Chapter 201
“You guys can go back first, Hackett said.
Valeria nodded and bent down to lift up the baby in her arms.
She knew what Hackett meant and did not want to cause any trouble for him. In this situation, she could only leave with the child first.
She just wanted to send her grandfather off for the last tinte..
Unexpectedly, Alex suddenly shouted at Mandy. “My mommy is not a jinx. You are the jinx!”
The child’s voice was sharp and crisp, attracting everyone’s attention.
Valeria was also stunned. She really did not expect Alex to be so protective of her. Moreover, did this little guy really know what a jinx meant?
Mandy was also stunned. Then, she said sternly, “Valeria, what a good son you raised! What kind of person can raise such a child? If this is really a child of the James family, he can be considered ruined by you.”
Mandy’s words were sarcastic and mean. She looked down on Vileria from the bottom of her heart, and she looked down on Valeria’s biological family even more.
“Mandy, there’s a child present, don’t speak too harshly,”
Valeria did not want to say anything too unpleasant in front of Alex. She turned around and was about to leave.
Unexpectedly, Mandy became even more ve and chased after her. “With your background, what right do you have
to give birth to a child of the James family? You dlain this child belongs to the James family. Why should we believe you?” “Enough! Tyler Hughes! Kick her out!”
Hackett finally couldn’t take it anymore and roared angrily
Tyler, who was watching the show, was shocked. However, he quickly got ready and replied, “Yes!”
He walked up to Mandy and said, “Madam, I’m sorry.”
“What are you doing? How dare you t
touch met Leave me alone
Mandy said angrily with a look of disdain. At this moment, she actually looked like a mental patient. Everyone present began to gradually believe that Mandy was indeed mentally unstable.
Tyler ignored Mandy’s resistance and pulled her away from the funeral.
“Hackett! I’m your mother. How can you
you treat me like this? Are you going to side with an outsider! I’m your mother?”
No matter what Mandy said, Hackett stood there expressionlessly
Seeing that Tyler was about to drag Mandy out of the door, Hackett spoke again, “Tyler, send my mother to the sanatorium as soon as possible. She has been a little delirious recently and attacks people randomly. Everyone, please don’t mind her,”
“Got it!”
The sanatorium!
Mandy’s eyes
widened in horror. It was not easy for her to get out of there, and now he wanted to send her back!

Chapter 201
She shook her head frantically. “No, not Son! Mommy was wrong. Don’t send me there!”
No matter how Mandy shouted, Hackett remained unmoved.
The people who came to pay their respects started discussing…
“I’ve long heard that the James family’s son and daughter–in–law have gone overseas to settle down. Why does Mandy look so crazy? Has she been in the sanatorium all this time? What about the James family’s son?”
“Shush. Don’t ask about matters relating to the James family. The more you know, the more trouble you will get.”
“Everyone in the James family is so mysterious. I don’t even know how Barron suddenly passed away. Did he die from an illness or an accident?”
“Who knows? And who’s that girl with the baby?”
“Don’t you guys think that the little boy in her arms looks like Mr James? Could he be Mr. James’s illegitimate child?”
Listening to the discussions, Valeria hugged the baby in her arms tightly and picked up her pace to leave the place.
Hackett stood there and clenched his fists.
Because he married Valeria in secret back then, almost no one knew about this marriage, let alone understand the existence of this child.
After this funeral, he would announce his son’s existence to the public.
He would never allow his son to be labeled an illegitimate child.
Just as Valeria was about to walk out of the door with the child in her arms, Ernest suddenly appeared and shouted, “You murderer! How dare you come to Mr. Barron’s funeral
As soon as these words were spoken, there was an uproar.
With the James family’s influence in society, the people who came to pay their respects today were either rich or noble. All of them were influential people in their industry, but when they heard Ernest’s words, they were still shocked.
“What’s going on? A murderer?”
“I know this person. He’s the butler of Barron. He’s been with Barron for many years. When I visited Barron in the past, it was him who brought me to see him.”
“Good lord, a murder case is involved? In other words, Barron didn’t die a normal death?”
Valeria froze on the spot after being shouted at by Ernest.
Her ears were filled with surrounding discussions, She felt like her head was about to explode.
Alex looked at the old man with a white beard in front of him and said in a childish voice “My mommy is not a murderer.”
At this moment, Valeria really wanted to cry.
