Chapter 179

Eliza frowned and clicked the link while she was on the phone. There was a video that was secretly recorded on the link. The woman sitting across from Beau was Lucija. Lucija first took out a piece of paper from behind and handed it to Beau. The atmosphere between the two was not very good. In the end, Beau took the paper and left, while Lucija angrily smashed things in the cafe. At the end of the video, it showed the crazy look of Lucija in the cafe, which was recorded by someone in the cafe with his phone. “What are you looking at? Haven’t you seen someone break up?” Her crazy look was really… really ugly. “Eliza, do… do you know this woman?” On the other end of the phone, Graciana asked in a low voice. “Yes, I do.” Eliza smiled faintly and closed the video. “This woman is the Lucija.” Graciana gasped and said, “She is the Lucija? The one who has been trying to marry Mr. Valentine?” Although Graciana had never seen this person before, she had more or less heard some rumors regarding Lucija from Eliza. For example, Lucija claimed to be Beau’s fiancee, and Lucija kept using Chasity to challenge Eliza. “It’s her.” Eliza turned on the hands-free mode and put the phone on the table. She said to Graciana while packing her luggage, “It should be noon today.” No wonder Beau said strangely that he wanted to go to the company after receiving a call. It turned out that Lucija was looking for him. Graciana bit her lip on the other end of the line and said, “Is Beau…” Instead of answering her question, Eliza changed the topic. “Mr. Diaz just said that the crew will go to the mountainous area for a week for the shooting. He said that Julian has other arrangements next week.” “You’ve always been most concerned about Julian’s movements. Where will he go next week?” When Eliza mentioned Julian, Graciana bit her lips silently. “He’s going back to Puskia next week, his own home.” “The fans found out the reason… His cousin is getting married.” “The woman he’s going to marry is the second daughter of the Chapman family, who matches his family well.” After that, Graciana could not help sighing. “I heard that the Benton family and the Chapman family have arranged marriages for this generation.” “Not only does Julian’s cousin have to marry the second daughter of the Chapman family, but Julian himself was also engaged to the first daughter of the Chapman family.” “But the first daughter of the Chapman family was abducted at an early age. Her family has been searching for her for more than ten years, but they can’t find her.”   “There is also a saying that the Chapman family did not look for her and just let her be.” Speaking of this, Graciana sighed. “The affairs of the rich and powerful families are really complicated… They stopped finding their daughter just like that.” “And now that Julian has adopted a daughter, but he still can’t get a new wife.” “However…” Graciana paused. “Judging from Julian’s attitude towards you, I think he will most likely cancel the engagement and come after you.” Eliza was amused by her. “What are you talking about?” “I’m married. Why does he need to come after me? He should go after you instead.” “Even Beau could meet the woman who pursued him behind your back. What’s wrong with having a man who comes after you?” . Graciana curled her lips and felt very unfair. “Eliza, I always thought that Mr. Valentine treats you well and he won’t be like any other man!” “He is indeed different from other men.” Eliza chuckled and continued packing her luggage. “I don’t think there’s anything going on between him and Lucija.” “They just had a cup of coffee together.” “If they get a room together, I might be nervous.” After that, she breathed a sigh of relief. “Let’s not talk about this. Are you familiar with Mystery County, where we are going tomorrow?”

Beau was in a meeting for the entire afternoon. Recently, a foreign branch became a listing company, and the market there was turbulent. There were many unexpected situations that needed to be dealt with by him. He didn’t even have dinner. He just ate a sandwich and went back to work. The long meeting finally ended at five o’clock the next morning. On the way back, he leaned tiredly on the leather seats of the car and asked faintly, “Is Mrs. Valentine at work or at home?” “She’s at work.” Noah replied fearfully, “Last night, Mrs. Valentine said that the crew will be going out for the shooting in the mountainous area today. She was afraid that she’d be late in the morning and didn’t want to delay other people’s time, so she went over to the crew.” After that, Noah glanced at the time. “The crew should be ready to set off now.” Beau nodded and closed his eyes. “Let’s go to the hotel of the crew.” Noah frowned. “Do you want to see Mrs. Valentine?” He coughed lightly. “When Mrs. Valentine left yesterday, she specifically asked me to tell you that if you’re too tired, don’t go to a place like the mountains. She’s only there for work, and it’s only a week. She will be back soon.” Noah’s words made Beau’s heart freeze slightly. He smiled faintly. “She’s quite considerate.” “However…” Noah braced himself. “Yesterday afternoon, someone recorded a video of you meeting with  Lucija and posted it online. Beau slowly opened his eyes. “And then?” “I knew that you were busy yesterday that you didn’t have time to deal with these things, so I asked someone to delete it and control the public opinion online.” “I thought my action was fast enough that Mrs. Valentine would not be able to see it…” “But last night, when Mrs. Valentine talked to a friend on the phone, it seemed that she saw it..” In the back seat of the car, Beau’s eyebrows twisted hard. He picked up the phone that Noah had handed him. The video on the mobile phone showed the scene, which was secretly taken by someone, of him meeting Lucija. His hand, which was holding the phone, began to turn white. He did not expect that Lucija would play this trick on him! He squinted and watched the video three times. “How was Mrs. Valentine’s… mood when she left yesterday?” “I can’t tell.” Noah told the truth, “She was very calm.” “But when talking to her friend, her voice was a little nasal…” Noah carefully looked at Beau’s face from the rearview mirror. “I guess that Mrs. Valentine must have… cried.” Beau’s eyes darkened. His heart sank. Eliza had never had any confidence in their feelings. Even when she was drunk, she said that he did not love her. He told her that he was going to the company for a meeting at noon today, but in fact, he was going to see the Lucija. Did she let her imagination run wild when she saw the video? Thinking of this, Beau closed his eyes and sighed deeply. “I’m not going home.” “Get ready to go to the mountain area where she will shoot.” Noah was stunned. “But Sîr, you didn’t sleep all night.” Beau stared coldly at Noah. “Do you think I can still sleep?”
