“That. That's nonsense! Why will I throw myself at you? You're not Corbyn Cirillo." She bellowed, her face reddening in fury. She doesn't even know that he'll be in the club last night, or else she'll have fled immediately. 
 
That bastard had pretended to help her last night, but he had turned out to be the wolf, even though she mentioned the Cirillo family. How dare he accuse her wrongly?

 
Maverick's lips drew into a line, and his black eyes turned cold. This silly woman had left the country through the Cirillo family’s influence, and she also mentioned Corbyn Cirillo last night. It can't be that she hooked up with that madman, can it?
 
"From the Vandenberg to the Cirillo. Valencia Caesar, you're really daring what won't you do?" He sneered. 
 
She had even gone out to meet Mr. Hunt late in the night. After hiding from him for six years, he didn't believe that the woman's pure motivation was just to see Mr. Hunt. She must have asked around and known about his visit!

 
Valencia's heart clenched with pain, and her naked body shook with anger. Although she was determined to break off with this jerk completely, hearing him diminish her worth still sent pain coursing through her. Her heart clenched with pain.
 
Despite the ache that engulfed her, Valencia was determined not to reveal a hint of pain in his presence. 

 
"Maverick Vandenberg, are you crazy? Are you calling me a whore?" She seethed, her eyes glinting with fury. It's enough that he and his lover ridiculed her online now he dared to indirectly call her a whore?
 
Soon, her expression changed. After all, she's just a worthless substitute to him she's not Tatiana, so her feelings don't matter to him.
 
Upon seeing her fury, Maverick's heart clenched slightly. However, his deadpan expression didn't change instead, it changed to solemnity. "Where were you after you escaped the wedding?" Maverick wanted to know where that bastard hid this silly woman!
 
Valencia glared at him. He kidnapped her beyond her wish, called her a whore, and now he tried to ask for her hideout. Does he think she was that naive girl from years ago? She'll be a fool if she tells him!
 
She sneered coldly, "Why should I tell you? Also, that's not a wedding. It's a contract I'm not interested in signing. Simple!" She yelled, only to receive a calm and blasé expression from him. 
 
Valencia felt a chill run down her spine upon seeing his unperturbed gaze. Maverick can be exceptionally wicked, ruthless, and heartless. And now that she was in his palm, she was afraid that he'd do something crazy. After all, she had made a joke of Maverick back then, in front of the whole world.
 
Although Valencia was shivering inwardly, she tried to stick out her chest bravely and keep a calm front. "I'm telling you, I'm Corbyn Cirillo’s wife you better let me go now. You and my husband don't see eye to eye, do you?" Even though Valencia was lying through her teeth, her expression was calm, and there were no traces of lying on her face. Her acting could deserve an award at that moment!
 
Valencia knew how crazy Maverick was, and the last thing she'd want was to be locked down here by Maverick, causing her kids to become worried about her whereabouts.
 
Maverick's eyes flashed with coldness immediately after he heard Valencia's words and her smooth way of calling Corbyn her husband. He towered over her and grabbed her chin harshly.
 
"You've gotten married to Corbyn?" Corbyn is Maverick's enemy and one whom he detests—it's a mutual feeling. He hadn't realized that not only did the woman escape through the Cirillo family’s influence, she had even hooked up with him and become his wife. No wonder he couldn't find her. She really had the gut!
 
Despite the pain that was tearing through Valencia, she gritted her teeth and raised her chin proudly. It's better that he gets infuriated to death and releases her. "Haven't you gotten together with your Tatiana? What? You suddenly realized that you never liked her all these years, and you liked me instead?" She inquired with a gloating tone however, there were traces of seriousness if one looked deep into her eyes. 
 
"In your dream," Maverick spat out coldly, causing her heart to turn cold. He was so furious that he released his tight hold on Valencia's chin. 
 
Upon hearing Maverick's reply, Valencia's heart clenched with pain, but seeing his expression filled with anger, she feigned nonchalance, raised her chin cockily, and gloated at him.
 
A glint flashed past his eyes upon seeing the woman's gloating and nonchalant expression. Long ago, he was the only man in her eyes, but now she can't wait to dump him for Corbyn Cirillo. Anger coursed through him immediately, and he leaned forward to bite her lips hard.
  
“Ahhh!” Valencia cried out in pain because of Maverick's cruel actions, her lips bleeding due to the impact. Even though she wanted to stretch her hand to push the man away, her tied hands restrained her from doing so.
 
However, Maverick is indifferent despite Valencia's pain and scream, and he only lets her go when he wants. He stood straight, his bewitching lips stained red due to the blood that broke past Valencia's lips, which he licked immediately!
 
Valencia sucked in a cold breath. "Maverick Vandeberg, have you gone crazy?" She cried out angrily and glared at him.
