Marriage Resumption (Valeria and Hackett) novel Chapter 231

Chapter 231 

At River Valley. 

Valeria was sulking because Elsie came to 

annoy her. 

Valeria was so angry that she almost laughed out loud. This Elsie was quite interesting Why did she keep coming to find her? Did she not know that Hackett did not care about her feelings at all? 

“Why isn’t Alex back yet… Ella looked at the time and thought that the child should be back by now. 

Only then did Valeria notice that Ella did not pick up the child from school today. 

“Why didn’t you pick up Alex? It’s been a long time since school ended. Valeria couldn’t help but ask Ella. 

Ella replied, “Um… I forgot to tell you. Mr. James called and said that he would pick up Alex from school in the afternoon and have dinner with him before sending him back.” 

“Heh… I don’t know why he’s pretending he cares about Alex at this time. He’s letting his fiancée harass me while pretending to be a good father. What a hypocrite.” 

Ella responded, “So the girl who came today is the person Mr. James is getting engaged to? That girl actually dared to come here to provoke you? Is she crazy?” 

“What else could it be?” 

At this moment, the doorbell rang. 

Valeria walked over to open the door. When she reached the entrance, she saw Hackett holding the child on the doorbell camera screen. What a lovely image of a loving father and his son. However, Hackett was getting engaged to another woman at the end of the month. It was really ironic. 

She opened the door expressionlessly and Alex called out to her happily. “Mommy, I ate a big lobster today! It was so big 

She smiled perfunctorily. “Cot it. Hurry up and take a bath. You can sleep after that. Otherwise, you won’t be able to wake up 

Tomorrow 

The man placed the child on the ground. Alex ran into the house like a wild horse. He could not wait to share his interesting day with Ella. 

Valeria glanced at the little brat behind her, then turned around and said to the man coldly, “Thank you. You can leave now. If you’re busy tomorrow, you don’t have to come and send Alex to school. I’m free these few days anyway 

As she closed the door, Hackett said in a deep voice, “From now on, I’ll pick up him up and send him to school every day.” 

The door slammed shut and Valeria let out a scoff. 

Outside the door, Hackett looked at the closed door and felt lost. 

At this moment, his phone vibrated. 

Hackett looked down and saw that it was from the cunning old fox, Clayton. He could not help but frown. A hint of irritation appeared on his face, but he still picked up the phone. 

“Hi, Mr. Maddox.” 

“Hackett, come to our house tomorrow and have your measurements taken. Elsie will have her measurements taken too. I’ve found a designer to customize your engagement attire. Remember to be on time. This designer was difficult to book.”

Chapter 231 

“Alright, I understand.” 

“Bring your mother over too. The two families can have a meal together. It seems that only your mother can witness your happiness now.” 

Hackett frowned unhappily. Why did Clayton sound like he was mocking Hackett for having no family around? 

However, it was indeed true that his mother was the only elder left in the James family. His grandfather and father had passed away one after another. 

“Mr. Maddox, I can decide on my own matters. There’s no need to look for my mother. I’m the person in charge of the James family now. I have the final say. 

“But no matter what, an elder has to come to witness it. After all, it’s a marriage between two families. I hope your mother will attend the engagement party. 

Hackett started to get impatient. “Mr. Maddox, you’re making things difficult for me. You know that my father and grandfather passed away one after another, and my mother’s mental state isn’t very good. If you insist on inviting my mother, then please go to the sanatorium to invite her yourself. think she doesn’t want to see me now and will go crazy when she sees me.” 

On the other end of the line, Clayton fell silent. He simply thought that it would be more official with an elder around. Since Mandy was crazy, forget it. Otherwise, if she went crazy at the engagement party, the entire Alcomara would be laughing at both their families. 

Then we’ll do as you say. After all, you’re now the head of the entire James family.” 

Yeah 

After hanging up the phone, Hackett suddenly felt vexed. 

He looked up at the closed door in front of him and turned to walk toward the elevator. 

He had only taken two steps when another call came in. He glanced at his phone and saw that it was from Ernest, who had worked for his grandfather for many years. 

Hackett could guess why Ernest called him. Ernest suspected that Valeria killed his grandfather and was going to beg him to investigate the matter. 

Hackett had never doubted Valeria in this matter. He felt that Valeria had no reason to harm his grandfather. Ernest’s stubbornness gave him a headache. 

Firstly, Ernest had worked for his grandfather for many years and had watched Hackett grow up. Hence, Hackett respected Ernest. Secondly, Ernest was the person his grandfather relied on the most in life, so it was impossible that he would lie about something related to his grandfather. 

After much consideration, Hackett picked up the call. 

As soon as the call was connected, Earnet’s voice came through. Mr. James, you’ve finally picked up my call. I’ve found a new witness. I want to see you. Is that okay?” 

A witness? 

This successfully piqued Hackett’s curiosity and he said, “Wait for me in the office. 

Then, Hackett hung up the phone and walked into the elevator. 

James Group, CEO’s office.
