William walked quickly to his car, but just as he opened the car door, Michael called him.
"William, you should come to Revolving Restaurant now.Your woman is being stolen by Hardy.Come get even with him."
"Heh" William snorted coldly into his phone.
"What? You don't believe me? They are chatting and laughing happily.lt seems that they're quite close"
"Even if they are, so what? Don't bother telling me such things in future.I don't want to know."
"What do you mean? Are both of you still in a cold war? You're a man, you should just let it go."
"It's not a cold war, it's a breakup! She has nothing to do with me anymore"
"Are you...telling the truth?"
"When did I ever joke?" William answered as he got on the car.
Hearing the car door shut loudly, Michael jumped in shock .
Was he angry? Was he angry because he broke up with her? Michael had only wanted to agitate William, but now he didn't dare to say anything else.
"Okay, let's have a drink tonight."
"Okay, meet you at our rendezvous" William hung up the phone.
Michael stood there for a while and called Richard.
"William and Valeria have broken up.He seems to be enraged.I shouldn't have told him about Valeria and Hardy having dinner”
"It's normal to be pissed off after his girlfriend got stolen away.But it's a good thing that they've broken up.They can just go their separate ways now, Richard said nonchalantly.
"So should we console him tonight?"
"Console him? He's smart and logical enough, he doesn't need us to console him.We just have to drink with him."
After Valeria and Hardy finished their meal, Hardy sent her home.As she walked past the courtyard, Ronald walked out of the house.He smiled at her when he saw her.
"You're back?"
"Yeah..." Valeria answered faintly.
"Did Hardy send you back?"
"Yes’' Valeria answered with a flash of annoyance in her expression.She walked past Ronald and walked into the house.
Ronald followed her and asked, "Why didn't you ask him to come in?"
How could she, a single woman, asking a single man to come into her house? What the hell was he talking about? Valeria sneered silently.She did not want to speak to Ronald at all and she just made her way up the staircase.
Ronald stopped her.
"Wait, come here.I have something to Say.
Valeria walked to the sofa across him and sat down.
"What is it?"
Ronald coughed slightly and said, "Uhm...Did Hardy invite you to his cruise party?"
"No." Valeria shook her head.
"Why didn't he?"
Ronald couldn't quite believe her.
"Dad, why would he invite me? I don't even know him well? “ Valeria could not take it any longer.
"He's nice to you and even agreed to collaborate with me.He even asked you to work at his office and prepared an office for you.He treats you nicely, so of course, he would send you an invitation card"
"Dad, I think you've got it wrong.He didn't agree to work with you, but it's you that kept clinging on to him.As for me working at his company, that was your suggestion.He agreed to it because he didn't want to embarrass you.Please don't think so highly of me"
"Even so, Hardy really treats you well.Didn't you notice that he is different towards you? Yesterday night after the rumor spread, he didn't do anything about it.
He even let you work at his company.
That is enough to prove that you are special to him.
Hearing the word 'rumor', Valeria looked up in surprise.
Ronald was someone who could do anything for his own selfish means.
She was suspicious about the rumor between herself and Hardy went viral the other day.She looked at Ronald doubtfully.
"You are the one that spread the rumor, right?"
