Chapter 180
Valeria took the tissue and wiped her tears. “Where can we go to and Alex now? I’m very worried about him…
“Just drive back home and wait for me. I’ll go search. Grandpa only has a few places to hide Alex, and if you think about it this way, our son is still in Grandpa’s care. He’s his great–grandson, and his affection for him is no less than ours.”
He planned to look for Alex alone, for Valeria was in no condition to follow him. It was better for her to wait at home.
“No! I want to go with you!” How could she stay at home now? Her mind was filled with thoughts about Alex.
“You…
Hackett wanted to say something, but he was interrupted by Valeria. “I know what you want to say, but I really want to go with you. I can’t stay at home at all I’m quite worried about Alex she said.
“Alright, you drive, and I navigate.” After all, his foot was still injured, so it was difficult for him to drive.
She nodded, calmed herself down, started the car, and drove away slowly.
“Where are we going now?”
Hackett leaned against the car seat and thought about the properties under his grandfather’s name. Where could he hide Alex…
After a while, he said, “Let’s go to the hotel first”
Valeria was stunned for a moment. “Do you think Grandpa would hide Alex in the hotel?”
What was he thinking? Why would Barron hide Alex in the hotel? She seriously couldn’t figure it out.
Hackett said. “You can’t guess what Grandpa is thinking. The most dangerous place is the safest place. Moreover, he knows that we can’t search the hotel at will.
Valeria was left speechless.
Was Grandpa such a calculating person?
Thinking about it, she found Heckett’s words made sense. Barron could control the James family, which meant he was more than just an ordinary old man.
Valeria didn’t say anything else and drove straight to Radisson Blu Hotel, which was owned by James Group.
After arriving at the hotel, Valeria quietly followed behind Hackett. After all, this was the James family’s territory, so he knew better how to deal with the situation.
Hackett and Valeria went straight to the manager’s office.
When the hotel manager saw Hackett, he stood up respectfully and greeted, “Mr. James, what brings you here? How can I help you?”
Hackett sat on the reception area’s sofa and asked, “Did my grandfather ask you to do anything recently?”
The manager was dumbfounded. He had no idea what had happened. He looked at Valeria, then at Hackett. “No, I haven’t received a call from Mr. James in a long time. The last time I saw him was at the birthday banquet. What happened?” he
asked.
Hackett glanced at the manager coldly. “Are you sure? If you dare to hide anything from me, I’ll make sure your career in

Radisson Blu Hotel comes an end. I’m in charge of James Group now, and you should know what I am talking about.
The manager immediately realized the seriousness of the matter. Of course, he knew that Hackett was the one controlling the James family was now. Moreover, he was the future heir. If offended Hackett, he would definitely suffer.
“Mr. James, how would I dare to hide anything from you? I’m telling you the truth. I seriously haven’t seen Mr. James, nor have I received any orders from him recently. I swear on my name. I am not lying” The manager was just short of swearing to the heavens with a loyal expression.
Hackett stood up slowly and said, “If my grandpa contacts you, call me immediately
“Yes, yes, yes. I’ll definitely report it to you if Mr. James contacts the,”
Hackett did not pay more attention to the manager and turned to leave.
Valeria wanted to say something. However, seeing Hackett walk out of the office, she followed him.
The manager heaved a sigh of relief as he watched them leave, for he had thought that Hackett was here to cause trouble for him. He was so frightened that he broke out in a cold sweat.
It seemed that Alex was not in the hotel.
Walking out of the hotel, Valeria walked beside Hackett and couldn’t help but ask, “Are we leaving just like that? Don’t you think we should look around the hotel? What if they really hide Alex in one of the rooms?”
Hackett stopped and answered, “Alex shouldn’t be here. There’s no point in the manager lying to me. Besides, there are Irundreds of rooms here. How long will it take us to search them one by one?”
Valeria didn’t say anything else. However, since she was already here, she did not want to leave without checking around.
“So where should we go next?”
Hackett walked to the front of the car and thought for a few seconds. “Let’s go to Golden Bay. It was Grandma’s favorite place when she was alive. Ever since Grandma passed away, Grandpa hasn’t been there again. He does not want to go there and get
sentimental”
“Then let’s go!”
Valeria quickly opened the door and sat in the driver’s seat, fastening her seatbelt
The two of them arrived at Golden Bay. After getting out of the car, Valeria looked at the villa in front of them. The building looked like it had been vacant for a long time, so she doubted if Barron would hide Alex here.
As soon as Hackett got out of the car and saw the state of the villa, he returned to the car. “Let’s get back to the car. There’s no need to check around. Alex is not here.”
Valeria didn’t hesitate and returned to the car. The villa appeared to have been vacant for a long time, even giving off an
eerie vibe.
“Then where should we go next to find Alex?” She was starting to get impatient, wondering when they could finally find her
son.
Hackett had already sensed her frustration. “Don’t worry, alright We’ll definitely find Alex tonight,” he looked at her side profile and answered.
She was on the edge of breaking down and couldn’t help but complain, “I know, but we re searching aimlessly. When will we find him? I just want to see Alex. I want to see him right now!”
