Marrying The Supposed Gold Digger (Valerie) novel Chapter 389

Chapter 389 

Valerie now truly fo 

now truly felt how great it must be to be wealthy. In her daydreams, she only hoped she could afford a three–bedroom apartitient. 

The Anderson family had acquired the entire hill, constructing a grand mansion from its base to its peak. Breathing in the air filled with the scent of grass and the aura of freedom and wealth, Valerie continued following Max deeper inside. 

Finally, Max pointed to a luxurious mansion, saying, “Here it is” 

As they approached closer, Valerie saw the magnificent mansion gate with its grand stone pillars and ornate ironwork, a typical ancient architectural style. Inside the walls, a few tree branches were adomed with flower buds, adding a touch of chilly beauty. The setting sun cast its light on the roof, creating dappled shadows, while dozens of luxury cars were neatly parked along the wall. 

Flanking the imposing gate were two statues that exuded grandeur. The gate stood open, and a gentle breeze passed through the hollowed–out designs of the screen wall. Below the wall were rows of orchids. 

Valerie looked up and saw they were the most expensive species, the Moonlight Orchid. Few pots of this orchid could buy a house in Kranson City. Yet here they were casually placed under the wall. Any ordinary family would have long ago brought them indoors for careful nurturing 

It was truly extravagant. Even the stones paving the entrance were worth a fortune. 

Valerie remembered watching a documentary that featured a segment on a type of rare golden stone. It was known for its clarity and fine texture, valued at 200 thousand dollars. Historically, this stone was used for carving royal seals, so it was also called the Emperor Stone. Now, it was used as paving stones, a clear indication of the family’s immense wealth. 

However, this sense of awe–inspiring opulence was overshadowed by the sorrow of the memorial service setting. Yet, Valerie’s mind felt somewhat sufled for some reason. 

A vague image seemed to be surfacing in her thoughts, but she couldn’t grasp it at the moment. She felt a strange sense of déjà vu in her heart, even though it was her first time visiting this place. If not for Max guiding her, she would never have found her way here today. 

Speaking of the Anderson family, Valerie recalled Katherine mentioning the poor lule girl from the Anderson family. She wondered if the memorial service was for her. 

“Mr. Redfield, who is the memorial service for today?” she finally asked 

“It’s for Sarah, the granddaughter of the Anderson family. If she hasn’t passed away, she would be about your age. This child went missing at the age of four or five, and after so many years, we’ve only now discovered that she’s been gone… Max sighed. “It’s heartbreaking and tragic to finally say goodbye to her.” 

Valerie couldn’t help feeling that behind Max’s sighs, there was more to the story. As she looked at his sorrowful and guilty expression, it seemed there was a deeper connection between him and the girl
