Marriage Resumption (Valeria and Hackett) novel Chapter 195

Chapter 195 

Hackett looked at his grandfather’s furious expression and remained silent. 

After a while, he slowly got up and left the study without saying word. 

Barron watched him leave and snorted angrily. Sitting on the chair, he panted heavily. 

Standing in the courtyard of the old mansion, Hackett looked back at the window of the study upstairs.. 

Now, he could not be sure if Alex had been hidden by his grandfather. How was he going to explain it to Valeria? He was worried. 

The man pinched his brow with his slender fingers as he contemplated his next steps, feeling utterly lost. 

Maybe he should start investigating that amusement park. 

Hackett’s sleepless night had begun… 

Meanwhile, Valeria was in River Valley 

The next day, early morning, Valeria slowly opened her eyes. 

She did not dare check what time it was. If it was still midnight, she would have to start another long ordeal.. 

She looked at the bed, disappointment filling her eyes. There was no sign of Alex sitting there, watching her. 

Was Barron still unwilling to return Alex? Had Hackett not convinced his grandfather? 

She wondered if Hackett was working with his grandfather to take Alex away. 

Valeria closed her eyes again, but she couldn’t fall asleep anymore. She reached for her phone and checked the screen. It was already eight in the morning. 

Then why Alex was still not in front of her bed….. 

Valeria sat up and found Hackett’s phone number in the contact list. However, she hesitated if she should call him. 

Although she had already known that she would only be able to hear Hackett’s excuses when she called to ask about Alex, she still couldn’t help but make a call…. 

Beep… Beep……. 

The call connected, and a man’s deep voice came from the other side. “You’re awake?” 

“How is it? Is there any 

continue to lie to hews of Alex?” She was still looking forward to Hackett’s answer. Would he tell her the truth or 

One second. 

Two seconds. 

Three seconds. 

As expected, Hackett replied, “Not yet. I’m still looking for him. 

She had a bitter smile on her face.

Chapter 195 

Between her and Barron, Hackett still chose to protect his grandfather and continued to lie to her. 

Valeria asked again, “When will we be able to find Alex? I miss him. I really miss him. I didn’t sleep well last night.“ 

“Valeria, I’m sorry. I am trying my best. We will bring him home soon, alright?” 

“Alright, I understand.” 

After hanging up the phone, Valeria lifted the blanket on her body and went to the bathroom to wash up. 

Standing in front of the bathroom mirror, she examined her reflection. Despite what seemed like a full night’s sleep, she had spent 

the night in a restless dream, and her face appeared a bit fggard. 

“Alex, do you miss Mommy?” she asked herself in the mirror. 

She then turned silent. 

Hackett glanced at his phone screen after ending the call, sensing that Valeria’s mood was off. 

He had investigated for the entire night, and it seemed that Alex was seriously not in Barron’s hands. Where was Alex…. 

After racking his brains for the whole night, he still couldn’t figure out how a three–year–old child could have disappeared in the surveillance video. He had searched all the surveillance cameras in the amusement park, but he didn’t find Alex after the carousel stopped. 

Tyler returned to the office with the breakfast he had bought. 

“Mr. James, take a break. You’ve been watching the surveillance footage all night,” Tyler said and placed the breakfast on the reception area’s sofa.. 

Hackett leaned against the desk with his hand on his forehead and closed his eyes to rest. He felt a splitting headache. 

The side effect of watching the surveillance footage for the entire night was that his vision was a bit blurry. 

“Any news from your end?” 

Tyler did not say anything, which meant there was no news. 

A hint of disappointment appeared in Hackett’s dark eyes. 

His phone rang again, and it was his grandfather. 

Hackett looked at the caller ID on his phone screen and refused to pick up the call for a long time. Finally, he still picked up the call. ‘Grandpa…” 

“Have you found Alex, you useless fucker?” 

“Not yet.” 

“What? It’s been a whole night, and you still haven’t found the child? Investigate all the enemies of the James family. See if it could be a revenge kidnapping.” 

“I understand. I have been checking the list. Talk to you later, bye 

On the other end of the phone, Barron shouted again, “I’ll wait for you in the manort Report to me if there’s any news. If you need any connections, come and find me.” 

“Yeah, sure.”

Chapter 193 

Hackett was now certain that Alex was indeed not in Barron’s hands. Otherwise, he would not been in such a hurry 

However, where was his son… 

He wished that he could have found Alex immediately. 

At the same time, his son was looking for him as well. 

There was a visitor in the police station 

A cute boy sat in a chair, sipping a bottle of yogurt, his short legs swinging in the air. 

“Are you still hungry? Do you want more?” A police officer squared down and asked patiently as she pointed at the boy’s belly. 

However, Alex looked unhappy. “Excuse me, I’m already three years old. You don’t need to talk to me like this. I know what
