Marrying

Chapter 10



Valerie was totally caught off guard. She had been up to her neck these days and completely forgot she was married to Matthew. But to think about it, she only married that gay to appease Julian and his wife, and also, she needed someone she could rely on since she was pregnant. But after they got registered, the reality of the situation had just slipped her mind. So when he came to her with these domestic plans, Valerie felt a heavy pang of

and 

“Well, Mr. Grant, I was going to talk to you about this,” she said, inhaling deeply. “You don’t have to do this rause I won’t he bugging you soon. It’ll be even better if we can go on living our own lives. If it bothers you so much, we can get a divorce after a few months.” 

I just need some support during the pregnancy. Plus, I don’t have to marry the man Mom forced me to marry now. I’ve thought about it. When the due date is around the comer, I will divorce him and tell Julian it doesn’t work out. He will buy the story, Valerie thought to herself 

Upon hearing what she said. Matthew grabbed her shoulders and leaned in towards her. Valerie was caught completely off guard. His tall frame cast a looming shadow over her petite 34” stature, making her feel uncharacteristically small and delicate, 

He leaned to her and whispered in her ear, his voice cold and authoritative. Let me make this very clear to you. We are married, and you are obligated to fulfill your duties as my wife. You will not be getting a divorce unless I explicitly agree to it. And even if I do, I will not be giving up a single dime of what is rightfully mine. This situation is a bit more complicated than you seem to think. The world doesn’t always bend to your will” 

Valerie feit devastated as Matthew’s words hit her. Stunned, she realized she had underestimated him and messed with the wrong guy. 

More importantly, Matthew had just threatened to take everything that was his if they got a divorce. Valerie’s face turned pale, and she couldn’t help but think in fear, “Thank god I didn’t tell him about the baby. What if he finds out and wants to take my baby away!! 

“Look, I’m not about to waste my life with someone I don’t love. So if I still feel nothing for you after six months, Fm divorcing you for sure. But in the meantime, you better be a damn good wife. And if I ever catch you stepping out on me, you’re gonna be sorry.” Matthew declared, his eyes narrowing with suspicion. 

In his mind. Matthew was utterly convinced that a gold digger like Valerie was just biding her time, waiting for the chance to leave him for a richer This is the property of Nô-velDrama.Org.

He loosened his tie with his slender, bony fingers and gazed at her absentmindedly. He was never a good guy, and he hated being threatened. The fact that Valerie had essentially forced him into this marriage, and then was bold enough as to block him on WhatsApp, had only served to stoke the flames of his rage. 

Okay, so she’s playing some kind of game here. Well, two can play at that. It’s been a while since I’ve had this much fun. Just wait until she can’t keep up the charade anymore – that’s when I’ll drop the bomb and tell her Fm the president of the Grant Group. Can’t wait to see the look on her face, Matthew thought, a surprising expectation coursing through him 

He thought Valerie would be infuriated after hearing his words, but to his surprise, Valerie seemed pretty damn relieved about the whole thing. At this time, she was over there, thinking to herself, Well, I’m already a month pregnant. In half a year, the baby will be seven months old. As long as 1 can keep this belly of mine under wraps, he’ll be none the wiser about the little one!
