Chapter 55
In the villa
Valeria was busy cooking fish. She took a sip of the stewed fish soup. The taste seemed to be a little faint.
“Ava, help me get the salt.”
There was
no response for a long time. Valeria turned around and saw that Ava was no longer in the kitchen.
Where did Ava go? She was clearly helping Valeria cook in the kitchen just now. Why did she disappear in the blink of an eye?
Valeria called out again. “Ava?”
At this moment, Ava returned to the kitchen in a panic. “Ms. Sharp, I’m here! What’s wrong?”
“Where have you been? Help me get the salt. It tastes a little bland, Valeria could not help but ask.
Ava went to get the salt and handed it to Valeria. She smiled guiltily and said, “I went to take a call and see what Alex was doing. I didn’t expect him to be so obedient. He kept sitting in the dining room waiting for you. I asked him to watch cartoons for a while, but he didn’t go. He said that he would be the first person you would see when you came out with the dishes.”
Valeria revealed a gratified smile. Her son was her pride.
“He’s been sticking to me since he was born.
Ava couldn’t help but ask, “Ms. Sharp, don’t blame me for being nosy. The child’s growth path also requires the father’s company. Are you really not planning to reconcile with Alex’s father? Especially since boys still need the father’s company.”
Valeria’s smile gradually disappeared. She frowned unhappily. Ava, this is my private matter. It’s not within your job scope. You just have to take good care of Alex.”
“Oh, I know. I’m just curious why you never mention Alex’s father. I don’t mean anything else.”
“It will be okay after another ten minutes‘ stewing. Bring the dishes out later. I’ll go out first.”
Valeria did not want to talk to Ava anymore. She turned around and left the kitchen.
To be honest, this servant was not bad in all aspects, but she was too curious. She always asked Valeria about Alex’s father, and she felt like a gossipy woman.
If not for the fact that Ava had taken good care of Alex, Valeria would have fired her long ago. It was very annoying to ask about one’s privacy all day.
Valeria went to the dining room to take a look and realized that Alex was really sitting there obediently, waiting for the meal to start. He was quite respectful of Valeria’s culinary skills.
Valeria could not help but chuckle. She walked over and knocked Alex’s head gently.
“Are you hungry?”
“Mommy, I’ve been hungry for a long time. When are we eating Alex lay on the dining table, looking weak and adorable,
“It won’t be long now. It will be fine in another ten minutes. Just bang in there.
“Okay.”

At this moment, Valeria’s phone rang. She glanced at it and saw that it
Valeria glanced at Alex and picked up the phone. “What’s the matter?”
was Hackett.
The man’s deep, sexy voice came from the other end of the line. “You moved to avoid me on purpose?”
Valeria replied calmly, “You can think of it that way. Why did you come looking for me?”
“Nothing. I just wanted to see you.”
Valeria was a little speechless. This man’s nature was really hard to change. He was still so domineering.
Valeria was a little impatient. “If there’s nothing else. I’m hanging up. I’m busy.”

“What are you busy with? Being Keith’s son’s stepmother? Don’t forget how you enjoyed being under me. Does Keith know about this?” The man’s tone was filled with jealousy and mockery
“Do you have to be so harsh with your words? Get lost!”
Valeria hung up the phone. Her anger was instantly ignited.
This scumbag’s words were unpleasant and explicit. Valeria really wanted to sew up Hackett’s mouth. He only knew how to anger her.
Looking at Valeria’s angry expression, Alex blinked his grape–like eyes and asked in a cute voice, “Mommy, who made you angry?”
HE
At this moment, Ava entered the dining room with the dishes.
Valeria smiled and said, “It’s nothing. Someone was bored and called the wrong number. Let’s eat.
The next day, early morning.
Valeria went to the law office early in the morning and handed Alex to Ava. Before she left, Valeria glanced at her son, who was still sleeping soundly. He was so cute.
Valeria leaned forward and kissed his little face before turning to leave.
However, after Valeria left, Ava woke Alex up and helped him get dressed and wash up.
“Alex, can we not go to kindergarten today?”
Alex’s grape–like eyes instantly widened. “Sure! Mrs. Ava, are you taking me out to play? I won’t tell Mommy. I’ll definitely keep it a secret.”
Children’s nature was to have fun. When Alex heard that he did not have to go to kindergarten, he was naturally overjoyed.
“Alright, you must keep it a secret for me. You’re such a good boy?
After a while. Ava took a call and walked out of the villa with Ale She stuffed him into the car.
The car drove away quickly. Ava looked at the car in the distance and couldn’t help but mutter to herself, Tve done good deeds. What’s wrong with the child meeting his aunt?”
In the car
Alex sat in the back seal of the car and looked at the man who was driving in the front seat. Alex asked in a cute voice, where are you taking me to play?”
