Chapter 12 Her Family

What Valerie had done silenced the class,

Open–mouthed and unbelievable, they looked at the scene in front of them.

Someone sighed.

The students were all shocked.

But in order not to wake up Derck, they could only secretly communicate.

“Who is she? Why is Demogorgon so nice to her? And he even lent her his textbooks.”

“When we borrowed pens from him, he would glare at us.”

“Does she have a special identity? Why else is Demogorgon so kind to her?”

Surrounded by girls, a little girl with long hair, a cute face, and big eyes looked at Valerie.

Her childish eyes flashed with hostility toward Valerie.

But it was quickly hidden.

In front of the crowd, she got up and came to Valerie’s side, giving a friendly smile.

“Hi, my name is Sarah Hoyle. I’m 7 years old. My family owns the biggest mall in Capstead. What does your family do?”

Valerie thought, “She came with ill intentions.”

She glanced at Sarah and looked away, intending to give a perfunctory answer.

“Well, our family just runs a company.”

The Horton Group was indeed a company, yet there were hundreds of companies under it.

Valerie wasn’t lying.

Sarah’s face, however, turned puzzled.

She thought about Valerie’s answer.

Sarah had thought Valerie was from the Horton family that her dad always mentioned.

But due to the way Valerie was dressed and her answer just now, Sarah got confused.

Sarah glanced at Derek, who was sleeping with his head on the desk.

She was going to move on to the next question.

“By the way, when did you buy the clothes you’re wearing? I have clothes from the same collection, but my mom said this collection was a little outdated, so she bought me new ones… Your mom didn’t buy new clothes for you?”

Valerie thought, “What a young hypocrite!

She is so shrewd at this age.

She’s promising.”

But that had nothing to do with Valerie.

She smiled at Sarah and replied “kindly“.
