Marrying The Supposed Gold Digger (Valerie)

atherine’s heart suddenly skipped a beat. “Valerie, do you think this guy even has a heart? Luckily, Ashley isn’t some saint herself. They’re just etting what they deserve. If I had known he was this scummy, I would’ve taken action sooner.”

With her family’s influence, dealing with Caleb, even killing him, wouldn’t be a problem. Katherine truly regretted not acting when she had the hance.

Just wait and see. If Ashley gets dumped, she won’t let it slide. This was a woman who could even bear to deal with her own son,

alerie spoke coldly, relishing the upcoming drama. She instructed Julian to keep an eye on Caleb so they could respond promptly to any changes.

lowever, at this time, neither Katherine nor Valerie could foresee that Caleb was more ruthless than they imagined. They only intended to make Caleb dump Ashley, to teach her a lesson, but Caleb had a more sinister plan.

Calvert chuckled as he answered Caleb’s call. “Caleb, we have a deal. If you try t

y to deceive me…”

Relax, Calvert. This time, you’ll be satisfied. She’s had a child, but she’s young and pretty, just a bit fiery”

‘No worries. Even the most fiery person will obey me. Just bring her to me, and we’ll split the profits” Calvert laughed before hanging up.

Caleb pocketed his phone and, on a whim, bought some snacks and beer.

With these, he could ensure Ashley would comply..

Determined, Caleb decided Ashley had to disappear. The past affection was tossed aside,

If Katherine couldn’t stand seeing him with another woman, then he had to solve this once and for all. Especially since this wretched Ashley dared to interfere with his plans, he would never let her go easily.

Ashley, having left the hotel, returned to the inn. Fuming she started packing, intending to leave. However, remembering the money Caleb owed her, she felt indignant. Had she known Caleb was this kind of person, she wouldn’t have given him access to her bank card. No matter what, she had to get her money back first.

The money she had saved was all from her secret stash accumulated while she was with Julian. She had to get it back.

Waiting for Caleb to return, Ashley grew angrier with each passing minute. She thought about how he had fawned over that woman today… Caleb had never treated her like that, despite claiming to love her. She felt like tearing his heart apart

Just then, the door of the inn creaked open, and Caleb walked in.

The moment she saw him, Ashley exploded. She charged at him, hinting and clawing. “You bastard! How dare you come back! Give me my money!”

Caleb grabbed her with one hand. “Stop it, Ashley. If I hadn’t done that today, the investment would have definitely failed.”

He had already prepared his excuse on the way over.

Ashley paused, confused. “What do you mean? Being with that woman is an investment! Don’t try to fool me. I’ve seen that woman before. She’s Valerie’s friend and works at the car dealership. What money could she possibly have?”

Caleb laughed. “She has more money than you can imagine. Ever heard of the Santos Group from Kranson City? She’s the third daughter of the Santos family, a bona fide heiress. If you don’t believe me, go check it out yourself. Santos Group is a big company, I didn’t lie.”

“Really?” Ashley was stunned. She had never imagined Katherine had such a background. She had assumed Katherine was just another gold digger or that she wore fake designer goods. But it turned out she was genuinely wealthy.

At the same time, Ashley felt a surge of resentment. The disparity between people was so great. She couldn’t accept it. And Valerie was friends with

such an heiress!

Caleb continued, “Ashley, I’ve told you before, I have to go wherever the clients want me to. That woman is truly an investor. She promised to make me a top influencer. We were negotiating well, but you barged in. I said those things in the heat of the moment to calm her down. How else was I supposed to appease her?“.

Ashley was taken aback. “You… you mean it? But you said you’d love her forever, and you even…”

Caleb sighed. “Are you that naive? I had to make her believe I was sincere. These wealthy women are the toughest to handle. They play all sorts of games. Today was exhausting for me…

“But she said I’m ambitious and willing to go all out. She wants to invest in me and create a new ID for me. We were just about to close the deal.

“I didn’t expect you’d come over and cause a scene. Do you know how close we were to losing it? I had to beg the big boss afterward, pleading to ger another chance.”

Ashley, still doubtful, furrowed her brows. “Did I really ruin your chance?”

“What do you think? If it weren’t for you bursting in, we could have secured even more investment. But now, share in half. I don’t need your 10 thousand dollars anymore. It’s useless now. Here, take it back.”

of you, the big boss cut my

Caleb pulled out the card and shoved it into Ashley’s hand impatiently.

His straightforwardness made Ashley start to believe him, especially since it w

was about money.

She immediately panicked. “No, Caleb, it’s all my fault. Please forgive me. I don’t want the money. Can you talk to the big boss again, please?” Anyone with a bit of sense could see Caleb’s story had holes.

But when two greedy people meet, reason went out the window. Ashley, being even more foolish than Caleb, never suspected it was all a ploy.
