Chapter 73 Can't Go Back

• (1) In addition to Derek, who was preparing dinner for Valerie, there were also Ramona and her son. The other three people exchanged glances and silently left the room, giving him space. “Grandfather…” Calvin lowered his tone, he had just gotten so close, it was not intentional at all. He really didn’t expect Valerie to be scared. In Galen’s mind, recalling the video of Valerie being beaten, he glared at Calvin with displeasure. “Did you also watch her live stream? Can’t you pay a little attention?” “Was…” This time, Calvin had nothing to say.
• He obediently lowered his head and admitted his mistake, accepting Galen’s scolding. Lamar tapped Galen’s shoulder. “Okay, Dad, Calvin didn’t mean to do it.” The three of them fell into silence once again. “You guys should take good care of her next. Oh, by the way, we don’t have any clothes for a little girl at home. I’ll go and check now, and buy some. After that, all of you should be careful not to scare her, okay?” Galen had been thinking about this matter for a long time. He had already been pondering over this question while having dinner.
• The clothes at home were all for boys, and there were only clothes for daughters–in–law in women’s clothing, which Valerie couldn’t wear. Now he didn’t waste a moment and went with the butler to pick out beautiful clothes for Valerie. Valerie drank two bowls of porridge with side dishes, under the gaze of a crowd. Derek stared at her as she sipped the drink in small sips. He held a piece of white paper in his hand, folding it in half and fanning it toward the large bowl of white porridge, repeatedly. He didn’t want her to get burned. Tucker occasionally glanced at Derek standing beside him, his eyes filled with a hint of surprise. But it quickly subsided. At home, the only person I had a good relationship with was Derek. The two individuals had different conditions, but the situations were similar.
