William sat inside his office in Wolf Group with a strict expression on his face as he twirled the pen he was holding.
Marcus reported, "What was Ronald thinking when he decided to bring Valeria to meet Declan in a VIP club lounge?"
William chuckled coldly, "Are the results of Ronald and Valeria's paternal test out yet?"
"They are.I sent their DNA out to ten different labs in three different cities so that the results would be accurate.It took a whole week, and the results were all the same.Ronald and Valeria aren't related at all!"
"Ah! I see" William sighed in relief.
"I had kind of expected this.After all, I didn't think that Ronald would commit these crimes against Valeria if she was his real daughter”
"Ronald must have arranged for Declan and Valeria to meet so that he could push her into the tiger's den! Mr.Howard, I think we should deal with that lunatic as soon as possible!"
Marcus exclaimed angrily "I know, but I'm just worried about what Valeria would think if we dealt with Ronald now; William sighed, "She would be extremely upset if she knew that Ronald wasn't her birth father."
"Why would she be upset?"
The words came out of Marcus’ mouth before he figured out why.
If Valeria was not Ronald's child, that meant that Natalie had been cheating on Ronald this whole time with another man! Valeria would be crushed if she knew that Natalie had been an unfaithful wife as Natalie had been her role model this whole time.
Marcus understood why William was feeling so troubled, "What do we do now? Instead of leaving Valeria to face Ronald all by herself, we should tell her the truth right?"
"Ronald won't be able to do anything to her as long as I've got her back.Anyways, she needs to realise how evil Ronald can be and give up on him herself.I would only be wiling to tell her the truth then so that she would not be too upset about it."
This was the only solution that he could think of.
Marcus continued after a slight pause, "Miss Brown and the Sir Hayden also went out for a cup of coffee today.I couldn't overhear their conversation, but in the end Sir looked really angry when he left the coffee shop"
"Well Valeria probably won against my father if he stormed out of the coffee shop angrily"
William grinned, "Valeria is stubborn and she also has a fiery temper, I bet she gave a good scolding to my father when he told her to break up with me."
"You think so?"
Marcus was relieved after hearing William's words.
As the both of them continued to discuss other company issues, Bobby entered William's office suddenly, "Sir, our sources have spotted Lamont!"
"Uh! Where is he?"
William could barely hide the excitement in his eyes once he heard about the news.
"Lamont is with Miss Brown right now.They're discussing some issue, but we couldn't overhear their conversation because of how cautious Lamont was."
"What's the address of the coffee shop? I'll head over right now!"
William ordered as he began to pick up his car keys before he was stopped by Bobby, "Sir, Lamont's dangerous, who knows what might happen if you decide to meet him alone?"
"What are you worried about? I wouldn't be so foolish to do something to Lamont under broad daylight!"
William declared as he patted Bobby's shoulder.
"Besides, I won't be making any moves until we find out the truth of the incident that happened years ago."
Bobby was relieved after hearing William's explanation, "Alright, I'll go with you!"
"I'll be fine, Lamont would be more suspicious of me if there was someone with me.I'm going myself."
Bobby looked to Marcus for help when he realised that he wasn't able to stop William from meeting Lamont, "Why aren't you stopping him, Assistant Field?"
"How can I stop him? It'll be fine as Miss Brown is at the coffee shop too.Nothing will happen as Sir William would be able to control his temper in front of her"
Valeria and Lamont were chatting when her phone rang.
