Chapter 45 The Trending Topic
After finishing their meal, the four of them split the dinner bill and Tucker took Valerie back to the mud hut.
“Valerie, you were amazing! The food you cooked today was absolutely delicious!”
“You liked to eat, that’s fine.”
The two of them returned to the mud hut and soaked in a comfortable bath with hot water poured from a wooden barrel.
So the two of them lay down on a bed.
Valerie was no longer sleepy all of a sudden...
She stood hesitantly at the edge of the bed, rubbing her hands nervously.
“What’s wrong? You can go to sleep now, it’s already past nine o’clock.”
Tucker wiped his face with a towel and walked toward the bed, looking at Valerie who was still not getting into bed to sleep with
confusion.
“Ah, understood.”
Valerie still pursed her lips and held her breath as she climbed up.
After Tucker saw her go in, he also got on the bed and lay down next to Valerie.
After a tiring day’s journey, everyone was exhausted, Valerie had just
laid down when the heaviness of her eyelids prevented her from dwelling on her embarrassed feelings about sleeping with
Tucker.
She adjusted herself into a comfortable sleeping position, and her breathing began to even out.
Tucker couldn’t really fall asleep, but he was very tired.
He was also experiencing this environment for the first time, and the physical exhaustion did not make him close his eyes
quickly.
The staff also went to the designated location to rest, and the cameras in the house entered standby mode, waiting to resume
work tomorrow morning.
He turned toward Valerie, using the moonlight outside to carefully observe her small face.
Unable to resist, he reached out and poked her cheek, bringing them closer together. He closed his eyelids and fell into a deep
sleep.
Valerie was sleeping, but online, news about Valerie skyrocketed to the top of the trending topics.
The Miss Horton of the Horton family could cook.
“This is the behavior and emotional intelligence of a 7–year–old child.”
What did you do when you were seven years old?
Ms. Horton
Various live video clips about Valerie went viral on the internet.
Valerie’s news spread throughout your school, Ms. Horton.
After the people in the class went home in the evening, they were shown pictures of Ms. Horton by their own parents on their
phones, so that they could recognize what she looked like.
When the children in the class saw that familiar face, they were startled and their faces turned pale.
They stared at Valerie in their phones with wide eyes.
Tacitly, no one said to their parents that Valerie was their classmate.
Sarah’s face turned pale, her limbs felt cold, and her mother suddenly showed her this live broadcast.
It is said that Ms. Horton was inside, and she was looking carefully and attentively, but Valerie’s face caught her eye.
Fear suddenly attacked Sarah.
Valerie hasn’t been coming to school recently. Everyone in the class is saying that she was targeted by someone and bullied to
the point where she can’t attend school.
I didn’t expect to be preparing to participate in a variety show...
Will she always remember the things I used to bully her about in the class?
I dare not tell my family, otherwise they will definitely scold me.
This is also one of the reasons why people in the class did not dare to tell the truth.
Compared to the rest of the classmates in the class, there was unease.
Abbigail’s small group chat buzzed all night.
“What should I do? She turned out to be the Miss of the Horton family?”
“Maybe it was just a joke? Did the production team say it for the sake of ratings?”
“What are you thinking? Would the Horton family allow a stranger to impersonate their child? This variety show has been in
promotion for a long time, claiming to have the Horton family’s heiress. If they had any objections, they would have withdrawn
from this program long ago.”
“What should we do then? We had really beaten her hard, didn’t we?”
Abbigail sat on the edge of the bed, her heart pounding.
Anxiety bit the fingernails!
The legs shook as fast as a motor.
After observing Valerie for so long, how did it suddenly come to light that she was Ms. Horton?
So, after she returned home, were all her injuries seen?
There were still no signs at home.
Dad’s job was still running well.
Abbigail’s confusion instantly grew.
Hasn’t there been any retaliation against their family after all this time?
Did Valerie hide?
She looked at the phone screen, watching the video of her live stream in the morning, her brows furrowing more and more.
She left to watch and joined the Line group chat.
“Don’t talk about this matter. It has been many days and nothing has happened, which means she hasn’t said anything. If
someone exposes it, we urgently need to release the video we recorded carlier, showing her holding a knife.”
I have to say, the curly–haired girl’s calm thinking was still very logical.
The girls in the group were also slightly less panicked.
Video was their last resort.
“Alright, let’s leave it at that. We don’t need to talk about it anymore.”
After Abbigail said this sentence, no one in the group spoke again.
Everyone talked about this matter in private.
Some followers were being cautious and took a screenshot of the group chat.
That night, none of these people could sleep peacefully...
Mica kept watching the video and couldn’t fall asleep for a long time.
After learning that Valerie was Ms. Horton, it brought Mica an immense pressure, like a heavy boulder.
He always thought Valerie was a child from an ordinary family...
Is there a reversal happening now?
Even if he became stronger...
Could he really protect her well?
Mica had a rare sleepless night...
And Derek, from the Fisher family, raised an eyebrow
