Billionaire Ex-wife: I Can't Live Without You

Chapter 1454

She was beyond exhausted from the physical toll everything took on her, but she somehow kept from fainting even once.

Valerie had never imagined herself pouncing on scraps of food and devouring it like an animal, but that was exactly what she did when she was served Lunch.

The coarse bread she stuffed in her mouth tasted more delicious than any specialty dishes she had ever eaten before.

Unfortunately, Effie forbade her from eating much.

After Valerie finished three whole pieces of bread, Effie took the plate away and told her to feed the pigs.

Despite her status of being an illegitimate child, Atticus and Graham had treated Valerie well.

They had spoiled her with material things.

She had never seen a live pig in all her life, let alone tried to feed one.

The moment she opened the fence to the pig sty, she was assaulted by the disgusting smell of slop and manure.

She darted to the side and puked everything she had just eaten.

She wasn’t even full to begin with, and now, she had thrown it all up.

Her stomach felt hollow.
