Seeing that Hackett did not say anything. Valeria sneered and turned to walk into the guest room. 

Valeria wanted to quickly take a shower, change her clothes, and leave. 

While Valeria was showering and changing, Hackett stood outside the door and smoked one cigarette after another. Hackett did not believe Valeria’s words completely, and he was seriously thinking about whether Valeria was speaking the truth. 

The door opened with a bang. Valeria had already changed into clean clothes and walked out of the room. 

Valeria said to Hackett expressionlessly, “Thank you.” 

Then, Valeria walked towards the elevator without looking back, Valeria didn’t want to stay here for a second longer. 

Hackett followed behind her and said, “I can understand why you couldn’t help but hit her the other day when you went to see her.” 

Hackett thought, “After all if it had not been for Cheryl, Valeria’s child wouldn’t have been aborted back then.” 

“No, you don’t understand. You still don’t understand why I hate Cheryl so much, but I don’t want you to understand now, either. 

Valeria stood in front of the elevator and looked at the man beside her. Hackett and Alex really looked alike. As expected of a biological father and son. 

Valeria admitted that during this period of time, she had thought many times about letting them acknowledge each other. However, Valeria had completely dispelled this thought now. 

It was better to let Alex grow up by her side. Naturally, Alex would be able to enjoy wealth and glory if he returned to the James family. However, many women had their eyes on the position of the James family’s young mistress. To obtain this position, Valeria could not imagine what they might do to Alex. 

Moreover, Hackett could not differentiate when girls were scheming or bitchy. This was too dangerous. 

Valeria had raised her son well for the past four years. In the future, she could still raise him until he became an adult. 

“Then tell me. How would I know if you don’t tell me?” Hackett was getting more and more confused about what Valeria was thinking. Her words were always unclear as if there was a hidden meaning in her words. 

The elevator door opened with a ding. Valeria was about to enter, completely ignoring Hackett. 

Hackett grabbed Valeria’s hand and couldn’t help but say, “Stop going on blind dates. You won’t like those men. Don’t waste any more time. It will only make me frustrated. I know you’re deliberately trying to make things difficult for me. You’ve achieved your goal. You don’t have to go on blind dates anymore.” 

Knowing Valeria was going on blind dates with other men made Hackett uncomfortable. It almost felt like thousands of ants were gnawing at his heart. 

“Even before you slapped me, you had no right to ask this of me. After that slap you gave me, you have even less right to ask this of me. Mr. James, please consider your current position.” Valeria’s voice was cold as if she did not care about Hackett at 

all. 

Hackett’s handsome face tensed up as he said sternly, “Valeria Sharp, what do I have to do for you to give me a chance?” 

Hackett really wanted to know how to make Valeria open her heart and accept him. 

Now, no matter what Hackett did, Valeria chose to ignore him and refused to accept him at all. Hackett did not know what to

1. do. 

Valeria glanced sideways at him and said calmly, “Do you want to know?” 

Hackett stared intently at her exquisite face, waiting for Valeria’s answer. 

“Kneel before me.” 

“Kneel…?” Hackett thought to himself.

Shock appeared in Hackett’s dark eyes. Hackett had never knelt to anyone, not even his grandfather or father. Now, Valeria was asking him to kneel before her. 

Valeria shook off Hackett’s hand and walked into the elevator before the elevator door slowly closed. 

Of course, Valeria knew that Hackett could not do it. How could a chosen one like Hackett kneel down to a woman so easily? Even if Hackett went bankrupt, he would probably not kneel to anyone. 

Valeria wanted to ask for something that she knew was impossible to make things difficult for Hackett and make him give 

1. up. 

Hackett would probably rather die than kneel before someone. 

Valeria knew Hackett too well. Hackett wouldn’t be able to do it, even at the cost of his life. 

Hackett stood in front of the floor–to–ceiling window upstairs and watched Valeria enter the car before the driver drove away. 

Hackett’s dark eyes were filled with frustration. 

Valeria was determined to cut ties with him. 

Asking him to kneel was impossible. He was Hackett James! He had never knelt before anyone. No one was worthy of that! 

Hackett’s phone vibrated. 

Hackett glanced at it. It was a call from Cheryl, but he had no desire to answer the phone. 

Hackett’s phone kept ringing as if it was going to ring until he answered the call. 

Hackett picked up the phone with an irritated expression. “What else do you want to say?” 

“Hackett, you’re too much. You deleted all the comments on the Internet that were beneficial to me and even sued all the weekly entertainment gossip websites that helped me clarify the facts. Do you hate me that much? Or do you love Valeria that much? Why are you defending her like this even though she did something wrong? Didn’t you see what happened to my face? The doctor said that it’s very likely that I won’t be able to recover fully. What should I do? What should I do?” 

On the phone, Cheryl seemed to have lost all her composure. Hackett had thwarted Cheryl’s meticulous plan, and her plan could not be carried out. Cheryl was so angry that she was about to go crazy. 

Hackett said in a deep voice, “If it weren’t for you, Valeria wouldn’t have aborted her child four years ago. If it weren’t for you, she wouldn’t have to live a wandering life for four years.” 

On the other end of the phone, Cheryl was stunned for a long time. “So you’re saying that I deserve to be disfigured? Do I deserve to be treated like this? Hackett James, are you even human?”
