Chapter 176- Welcome To Kanderton, Mom!
"I’ve been taking tours quite frequently. You name the place, and I was there," in the center of the hallway, Valerie was standing with a small crowd gathered around her.
Whoever was passing by, used to join the crowd. She no longer knew what to do with her time, so she started bragging about the tours she had been taking all these years.
"What places have you been, Mrs. Sinclair?" an employee asked her. Whenever an employee called her Mrs. Sinclair, she felt an odd surge of joy spreading through her veins.
"Oh. I can’t even count them on my fingers. The latest tour I took was across Europe. Paris, Milan, Monte Carlo... there are so many places."
Delinda and Denzel exchanged glances. For the last few days, they haven’t communicated much.
The crowd was listening to her intently, with wide eyes.
"You must have done tons of shopping there. No?" Kate asked her excitedly, "These places are a dream come true for every woman. Especially if one has money," Valerie could see longing in her eyes.
She chuckled, waving her hand, "You are so right, Kate. These places are a shopper’s paradise," lifting her hand, she showed off an exquisite diamond bracelet that caught the light, "I didn’t need to buy this as this was a little something from a friend in Monaco- an absolute gem," She giggled, showing it to everyone, "Don’t you think?"
Peter also leaned in slightly, the admiration was obvious on his face, "That’s incredible. You’ve got one hell of a friend!"
Valerie was quite pleased by the reaction, "You people are talking about shopping and gifts. I want to add one more thing," she gave them a meaningful glance with a smirk, "Celebrities!"
As expected, there were gasps around her.
