Revenge In Repose (Valerie and Aiden) novel Chapter 225

Chapter 225

After thinking it over, Kelly called Lennox.

Lennox had just settled into bed, ready to finally get some sleep, when his phone jolted him awake again.

Lennox thought to himself, ‘If it were the boss calling, fine. But of course, it had to be his little sister, that high–maintenance diva!

Lennox took a deep breath to compose himself, then promptly answered the call. “Miss Walker,”

Kelly yelled, frantic with anger, “Lennox, check the surveillance for my brother’s presidential suite right now! That bitch Sydney Skinner sneaked into Aiden’s room! Find out when she got in and what the hell she did. Goddamn it, I’m so pissed!”

Even through the phone, Lennox could feel Kelly’s volcanic rage. He quickly pieced together the situation from her words, his expression turning grave. “Understood,” he replied curtly.

Lennox kept it short and fast.

With that, he hung up.

At this moment, Kelly couldn’t shake off those revolting scenes she’d just witnessed. They kept replaying in her mind. The more she thought about it, the

more nauseated she felt.

After calling for room service, Kelly stormed into the only untouched room among the three.

Without hesitation, Sydney marched straight back to the room she’d just left.

Sydney thought bitterly, ‘Of course, Aiden isn’t here. He probably just doesn’t want to take responsibility for me, so he sent that airhead Kelly instead, right?

‘It’s fine. I’ve got plenty of ways to make him own up to it!‘

Aiden and Valerie remained blissfully unaware of the chaos unfolding back at the hotel.

When they awoke, daylight was streaming brightly through the windows.

Valerie woke up to Aiden’s kiss.

Seeing his sweetheart wake up, Aiden chuckled softly and teased, “Guess what? It’s my birthday today.”

Valerie felt speechless.

Aiden paused briefly, then gave her another quick peck on the cheek before shifting gears. “So, where’s my present? The one you bought me, disappear to?”

where’d it

It suddenly dawned on Valerie that she couldn’t remember where Aiden’s gift had gone. ‘Did I leave it at that street stall last night?‘ she wondered

anxiously.

Seeing her reaction, Aiden’s lips tightened. He gripped her chin firmly, his voice low and tense. “Don’t tell me you gave it to that guy?”

Valerie shot him an annoyed glare, clearly not in the mood to deal with him. She turned to leave, but Aiden swiftly pulled her back.

Aiden’s expression darkened slightly. “So, did I guess right?”

Valerie snapped, “Leave me alone!”

Aiden sneered, “Too lazy to deal with me, or just too scared? So now, because of him, you don’t want me anymore?”

Valerie, provoked once again, shouted angrily, “Stop being so filthy–minded, Aident You disgust me, that’s why I don’t want you. Happy now?

Aiden held her firmly, trying to calm her down before saying, “That woman was in cahoots with my assistant. I had no idea when she shoved up. Batry, i never lie to you.”

Valerie’s heart wavered just a little.

“I’ll pull up the surveillance footage for you. Come on, let’s do it right now,” Aiden said urgently, “When I walked in and saw that trash, I turned around and left immediately. Then Kelly called me, and that’s how I knew you were here… Please, trust me, I swear.”

Valerie felt even more wronged, tears streaming down her face as she struggled to keep her composure. “So what if I believe you? You don’t even trust me…” she choked out, her voice trembling with hurt.

Aiden’s heart melted at her tears. Gently wiping them away, he murmured, “I believe you. Don’t cry.”

Valerie’s tears streamed down uncontrollably. She shoved him away fiercely, swung off the bed, and started dressing herself, refusing any help.
