Chapter 216
“Valerial Listen to me! Hackett shouted angrily,
However, Valeria was not in the mood to listen to him.
“What else do you want to say? I don’t want to hear it! Save your sweet words for your soon–to–be engaged fiancee and future. father–in–lawl
Although Hackett was quite happy to see her angry expression, his heart ached a little.
Hackett held Valeria’s face to keep her still. “Calm down! It’s not what you think! Can you listen to my explanation?”
Valeria was almost stunned by the shouting and looked at the min in a daze.
“Listen to me, I am getting engaged to Elsie, but it is not what you think! …”
Hackett was about to explain his plan to Valeria, but at this moment, the elevator door in the underground garage opened
Hackett looked up and saw Clayton walking out, so Hackett chose to shut up.
“Go on. Didn’t you want to say something? Go on. Tell me what thought wrongly! Go on. Don’t say that I didn’t give you a chance!” Valeria became even angrier when she saw that Hackett suddenly stopped talking.
Clayton was here to see how Hackett was handling this matter.
Of course, Hackett knew the intentions of this wily old fox. He suddenly let go of Valeria’s hand.
Valeria lost her balance and staggered two steps back. She looked at the man in front of her in confusion.
“What I want to tell you is that I’m indeed getting engaged next month. Don’t pester me again in the future. I’ll pay for the
best if you’re willing to
child’s support on time. From now on, we have nothing to do with each other except for the child. It‘
let me have the child’s custody. If you aren’t willing, I won’t force you. It’s up to you.”
When Hackett said that, his chest felt as heavy as lead
However, to gain Clayton’s trust, he had no choice but to do that,
Valeria’s eyes widened. She could not believe her ears. Did this man chase her all the way to the underground garage just to
tell her that?
She was completely enraged!
“Hacken! You’ve gone too far! You came here just to tell me that Did I pester you? Did I forbid you from remarrying? Is there a need for you to humiliate me like this? No wonder you’ve been chasing me and our child overseas for the past few days. It turns out you’re afraid that our presence will hinder your wedding. So, the Elsie who came to look for me is your fiancee?” Valeria snorted. “I’m so stupid. I even called you for help: How could I be so stupid?”
Thinking of her actions the day before, she felt that she was a joke.
Clayton stood at the side and watched the quarrel scene with great interest. He was observing Hackett’s expression every second.
The empty garage was filled with Valeria’s echoes. She sounded so pitiful and tragic, as though the whole world had abandoned her.
Hackett’s heart ached when he saw her crying. He clenched both his fists tightly.

Chapter 216
However, to snatch back the shares owned by his grandfather, he had to pay the price….
Hackett suppressed his heartache, and pretending to be ruthless, he said in a deep voice, “That’s right. My fiancer is Elsie. It’s best not to provoke her. Disappear from her sight. She seems to be bothered by my past marriage. I hope you can be sensible and not cause me trouble,”
With that, he turned around and left.
Valeria’s tears flowed out of her eyes, slid down her checks, and fell to the ground.
Valeria closed her eyes in despair and roared at the man’s back. Get lost! Don’t ever let me see you again! I won’t let you have the child’s custody! I won’t let you find a stepmother for him! I won’t leave this place either. Who gives you the right to decide everything? I want to make the decisions for my own life
Hackett really had to leave quickly. Otherwise, he would really not be able to resist rushing over and pulling Valeria into his arms. He would not be able to resist telling her the truth.
The moment Hackett turned around, tears welled up in his dark eyes.
His heart also ached, but it was not the right time to tell Valeria the truth. He had to gain Clayton’s complete trust before he could use Clayton to reclaim the shares from his aunt
Hackett quickened his pace to leave the garage, fighting the urge to turn around.
Clayton, who was standing at the side, revealed a satisfied smile it seemed that Hackett had completely given up wife. He could entrust his precious daughter to that fellow.
on his ex-
Clayton looked at Valeria with a sympathetic gaze and shook his head with a smile. He then turtied around and left the underground garage as well.
There was only Valeria left in the huge garage.
She stood alone in tears and tried to walk back to her car. Unexpectedly, she stepped on something sharp and sat on the ground in pain. Then, she completely broke down.
Valeria could not help but cry. However, she did not want others to see her sorry state at that moment, so she silently covered her mouth.
Why did it turn out
this w
way?
Hackett had always been such a person, right?
She knew it all along. Why did she get her hopes up for such a scumbag? She deserved it!
“Serves vol
right! Serves you right! Valeria, you deserve it!”
She cried bitterly and scolded herself in the garage.
She should have learned her lesson. Four years ago, her feelings had been severely hurt by this scumbag. Why did she still not learn her lesson four years later? Why did she believe his words?
Late at night, in a bar.
Valeria came to the bar alone and sat at the bar. She asked the bartender to pour her glasses of wine one after another.
She was still wearing the dress she had worn to the cocktail party that night. Her sexy back was exposed to the air, and many young men in the bar were staring at her.
Men kept coming to talk to her, but she chased them away impatiently.

Chapter 216
“Pour me another glass please.” She handed the empty glass to the bartender. Her eyes were glassy, and she was beginning to feel a little tipsy. However, she still asked for one glass after another.
The bartender poured her another glass of wine and couldn’t help but persuade her, “Miss, you’ve drunk so much. Why don’t you get someone to pick you up? Otherwise, it’ll be troublesome if you get drunk later?
The bartender was also a man. Of course, he could see that many men were waiting for her to get drunk so that they could take her away.
Valeria started to speak incoherently. “Who are you? Stay out of my business. Just pour me wine, as I said. Cut the crap. Hurry up! Men are just full of crap!”
Seeing her like this, the bartender shook his head helplessly and continued his work.
“Let me tell you, no man is good. Men’s mouths are full of lies. He sounded so convincing. He should have become an actor. It’s a huge loss to the entertainment industry without him… Valeria snorted.
Valeria complained to the bartender. At this moment, she was completely drunk.
