Valeria didn't sleep well that night as she had been having nightmares.In her dreams, people bullied her, so she cried helplessly to no avail.

Valeria felt a hand wiping away her tears gently in a daze.She felt like she had found something to lean on.

It was like the hand was her support system and she was nestling in his arms.

William smiled when he saw she was onto his arm and he refused to let go.

He lowered his head and gently kissed Valeria's face.

She reached out to hug his waist and nestled in his arms.

Soon, she fell asleep again.

The next morning, Valeria opened her eyes and she felt that something was wrong.

Her head seemed to be buried under something.

She stiffly raised her head, and what came into her sight was a magnified handsome face William looked at her with a gentle smile, "You're awake?"

Valeria looked at William in a daze.

After a while, she came to her senses and she pushed William away.

William extended his arm and pulled Valeria back.

She then struggled hard, "Don't touch me! William Howard!"

"My love, I know why you're angry.It's because you saw me at the Howard Group's entrance while arguing with Elizabeth right?"

"How do you know that?"

"A little birdy told me,’ William held Valeria's waist tightly, "I can explain, listen to me"

"Okay, I'll give you a chance to explain! Let go of me and talk properly!"

"Well, you have to promise me to not get angry.I'll tell you everything."

"Okay!"

William let go of Valeria and reached out his hand to touch his head.

William was no longer care-free and suave, instead, he looked a little awkward.
