Mr. Pretentious: Miss Valerius, He is Begging for a Title-Chapter 190: Master Ford Mistakes the Twin Sister

Chapter 190: Chapter 190: Master Ford Mistakes the Twin Sister
Eleanor Valerius didn’t agree to Byron Ford’s proposed deal.
She knew Sebastian Ford was angry; after dinner, he went straight to the study to handle some affairs.
Having upset him wasn’t enough to warrant punishment, and Eleanor Valerius wouldn’t try to appease him.
In this early stage of pregnancy, she would sneakily look at new mom guides.
After reading, she’d delete the history to avoid Sebastian Ford discovering it.
Eleanor Valerius planned to shower after her walk.
She hadn’t anticipated that as soon as she took off her clothes, she’d attract Sebastian Ford.
Their bare skin met candidly, raising the temperature of intimacy.
After showering, Eleanor Valerius was kissed by Sebastian Ford from the bathroom all the way to the bed.
She had to admit, his kissing skills were truly remarkable.
She wasn’t afraid of his assertiveness; she only feared his seduction.
The passion on the bed was always restrained, ending in a brief taste.
Though they were lovers, Sebastian Ford found himself needing to abstain.
He’d never forced her in matters of intimacy because Eleanor Valerius was also proactive and passionate.
However, ever since she ran away and was alone with Damian Lowell, there seemed to be a subtle distance between them.
Even in intimate moments, she wholly belonged to him.
Yet, despite the physical closeness, they couldn’t bridge the emotional gap.
Sebastian Ford held Eleanor Valerius in his sleep, always unsatisfied.
...
Eleanor Valerius resumed responsibility for the Sinclair Family’s cooperation project and met Julia Ford at the company.
"You’re impressive."
Julia Ford, as if summoning courage, spoke to her: "Don’t get me wrong; I’m not being sarcastic. I’m genuinely praising you. I saw the news from the Croft Family, and Mrs. Croft’s crimes will be publicly tried; Zoe Croft felt embarrassed and went abroad.
I believe Ivy Valerius can also rest in peace; this matter, and this matter alone, you handled well."
Eleanor Valerius was surprised to be complimented and suddenly found Julia Ford not so annoying anymore.
"Thank you."
Julia Ford nodded with a proud attitude, said it and then turned to leave.
For some reason, Eleanor Valerius felt that Julia Ford had an air of sweetness, as if in love.
With whom?
She remembered Julia Ford liked Damian Lowell.
Lately, Eleanor Valerius and Damian Lowell’s meetings had been purely for business.
In places she couldn’t see, Damian Lowell and Julia Ford were indeed secretly dating.
With his glasses, Damian Lowell appeared like a dual-faced man, turning calm and indifferent after being gentle with Julia Ford.
Simultaneously, Damian Lowell maintained a collaborative partnership with Owen Shaw.
His guarded approach towards Owen Shaw kept Owen Shaw wary of this deeply calculating person.
...
Owen Shaw had to act weak when he returned home.
Today, Sophia Ford brought Julian Ford back after finishing his family punishment.
Seeing her son’s thin figure, Sophia Ford felt both heartache and anger.
She merely refrained from accusing the old man of favoritism towards Sebastian Ford in front of the two children.
However, Owen Shaw’s gaze was tender towards his wife.
Together with the Lowell Family, he intended to eliminate Sebastian Ford to help his wife gain control of the Ford Family and also take over Sebastian Ford’s vast overseas business.
After dinner, Owen Shaw quietly asked Julia Ford, "Julia, have you been dating someone recently?"
He didn’t want his daughter to get too close to Damian Lowell, who sought revenge.
Julia Ford blinked, denying: "No, I’m single."
Though she very much wanted to make it public that she was Damian Lowell’s girlfriend, she had promised him to keep it secret, so she had to hold back.
Meanwhile, Sophia Ford was comforting her son: "Julian, you’ll return to the company tomorrow; remember, you’re the Ford Family’s eldest grandson; what’s yours can’t be taken by anyone."
The humiliation of being confined built up anger in Julian Ford’s eyes.
He was convinced that Eleanor Valerius was the cause of all this.
So he sought to find Eleanor Valerius’s lover and exact revenge!
...
Next day.
