Marrying The Supposed Gold Digger (Valerie) novel Chapter 148

Chapter 148 

“Hello, who is this?” The voice on the other end of the phone was originally lazy. When he heard Matthew speak, he instantly jolted and sat up straight. “It’s you, Mr. Grant. You rarely call. How can I help you? 

Matthew explained his purpose and asked, “Can you do it?” 

The other speaker grinned. “Mr. Grant, you‘ 

derestimated me. This is easy. 

Besides, even if it’s difficult, I will handle it beautifully for your sake. However, I’m a little curious. According to what you said, she’s just an inexperienced country woman. Why would you take time out of your busy day to deal with her? Who is she?” 

Matthew glanced at Valerie’s departing back. He said in a low voice, “Ex–mother–in- law.” 

The other speaker almost choked. He had been in Kranson City for so many years, but did not know when Matthew got married. When he was about to ask, Matthew had hung up the phone. He only said, “Thanks for your help.” 

On the other end of the line, the man played with the phone playfully. A student came over curiously and asked, “Sir, who was the person who answered the call just now that made you so respectful?” 

The man smiled leisurely. “It’s a call from the most honorable man in Kranson City. Of course, we have to show him respect. Let’s go. Come with me. We have big business today…” 

After most of the guests had left, the party was almost over. 

Ruth personally sent Marcus back to his house and even bought a lot of gifts for him. As Jim had an argument with Aiden over toys today, to please Marcus, she specially bought toys for Jim. “Aiden’s toy is used. I will buy you a new one.” 

However, when Ruth arrived at the mall, she was instantly dumbfounded when she saw the latest model of the same toy. She thought that a toy would at most cost forty dollars, but the toy cost 360 dollars. It was almost as expensive as the gifts she

had just bought. 

However, Ruth was the one who had pronised. She could only bite the bullet and pay. Jim took the new toy and ran away without even thanking her. 

Ruth was unhappy, but she did not dare to offend Marcus. She did not dare to say anything until they were about to go home Then, she asked indirectly, “Marcus, you promised to arrange a job for your broth law. Don’t forget. We’re family anyway. You can rest assured if you hire family.” 

Marcus was slightly tipsy from the alcohol and nodded his head repeatedly. “Alright. I’ll remember.” However, he did not say when he would arrange it or what position he would arrange. 

After Marcus left, Ruth secretly planned to bring Julian over tomorrow and let Julian bribe Marcus more. However, Julian’s stubbornness sometimes made people angry. He did not curry favor with his in–laws and had to live a poor life. 

Speaking of which, Julian was usually close to Valerie. Ruth wondered if Valerie had brainwashed Julian. 

Thinking of this, Ruth was filled with anger again. Unexpectedly, when she returned home, she heard happy news. The village was recording an appraisal program and a gentleman had come to buy authentic artifacts. 

Ruth’s sister–in–law said, “Ruth, didn’t you just get a top–grade gold vase? Why don’t you send it over for authentication?” 

Ruth knew the price of the gold vase. After all, the authentication certificate clearly stated it was worth 17.6 thousand dollars. However, only a few people knew about this. If it were on the show, everyone in the neighborhood would know about it. Ruth loved to show off. She immediately carried the gold vase over.
