Chapter 365 

Valeria had nothing to say. Lester’s wife was dead and had died right under their noses. 

Hackett went forward and pulled her behind him. He looked at Lester straight in the eyes and said, “You won’t believe me no matter what I say now?” 

Lester did not speak. He sat there and looked out of the window with a cold expression as if he cared nothing about this world. 

“In that case, don’t blame me for being heartless.” 

Valeria was stunned. “What are you doing?” 

What other tricks could he use to make Lester speak? She could not come up with anything as Lester’s only concern was dead. 

“Don’t forget that your wife’s body is still in the morgue. You’re her only family. If you don’t help her with her funeral…” Hackett deliberately didn’t finish his words and let Lester guess. 

This time, even Valeria felt that the man was a little heartless. He was simply inhumane. 

She had also discovered Hackett’s nature. This 

man was always so decisive. 

Lester finally reacted. He turned around and looked at Hackett. “How can you be so heartless?” 

“So, whether you want to say it is up to you. Since you know my temper, don’t provoke me.” Hackett’s expression was as cold as ice as if he really did not care about the life and death of others. 

Lester suddenly smiled sadly. “I’m useless. I couldn’t treat her illness when she was alive. Now that she is dead, I can’t even prepare her funeral. I’m really useless.” 

“This has nothing to do with you in the first place. If you tell me who you’re taking the blame for, I’ll arrange for you to leave immediately.” 

Lester was a little moved this time. He hated Hackett for killing his wife, but he also wanted to send his wife off one last time 

Seeing his hesitation, Hackett said, “I’ll give you three days to consider. Your wife’s body won’t be in the morgue for long. Contact me when

With that, Hackett pulled Valeria out of the confinement room. 

After walking out, Hackett greeted the prison guard. “Inform me if anyone comes to visit him in the next few days, including any phone calls or letters.” 

“Okay.” The prison guard suddenly thought of something. “By the way, Mr. James. Before the hospital called, there was another call to look for Lester. He only said that he was Lester’s distant relative. They only spoke for a few minutes.” 

“Give me the phone number!” The man frowned. He felt that he was very close to the truth. 

That evening at the Maddox family’s place… 

When Valeria returned home, she found the family eating happily in the dining area. 

” 

As she approached the dining area, she could hear the laughter and the sound of the young kid asking his grandparents to get him the food he wanted. 

She walked in, and everyone stopped when they saw her.

“Valeria, you’re back. Sit down and have the meal with us.” Loretta was the first to speak.

Then, the little one jumped off the dining chair and hugged her legs. “Mommy, where did you go? I missed you so much.” 

“Be good. Mommy has been a little busy these days. Did you eat obediently?” Valeria touched her son’s face. 

“Yes, I’m very obedient. If you don’t believe me, you can ask Grandma.” The little one pulled her to the dining table and buried his head in his food. He was just a little foodie.

Clayton slowly said, “I called you but couldn’t get through. I have a good news to tell you. Elsie and Kaden have registered their marriage today. The wedding is scheduled to be held at the end of the month. Although it’s a little rushed, it must still be held grandly.” 

Had they registered their marriage? 

Valeria looked at Kaden and Elsie in surprise. 

Elsie looked at Valeria and felt that she was being mocked. She was in pain and torment. She stood up and said, “Dad, I’m not feeling well. I’ll go back to my room first.” 

With that, she got up and left. 

“Uncle, Auntie, I’m going to accompany her. Enjoy your meal.” Kaden stood up and was about to leave. 

However, Clayton stopped him. “Kaden, wait a moment before going up. Let’s discuss the wedding first. How many relatives will come from your side? Your parents…” 

Before Clayton could finish speaking, Kaden replied, “Uncle, I don’t have any relatives here anymore. I only have my mother. I’ll invite her to the wedding. There won’t be anyone else.” 

“Just your mother?” Loretta felt a little strange. 

Clayton frowned unhappily. “Only your mother can come?” 

What kind of wedding was this? Almost all of them were friends and relatives of the Maddox family. 

With a gentle smile, Kaden replied, “Uncle, I’m not a local, so I don’t have any relatives or friends here. My relatives in my hometown are too far away, so they might not be willing to come. Please understand.” 

Since that was the case, Clayton and Loretta looked at each other and did not force him. 

The reason why Kaden did this was firstly because he felt that his relatives and friends in his hometown were too petty and were not presentable. Secondly, he wanted to cut off all contact with his poor relatives in the future. He wanted to live a new life and completely forget the past. 

From now on, he was Clayton’s live–in son–in–law. Why would he still care about those unimportant people? 

“I’ll go accompany Elsie first.” Kaden smiled humbly and nodded. Then, he stood up and walked out of the dining room. Loretta sighed. “Forget it. It’s fine if his relatives don’t come. As long as he treats Elsie well, it’s better than anything.” 

Clayton was silent. If this were in the past, he would not have taken a fancy to this poor kid. But now, he had no choice. Elsie just liked him. 

Only Valeria felt that Kaden’s state tonight was a little strange. She couldn’t say what was weird, but he looked like a villain who had gotten what he wanted: 

It was as if Kaden’s goal had been achieved, and he was starting to act recklessly.

Clayton and Loretta had already been disregarded in the beginning. Elsie was like a mouse afraid of the light and hid from 

everyone. 

She felt that this Kaden was a little strange the more she thought about it… 

“Dad, Mom, don’t you think this Kaden is quite strange?” asked Valeria. 

Clayton asked, “Tell me in detail. What is strange about him?” 

At first, Clayton didn’t think highly of Kaden. He thought that this poor kid was just greedy for wealth. However, after this incident, he felt Kaden might be genuinely in love with Elsie. 

However, after registering their marriage, he felt something was wrong with this kid. 

Valeria shook her head. “I can’t say. Based on an ordinary person’s personality, who would be able to tolerate their girlfriend cheating on them? But from the beginning to the end, he didn’t seem to blame my sister. He didn’t care at all. Is this the reaction of a normal man? I can understand even if he struggled in pain and accepted this reality. But he was too calm.”

Clayton frowned. Of course, he sensed Kaden’s calmness, but Elsie’s tantrums gave him a headache, and he did not have the time to think about this.
