Marriage Resumption (Valeria and Hackett) novel Chapter 353

Chapter 353 

The corners of Valeria’s lips curled up. She reckoned that if Hackett knew about it, he would die of anger on the spot. 

A lie detector for Hackett? 

It was fun just thinking about it. 

Everyone at the dining table had ulterior motives. Clayton wanted to test Hackett’s character. If he did not dare to come, there must be something wrong. 

If he came, he would ask all the questions he wanted to ask. 

Elsie was the happiest because she felt that she was about to be able to clear her grievances. This time, whether Hackett came or not, he was dead meat. 

If he came, that would prove her innocence. It would prove she wasn’t lying even more if he didn’t come. 

In any case, it was in her favor because she was 100% sure the man that night was Hackett. She had never thought of a second possibility. 

If the man that night was not Hackett but some wild man, Elsie did not dare to imagine. She felt that she might break down and go completely crazy. 

“A lie detector?” 

As expected, Hackett’s pitch–black eyes were filled with disbelief 

To think that this old crafty man could think of it. He actually wanted to use a lie detector to test the authenticity of his words. 

It was an insult to his character! 

Tyler, standing beside, tried his best to hold back his laughter. He never thought Hackett would one day be asked to use a he detector. This was simply ridiculous. 

However, he forced himself to hold back his laughter and asked. Then… are you going or not?” 

To be honest, it was very embarrassing whether he went or not. But he still had to make a choice. 

If he went, his character would be insulted. If he didn’t go, it would seem like he had tacitly agreed that the man that night was him. 

Hackett wanted to strangle the bastard who slept with Elsie that night. Why did he use his name to sleep with Elsie and cause him so much trouble? 

Hackett’s face darkened as he glanced at Tyler coldly. “I’ll Go! What if I don’t go? They would think that I’m guilty.” 

“Mr. James, I think so too. If we don’t go, we’ll look guilty. It’s just a lie detector. If you’re not lying, the lie detector won’t detect anything.” Tyler explained to him solemnly. In the end, Mr. James gave him a cold look, and he instantly shut up. 

Hackett sneered. “You seem very excited. Are you very interested in the lie detector?” 

“No… I only want to see what the lie detector looks like. The lie detector that old crafty man Clayton used must have been imported from abroad…” As he spoke, Tyler revealed his thoughts. He wanted to see what Mr. James looked like when he was tested by the lie detector on the spot. 

It was interesting just thinking about it, aha…

Hackett scoffed 

It seemed Clayton, the old crafty man, did not believe him. Instead, he believed Elsie’s words. However, it was understandable. After all, he was his biological daughter. 

However, it was a little disgusting to ask him to use a lie detector 

Night fell 

Hackett arrives at the Maddox’s villa as promised. When he entered, a soft little body pounced into his arms and called, “Daddy! I missed you so much Long time no see! 

He had indeed not come to see this little guy for a few days. The few days, he had been busy investigating the thing about Elsie. Coupled with a lot of work in the company, he did not have time to come.

The man picked up his son. “I miss you too. I’ve been a little busy with work recently. I’ll pick you up from school each day when I’m done, okay?” 

“Yay! The little one hugged the man’s neck happily. He was a miniature version of Hackett. 

Valeria walked over and gently patted the little one’s butt. “Alex, you should take a shower. Julia has been looking for you.” 

“I don’t want to, I want to play with Daddy. I haven’t seen Daddy in a long time.” The little one hugged the man’s neck tightly as if someone would separate them. 

“Play with Daddy after you shower. Otherwise, your daddy doesn’t want to play with you when you 

stink” 

The little one looked at Hackett. “Daddy, do you despise me? Do I stink?” 

Hackett was very cooperative and deliberately leaned forward to smell it. He frowned and said, “It does stink a little. Why don’t you take a shower, and Daddy will look for you later?” 

Then… alright.” 

Valeria took her son back into her arms and handed him to Julia beside her. She said, “Be good and go take a shower with Julia. Your daddy will look for you after the shower.” 

“Mommy, don’t lie to me.” 

“I won’t lie to you.” 

After Julia left with the little one, only Valeria and Hackett were there. The atmosphere became a little awkward. 

“Are you prepared?” 

“What’s there to prepare?” Hackett asked. 

Valeria chuckled. “I thought you wouldn’t come. I wonder if this lie detector is accurate.” 

Hackett didn’t say anything. 

Hackett’s expression darkened. After looking around and seeing no one was around, he suddenly pulled Valeria into his arms and wrapped his arms around her slender waist. 

“What are you doing? We’re in the Maddox family residence! Valeria’s expression instantly changed. She looked around and didn’t see anyone, but it would be awkward if someone saw them 

However, the man did not care. He lowered his head and approached her. He said in a low voice, “Anyone can choose not to believe me, including the lie detector, but you can’t choose not to believe me.”
