Mr. President You Are The Daddy Of My Triplets novel Chapter 159

Chapter 159: 159- He Needed To Be There For Her

On their way back to the hotel, they both were quiet in the car. They had reached the event venue in separate cars but now instead of going back to the office they were heading to their hotel in a single car.

Nina invited Valerie to her room and ordered coffee for both of them.

"Ethan and Geena must be in the office," Valerie remarked after taking a seat at the coffee table.

Nina preferred to sit on her bed and placed the pillow on her lap, "Don’t worry about them. They aren’t kids and know their way back."

Valerie was tapping her foot on the floor, twirling a lock of hair around her index finger. Her eyes were darting around the room, looking everywhere except Nina.

Nina was observing her every action, "What is this nervousness about?" she took Valerie by surprise with the question.

"N-no. I’m not nervous..." Valerie started fidgeting with her fingers. Her anxiety was evident in her every action. It seemed like she was having difficulty breathing.

Nina could feel the tension in the room. Even her mind wasn’t able to process what just happened today at the office.

Marissa!

The girl they used for their advantage and then discarded her like trash.

She shook her head and tried to focus on the problem at hand. She steadied herself before finally speaking.

"Valerie! Your every action is a telltale sign that you are tensed. What are you worried about?"

"N-nothing," Valerie raised her one shoulder, "I’m worried about nothing," she forced a smile to her lips.

Nina exhaled a long breath and got off her bed. She went to her stubborn daughter-in-law and took another seat.

"Valerie!" she called her name, but Valerie was too busy shaking her legs, "Look at me, Valerie. Here!" she snapped her fingers in front of Valerie’s eyes.

"I just don’t know, Nina. What is Marissa doing here? How much has she told Rafael?" she started chewing her lower lip, "Why didn’t Rafael ever talk about her to any of us?"

"We both don’t know what she has told my son, Valerie. But you need to get a grip on your emotions. You are a strong woman. Just bring back that woman who was fighting me till a few minutes back."

Nina wanted to shake her hard.

When Valerie didn’t speak, Nina leaned over to hold her cold hands, "Don’t forget. This is the same woman we both got rid of five years back. Or have you forgotten about our perfect planning? Remember how I changed the whole working staff in our house?"

Valerie nodded with a chuckle and at last looked up to meet Nina’s gaze, "Yeah. I still remember."

Nina smiled and moved back a little, "It all needs some planning, Valerie. When two great minds work together then I’m sure we’ll be able to come up with something good. Don’t you think that?"

Valerie almost jumped up in fright when heard the knock, "Room service!"

"Please come in!" Nina called out loudly, "Must be our coffee!"

They both were quiet when the staff brought the trolley full of snacks along with a pot of hot steaming coffee.

"You ordered so much stuff," Valerie ran a gaze on all the baked stuff, "It was supposed to be just a cup of coffee."

"No, Valerie. Now we need to celebrate each day with coffee or wine," Nina said with a sly grin, "After all, every step we take, brings us closer to bring down that girl."

By the end of it, her voice had gone bitter.
