Chapter 356 

Just as Hackett was about to speak, Valeria added, “Don’t ask the dirty questions. I won’t answer your 

The man let out a low laugh. “What kind of dirty questions do you think I will ask? Valeria, what’s going on in your head?” 

Valeria was speechless. And it became her problem? Hadn’t this man always been quite shameless? 

Valeria looked impatient, “Cut the crap. Ask what you want to ask. I don’t have time to waste with you.” 

The smile on the man’s lips deepened. He placed his hands on both sides of the sofa and held Valeria tightly in his arms. His dark eyes became serious as he said in a low voice, “Let me ask you. After four years, do you still have feelings for me?” 

“Is there any point in asking this now? Can you ask something it is more meaningful? 

“Answer me. I want to know.” The man’s eyes were as deep as the sea as he looked straight at her. 

Valeria turned her head away and said coldly. “No, I don’t feel anything. I only hate you for being cold–blooded and heartless four years ago.” 

The man stiled and asked again. “After you returned, I tried to sleep with you many times against your wishes, but I succeeded every time. Do you feel anything? I couldn’t succeed that easily if you didn’t feel anything.” 

“So what? That’s just a normal physiological reaction.” 

Hackett deliberately leaned closer and looked at her exquisite face. He said, “No, you have feelings, and they are deep. It’s just you don’t want to admit it” 

“If you still 

I want to ask this nonsense, don’t say it. I don’t want to answer. It wasn’t that Valeria didn’t want to answer, but she couldn’t face her heart. And she didn’t tell the truth. 

The man held her chin with his slender fingers- “Valeria, answer me. Do you still love me?” 

In the past, 

Valeria loved him. She loved him deeply. He knew that. But now, he couldn’t be sure. 

Valeria looked at the pair of dark eyes and was about to deny it when Hackett said sternly, “Answer properly! I want to hear the truth! The lie detector is listening!” 

Valeria was stunned. She looked at the man’s handsome face in a daze and hesitated to answer. 

After some time, Hackett said in a low voice, “I just want an answer. Why can’t you tell me? I know that I was wrong all those years ago. I know that I was so wrong. But now, I have nothing else to ask for. I didn’t force you to remarry me, and I didn’t forcefully take back the custody of my son. You have to know that if I wanted to do these things, I could do it. But I didn’t. I just want to know an answer. Are you even stingy with answering this?” 

At this moment, Valeria’s heartbeat began to accelerate. A thin layer of sweat appeared on her forehead, and she began to feel nervous. 

Seeing her nervousness, Hackett actually heaved a sigh of relief 

Valeria struggled a few times in her heart. After hesitating for a long time, she looked up into the man’s eyes and said, “Yes.. I 

guess 

This time, it was the man who was stunned. He thought that he had misheard. Then, he chuckled and turned to walk to the lie detector. He looked at the data analysis and saw that Valeria was not lying. 

Therefore, Valeria still had feelings for him. She was only forcefully restraining herself and did not want to expose her love 

for him. 

Chapter 356 

Valeria sighed softly and pulled off the patches on her body. She buttoned her clothes and looked at the tall man helplessly. “Are you satisfied now?” 

The man looked at the data analysis of the lie detector and was little flattered. He really didn’t expect Valeria to still have love for him. 

There were tears in Hackett’s eyes. Valeria accidentally looked up and saw it. She thought that she had seen it wrongly. It was 

tears…..-. 

“Are you crying?” Valeria walked over to the man. She looked so delicate in front of the man. 

Hackett turned around and hugged Valeria tightly. It was as if he wanted to merge with her body. It could also be understood as being emotional. 

Valeria was stunned for a moment. Then, she slowly raised her arms and hugged the man’s back. 

“Thank you.” 

“Huh?” For a moment, she didn’t understand. “Thank what? Thank me?” Valeria thought to herself. 

The man rested his chin on her neck and sniffed the faint fragrance that belonged to her. His voice was hoarse and low. “Thank you for still loving me. Thank you for still loving me after I had treated you terribly. Thank you…” 

There was even na sense of relief in his tone. 

Valería froze on the spot and allowed the man to hug her. She felt his warm breath on her neck. It was itchy, but she felt very -safe. 

Unknowingly, two streams of tears flowed down her cheeks…. 

She didn’t know why she was crying 

“Hackett… 

“Yes…. 

“Does it make you that happy that I still love you? I loved you more four years ago than now, but you didn’t even look at me When she thought of her past self, she felt sad. She could not open her heart to accept this man. She was afraid that she would repeat the same mistake. Even though Hackett was doing very well now, she still did not dare to do so. 

Perhaps it was because she was too deeply hurt that she was too afraid to try to open her heart again. 

Hackett hugged her tighter and said, “I was too much of a bastard in the past. People are always like this. They can’t see what they truly need. Now that I understand, it’s too late. I know you won’t forgive me, but I only need to know that you still love me. That’s enough. You can live the rest of your life however you want. I won’t force you to do anything again.” 

Even if Valeria didn’t want to remarry him, be with him, or return the child to him, he would accept it because he deserved 

In any case, he would protect Valeria and her son for the rest of his life. 

Valeria suddenly did not know what to say… 

Upstairs, in the room. 

Elsie was throwing things like a madman. She threw everything she saw. She was in a crazy state. 

“How could it not be him? How could he not be lying… Impossible, impossible…”

“Elsie, don’t be like this: Kaden went forward. He hugged her borly to prevent her from breaking anything and injuring herself again. The ground was already filled with fragments. 

Elsie broke down. She cried. “So it wasn’t Hackett that night. Whe was it. I was… by a man I didn’t even know… 

“Elsie, don’t be afraid. I don’t mind these things. Can’t we pretend that nothing happened in the future?” 

Kaden thought that this matter would pass after a long time. Anyway, the man that night was him. He would not care about this, but it seemed difficult for Elsie to get over it. 

Elsie shouted angrily. “Even if you don’t mind, I do! I’m the eldest daughter of the Maddox family! The daughter of a prestigious family! How can I be casually slept with by a wretched man I don’t know!”
