Marrying The Supposed Gold Digger (Valerie)

“Why do you think he’s not simple?” asked Valerie.

“Look, the car he drives is a Land Rover, and he can drive it so skillfully.” Katherine had a surprised expression.

Valerie was convinced of the fact that Matthew was a chauffeur. “That’s his boss’s car. He is a chauffeur, and of course, he is skillful.”

“But didn’t you see the expensive clothes he was wearing? And his every move was dignified.” Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org exclusive © material.

Valerie thought for a moment and said, “He dresses expensively because it’s required for his job, and as for you saying he’s dignified, it’s probably because he’s tall and well–built.”

“Alas.” Katherine was left speechless by her retort and couldn’t help but stamp her foot in frustration. “Trust me. From my years of experience in reading romance novels, mysterious men who are willing to accept a flash marriage like this are definitely not ordinary men. The luxury car he’s driving might be his own, and he may have many luxury cars in his garage. Believe it or not, he drives a different one every day.”

Valerie really couldn’t help but laugh. “Katherine, you know it was something that only happened in romance novels. What happens in romantic novels is different from reality. If the man I casually find to marry is a rich and powerful CEO, then wouldn’t there be rich and powerful CEOs everywhere in the world? And I met his boss this afternoon. His boss is one of the leaders of Noria Group and is quite easy–going. He needs to accompany his boss to and from high–class occasions, so the clothes he is wearing should be bought by his boss for him to wear on important occasions. So, don’t be fooled. Mr. Grant is really just an ordinary guy.”

Unexpectedly, Katherine’s eyes lit up suddenly at her words. “Noria Group? Valerie, don’t you remember, that the CEO of Noria Group seems to be surnamed Grant? And your husband’s surname is Grant as well. Do you think…”

Valerie was amused. “You’re getting more and more outrageous. You’re not trying to say that my husband is the CEO of Noria Group, are you?” After that, she simply took Katherine to the fifth floor and pressed the code to open the apartment door. “Mr. Grant bought this apartment. If he’s really the CEO of Noria Group, do you think he would be willing to live in such a place?”

The apartment was very big and the decoration was simple. Although it did not look so poor, it was definitely far from the luxury villas in TV dramas. After looking around, Katherine finally accepted the reality. “Okay, it seems that kind of plot is really only present in novels.”

“Yes, so stop getting any more ideas. Valerie took out the drinks she bought yesterday from the refrigerator.

Matthew did do what he said that as long as Valerie didn’t come into his room, he wouldn’t interfere with whatever she did in the common area.

Katherine took a small sip of her drink and couldn’t help but smile again. “Flash marriage is indeed quite strange, but since you live here, you no longer have to be forced into marriage by your mother, nor do you have to suffer from the glare of others. Your life is much more easier than before.”

Valerie thought for a moment and replied, “Indeed.”

“What are your next plans then?” Katherine became serious.

Valerie had certainly thought about her future plans. “Mr. Grant is a good man and I will get along with him during the marriage relationship. Of course, during these six months, I still need to save

up money the most. Although I have a bit of savings, raising a baby requires a lot of money. What if I can’t afford to raise him? I would be too sorry for him…”

“No worries. You still have me. After the baby is born, I will raise him with you,” said Katherine with a smile.

Valerie was amused by Katherine and smiled. “For real? That’s great. If I really can’t afford to raise the baby, I’ll rely on you.”

Valerie knew that Katherine was not talking big. Katherine was looking for a job when Valerie met her for the first time, with a designer outfit. The reason was simple – she was a lady from a rich family and was unhappy with her family’s arranged marriage, so she left her family.”

But Katherine didn’t have the arrogance of a rich lady, and she really managed to stand on her own two feet. In the past few months, she had put away her designer luxury goods and been like any other ordinary worker renting an apartment, eating the same cheap food, and wearing ordinary professional clothes every day. Therefore, no one in Arcton Cars except Valerie knew her background.

Valerie didn’t really know Katherine’s specific background. She thought it was very rude to pry into other people’s personal matters, and if Katherine were willing to tell, she would naturally tell her. However, she knew that Katherine had a good family background and that her monthly salary now at Arcton Cars was probably not even enough to cover the cost of buying her previous pair of shoes.

“By the way, are you keeping Caleb in the dark about your situation?” Valerie suddenly remembered something.

Katherine shrugged. “My family and I are in a mess right now. There’s no point in talking to Caleb about it because it would just make him worry along with me. One day, if my family gives up

pushing me and I’m willing to go back, I’ll tell him.”