When Eleanor Valerius saw Julian Ford at the company’s project department, she recalled there was still this person in the Ford Family.
However, Julian Ford couldn’t understand why his uncle arranged for Eleanor Valerius to be in charge of the Sinclair Family’s project.
There was a meeting in the project department in the morning.
Julian Ford intentionally messed up the ’s info, intending to frame Eleanor Valerius.
Little did he know that Assistant Valerius’s work ability had greatly improved.
In the conference room’s scrutiny, Eleanor Valerius opened the file and immediately spotted the problem.
So, she put down the materials and, relying on her familiarity from hands-on responsibility, calmly completed the meeting.
Julian Ford’s scheming failed, and he had a scowl the entire time.
Until the meeting ended.
"Please, the relevant project department personnel stay behind."
Sitting there, Eleanor Valerius calmly questioned: "Who prepared this ? Making such a low-level mistake, are they deliberately sabotaging the company’s project? Or are they just incompetent?"
She didn’t name names, yet her questioning gaze was directed at Julian Ford.
"What status do you have to doubt me?"
An infuriated Julian Ford slammed the table, speaking arrogantly: "It’s just a faulty file, not your place to chastise."
"Just?"
Eleanor Valerius raised an eyebrow, her dangerous gaze somewhat reminiscent of Sebastian Ford.
"This is a serious error that shouldn’t occur among Ford Family employees; I’ll use Mr. Ford’s authority to check computer records and surveillance—whoever did it must take responsibility."
Upon hearing this, Julian Ford immediately panicked.
"Don’t check!"
At this moment, Sophia Ford pushed open the door, glaring coldly at Eleanor Valerius, questioning: "In the company, you’re just a little assistant; without Sebastian’s consent, you dare use his authority to investigate internal privacy—how audaciously overstepping!"
Seeing the Eldest Miss Ford, Eleanor Valerius realized she had to swallow her pride.
Yet, her concessions concealed subtle defiance.
"Since Esteemed Miss insists on not checking, then we won’t; I forgot Mr. Manager has a mother’s protection in the company too."
Outside the meeting room, employees watched, aware Julian Ford was a mama’s boy.
Hearing the surrounding murmured laughter, Sophia Ford was almost grinding her teeth in anger.
"Uncultured wretch, mark my words!"
Eleanor Valerius feared nothing; she’d be gone in two months anyway.
...
In the afternoon, Chloe Valerius suddenly visited the company.
Eleanor Valerius looked at her branded outfit with slight concern.
"Sis, I’ve come to see your work."
She appeared smiling and well-behaved, yet her real aim was to secretly look at Master Ford.
"Alright, I’ll take you to the break room for now; after I finish with the files, I’ll join you."
Eleanor Valerius was busy.
In the end, as soon as she left, Chloe Valerius stealthily snuck into the CEO’s office to explore.
At this time, Sebastian Ford returned.
Having not seen Eleanor Valerius all day, he walked into the office.
His gaze suddenly caught sight of Eleanor Valerius in a jacket, seemingly startled and turning to face away.
"What guilty deed makes you hide from me?"
Sebastian Ford chuckled, taking off his suit jacket casually as he walked towards her.
His voice sounded gentle and indulgent.
Chloe Valerius, wearing her sister’s clothes, sensed Sebastian Ford approaching and her heartbeat accelerated.
The next moment, she slowly turned around and looked up, coquettishly saying, "I’m not hiding from you; I’m just shy."
Sebastian Ford realized he mistook Chloe Valerius for Eleanor Valerius and instantly became furious.
"Who let you in? And you’re wearing Eleanor’s clothes?"
What was originally a step to approach turned into a retreat filled with disgust.
"Why can’t I wear my sister’s clothes?"
Chloe Valerius playfully expressed, "Master Ford, my sister and I are twins; if you find her attractive, don’t you find me equally so?"
At this moment, Sebastian Ford’s expression was menacingly dangerous, his voice cold.
"Look in the mirror, you don’t resemble Eleanor Valerius; you’re ugly."
After speaking, Sebastian Ford didn’t even glance at Chloe Valerius’s shocked and aggrieved reaction, turning and striding away.
As he opened the office door, Eleanor Valerius was right there at the entrance!
