Charles seized the opportunity to flatter his boss‘ wife. After happily saying that he ended the call.
However, Valerie, who was on the other end of the line, was stunned.
Lunch box…
It turned out that Mr. Grant had given Mr.
dson the lunch box. Then why did
he lie to her and say that the food in the lunch box was delicious?
Valerie suddenly smelled a faint fragrance. She lowered her head suspiciously and saw Matthew’s coat in the basket beside the washing machine. She smelled a trace of perfume on the coat.
Matthew was a clean freak and did not have the habit of using perfume. This slightly sweet perfume was clearly not his!
Valerie suddenly had a strange emotion…
Mr. Grant gave the lunch box to Mr. Hudson. Valerie wondered, ‘Was it because Mr. Grant was going to have lunch with a beautiful girl?”
“Aiden is tired. Let’s call it a day.”
Behind her, Matthew’s deep and pleasant voice sounded. At the same time, he stood up and walked toward her.
Valerie immediately came back to her senses and almost subconsciously put the coat back into the laundry basket. When Matthew walked behind her, she handed his phone over as if nothing had happened. “Mr. Grant, Mr. Hudson called just now. I thought this was my phone and accidentally answered the call. I’m really
sorry.”
Matthew glanced at the call log. The call lasted just ten seconds. He knew that this was indeed a misunderstanding. “It’s fine. I’ll call him back later.”
Valerie nodded. Seeing that Aiden had already packed his small bag, she immediately said, “Thank you for teaching Aiden. Have a good rest now. I’ll send Aiden home.”

Matthew reached for his coat and said, “I’ll drive
you back.”
Valerie quickly waved her hand. “No need. The traffic is bad at this time of the night. It’s more convenient for me to send him b
on my scooter. Mr. Grant,
have a good rest.”
Matthew frowned slightly. He felt that Valerie was avoiding him.
However, before he could say anything, Valerie had already walked to the entrance. She took the two helmets and quickly brought Aiden downstairs.
The temperature of the late autumn night was already a little low. There was a cover over the scooter to block the strong wind. Along the way, Aiden kept talking about things and was extremely happy as he had the chance to learn how to play the piano. However, Valerie seemed to befuddled.
When they reached Clutvale Estate, Aiden got down from the scooter and said a little aggrievedly, “Valerie, you were not listening to me…”
Valerie came back to her senses and quickly apologized to Aiden. As he was a simple–minded child, he became happy again after a few words of coaxing. At this moment, Julian came downstairs to bring Aiden home.
After watching the father and son go upstairs, she couldn’t help but sigh. She didn’t expect that even Aiden could see that she was distracted. Indeed, all she could think about just now was the perfume on the coat.
She was confused as she did not understand why Matthew lied to her. He told her that he ate the food in the lunch box. However, he gave the lunch box to Charles and went on a lunch date with another girl.
However, what troubled her even more was that when she realized that Matthew was dating another girl, her first reaction was to pretend that she did not notice it!
After all, they were just married for the time being, and he was not her real husband. If he liked another woman, she had no right to bother and would not bother. Therefore, it did not matter even if she exposed him. But why did Valerie not expose him at that time? She even felt a little guilty and pretended that nothing had happened.
Valerie was puzzled by her actions.

Chapter 113
She was thinking about something and rode the scooter very slowly. It was almost eleven o’clock when she arrived home.
Usually, at this time, Matthew would have already returned to his room to sleep. Valerie quietly opened the door, but she did not expect Matthew to be sitting on the couch in the living room. When he heard the door open, he looked at her.
Matthew said, “You’re back.”
He was wearing silk pajamas and had already showered. He wore rimless glasses and held a book in his hand.
The main lights in the living room were not switched on, except for the floor–to- ceiling lamp beside the couch. Matthew’s legs were crossed, and he held a book in one hand and rested his forehead on the other casually. He looked very handsome and refined.
“Mr. Grant, why aren’t you sleeping yet?”
Matthew closed the book naturally and said, “I’m waiting for you.”
Valerie’s heart skipped a beat. The man’s deep voice and the dim light reminded her of that chaotic night. It seemed like vo
