Marriage Resumption (Valeria and Hackett)
Resumption 74

Chapter 74

Valeria didn't want to ask, but Tyler's words piqued her curiosity,

"May I ask how Cheryl's brother died? How tragie was it? Of course, if it's inconvenient for you to say, forget it."

She didn't mean to pry into other people's privacy. She was just little curious.

Tyler seemed reluctantly didn't want to talk about it, so Valeria didn't intend to force him. She planned to turn around and go back to have more sleep. She couldn't leave anyway. Suddenly, Tyler's voice sounded behind her

"Back then, the enemy of Mr. Elon, Mr. James's father, wanted to kidnap Mr. James. During that time, everyone spent each day in danger. So Mr. Elon got an idea to have Abbot disguise himself as Mr. James and become Mr. James' substitute. It would be fine when the police caught that crazy enemy, but...

Valeria stopped in her tracks and slowly turned around. She followed Tyler's words and said, "But before the police caught the enemy. Abbot was kidnapped and treated as Mr. Elon's son and was tortured, right?"

Tyler nodded, and his expression suddenly became a little sad.

"It's not as simple as torture. It's an unimaginable misery. In short, Abbot had been tortured beyond recognition when we arrived at the scene. His fingers were all over the ground. His feet were cut off, his eyeballs were dug out, and his ears were cut off. He was only left with his last breath. He had been holding on until Mr. James came. He wanted to entrust his sister to the care of Mr. James...

Valeria couldn't help.

but cover her mouth when she heard that. Her eyes were filled with fear.

Just hearing these words made her feel pain. She couldn't help but want to cry. How did Abbot last until they appeared? It was too tragic...

Tyler smiled bitterly. "That's why Mr. James remembers it deeply. During that period of time, Mr. James often had nightmares. That's why he made up for all his debts to Cheryl. It's too tragic" Valeria seemed to understand the pain in Hackett's heart a little

Tyler added. "Because of Abbot, Mr. James's relationship with his parents was also bad. He felt that his father's decision killed Abbot, and his father didn't even treat Abbot's life as a human life" Valeria fell silent.

From the looks of it, that was indeed the case. To be so ruthless, there must be a deep hatred.

Speaking of which, she did not seem to have met Hackett's parents but his grandfather after she registered her marriage with Hackett.

"By the way, I don't think I've seen my parents-in-law since I married into the James family. Only Hackett's grandpa has been by his side. Where are his parents?"

It was another topic that kept Tyler silent for a long time. Tyler stopped there. "You should save this question for Mr. James Later. It's not convenient for us to reveal it. ng secret was there?

What shocking

It was almost dark when Hackett finally returned.

Valeria was locked in the bedroom for the entire day and did not go out. When it was time to eat, the servants would bring

the food to her.

She thought she was hallucinating the moment the bedroom door was pushed open.

Valeria sat up in shock when she saw Hackett. "You're finally back Can I leave now?" said Valeria.

Without another word, Valeria stood up and was about to leave. When she walked past Hackett, she was grabbed by him. "Is there nothing you want to ask me?" asked Hackett.

"Ask you?" Valeria looked puzzled. Then, she realized what Hackett meant.

"Well... I've guessed that," said Valeria. "There's no need to ask you. It's probably because Cheryl couldn't take the blow of being abandoned by you and slit her wrist to commit suicide. By the way, how is she? Is her life in danger?" Valeria's sincere concern made Hackett frown. "Do you care about her life?"

Valeria couldn't help but laugh. "No matter how much I hate her, 1 don't want her to die. This is a matter of life and death. It can't be taken lightly

Hackett was silent for two seconds and said, 'She's fine now. Shell be hospitalized for observation. She'll probably stay in the hospital for a few days."

"Well, take good care of her, then." Valeria started to leave, but Hackett refused to let her go.

Valeria lowered her head and looked at her wrist tightly clenched by him. "What else do you want? You've locked me up for an entire day. What more do you want?" said Valeria

"Do you really not want to see me? Do you feel sick every second you spend with me?"

He had lacked Valeria up for an entire day but had not seen her for the whole day. The woman wanted to leave him with reluctance as soon as she saw him, didn't she? "Yes! I don't want to see

yout I don't want to be with you for a second. Are you satisfied?"

Valeria shook off his hand and left the bedroom without looking back.

Hackett did not force Valeria to stay this time. Instead, he let her leave. Looking at the slammed door, his world fell into darkness.

He walked to the soft bed and fell down hard.

The moment Hackett closed his eyes, the tragic scene of Abbot before his death reappeared in Hackett's mind, lingering in front of his eyes.

He repeatedly reminded him it was his responsibility to look after Cheryl, an inescapable one.

At Starry Bay.

After returning home, Valeria quickly ran upstairs to see her baby Alex and found that he was secretly calling Keith again. Why did the little brat not give up on Keith? Helplessly, she had no choice but to go downstairs to make milk for Alex.

When Valeria saw the bodyguard sitting on the sofa in the livingroom, she immediately felt safe. Hackett had lent the bodyguard to her.

She had only lem the bodyguard from Hackett for a week. After a week, she had to replace a bodyguard to protect Alex

Chapter 74

"Well, you can go upstairs and choose a guest room to sleep in a night. Valeria walked to the living room awkwardly and said to the bodyguard.

The bodyguard replied. "No, thanks. Ms. Sharp. I can sleep on the sofa in the living room at night, and I can keep an eye on the surroundings at any time and protect you "Okay. Thank you for your hard work. I'll replace a suitable bodyguard as soon as possible and set you free."

The bodyguard didn't say anything and just nodded. Of course, he still wanted to return to Hackett's side as quickly as possible. After all, he was hired by the James family.

Valeria realized that Alex, the little brat, was still on the phone when she returned to her room.

She walked over with the milk bottle and stuffed it into Alex's mouth. She snatched the phone away and placed it by her ear. "You keep Miss Landor company in the hospital. Alex is insensibile and shouldn't disturb you all the time. I apologize on his behalf

Then she was about to hang up when Keith's voice came from the phone. 'Don't hang up yet!"

"Anything else?"

"Valeria: Sherri poured red wine on you unknowingly. I've explained it to her. She understands everything now."

Valeria said, "So, now you're going to be her defender to sue Hackett? Don't worry. I won't interfere."

"No, that's not what I meant. I just wanted to say there's a misunderstanding between us three that needs to be cleared up
