Revenge In Repose (Valerie and Aiden) novel Chapter 214

Chapter 214

Five days had passed, and Valerie was now able to get in and out of bed by herself. As long as she avoided any sudden movements, she could manage her normal daily activities without much trouble.

Valerie had just picked up a call from Kelly. Caught off guard, she twisted her waist again and winced in pain, Still, she managed to steady her voice and said, “Kelly, don’t cry. Just tell me where you are right now.”

On the other end of the phone, Kelly was sobbing uncontrollably. “Valerie, why did he do this to me? I can’t accept it, I really, really can’t!”

Valerie rubbed her temples at the incessant sobbing. “Kelly, what’s going on?”

Kelly choked out between sobs, “He’s absolutely determined to break up with me… and he said…” She gasped for breath. “The only reason he was ever with me was because Renata told him to. He never loved me. Never… not even once…”

By this point, Kelly was sobbing so hard she could barely speak. “Then what did he mean every time he said he loved me? Was he just sweet–talking me every time we were intimate? Valerie, why did I have to meet someone like this… why…” Her voice dissolved into fresh sobs.

“Come over to my place,” Valerie said with a headache.

Kelly continued to sob, her voice breaking as she choked out, “Even with Renata’s face ruined like that… why does Angelo still like her? What on earth

does she have that I don’t?”

It took Valerie a great deal of coaxing and persuading to finally get Kelly to come over.

Kelly was still crying pitifully, and it took a lot of patient coaxing and comforting from Valerie before she finally managed to calm her down.

Given her state, she didn’t dare go home, so she ended up staying at Valerie’s.

Clutching his doll, Timothy watched the unfamiliar woman cry, and soon found himself sobbing along with her.

Seeing the little guy burst into tears, Kelly actually smiled. She scooted closer and started playing with building blocks with him.

When Aiden returned home, he found them, both with red noses and teary eyes, taking turns stacking building blocks, occasionally breaking into playful arguments over where each piece should go.

Timothy said, “No, that’s not how you build it!”

“What do you mean it’s not right?” Kelly teased. “What do you know, kid? This is exactly how it’s done, see how perfectly it fits!”

“No way! This one goes down here!” the child insisted.

Kelly insisted, “If you put it at the bottom, it won’t stay put! It definitely goes on top, trust me on this!”

Still looking doubtful, Timothy watched as Kelly placed the block on top, “See? Was I right?” Kelly asked with a triumphant smile.

Timothy Star exclaimed, “Wow! You’re so awesome!”

Kelly was practically bursting with pride, grinning from ear to ear. “See? Told you I’m amazing! And that’s not all, I’ve got more tricks up my sleeve Wanna see?”

Timothy exclaimed, “Yes! Show me!”

Valerie and Aiden were speechless.

Valerie winced as she pushed herself apologies.”

Alden raised an eyebrow. “Coming to Reano City?”

Jack and Colette were nothing like Aiden’s parents.

Due to health reasons, Aiden’s father never participated in the corporate power struggles of the Walker family business. As a result, he held little swayin the family hierarchy. It wasn’t until Aiden firmly established himself in the company that his father’s status gradually rose.

As for the Shelton family, Jack had retired and was now completely hands–off with family affairs.

In a flash, Aiden pieced it all together. “Then it all comes down to how sincere they are,” he said.

Jeana had planned to return to Reano City today to pick up her child, but heavy rains where she was staying caused all transportation to be suspended, forcing her to delay her trip by another day.

So, that night, Kelly ended up spending the night at Valerie’s place, cuddling Timothy as they slept.

Timothy was so soft and cuddly that Kelly’s maternal instincts went into overdrive. She planted two big kisses on him and cooed, “Timothy, how come you’re this adorable!”

Star giggled, “Because I look just like Mommy!”

“Do you like me?” Kelly teased.

“Yes!” Timothy planted a kiss on Kelly’s cheek and said in his sweet, childish voice, “I love you the most!”

Kelly’s heart absolutely melted. She snuggled with him under the covers and slept soundly through the night. The next morning, she eagerly took him out to buy toys.

Valerie had been worried that Kelly might break down and cry in front of the child all night, but it turned out she was overthinking it. Seeing how well they got along, Kelly actually seemed to be in good spirits. She picked up a sandwich for Timothy and said softly, “Be careful, it’s hot.”

Timothy carefully took the bun and nibbled at it, looking so heart–meltingly cute that Kelly couldn’t help but like him even more. After making sure he was full, she took him to the mall.

After buying Timothy a whole pile of toys, Kelly took him to the kids‘ play zone.

Star had the time of his life, and by the end, he was completely worn out.

“Kelly?” A familiar voice rang out, thick with disbelief and mockery. “What are you doing here? Weren’t you just dumped by your boyfriend? Didn’t expect to see you out having fun so soon.”
