Chapter73
But she had no other way
Everyone knew that she was a lickspittle of Terrence.
No other men liked her.
In Houston, she only had one connection, Roderick.
After careful consideration, Valerie finally sent the text “Roderick, I have moved out of Foliage Villa. This is my new address. If the police contact you, please give them this address.”
Roderick replied to the text instantly “llow did you move out of Foliage Villa?”
Valerie pursed her lips and texted “The situation is a bit complicated. I will explain it to you when I have time.”
“Okay.”
Valerie exited the chat interface and started searching for private detectives online,
She had to leave Houston as soon as possible.
Her father’s antiques were still in Washington.
Jazlynn and Abbigail would not give up easily.
When Terrence rushed back to the restaurant, the position where Valerie was originally sitting had been taken by a woman who looked somewhat vulgar.
The woman, heavily made up, with bright red lips, coquettishly flirted with the man sitting across from her.
“Darling. I just want you to feed me.”
The man opposite her had an expression of indulgence and helplessness. “Alright, alright, I’ll feed you.”
After saying that, he picked up the fork and brought the steak to the woman’s lips.
In the past, when Terrence saw such a scene, he would only think it was tacky and vulgar.
But today, he felt inexplicable warmth.
In her memory, when he started dating Valerie, the latter also used to act coquettishly towards him, but he had a cleanliness obsession, so every time Valerie mentioned it, he would just brush it off.
Later, Valerie never mentioned it again.
Terrence’s eyelids flickered.
Suddenly, it dawned on Terrence that over the years, Valerie’s enthusiasm seemed to have gradually diminished.
He felt extremely sorry about it, and he turned around to dial Valerie’s number.
No one answered the call.
He dialed the phone number of the villa again.
This time, someone did answer, but the servant who answered the call told him that Valerie had not returned to the villa.
