You Complete Me novel (Skylar and Coralie)

Chapter 382

"Jasper, I was in the shower just now, and did not hear your call."

Valerie's voice was still sweet and gentle when she answered the phone. It was completely

unnoticeable that her mind was a mess before answering the phone.

"Valerie, I took care of Finley. Don't worry about it. He will not harass you anymore."

Jasper's voice was calm over the phone.

Hearing this, Valerie was taken aback.

If that matter was told to her another day, she would have been elated. However, that day, she had lost

the opportunity to win Skylar over, and her mood fell. She seemed to have nothing to say about this

matter.

Yet, she still answered with a smile, "Really? How did you do that?"

Actually, Valerie was also a little surprised. After all, Finley was a scoundrel. It was not easy for Jasper

to deal with him in such a short amount of time.

"It's nothing, I just placed a person next to Finley, and then I found an excuse to give a bonus to the

security department and let that person drag Finley to gamble. We let him win bit by bit, and when he

was hooked, we let him lose. Sure enough, he borrowed a large amount of money from the loan sharks

and ran away."

"Really?" Valerie asked.

"Yes, I have asked the loan sharks to tell him that they would break his leg if he appeared in A City

again. I've checked; Finley left A City overnight."

"That... That's great."

"Don't worry. If he comes back, I will ask the police to arrest him for gambling. I will not let him harass ConTEent bel0ngs to Nôv(e)lD/rama(.)Org .

you again."

Jasper added as he was worried that Valerie was not assured.

Initially, Valerie was a little worried. Finley had come to blackmail her because he borrowed money

from the loan shark. But now that she heard Jasper's words, her heart was finally at ease.

This way, she was not afraid that Finley would come back.

"Thank you, Jasper. Speaking of which, Skylar and Coralie are engaged now. What about us..."

Valerie understood well that she had no chance with Skylar anymore. Hence, she could not let go of

Jasper, who was also rich and powerful and had tried his best to help her. Valerie also felt that Jasper

was the right candidate.

"Don't worry. My father approves of us. I will choose an auspicious date and go to your house to

propose our marriage. I will not let you wait too long."

Jasper was very happy to hear that Valerie had taken the initiative to discuss their relationship matters.

He did his best to help Valerie, naturally hoping that she would marry him without any worries.

"Yes, Jasper. I will wait for you." In order to make Jasper feel at ease, Valerie added, "In fact, if we do

get married, I can move to B City. You can rest assured about this."

Hearing what Valerie said, Jasper was overjoyed. "Really? Let me assist with the matters you need to

handle when you move to B City. I will make sure everything is done properly."

"Okay, I will wait for you."

Valerie nodded shyly.

After they hung up the phone, Valerie immediately put on a cold expression. She then quickly

blacklisted Finley's number in her mobile phone to prevent him from looking for her.

She did not have many expectations of marrying Jasper. However, she was already 31 years old and

had problems with her legs. She did not have many candidates to choose from.

Of course, Jasper would be the best choice as he was loyal to her.

Thinking of this, Valerie hurried downstairs to inform Amelia and Hector, who were both there.

"Father, Mother, I just talked to Jasper about our marriage, and he said that he would choose a good

day to propose our marriage..."

When Valerie spoke, she deliberately put on a sweet smile on her face. Although it was just an act, it

was more than enough to deceive Amelia and Hector.

When Amelia and Hector heard what Valerie said and saw that she was beaming, they thought that she

was more than willing to get married. They immediately said, "Well, okay, let him come over. He is

welcome at any time."

Of course, they hoped that Valerie could marry Skylar. However, it seemed impossible now. Jasper was

also a good candidate.

Hector had favored Jasper since a long time ago.

"Yes. I'm happy as long as you both approve. Jasper treats me really well..."

Valerie said with a smile.

"That's good to hear. As long as you are willing to marry him, we will definitely approve."

As a mother, it was natural for Amelia to hope that her daughter would be happy. In addition, the Zac

family was very reputable in B City, and Jasper was a good marriage partner. There was no reason for

them to object.

"Then, it is decided. I will head to bed first."

Soon after, Valerie turned around and went upstairs.

Amelia and Hector remained downstairs, happily discussing their daughter's marriage.

When Valerie went upstairs to take a bath and was ready to go to sleep, she suddenly received a text

message.

She did not recognize the number.

When Valerie opened it, it read, "Give me five million dollars! Otherwise, I will turn myself in and tell

others what you instructed me to do in the past. Since I am already like this, I have nothing to fear!"

Although there was no caller ID, Valerie knew that it must be Finley.

In an instant, she was not sleepy anymore.

Valerie was a little regretful now. If she had turned herself in back then, she would probably just lose

some more money at most or maybe be sentenced to probation. But now, she did not know what to do

because Finley was pestering her like a roach.

Valerie had no other ideas, so she sent a screenshot of the message to Jasper.

And followed with a message reading, "Jasper, what should I do?"

Valerie felt that he might not understand her helplessness after sending this, so she sent another

message. "I really have no idea how to deal with this kind of scoundrel. What should I do?"

Jasper's reply came very quickly. "I will think of a way."

While Valerie was replying to Jasper's message, the strange phone number that had just sent the text

message, called. Valerie hesitated for a moment, but she picked it up.

"Miss Rae, five million. Have you prepared it? Hurry up!"

As soon as the phone was connected, Finley's voice could be heard from the other side of the phone.

Valerie could hear that Finley's background was very noisy, and many people were talking.

She clearly heard someone behind him say, "Hey, don't just send the money, it is better to send a girl

here too."

"That's right. Let us have some fun."

That meant that Finley was not alone. He might have run away with other gamblers.

"Finley, even if you force me to death right now, I do not have five million."

Valerie wanted to play it easy first.

However, Finley was desperate, and he could not go back home. Valerie was his only way out, so he

did not care much. "Nonsense! You do not have five million? How can the daughter of the Rae family

not have five million? Who are you kidding? If you don't have the amount, you can ask your husband,

Mr. Zac! Otherwise, I will turn myself in, and things will not look good!"

Valerie knew that Finley might really turn himself in if he was cornered.

She thought for a moment before saying, "Finley, if I'm the wife of Skyton Corporation, I would have

paid you 50 million, let alone five million, but I'm not. Did you know? The president of Skyton

Corporation, Skylar, spent 30 million just to buy a ring for his fiancee yesterday..."

Valerie paused and waited quietly for Finley's answer.
