need to talk."
"Can't we just talk over the phone?"
"No, come back right now! Otherwise, I'll come to you!"
Hearing Ronald's tone, Valeria was forced to obey, no matter what.
She hung up the phone and said, "My dad asked me to head back home.I guess it's something about Ashley.I have to go back now and have a look."
"Just ignore him.You're just getting lectured if you go back."
"No, I have to see what's going on.Plus, I did nothing wrong.My dad would think I'm hiding something if I don't go back."
"Alright then, I'll send you back.Let's see what your father wants and you can tell him about our plan to Australia as well.Remember, just walk away if he starts scolding you."
William dropped her off, and he waited for her in his car.
Valeria then entered the villa alone.
Ronald was on a phone call in the living area.
"Who did this? What's going on?"
He glared at Valeria after she entered the house and he continued with his phone call.
"Hardy, I'm sure there's another way to deal with this.I'm pretty close with Carlos Beau.Shall I ask him about this?"
No one knew what was Hardy's response but Ronald hung up his phone madly.
He threw the phone on the coffee table and then looked at Valeria, "What's wrong with you? Why did you allow William to do that to Ashley?"
"What did Ashley tell you?" Valeria asked after she sat down.
"Whatever she said doesn't matter.I'll ask you, what's with you and William? Hardy invited you to the party but now you're with William.What's are you thinking?"
Ronald was cold with his words and said, "William is ignorant and incompetent.He has nothing other than a good-looking face.Why does it have to be him? Are you out of your mind?"
"Everyone has their own preference! Why can't I be with William?"
"How could you!"
Ronald said furiously, "I don't care who you like to be with, just don’t get in my way, you'll regret otherwise."
"In what sense I have interrupted your affairs?" Valeria asked.
"About being business partners.Hardy just called to inform me that the project is canceled.This is not a coincidence! It must be because of something between you and William which made Hardy pulled out."
Ronald said fiercely, "Go and apologize to Hardy now! Explain to him and have him reconsider again."
"I think I can't, sorry."
"What are you talking about? Do you know how important this project is? A billion dollars’ worth! You must talk to him."
"I'm not doing that! Isn't that ridiculous? How does this have anything to do with me?" Valeria sneered.
"Besides, even if it's because of me, I'm not meeting him.Are you going to send me to some old men if they want to partner with you? "Is Hardy an old man? He's young and capable.Are you blind to not appreciate how good he is?"
Ronald was outraged, and he threw the cup in front of him onto the ground.
"Yes, I can't see his kindness! So what? I'm telling you, I'll never meet up with him!" Valeria argued.
Why would Valeria ever obey Ronald with such an unpleasant suggestion?
"I'm asking you the last time.Are you going or not?" Ronald said fiercely.
