Once an heiress with everyone at her beck and call, Valerie lost everything after a single revelation. Six years later, Valerie is back to marry the 'poor' man her five years old daughter, Ruby has chosen to be her daddy. In the process, Valerie seeks to reclaim all that belongs to her and also to exact revenge on her enemies. What Valerie didn't see coming was that she would unlock a pandora box of secrets that would throw her and her daughter's life into more chaos. Greg Sinclair, the highly sought-after young billionaire, pretended to be a poor construction worker in order to become a part of Valerie and Ruby's lives. When he finally wins their trust, will he be able to hold his ground or will he be kicked out by both mother and daughter when his identity is revealed?
Valerie's laughter was music to Greg's ears, easing his tension. "I think that's the nicest thing anyone's said about me, Ms. Trisha."
"Here's my card," Ms. Trisha said, extending a sleek, silver business card holder. "I'd love to discuss business."
Before Valerie could take the card, Greg snatched it and tucked it in his suit. "See you later, Trisha. We have other guests to welcome." Saying that, Greg turned to Valerie, his eyes gleaming with possessiveness.
He took off his suit jacket and draped it over her shoulders, the fabric enveloping her like a protective shield. "The air is cold. You should wear something thicker."
The air wasn't cold enough to require a jacket.
Valerie sensed his jealousy and couldn't help but giggle. Standing in front of him, she leaned in and sealed his lips, her kiss soft and reassuring.
Greg's tension melted away, replaced by desire. He deepened the kiss, his arms wrapping around her waist.
