Chapter 128
Mister?
Hearing this brat call him Mister, Hackett finally reacted. This brat was calling him, and it wasn’t a dream.
Although he was a little angry, the child did not know him yet. It was already polite for him to call him mister.
“I’m… your mommy’s friend.”
Hackett sat up straight and answered his question seriously. Then, he stared at the little thing in front of him and scanned his little face inch by inch. As expected of his son. The boy looked exactly like him when he was younger.
“Oh… Mister, is this your car? It’s so cool. It’s different from the gift Mommy bought for me. The one Mommy bought is so small.”
Alex was curiously observing the sports car in front of him. He wished he could climb into the car and take a look.
Seeing his excited eyes, Hackett smiled. This kid was just like him. He was interested in sports cars.
“You like it? Come in and take a look?” Hackett lured the little brat in front of him.
Alex’s eyes lit up. “Really? But Mommy said not to touch other people’s things.”
“You won’t be doing it without permission. You have my permission. It’s okay.”
The car door slowly opened. The man stood up and left the car. He glanced at the little kid in front of him and said in a low voice, “Go in and have a sit.”
Alex revealed a surprised smile. “Thank you, Mister, but don’t tell Mommy. Otherwise, Mommy will nag.”
With that, the little guy stuck out his butt and climbed into the driver’s seat. His chubby little hands were holding the steering wheel, and his face was filled with excitement.
“Wow! Mister, your car is so cool. I want to buy this kind of car when I grow up.”
Looking at Alex’s excited eyes, a smile appeared on Hackett’s lips. He could not help but stroke Alex’s fluffy head. “What’s your name?”
“My name is Alex.”
Alex…
The man repeated the name in his heart.
It turned out that his son’s name was Alex. It turned out that he had brushed past his son countless times.
The last time he met Valeria and Keith in the restaurant, the little boy in Keith’s arms was his son…
And he only saw the back of his head. He didn’t see anything else.
Also, when Valeria begged him to save the child, he did not even take a single look even though the child had been found. If he could put down his prejudice at that time and take a look at the child, he would probably be able to recognize that it was his child at a glance.
When he thought of these moments when they brushed past each other, there was only regret in his heart.
Fortunately, he finally saw this little guy’s true appearance last night. He looked so similar to him. Who dared to say that he

was not his son?

Suddenly, Valeria’s voice infiltrated his world. “Alex! You’re going to be late for school and you’re still fooling around here!”
The man’s thoughts were pulled back to reality.
Valeria frowned and walked to the front of the car. Alex pouted and obediently climbed out of the car again. He muttered, “Mommy, you’re so fierce. Hmph!”
“What are you mumbling about? Hurry up! You’re a man and you’re dilly–dallying. If you’re a man, you have to be fast.” Valeria held his small hand.
Alex looked unconvinced. “I haven’t grown up yet. I’m not a man.”
Seeing the mother and son bickering, Hackett couldn’t help but smile. It was warm and cute. How many such moments had he missed in the past four years?
Seeing that Valeria was about to pull the child to her car, he grabbed Valeria’s wrist.
“What?” Valeria turned around in confusion.
“I’ll send you guys there.”
“There’s no need. I can…”
Before Valeria could finish speaking, Alex screamed in shock, “Mommy! Let this man send me. I want to take this car. It’s so cool!”
She was speechless. This little brat really despised the poor and loved the rich. He was instantly won over by just a car? She thought that this little brat would reject Hackett, but she didn’t expect….
Alex held her hand and started to wheedle. “Mommy… Mommy… I want to sit in this car. Just once, okay?”
Hackett carried the little guy and said, “Let me help you decide. We’ll take this car to school today.”
“Yay! That’s great!” The little guy was so happy that he almost jumped up and crawled into the backseat of the car.
Valeria was speechless. This was the son she had raised for four years, the warm little boy who had touched her countless times… He had been bought over by Hackett, his despicable father, just like that.
“Hackett…”
“What? Didn’t you say you were in a hurry? Get in.” Hackett also got into the driver’s seat and fastened his seatbelt.
The father and son looked up at Valeria at the same time, waiting for her to get into the car.
Could this be the tacit understanding between biological father and son? And they looked so similar…
Helpless, Valeria could only sit in the front passenger seat and fasten her seatbelt. She glanced at the little brat in the backseat and said, “Alex, I’m warning you to sit still. Otherwise, we’ll get out of the ear immediately.”
“Oh, okay.” Alex immediately sat down obediently and stopped making a fuss.
However, Hackett still had a doting smile on his face. He started the car and slowly left Starry Bay.
