Marrying The Supposed Gold Digger (Valerie) novel Chapter 131

Chapter 131 

Valerie immediately shook her head. “Mr. Grant has something important to do at work tomorrow, so I won’t let him come. I send his regards to Mom and bring the gift to her.” 

Valerie lied and used the excuse Matthew was busy. She knew that her mother would talk about betrothal gifts. She did not want to cause trouble for Matthew. 

Julian knew his mother’s personality, so he did not say much. He instructed Aiden to learn the piano well. Then, he watched Valerie leave with Aiden. He returned to the shop to continue arranging fruits. 

Ashley sat on the chair and scrolled through videos on her phone. However, she had heard every word of the siblings‘ conversation. She couldn’t help but say, “After Valerie married, she became more rebellious. She doesn’t even want to bring her husband to celebrate your mom’s birthday. Aren’t you afraid your mom will be 

angry…” 

Julian frowned and interrupted, “Valerie is already an adult. She knows her limits. Don’t interfere.” 

Ashley shut her mouth in embarrassment. Yesterday’s quarrel had caused such a huge commotion that she actually regretted it. 

Although Ashley usually thought Julian was short and not very handsome, Julian was not ugly. He also had a refined temperament. His usual hobbies were reading books and listening to songs. He did not smoke, drink, or gamble. He worked hard to support his family and treated her quite well. 

Ashley’s family background was average. Her parents gave birth to two siblings. Her younger brother was ambitious. After graduating and starting a business, he ruined his already meager family’s finances and was in debt. Back then, Julian’s betrothal gift was secretly taken by her family to repay her younger brother’s debt. He even used it to marry. 

On the other hand, Ashley did not have the brains to study. Since she did not pass. the college entrance examination, she could only come out and work. After being with Julian, she did not work anymore and did not have special talents. Ashley knew that if she quarreled with Julian and asked for a divorce, she would not be

“Alright. I’m just talking. Besides, I’m just concerned Valerie would be scolded by your mom,” Ashley said. 

Julian looked much better when he heard that. However, when he thought of the birthday party tomorrow, he felt a wave of pressure. He could only hope that everything would go smoothly tomorrow. 

Ashley glanced at Julian’s worried expression and knew he was worried about his sister again. She smiled coldly and thought to herself, ‘What’s there to worry about Valerie? She married a poor husband and likes to brag. Since she likes to pretend so much, I will see how she pretends tomorrow.” 

Looking back at her phone, Ashley swiped her fingers on the phone screen a few times. She saw a video and smiled. 

Julian asked, “What did you see that was so funny?” 

Ashley replied, “Nothing. By the way, hubby, I got something on. I’ll be back later.” 

Julian was about to ask Ashley what she was going to do when she suddenly hugged him and kissed him on the cheek. “Hubby, I’m sorry. I shouldn’t have quarreled with you yesterday. Don’t be angry. I’ll bring you delicious food tonight.” 

Julian was a magnanimous person. Besides, they were married for many years. Their child was already big, and he liked it when everything was harmonious at home. When Ashley said that, he smiled helplessly. “Alright.” 

Unbeknownst to him, when Ashley left the shop, she wiped her lips with the back. of her hand in disdain. Then, she quickly took a lipstick from her pocket to touch up her makeup.

Valerie brought Aiden to the streets to shop and buy groceries. Not long after they reached home, Matthew happened to return. 

Valerie handed him a pair of slippers and said to Aiden, “Aiden, look who’s back.” Aiden immediately ran over from the balcony. Valerie noticed that he was still
