Richard nodded and immediately dialed a number, "They are at a night bar, come now!"
"Who are you calling?"
Upon hearing Richard's call, Abbie immediately questioned him.
"A friend of mine!"
‘A friend that needs our whereabouts? Oh no, I think I'm going to puke! Bro, keep an eye on Valeria! I
need to go to the washroom!"Abbie said and rushed to the washroom.
Richard shook his head and sat down to look at Valeria, who was sleeping on the seat.
A few minutes later, William rushed in.
"Why is she so drunk?"
"Who knows? You should get her into the car first.I'll be here waiting for Abbie."
William immediately carried Valerie up in bridal style and left.
Abbie vomited in the bathroom for a while and she staggered out.
When she came back to the table, she saw that Richard was alone.Valeria was gone.
She asked in horror, "Brother, where is Valeria?"
"She's in the car outside’ "Oh, then please hold on to me.I'm feel too dizzy."Abbie said as she leaned
on Richard.
Richard helped her out and asked, "Why did you bring Valeria here? And why did you guys drink so
much?"
"Do you know how upset she is? To have a father like that and she was getting bullied.The cherry on
top is her boyfriend is now a disappointment too!"
"Disappointment? What do you mean?"Richard asked her back.
"Bro, do you know that he is having an affair with Elizabeth ve "That's bullsh*t!"Richard snapped.
"I'm telling the truth.Valeria and I saw it with our own eyes .That d*rn j*rk said he was going to work, but
he went to the Howard Group.He and Elizabeth chatted outside.Do you know we feel when we saw
that scene?"
Abbie took a deep breath and continued, "That man must be working with Elizabeth.He must be here to
scam Valeria or something!"
As they were talking, they got out of the bar and saw the black Maybach quietly parking at the bar's
entrance.
Abbie rushed towards the car, "Bro, where's Valeria?"
"She's in the car’ Richard answered.Abbie thought it was Richard's car, so she opened the car
door.Then she saw William, who was sitting in the back.William was holding Valeria in his arms.She
was stunned for a moment.
"You're...here?"
When Abbie saw William clearly, she instantly got angry.
"D *mn you, how dare you show up here! I'll kill you!"
"Abbie Clark!"
Richard reached out his hand to stop her.
Abbie squeezed her way to the front of the car desperately .
"Don't stop me.I'm going to teach this stinky man a lesson and let him know the consequences of
bullying our Valeria"
"Abbie, he's my friend! He's not a j*rk or whatever you just called him!"
"Why are you making up stories for him? Why would you be friends with a disappointment?"
Abbie wouldn't believe it.
"He's from the Howard Family.William Howard!"
"What? So he's the douchebag who drinks and fools around all the time?"
Abbie was drunk and couldn't control herself.
"That's no different from a god*mn piece of sh*t! Gosh, how did Valeria end up with.."
Richard covered Abbie's mouth with his hand and said, "Abbie drank too much.Please forgive me."
"It's fine,’ William chuckled faintly.
"I will explain it to Abbie.You take Valeria with you first.She misunderstood that you have a relationship
with Elizabeth.I think you should explain it to her"
"Alright! It's okay, you can go!"Richard pulled Abbie into the car.
Abbie was still angry.
"Brother, how can you do this? Knowing what kind of person William is, you still allowed him to be with
Valeria.How can you do this to my best friend?"
"Abbie, William isn't that despicable!"
Richard explained, "He's a good man.He's not as bad as the rumors said"
"What's not true about those rumors? Is it not true that he gambles or sleeps around?"Abbie
questioned.
"D*mn it! You've gone too far.I'm telling you, although you are my brother, I hate it when men fool
around with women like toys! Valeria is my best friend, she is like a sister to me.How can I rest assured
when her boyfriend is a playboy?"
"It's none of my business that Valeria likes him.By the time I find out, he and Valeria were already
together.Besides, William is loyal to Valeria.Can you stay out of it, please?"
"I'm so pissed right now! If Valeria knows about William's romantic affairs, she would definitely be
pissed off!"
"If Valeria can accept him now, can't she accept that he is William from the Howard Family?"
Abbie was stunned by his question.She said sulkily, "Let's talk about this when Valeria wakes up.I'll be
the first one to support her if she doesn't like William anymore.’
In the Howard family, Mason had been feeling uneasy ever since he left the hospital.
Charles and Elizabeth hadn't come back yet.
He couldn't help but felt a little nervous when Elizabeth didn't answer his call.Elizabeth finally came
back at around 12, she looked gloomy.
When she came in, she sat on the sofa wearily.
Mason took the initiative to pour a glass of water for Elizabeth and said, "Aunty, drink some water."
Elizabeth took a sip of water and sighed.
"Mason, you're in big trouble this time."
"Is it because of William?"Mason guessed.
"Yes, my dad is not happy that you messed William Howard.Your uncle is also being lectured.The old
man said that your uncle was found to have abused his power and he wanted someone to investigate
him.Your uncle is now busy covering up the loopholes in the company”
"That's not fair! I didn't even say anything.Besides, how would I know that he's William Howard? What
does he want? Isn't it enough that I was punched by William?"
Mason was angry.
"I have no choice.My dad has always been biased.William Howard is the child of the woman whom he
loved most.We are just outsiders"
Elizabeth rubbed her forehead and suddenly remembered the issue of Ashley Evans, "Is the problem
with Ashely solved?"
"It's settled.I was going to let her abort, but I didn't expect Valeria to help me with that.God is really on
my side; Mason's face was full of joy for this matter.
"Really? That's wonderful, isn't it?"
Elizabeth's face flashed a hint of joy.
"It's a good thing that William and Valeria are together now .Father knew Valeria as your
girlfriend.When the time is right, let's tell my dad that Valeria cheated on you with William.Adding to the
incident where Valeria pushed Ashley that led to her miscarriage, my dad would definitely hate her! If
my dad doesn't like Valeria, then it would be a problem for William.’
Elizabeth immediately became spirited, "There, now you have an explanation for why William hit
you.Just say it was because Valeria was angry with you.Yes, that's it!"
