Chapter 67

After a while, Valeria came downstairs. She looked tired and probably hadn’t had a good rest for the past two days.

Keith had already poured a glass of water and placed it on the coffee table, Valeria walked over and sat on the sofa opposite.

The man pushed the glass of water in front of Valeria. “Take a few sips to wake yourself up. You look tired.”

“Thank you.”

Valeria picked up her glass and took a sip. Although she was very tired, the moment she saw Alex, all the fatigue was gone.

“For Alex to be found so quickly, it should be because of Hacker’s help.”

This was

shot a

question but a statement.

Valeria nodded tacitly.

Keith asked again. “So Hackett already knows that Alex is his son

Otherwise, Why would Hackett agree to help find Alex? Hackett did not look like such a magnanimous man,

“He doesn’t know, but he requested a condition.”

“What condition?”

Keith was really a little curious. What conditions could make Hackett willing to help other men

If Hackett didn’t know the truth, then he should still think that Alex was Keith’s soIL

Valeria said, “He told me to cut off all contact with you.”

“Heh…”

find their sons?

Keith sneered when he heard that. He knew it, Hackett was not that magnanimous. People like Hackett who worked in the business world would always pay attention to profits in whatever they did.

“You actually agreed?”

However, this was the most unacceptable thing for Keith. Could it be that Valeria really wanted to cut ties with him?

Valeria was in a difficult position. I didn’t think too much at that time. I just wanted to find Alex as soon as possible, so

“You can tell him that Alex is his biological son. He can refuse it if he doesn’t want to find Alex. Why must you agree to this

condition?”

Keith was a little angry. Did he have no place in Valeria’s heart? Valeria could give up their relationship so easily?

“… I’m sorry…

“Do you really plan to never let Hackett know about Alex? Keith felt that Valeria’s heart was already starting to waver.

Valeria gripped her glass tightly. “I was conflicted. For a few moments, when I saw how capable Hackett is, I felt that Alex might be able to obtain better things by his side. However, when I thought of his ruthlessness back then, I felt hatred and didn’t know what to do.

If Alex could live in the James family, he would definitely get the best in the world.

Chapter 67

However, four years ago, Hackett had heartlessly abandoned Valeria, who had just gotten pregnant. Valeria could not let and could not forgive him

Keith slowly stood up. “I can give you an opinion.”

Valeria looked up at Keith as if she wanted to hear his opinion because Keith had always been a rational man.

“Return Alex to the James family and live your own life. After all, it seems safer for him to stay in the James family.”

Keith glanced at the time. I’m relieved that you’re back safely. To going to the law office to take a look. I haven’t been there for two days.”

After saying that. Keith turned around and left.

Valeria sat alone on the sofa. Her mind was in a mess.

After this incident, Valeria also saw the James family’s power and Hackett’s ability to protect his family.

As a lawyer. Valeria had made many enemies in the past few years. What should she do if she encountered such a situation in the future?

Valeria really could not bear to return Alex to the James family, and it was even more impossible for her to return Hackett’s side. The humiliation from four years ago was still vivid in her mind.

In the evening.

Night fell, and the entire city was enveloped in flickering neon lights.

Valeria drove to the James Manor.

This was what Valeria had promised in advance. She could only fulfill her promise. Otherwise, when Hackett sent someone to look for her, he would not be so geritle.

“Ms. Sharp, please follow me.”

The builer led Valeria to Hackett’s bedroom. It was empty.

Valeria didn’t understand. Why did the butler bring Valeria to the bedroom? Where was Hackett?

“What are

we doing here? Where is Hackett? He is not in the manor?”

The butler replied with a smile, “Ms. Sharp, please change into the clothes Mr. Hackett has prepared for you. He’s attending a charity auction tonight. You will have to go with him.”

This bastard was still so domineering.

When did Valeria agree to attend the banquet with Hackett? How ridiculous!

With that, the butler left the bedroom and closed the door.

Valeria looked at the clothes in the gift box and did not have the slightest desire to wear them. However, when Valeria thought about how Hackett had been looking for Alex for the past two days, her heart softened.

Valeria picked up the dress in the gift box and was stunned.

It was a strappy starry dress, a high–end limited edition from a certain brand.

Valeria hesitated for a few seconds before putting on the starry dress. However, she could not reach e zipper behind her and walked to the mirror in the cloakroom.

Chapter 67

The second Valeria saw herself, slie froze.

This dress was breathtakingly beautiful. It was as if the entire galaxy was on Valeria.

Valeria could not help but reveal a sweet smile. She wanted to pull up the zipper behind her back, but she could not reach it no matter how hard she tried.

Valeria did not even hear the man’s low footsteps when the bedroom door was pushed open.

“What’s going on…

Valeria was a little annoyed and muttered softly. Her arms were red from lifting, but she still couldn’t reach the zipper.

Unexpectedly, a pair of man’s large hands suddenly grabbed Valeria’s slender waist, and his other hand easily helped her zip up her back.

Valeria froze on the spot as if she had been electrocuted. She looked at the man in the mirror and could not help but complain, “Are you a ghost? Do you walk without making any sound?”

The atmosphere in the cloakroom became a little ambiguous.

Hackett’s handsome features were covered with a wicked smile. He looked up at Valeria in the mirror. “Of course, there’s a sound. But you didn’t hear it.”

“Valeria…

What for?” Valeria snapped back, shifting a little to the side, not wanting to be that close to the man.

The man’s sexy and low voice slowly sounded. “It’s been four years since we last met. You seem to have become sexier.

As Hackett spoke, his dark eyes kept staring at Valeria’s chest.

Valeria’s eyes instantly widened. She looked down at the beautiful scenery on her chest and subconsciously covered it “Hackett! You pervert! Where are you looking?”

With that, Valeria turned around and was about to walk out of the cloakroom.

Unexpectedly, Hackett pulled Valeria back and held her face with his other hand. He lowered his head and kissed Valeria deeply.

“Uh…

Valeria struggled to move away, but Hackett was getting more and more engrossed in the kiss as if he was addicted. If they continued kissing like this, something might really happen.
