Chapter 31 I Don’t Want Your Help
Reese realized that.
He felt distressed.
If Valerie caused a scene, he would be in the right and self–confident…
But she was calm…
“Valerie, does it hurt?”
Reyna wiped her tears and walked over, gently asking.
Valerie looked at Reyna and shook her head.
“I am fine, Mom.”
Her short reply made Jayvion and the family doctor shake all over…
Valerie had so many injuries. It would hurt like hell when the doctor helped her disperse the blood stasis. The doctor knew it.
However, Valerie didn’t groan and endured the pain…
She could even talk to Reyna calmly…
The family doctor applied ointment to Valerie’s wounds, his forehead covered with sweat.
Then he finished rubbing the last bruise on her ankle.
He wiped the sweat on his forehead, and his back was covered with cold sweat.

*S: Madam, I have finished applying medicine to Ms. Horton. But she also has internal injuries. I suggest she should rest at home and eat
nutritious food. She is malnourished.”
The doctor’s tone had a tinge of reproach, and everyone knew what he
But no one argued back, because Valerie was skinny!
She looked pititul.
Reese admitted his mistake in silence.
“I will come and apply medicine to Ms. Horton’s wounds again tomorrow: You should let her rest and eat good food tonight.”
Reyna was enlightened.
“That’s right! Valerie hasn’t eaten dinner! Jayvion, let’s cook for her in the kitchen!”
Reyna took Jayvion to the kitchen.
Reese looked at Bruce.
“Bruce, take Zoe back to her room.”
“Okay, Zoe, let’s go.”
Zoe rested her head on Bruce’s shoulder.
She didn’t dare to look up at Valerie’s wounds. Hearing Bruce say he
would take her away, Zoe quickly nodded.
Zoe raised her head slightly…
“Valerie, good night…”

Valerie looked at the cute little girl and laughed at herself inwardly.
“Okay, you should go back to your room and rest, too.”
Bruce took Zoe away after she finished speaking, and he didn’t hear all the words Valerie said.
Kieran and Reese both felt embarrassed.
Reese rolled his eyes at the door.
“What’s wrong with him? Why couldn’t he leave before hearing Valerie out?”
Reese grumbled, He and Kieran looked at each other, and then Reese looked at Valerie who was on the bed.
The two men didn’t know what to say.
In the end, Reese walked to Valerie and spoke.
“Valerie, how do you want to solve this?”
Valerie widened her eyes as she looked at Reese.
Was this the Reese she knew?
Wouldn’t he find the perpetrator and demand justice?
Why was Reese asking for her opinion?
It was so weird.
Valerie asked tentatively.
“If I tell you, will you respect my wishes?”
Kieran nodded.

“I will. Just tell me what you think. I will respect your choice and deal with this accordingly.”
It was the first time that Reese talked to Valerie so gently.
Valerie felt flattered.
This was a good opportunity for her to express her opinions.
She looked back at the two tall men who were looking down at her.
“Kieran, Father, I don’t want to make a big deal out of this. I want to make friends on my own. I was bullied today, but I took care of it. They won’t cause me trouble again.”
After Valerie finished speaking, Reese’s face darkened.
Of course, he disagreed with her.
The light in Valerie’s eyes went out.
She turned her head and looked at the lamp on the ceiling.
She stopped talking to them.
Kieran went forward and took Reese’s arm.
Reese held back his dissatisfaction and looked at the door angrily.
Kieran walked to Valerie and knelt on one knee.
“Can you tell me why you don’t want us to help you? Do you really want to make friends by yourself?”
Valerie didn’t look at Kieran and only nodded.
“I don’t want your help…”

Valerie murmured in a daze. Kieran was near her and heard it clearly.
After Valerie finished speaking, he squinted and felt uncomfortable in his chest. He opened his mouth and wanted to speak but couldn’t…
If another girl said that, she would be considered independent.
However, when Valerie said it, Kieran only felt she didn’t want to be close to her family…
Kieran scratched his thin hand and lowered his head.
“Well, I understand. You should rest at home these days. When you get better, you can go to school again, but…”
Suddenly, Kieran’s face darkened, and his faint anger jolted Valerie out of her reverie.
“If you get bullied again and come back with wounds, you must listen to us. Understand?”
Valerie nodded and agreed.
Kieran pursed his lips and stood up, pulling Reese out.
“Dad, let’s go out now.
Realizing Valerie didn’t want to rely on them or tell others she was a Horton, Reese was distressed.
When the two men left Valerie’s room, Reese violently shook Kieran’s hand away.
“Since she wants to do it on her own, let her try! We are of no help here!” RêAd lat𝙚St chapters at Novel(D)ra/ma.Org Only
Kieran frowned in frustration and rubbed the spot between his brows.

“Enough! Dad, Valerie hasn’t cried or complained to you since she came back. What more do you want? She is wounded. If you keep yelling at her, how can she be a normal girl?”
Kieran’s tone was a bit harsh.
Reese was less angry.
It was rare for Kieran to show his agitation in front of Reese.
“Humph! Okay, I will stay out of this! You can deal with it all you want!”
After saying that, Reese put his hands behind his back and stormed into his study.
Kieran looked at Valerie’s room and stood still for a long time until Reyna and Jayvion came over with dinner.
“Kieran, is Valerie asleep?”
“Ah, Mom, I don’t know. Let me take a look?”
Kieran came back to his senses and gently opened the door to Valerie’s
room.
Then he saw her sleeping face.
She put her hands on her chest and pulled her quilt to her chin. She was wrapped in it tightly.
She was small and almost invisible under the quilt.
Her face was pale from the pain she felt when the doctor helped her disperse the blood stasis.
Even her breathing was faint.

She didn’t look like she was breathing.
Reyna’s and Kieran’s hearts skipped a beat. They quickly went forward and put their fingers under Valerie’s nose.
Valerie’s faint breathing reassured Reyna. They looked at a sleeping Valerie silently.
After a long time, Reyna spoke in a flat tone.
“Do you know who hurt her?”
