Marrying The Supposed Gold Digger (Valerie) novel Chapter 283

Chapter 283 

Matthew considered the possibility, a glint of cunning flashing his eyes, his expression unreadable. The complexities of high society were not meant for outsiders, and as a member of the Grant family, he couldn’t directly intervene in the Anderson family’s affairs. His only option seemed to find a way to place a couple of informants within the Anderson family to protect Olivia better. Resolving to this course of action, he strode towards the door. Just as he stepped out, he was met with Louis’s mocking voice, 

“Matthew, do you know what I admire most about you? You can lie without even a hint of embarrassment. Louis said mockingly. Matthew had thought Louis had left, but he had been waiting outside the whole time. Remembering Louis’s earlier provocations, Matthew couldn’t be bothered to respond. He ignored him and headed straight for the parking lot.

Louis, already seething with anger, couldn’t hold back when he saw Matthew ignoring him. “Matthew, do conscience? Why are you lying to Mrs. Anderson? You’re married to Valerie. Would admitting it kill you?” he asked. 

“My affairs are none of your business” Standing face to face, Mathew, slightly taller than Louis, exuded a cold and arrogant demeanor as he looked down at him. “Move aside!” They would have probably been intimidated by Matthew’s imposing presence if it were anyone else. However, after years of rivalry, the colder Matthew became, the more stubborn Louis grew. 

Louis adjusted his glasses and sneered. “And why wouldn’t it be my business? Valerie is Katherine’s friend, which makes her my friend too. Standing up for a friend is perfectly justified. Her affairs are my concern!” Valerie was a good girl, and he couldn’t stand by while Matthew mistreated her. 

“Did you know? Valerie told me that she doesn’t care if you’re a driver. To her, professions hold no distinction in dignity; all she needs is a sincere heart. But look at you, Mr. Grant of the prestigious Noria Group, unmatched in fame and fortune. Erom the start, you never intended to be with her. You hid your identity and toyed with her feelings. Matthew, I used to think you were just naturally cold–blooded, but I never imagined you’d be so outrageous!” Louis exclaimed, his voice filled with disdain. 

Louis wasn’t usually one to meddle in other people’s affairs, but Valerie’s situation constantly reminded him of someone else, making it impossible for him to stay calm. He Would have shaken Valerie awake if he could, urging such a good girl to stay as far away from Matthew as possible. The aggression in Louis’s words succeeded in darkening Matthew’s already grim expression even further. 

Just as Louis thought Matthew would lose his temper, Matthew instead remained silent momentarily before speaking seriously, “I know Valerie Warren is a wonderful person. Just because she’s so good, I must be cautious.” 

Louis didn’t believe him. “What do you mean by that?” 

Matthew’s expression was dark and relentless. “Louis, both you and I are heirs to our families. You’ve undoubtedly experienced plenty of internal strife over the years. There will always be people coveting this position. There’s no need to drag her into it. 

He knew Valerie was a good girl. Despite initially misunderstanding her and thinking she was a ruthless material girl, even suspecting she was coercing him into marriage for money, everything became clear once he understood her life circumstances. As they spent more time together, he gradually discovered her unique qualities. Having lost his parents at a young age and finding solace in work until he secured his position at Noria Group, he found himself oddly adrit after achieving success. It wasn’t until he married her that he felt he was truly living. He struggled to articulate his direct feelings for Valerie, but he knew she was important to him. It could be her if Matthew were to have a wife in his lifetime. 

In the past, the reason he kept his identity hidden from Valerie was twofold. Firstly, he felt that Valerie hadn’t entirely confided in him and might have essential secrets of her own. Secondly, he understood the complexities of high society and wanted to protect her from unnecessary entanglements. Having personally experienced the pitfalls of public scrutiny, he aimed to shield Valerie from potential harm. If their relationship were to become public, Valerie might have lost her freedom, with her career and personal life subjected to intense scrutiny. Matthew wasn’t entirely sure if she could have withstood the public scrutiny and criticism. Nevertheless, their life together at the time was already fulfilling and satisfactory- 

Louis listened to Matthew in disbelief, as if he had just heard something absurd. He stood frozen in place, staring at

“Of course,” Matthew replied curtly, dismissing further conversation with Louis. He glanced impatiently at his watch, realizing he had wasted enough time. He moved past Louis and left.
