In fact, at that moment, Valerie's voice was trembling.
There was a secret that she couldn't tell. It had been eating at her conscience. It was too painful.
The driver took a paper bag. Valerie picked up the kitten's body and put it in the bag. She did not care about the blood staining her body. When she held the dead kitten in her arms, she muttered repeatedly, "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I really didn't mean it."
She wasn't saying it to the cat.
However, Jasper didn't know.
When the cat was put into the bag, the driver took them to a lakeside and buried the cat's body next to a willow tree before leaving.
On the way back, Valerie had been laying beside Jasper. When the car arrived at her door, Valerie stumbled to the house.
Amelia Harington and Hector Rae went out to socialize. Valerie didn't speak to the servants and went back to her room.
She curled up under a blanket and reflected on what had happened that day. It seemed to be a unbelievable coincidence. She had just known that Hendrick was Coralie's father, and then they ran over a cat...
It was said that cats were intelligent, was it trying to hint her?
Valerie fell asleep in a daze. In the middle of the night, a cold wind suddenly blew from behind her neck. She opened her eyes, and found that she could not move or make a sound at all, but she was conscious.
Valerie struggled desperately. Hendrick's expression as well as the things she had done to Coralie popped up on her mind again. Valerie continued to struggle.
Fear occupied her whole heart.
Not knowing how long it took, Valerie realized that she was able to move. She was so scared that she picked up her phone and the first thing she did was to call Skylar, but when the number was dialed, she quickly hung up.
Then, she called Jasper.
"Jasper, I, you, can you come and pick me up?"
At that time, Valerie looked as if she just came out of the water, drenched in sweat.
Jasper had already fallen asleep. He was a little surprised to hear Valerie's voice, but still, he said, "Okay, your house?"
"Yes."
After saying that, Valerie got changed and tied her hair into a ponytail. She did not wear any makeup, put on her coat and went out in a hurry.
Since it was late at night, the servants, Amelia and Hector were asleep.
Valerie stood at the door. After waiting for a while, she saw Jasper's car coming over.
As Jasper rushed over to pick her up, he wasn't wearing a suit. He came there with a coat and his pajamas. He was wearing glasses and he looked gentle.
"I'm sorry, Jasper, for calling you so late."
Valerie got in the car, looking very apologetic.
She was actually quite good-looking, so even if she wasn't wearing any makeup, she still looked beautiful.
"What's wrong? Did you quarrel with your family?"
Jasper started the car as soon as he said that.
"I... I had a nightmare. I dreamt of that kitten..."
Valerie could only say so. She could only bury her past misdeed in her heart.
"Oh, you are too kind."
When Valerie was having breakfast, she heard Jasper was on the phone outside. Hence, she slowed down and carefully eavesdropped on his phone conversation.
"Dad, I asked someone. The family name of Coralie's mother is indeed Jean. If there is no mistake, she might be the person you are looking for."
Upon hearing that, Valerie was a little confused.
Jasper was looking for Coralie? What did that mean?
She continued to listen patiently.
"But Coralie really is nothing special. Are you sure you want to reconcile with this daughter? As far as I know, she is not that good. Her foster father passed away and her family is very poor, so she targeted on the rich. Originally, Valerie was Skylar's fiancee. I heard that in order to stop them from getting engaged, she used some dirty tricks and almost put Skylar into jail. She even broke Valerie's leg. Are you sure you want to reconcile with a daughter like that?"
Everything Jasper said was all from Valerie's sharing.
It was because he believed that Valerie was a good person. Thus, he took in everything Valerie said after only a brief investigation.
"Even if you want to reconcile, I won't accept this sister. If she is kind but poor, then I have nothing to say. But she has done so many bad things, and also what she has done to Valerie, you still want to reconcile?"
Jasper was mad as his voice became louder.
However, when he realized that Valerie was still inside, he quickly lowered his voice and said, "I will only help you this far for this matter. If you feel sorry for Auntie Carter and want to reconciled with this daughter, you should do it yourself."
After that, he hung up the phone.
At that time, Valerie walked out with a sliced bread with jam. She pretended that she didn't know anything and looked at Jasper, "Jasper, who were you talking to? Why are you so angry?"
She was a sly person, she was wearing the blouse Jasper left in the room. The blouse was long, covering her underwear, but her fair legs were exposed. Her mouth was stained with jam, making her look very seductive.
As she spoke, she walked to Jasper and then sat on Jasper's lap. She naughtily licked the jam on her lips and asked, "Are you always so busy?"
