Chapter 231
Valerie, her face flushed, spoke sofily, “They were being used by others. Escaping safely at that time was all that mattered”
“You may end up at a disadvantage this way, Matthew said with concern.
Hearing Matthew’s words, Valerie was taken aback, then she chuckled. “Mr. Grant, are

“You can interpret it that way. Grandparents would be heartbroken to see you like this. Matthew paused for a few seconds before he continued, “Be more careful when you go out in the future. If you encounter this situation again, ask for help in time.”
Matthew meant that she could contact him.
His thin lips pressed tightly together. He almost wanted to pry open her skull and question why she hadn’t called him during the day.
This remark surprised Valerie, but then she nodded, “Don’t worry, Mr. Grant. I’m not a coward, always avoiding troubles and doing nothing.”
She turned to look at Matthew, who had put down the towel and walked outside by himself.
Valerie was astonished and wondered, Is he angry?
Just then, Matthew came back in, bringing her a cup of warm water.
“Thank you.” Valerie took the cup and sipped it, unaware that if Nolan and Sophia were there, they would be shocked to see Matthew taking care of
someone!
After having a drink, Valerie feh more at ease, leaning against the sofa and looking out the window. The bright moonlight shone in, and she thought of today’s visit to the village, with all the events replaying in her mind like a movie.
Valerie thought about her life, having experienced all kinds of hardships. Today’s scene was nothing compared to the past.
She was calm and didn’t seek trouble, but she was not afraid of it
Thinking of this. Valerie smiled. Matthew looked at her profile, and under the moonlight, Valerie’s silhouette appeared particularly clear.
He had to admit that Valerie was one of the most distinctive–looking women he had ever met, unforgettable at first sight, stunning at first glance. and increasingly attractive the more he looked.
Valerie was able to retreat intact in that situation, facing the online violence, and still remain composed. He couldn’t help but wonder, “What kind of person is she?

Matthew suddenly became curious about what she wanted to do.
He approached Valerie, leaning on the sofa. “Rest early!”
Valerie, trying to drown her sorrows with a drink, took a deep breath after finishing it, revealing a smile.
Matthew wanted to pat her on the head but after a moment’s thought, he let his hand drop. “If there’s anything you can’t solve on your owIL remember to come to me.”
“Got it. Don’t worry. I’m not the kind of fool who doesn’t know how to use good resources!” she said.
Matthew’s face darkened. “So, to her, I’m just a resourcer he thought.
Vaderie was not foolish. She just didn’t want her family’s troubles to involve Matthew, nor did she want him to see those unsightly things…….
She was indeed tired today. After sniffling, she looked at the moonlight outside and leaned on the sofa, still thinking about how to counterattack, but soon fell asleep.
Matthew turned his head to speak but saw that the woman had already fallen asleep, her breathing gradually becoming steady.
He squatted beside her, quietly took the cup from her hand and put it aside, then gently touched her head.
Although it wasn’t the first day he’d known her, he knew she seemed gentle but was strong in character, but he didn’t expect her to be so stubborn!
But in fact, Matthew was not one to meddle in other people’s affairs. He should be relieved that she didn’t ask for his help, but even he didn’t know why he just couldn’t ignore her matters.
His brows slightly furrowed, Matthew’s eyes were soft, something be himself didn’t notice.
thew jolt, his face darkening instantly.
He almost dropped her hack onto the sofa. She must do it on purpose! he wondered.
