Marrying The Supposed Gold Digger (Valerie)

Known for his cunning nature, Dylan often took those bottom performers on business trips with him. After all, the winner took all in sales. The top performers got rewarded, while the trailing ones faced penalties or even got axed.

When Dylan went on a business trip, it was like he was holding the sales in his hand, and whoever went with him got to split half of those sales spots. He used this trick to coax a fair number of rookies who didn’t know the tricks of sales to travel with him.

While at the company, he could barely pass as a decent person. But once outside with just two or three subordinates, he quickly started pawing at them. As a seasoned pro at this, he always managed to escape without leaving any evidence. Many girls had either resigned in despair or endured in silence for this.

Well, there was still someone like Isabel, who had gone on a business trip with him and ended up in his bed.

Valerie knew that Dylan would definitely be seeking revenge on her during this trip, with harassment or something worse. Even if she had precautions, there was a natural disparity in strength between men and women. She couldn’t afford to wait until something happened to regret it. Besides, she didn’t need his bit of sales anyway.

So, she reminded him with a fake smile, “I’m off tomorrow and the day after. Mr. Hart, you should find someone else.”

Being rejected, Dylan instantly turned grim. “From what I know, you come from the countryside, unmarried, and the most laid–back in our department. Valerie, I never thought you would ever slack off!”

“Oh, what a bummer, Mr. Hart…” If it were any other day, Valerie might have argued with him. But not today. She gave a slight smile, then raised her hand, revealing the diamond ring on her right ring finger.

“You’re married?” Dylan frowned.

“Yes, just a few days ago. That’s why I’ve been so busy at home,” Valerie responded calmly. At the same time, she subtly warned Dylan to get his dirty thoughts in check–she was now taken.

It was evident Dylan didn’t expect this. He was upset by the rejection and even more annoyed and ashamed now, seething with anger toward Valerie.

Last time, Valerie’s letter of complaint made Mr. Grant take notice. He had thought that Valerie either knew Mr. Grant personally or had some other powerful connections, so he had been quite polite to her. But no news had come out of the headquarters after so many days. He thought he had overestimated Valerie and the letter must have been just a coincidence.

Now that it was confirmed that Valerie had no backing, Dylan had nothing to worry about. With old and new scores piling up, he pondered, ‘So what if she’s getting married? She got Isabel fired, so she’ll just offer herself to me as compensation. If she refuses, she can just get lost!‘

With this thought in mind, Dylan slammed the table hard, directing his accusation straight at Valerie. “Valerie, this deal is crucial for the company. No one else can handle it but you and me. Besides, I’m your superior, so this is an order. If you don’t take my orders seriously, I don’t think you are suitble for Arcton Cars!”

The office instantly tensed up as everyone was caught off guard. This is property © NôvelDrama.Org.

In order to force Valerie to give in, Dylan played the card of his superior status and invoked Arcton Cars as an excuse, implying that if Valerie didn’t comply, she would have to leave.

Valerie’s expression instantly turned cold.

Katherine was even angrier. She couldn’t hold it in and was about to stand up to scold Dylan on Valerie’s behalf, but Valerie stopped her.

She couldn’t let Katherine take the heat for her. Besides, she was no longer planning to swallow her pride and endure this. She stood up, her face still bearing the same poised smile, yet the smile was somewhat frigid. “I have worked at Arcton Cars for three years. It’s a great company. Unfortunately, some staff aren’t exactly good eggs. Since that is the case, I do not intend to stay…”

“Valerie!” Katherine was taken aback.

Not only she but the other colleagues were also shocked. After all, everyone had witnessed what Valerie was capable of. Now that Valerie was being forced to leave, their future wouldn’t be easy either. Everyone immediately urged Valerie to reconsider.

On the other hand, when Dylan heard this, a smug smile crept onto his lips. “If she wants to leave, let her go. Anyone who stops her is going against

me!”

Since he couldn’t directly go against Valerie, getting her to leave was the next best solution. Of course, Valerie could also stay.

“However, Valerie, let me give you some advice. It’s hard to find a job out there these days. If you change your mind and want to stay, it’s not impossible. As long as you apologize to me and follow my arrangements, I can forgive you…” Dylan’s eyes narrowed, filled with wickedness, indicating he still harbored ulterior motives.

2:43 PM

Although Valerie always got on his nerves, there was no denying that she was way prettier and hotter than Isabel. She might come from a backwater place, but she always carried an inexplicable air of nobility that made Dylan crave to conquer her.

Dylan had been harboring desires for her for a long time, and he was already scheming in his head. As long as he could take her to a strange place, he naturally had ways to take her down.

His dirty fantasies continued to run wild as he cast unbridled calculations toward Valerie. However, footsteps sounded outside the door at that moment. The receptionist lady rushed in, causing Dylan to frown in displeasure. “What’s the matter?”

“Mr. Hart, someone from the headquarters of Noria Group is here!” the receptionist stuttered.
