Chapter 386 

At the same time. 

Hackett was also stunned for a second. 

He was taken aback that he could also say such endearing words. 

Those were words he had never said before. Valeria was the first to hear. 

“Why aren’t you saying anything?” Valeria’s voice came from the phone. 

Hackett slowly said, “I’m surprised as well. So I know how to say such sweet stuff. Did you like it? I can say more in the future.” 

He would not be willing to say to other women. However, if it was Valeria, he could say such words often. 

“What a glib tongue. I don’t like smooth talkers. When do you plan to come back?” Valeria quickly changed the topic. 

“Maybe another three to four days. Why? Can’t wait to see me?” As Hackett spoke, he took out a cigarette. He lit it between his lips. He exhaled a puff of smoke. 

On the other side, Valeria’s eyes dimmed. It would take another three to four days. She felt like years had passed and did not dare to go out. 

However, Hackett had a lot on his plate. She did not want to cause any more trouble for him. 

She knew Hackett would return immediately if he learned of her current situation. If that happened, his work and his image in the company would be damaged. 

That was not what she wanted. 

Valeria smiled. “Alex and I will wait for you to return. You have to work hard and return after settling the matters over there. Hurry up and sleep for a while. You probably have to wake up early.” 

“Ok. Be good. Send me a message later to let me know you’ve got to your bed safely.” 

Valeria smiled. She was amused. “Alright.” 

After hanging up, Valeria was preparing to take a shower. 

As soon as she walked into the bathroom, she received a call from Simon. She hesitated to answer the call. However, she picked up in the end. 

“Why are you calling me?” 

“Are you not going out at all? Are you just going to wait for Hackett to come back?” The man’s tone on the phone was full of mockery. It sounded as if he found it ridiculous. 

Valeria leaned against the door frame. “Why is it your business? I want to stay at home.” 

“What about the child? He doesn’t have to go to school anymore? Do you think it’s wise to delay the child’s studies like this?” 

“It’s just a kindergarten. He will not die if he skips a few days. Thanks for your concern. However, it’s a pity that it’s unnecessary.” 

Valeria wanted to hang up, but Simon said, “You’ve always denied that the child is not mine, but all the evidence proves that the child is mine. I don’t know what you’re denying and what’s the point.”

Chapter 386- 

“Is it that fake DNA test report? I don’t believe it at all. When Hackett returns, I’ll ask him to do a DNA test to show you. Besides, what evidence do you have other than that DNA test?” 

90% 

“I found the eyewitness in the hotel back then. You were the one who entered my room and then went out disheveled after staying the entire night. How about that?” 

Valeria was dumbfounded. What was going on? She did not understand at all. 

“Mr. Lawrence, I admire you for being able to find so much unreliable evidence. There’s nothing true.” She was upset. 

Fortunately, her mind was clear. Otherwise, she would have almost been brainwashed by him. 

“Believe it or not, the video has already been sent to your email. If you’re interested, you can take a look. I’m still looking for other evidence, but the most powerful evidence is the DNA test, but you don’t believe it.” 

“I don’t believe you at all. Not at all. I’ll believe you if you do another DNA test in Creyque.” 

Who was he trying to scare with that DNA test not done in Silverbrookian? 

“Since Ms. Sharp said so, I’ll do it. However, what if you still refuse to admit it when the results are out?” 

Valeria said, “If the results of the DNA test you did in Creyque still establish a father–son relationship, I won’t have any complaints. I’ll return the child to you! But that’s impossible. I gave birth to this child. How can I not know whose it is?” 

What a joke! 

Other than Hackett, Alex’s biological father could not be anyone else. Valeria was determined. 

“You’d better keep your 

word.” 

Valeria was stunned for a moment. She mocked. “You’d better practice what you preach as well.” 

Simon snorted. He did not want to argue further. 

Neither of them talked any further. 

Valeria felt that she was wasting time speaking to him. She hung up the phone. 

Valeria stood before the sink and looked at herself in the mirror. She had to hold on until Hackett returned before they could go out. Otherwise, things would be tricky if Lawrence decided to kidnap. 

After all, the Lawrence family was not to be trifled with. 

Valeria knew that well. 

For the next four days, Valeria and her boy hid at home. They did not leave the house until Hackett returned. 

Tyler spoke to Valeria. “I’m going to the airport to pick Mr. James up. Do you want to come along? 

“Alright, I have something to tell him. I can’t delay it any longer 

Valeria was going. She also had to bring Alex along. It took her a while to find Alex. He was building blocks. 

“Alex, let’s go to the airport to pick Daddy up. Daddy is coming back.” 

The little one ignored her. He snorted and continued to play with his toys. 

Valeria walked over and patted her son’s little head. “Mommy is talking to you. Why did you snort? Only little piglets snort.”

Chapter 380 

“One can snort even if he’s not a piglet. Daddy doesn’t keep his word. I don’t like Daddy” 

His Daddy had promised to be back in three days, but he did not return after Alex counted for three days. He had been sulking ever since. 

“He’s busy. He’s back now, and he even brought you a gift. Don’t you want to take a look?” 

“I do, but I still hate it when Dad goes back on his word.” 

90% 

Valeria squatted down and coaxed him. “Then let’s go find Daddy and let Daddy apologize to you in person, alright? Give Daddy a chance.” 

“Ok then.” The little one looked reluctant. 

Tyler shook his head helplessly. If Mr. James saw this, he would probably vomit blood from anger. 

The three of them set off for the airport. 

It took an hour to reach the airport. They waited for Hackett to come out. 

When Hackett walked out of the exit, Valeria’s eyes lit up. She could recognize his tall figure straightaway. 

“Alex, go quickly. It’s Daddy. Daddy is out.” Valeria urged Alex to run over. However, the little one was still angry and did not move. He crossed his arms and snorted. 

Valeria shrugged helplessly at Hackett and mouthed. “Your son is angry.” 

Hackett immediately understood. He looked at Alex. His lips curled into a doting smile as he walked to Alex and picked him up. “Let me see whose child is angry with his Daddy, alright?” 

The little one pouted before raising his chin proudly. He still refused to look at his father.
