Marrying The Supposed Gold Digger (Valerie) novel Chapter 984

As the year came to a close, Valerie's brand achieved remarkable success, ranking first in the annual brand growth rate and becoming one of the most beloved brands among consumers. Upon receiving this award, Valerie was elated, feeling that such recognition was well-deserved.

From the initial confirmation to the current widespread success, Valerie personally oversaw every major decision. Now, she could finally relax a bit. At year's end, she ensured that her employees were well-rewarded, with everyone receiving a big gift bag. The staff were thrilled and even shared their excitement publicly on social media.

In no time, Valerie's company became the most coveted workplace, with the industry calling her a dark horse. Her entry into the Wakefield City market, especially with Matthew's support, showcased her as a savvy investor. People even started messaging on Valerie's social media, urging her to expand recruitment as they wanted to join the company.

Valerie chuckled when she saw these comments. She reflected on how she had transformed from a minor player into an admired investment guru. People praised her for her vision, which she attributed to her insightful choices, including meeting and marrying Matthew. She realized that every step she had taken had been deliberate and well-planned, leading to the success she now enjoyed.

Seeing this, Matthew walked over and embraced her shoulders, playfully asking, "So, can this powerful woman support me in the future?"

Valerie immediately burst into laughter. "Stop joking around!"

"I'm serious," he paused. "I'm planning to take a break soon, so you'll be the one supporting me."

Valerie looked up at Matthew's slightly graying hair and felt a pang of sympathy. "Sure, but if Mr. Grant wants me to support you, you'd better be ready. I'm quite particular, so you'll have to follow my lead!"

Matthew gave a thumbs-up, and Hugo and Yumi hurried over, exclaiming, "Support me too!"

"Of course, you are my precious one—Mommy will take good care of you!" Valerie said.

Hugo immediately perked up at the news, casting a triumphant glance at Matthew.

Matthew was taken aback by Hugo's gaze. "Who taught this little brat? Always trying to one-up me. Just look at that expression—he's challenging me!"

Valerie couldn't help but laugh. "Alright, you should be a bit more mature. Always competing with your son for attention!"

Matthew felt truly defeated by Hugo. "He looked down on me!" Hugo always seemed to go against him. Once they were back in Kranson City, Matthew planned to send Hugo to kindergarten and enjoy some quality time with Valerie, just the two of them.

Valerie shook her head and said, "He's just a kid. You're making too much of it!"

"Even you're saying that, dear? I'm disappointed. You know we went through so much just to have this child. Now you've forgotten that I'm still your loving husband!" He held onto Valerie tightly.

Valerie couldn't help but laugh at how Matthew was acting like a child. "Alright, stop messing around. Hugo will start crying soon if you don't stop."

"Let him cry. Who cares?" Matthew said.

Valerie was at a loss for words, and just then, Katherine and the others arrived. As the end of the year approached, everyone was getting ready to head back to Kranson City.

Aiden was brimming with excitement. Adrienne, now six months old, was dressed adorably. As she looked at Valerie waving at her, Aiden immediately extended his arms, eager for her to hold his sister. "Aunt, hold her! Look how cute Adrienne is!"
