Valerie opened her eyes sleepily and then squeezed them shut. Last night, she came to her parents' place, because she had no place to spend the night.
She didn't want to go to any cheap hotel. She might not have found her marriage certificate, but her jewelry was safe.
The jewelry also included Sinclair family heirlooms that were given to Marissa by Rafael and later Valerie didn't let her take them.
Her parents didn't have a spare room so right now this attic was her room that had a small mattress along with several metal boxes next to the wall.
Valerie's suitcases were sprawled all over the floor that she had brought from Rafael's place. Stretching herself, she got up and looked around. This room didn't even have an attached bath, and she needed to go to the living room to use it.
Within a few days, she had gone from riches to rags.
