Chapter 22 She's Used to a Poor Life(2)
In a daze, Reyna quickly ran to the dining room, but there was no one in it.
"Why isn't she here?"
Reyna didn't feel sleepy anymore. She walked to Valerie's room.
Reyna stood in front of the door and walked back and forth nervously, not sure whether to open Valerie's door or not.
Reyna still quietly opened the door and cautiously poked her head inside.
It was dark inside.
But she wasn't there...
"Valerie..."
Reyna looked at the room in disappointment.
She felt the room was cold.
Reyna got up quite early today. Reyna thought that she could see Valerie and then sent her to school.
Two days of getting up early almost killed Reyna.
"Forget it. A child should be independent. Let Valerie go to school by herself. The butler will pick her up anyway."
Reyna yawned and quickly went back to her room. She fell slept again.
Valerie slept peacefully in the storage room with a smile on her face.
The place was more noisy than usual.
Reyna woke up anyway.
She turned on the phone a little annoyed and suddenly saw the date...
"Saturday? Valerie won't go to school today? If she doesn't sleep in her room, where is she? Is she still in the storage room?"
Reyna was certain of that.
She immediately jumped up from the bed and ran to the storage room to check the situation.
At eight o'clock in the morning, Valerie was doing her homework attentively.
Although the storage room was small and shabby, it was very warm and cozy.
If she were a child, she would have complained about such a place.
But in her previous life, she was used to living in a small room, so Valerie really didn't care.
Only now did she understand why Reyna cried that day when giving her a strawberry mille-crepe cake.
Was Reyna pitying her?
Was Reyna worried about her?
Valerie just found it funny.
Valerie asked Jayvion to bring back the strawberry mille-crepe cake.
"Ms. Horton, the cake is really nice. You could try..."
After all, Reyna sent it.
Valerie shook her head and pushed the cake back.
"Jayvion, I know it. You wanted to give me some desserts, and they saw you."
If the cake had been sent by Jayvion, Valerie would have tried it.
As a child, Valerie saw Reese, Reyna, and her brothers bring delicious food to Zoe.
Valerie stood aside and wanted to have a try.
Reese promised to buy her something the next time.
But he never lived up to his words.
There were more and more cakes in the refrigerator.
Zoe couldn't finish them all.
They would rather that Zoe left food in the fridge than give some to Valerie.
In Reese's heart, Valerie wasn't important at all.
"Humph..."
Valerie paused writing while snorting.
She shook her head, trying to drive them out of her mind.
In this life, her parents changed a bit.
But they wouldn't change who they were.
Valerie knew that clearly.
Even if they treated her better, it was just to satisfy their own compassion.
The premise of all this was that they found that they had done something wrong before.
They did these to move themselves. Once they realized they treated her better, they would return to normal.
It was unnecessary.
Valerie's eyes turned cold.
Valerie stared at the homework in front of her, her eyes filled with indifference.
Valerie clenched the pencil in her hand.
