Chapter 342 

Valeria saw him smiling, and he looked quite handsome. Unable to help herself, she asked, “What are you laughing at? Did f say something funity to you 

I was thinking, based on your performance last night, it seems you still have some feelings for me, he replied. 

After saying that, Hackett nummed and walked toward the Maddo family’s gate. 

Valeria stood there in shock, taking several seconds to realize whit the man meant by last night’s performance. He was referring to her performance in bed! 

This shameless bastard! 

“Hackett, you shameless!” she shouted angrily at the man’s retreating figure. 

Hackett merely raised his arm and waved, but even from his back, she could tell he was definitely laughing, and it was quite attractive. 

Absolutely shameless! 

Valeria snorted and turned back into the villa. 

Hackett was about to head toward his car when he happened to see Kaden approaching. It seemed he was also heading home. 

Hackett stopped in his tracks, and Kaden glanced at him, pretending not to notice, and they brushed past each other. 

Unexpectedly, Hackett spoke up, “Kaden.” 

Kaden halted and turned to him. “Mr. James, do you need something?” 

“Do you think trying to win Elsie’s favor in this way is worth it?” Hackett spoke bluntly, as if he had already figured out the truth. 

Kaden struggled to contain his guilt and smiled, saying, “Mr. James, I don’t quite understand what you’re saying, but I’ll certainly do anything that makes Elsie happy, after all, I love her” 

It seemed Kaden was determined to play dumb. 

A smirk formed on Hackett’s lips. “Put away your little schemes. Clayton will never promote you, and as for what with my woman, I’ll settle the score with you. It’s just that I don’t have the time right now.”

“Mr. James, I know you’re all influential figures. But even if you can’t find the kidnappers, can’t you refrain from pinning the blame on me? It only makes you look incompetent. Besides, I really don’t know where I’ve displeased you. In any case, it’s quite unfair for you to target me like this.” 

Hackett narrowed his eyes slightly, scrutinizing the Kaden before him, realizing he had underestimated the determination of this man to enter the upper echelons of society. 

Hackett roughly grabbed Kaden by the collar. 

“What are you trying to do!” Kaden panicked. He knew he was no match for Hackett; he had witnessed Hackett’s ruthless actions before. 

“I’m warning you, whatever you want, go and get it yourself. If you want to win Elsie’s favor, figure it out on your own. I won’t stop you from doing anything, but if you harm my woman and child, I will make sure you regret it.”
