Valerie's POV
I seriously don't know what came over me when I noticed that lady leaning so close to him and whispering something. I had the urge to go over there and push her off, but I restrained myself from doing so.
My anger got the better of me and I had to ask Christine all manner of questions. It hurt me so much when he didn't answer them, he could've at least given an invalid answer than just snubbing me. I might have forgotten my place in his house, or perhaps I tend to think too highly of myself.
"Knock, knock!" I heard a voice and I knew immediately that it must be Christine, I laid down on my bed immediately and pretended to be sleeping.
After a few seconds, he pushed the door open and walked in, then sat beside me on the bed. " I know that you aren't sleeping, can you please sit up? Let's have a little discussion, it's critical." He said with a serious tone.
