The Real Legacy Was Heartbreak novel Chapter 17

Chapter 17

Time quickly came to the evening, Valerie was busy dealing with work when the phone suddenly rang.

She glanced at the incoming call display, saw it was an unfamiliar number, and immediately hung up and blocked it.

In no time, another new unfamiliar number called in, Valerie frowned and hung up his phone again.

The next second, a new message entered the phone.

“Valerie, I have limited patience. If you hang up on me again, I will make sure your company disappears from now on.

Valerie knew that Raymond had this ability, so she could only answer his incoming calls.

“I was downstairs at your company, come down to see me.”

Valerie frowned and still wanted to resist.

“Raymond, we are over, can you let me go?”

“If you don’t come down, I’ll come find you. It’s been so long since I’ve seen you, I really miss you.”

Raymond spoke lightly, his meaning clear – he was not willing to let Valerie go.

Valerie had never expected Raymond to be so difficult. Feeling a bit overwhelmed, she had no choice but to go downstairs. As soon as she reached the first floor, she saw Jasper lounging on the sofa.

Seeing her, Jasper got up and walked over.

“If you don’t want to go, then don’t go.”

communicating with Jasper. Having dealt with major companies for years, he quickly recognized Jasper as the young master of the Kaufman Group. His face darkened as he walked up to them.

“Valerie, what were you talking about?”

Valerie saw Raymond and her face turned extremely ugly.

Jasper pulled her into his arms and said with a smile, “Of course we were talking about things that couples should talk about.”

Raymond’s face changed drastically. “What do you mean, are you two together?”

Valerie was surprised and looked up at Jasper in astonishment.

Jasper raised an eyebrow and smiled as he asked her, “Valerie, didn’t you tell your son about us dating?”

Without waiting for Valerie’s response, he continued on his own: “Since that’s the case, it’s not too late to say it now, Mr. Hibben. Your stepmother and I are in a romantic relationship, so you can call me father from now on.”
