Chapter 66
Five o’clock in the morning.
Ben was afraid of being tracked down by the police, so he did not take the highway. However, he felt that there were a few cars following him.
At first, there was only one car following Ben. He thought that he was too sensitive.
However, after a few cars appeared and seemed to be slowly surrounding him, Ben realized that something was wrong.
Ben drove the car around a small road. He glanced at the little hoy in the backseat and said, “I am going to pee. Wait for me in the car obediently. Do you understand?”
Ben guessed that the police had caught up with him. If they caught him, he would really be done for. At that time, Valeria would do her best to send Ben to jail.
Since they were the police, it should be safe to hand Alex over to them.
Ben deliberately drove the car into a cornfield, then got out of the car and quickly fled.
Alex was left alone in the car with an innocent look on his face. He had no idea what had happened and thought that his grandfather had really gone to pee.
At this moment.
Valeria was sitting in a car at the back. She panicked when she saw the car drive into the cornfield and disappear.
“What does that mean?”
The bodyguard behind the wheel said: “He probably realized we were following him and wanted to escape.”
As he spoke, the driver parked the car by the side of the road. Then, everyone got out of the car and rushed into the cornfield.
Valeria also pushed open the car door and was about to get out, but she was stopped by the bodyguard. “Ms. Sharp, you stay in the car. Leave the rest to us.”
“I want to go down and take a look…”
Before Valeria could finish, the bodyguard interrupted her. “The situation might be dangerous. The kidnapper drove his car into such a place because he wanted to take a hostage. We might not be able to perform well with you around.”
Looking at the well-trained bodyguards, Valeria nodded in agreement. After all, they were all Hackett’s subordinates, so their skills should not be too bad.
Valeria stayed in the car obediently. She was so nervous that a layer of cold sweat broke out on her forehead.
Valeria did not know if they could successfully save Alex.
Valeria’s fingers gripped the hem of her dress tightly, and every second felt like a year..
Through the car window, Valeria watched helplessly as the bodyguards rushed into the cornfield, but they did not come out for a long time.
Could it be that they had encountered some danger?
Valeria’s heart was in her throat. Her nerves were tense. She looked down at the time. It had only been ten minutes.

Chapter 66
Valeria had never felt that time was so long.
It was already dawn. Valeria’s eyes never left the cornfield. She was always watching it, afraid that she would miss the moment they walked out.
Suddenly!
A bodyguard walked out of the cornfield with a little boy in his ans.
It was Alex!
Valeria’s eyes instantly lit up. She could not help but smile. She was so excited that her fingers were trembling. She pushed
the car door and got out.
open
“Alex”
When Alex heard Valeria’s voice, he immediately turned around from the bodyguard’s arms and glanced at her. Alex poured and snorted before turning around and lying on the bodyguard’s broad shoulder, ignoring Valeria.
Valeria was a little dumbfounded. Why was Alex ignoring her? What kind of attitude was this?
But Valeria was so happy. She hadn’t seen Alex for two days.
Valeria went forward and touched Alex’s face. “Alex, I’m talking to you. Why are you ignoring me?
“Humph! Mommy, you didn’t pick up my call last night. Mommy, you don’t care about me at all. You haven’t seen me for so long but you still haven’t picked up my call’ Alex directly complained about his resentment. He was just as straightforward as Hackett.
Valeria’s phone had been switched off. However, Alex had called her? Was the nowadays kidnapper so humane?
“It’s my fault. I’m sorry. I shouldn’t have ignored your call. Let me hug you, okay? I miss you so much…”
Alex looked at Valeria’s aggrieved expression. In the end, he still reached out his small hand and threw himself into her
Valeria hugged her son who had been lost and found. She smiled from the bottom of her heart and hugged this little boy tightly. She could never lose Alex again. It was too heart-wrenching.
Seeing it, Tyler Hughes, the bodyguard, was speechless.
Tyler had been Hackett’s bodyguard for seven years and had witnessed Valeria and Hackett’s marriage. This time, he was in charge of finding the child, but as a bodyguard, he couldn’t stand it anymore.
Why was Valeria treating this boy so well, even to the point where it seemed like he was her own biological son?
But Valeria was just a stepmother. No wonder Hackett was so angry Hackett didn’t even want to come. If Hackett came and saw this scene, he would probably lose his temper on the spot.
“Ms. Sharp, let’s go. We can’t stay here for long. Let’s hurry back to Alcomara.”
“Okay”
Valeria carried Alex into the car and began to carefully check if he was injured. Alex seemed to be fine.
That was great.
Tyler, who was driving, saw Valeria’s actions in the rearview mirror and couldn’t help but remind her, Is. Sharp, don’t blame me for being nosy. You should stop being so good to this child.”

Chapter 66
Valeria was slightly stummed. “What do you mean?”
For a moment, Valeria did not understand what Tyler meant.
Tyler started the car and drove away slowly. He said, “The more you care about this child, the more unhappy Mr. James is. If he’s unhappy, no one will have a good time, including you.”
Valeria didn’t say anything else and just hugged the child tightly in her arms.
A few hours later, they returned to Alcomara.
In Starry Bay,
After Tyler sent Valeria and Alex to the villa, he instructed, “Ms. Sharp, after handing the child to Mr. Cooper, please take the initiative to look for Mr. James, Otherwise, we’ll have to pick you up again.”
“I know.”
Valeria carried the sleeping Alex out of the car. She glanced at Tyler in the car, then turned around and walked into the villa When Valeria walked into the living room, she realized that Keith seemed to have fallen asleep on the sofa.
Valeria was shocked. Could Keith have been waiting here all along?
Hearing footsteps, Keith woke up from his dream and sat up abruptly. Then, he saw Valeria standing there with Alex in her arms. Valeria almost thought that he was dreaming.
“Valeria?” Keith could not believe his eyes. Valeria and Akex were standing right in front of him.
“Keith, we’re back…”
“You found Alex?” Keith looked at the child in Valeria’s arms in disbelief.
“Alex is asleep. I’ll put him in the room first. Wait for me.”
Valeria glanced at Alex who was asleep and signaled Keith to lower his voice.
Keith nodded and watched Valeria carry Alex upstairs.
Alex had been found,
How did Valeria find Alex? How did Valeria find Alex so quickly relying on herself? Could it be that she asked for help for Hackett?
Hackett was willing to help find Alex? Perhaps he had already found Alex was his biological son?
When he thought of this possibility, Keith felt an indescribable suffocation.
