Chapter 92
Hackett returned to the car and was silent for a long time.
Tyler sat in the driver’s seat and didn’t dare to speak. He could only accompany him in silence.
The car was silent except for the sound of raindrops hitting the window.
After some time, the man’s deep voice slowly sounded in the ca “What kind of person do you think Cheryl is? Can her words be trusted?”
Tyler seriously thought about his impression of Cheryl in the past and said, “I think Ms. Yeats is an innocent little girl. To put it bluntly, she’s just a little romantic and doesn’t have much ambition. She only wants to revolve around you every day. As for her words, they should be trustworthy.”
In Tyler’s impression, Cheryl was just a little girl. There was nothing worth analyzing.
Hackett stared at the raindrops outside the car window. Suddenly, he started to feel a headache again. His slender fingers pinched the space between his eyebrows.
If Valeria was not lying and Cheryl was not lying either…..
Then, on the night of the celebratory feast, could it be that he had slept with these two women?
That was simply impossible.
The more he thought about it, the more his head hurt.
Tyler could also tell that something was wrong with him. He spoke nervously, “Mr. Jarnes, let’s return to the hospital. You can’t keep on ruining your health like this. If anything happens to you, Barron will definitely not let me off
He could imagine how angry Barron would be if he found out he had helped get Mr. James discharged without his permission. He might even be so angry that he would be hospitalized.
Shut up! Drive me home!”
Hackett held his forehead and leaned against the car seat with his eyes closed. He seemed to be very uncomfortable. “Mr. James! Just listen to me. This car accident is quite serious, and I suspect it might be man–made,‘ said Tyler.
Hackett suddenly opened his eyes. “What did you say?”
Tyler frowned. “I’m not sure either. It just feels like it’s not an accident…”
“What evidence did you find?”
Tyler thought about it again and again. Initially, he didn’t want to tell Mr. James about these things because there was no conclusive evidence after all. However, he found something abnormal from many small clues.
“There were no surveillance cameras at the scene, and from the content captured on the dashcam, the car seemed to have lost control before the accident, so I checked the car inside and out. There seemed to be something wrong with the steering -wheel and brakes, but ordinary people wouldn’t notice it.”
Hackett squinted his eyes and carefully recalled the details of the day of the car accident.
The rain was very heavy that day. He had always thought that it was because he had not seen the road clearly that he had suddenly driven into the forest. However, now that he thought about it, it did seem a little strange.

Logically speaking, withrhis driving skills, even if he drove into the forest, the car would, at most, be scratched. He could not remember how he ended up in a toppled–over car.
“Mr. James, I can’t find conclusive evidence now, so I can’t just say it was a man–made accident. Perhaps I’m overthinking” Tyler didn’t dare to jump to conclusions.
Hackett looked at the raindrops outside the car window and fell silent. No one knew what he was thinking.
It was another rainy day. She had been annoyed by the rain for the past
few days.
Because it was the weekend, she slept in. When she woke up, it was almost noon.
That
brat, Alex, was brought to the children’s playground by Ella She was happy to relax and enjoy a leisure weekend.
Suddenly, she felt a little hungry. She went downstairs to the kitchen to cook something to eat.
In the afternoon, she had an appointment with a client to discuss work. She just needed to fill her stomach.
Her phone rang while she was cooking the spaghetti. She picked it up and stirred the spaghetti noodles with her free hand.
Keith’s voice came from the other end of the call. “What are you doing at home on the weekend?”
“I’m enjoying some time alone. What’s wrong? Boss wants me to work overtime again!” quipped Valeria.
“Not really. I just want to ask you and Alex out for a meal. Are you free? The fish I ordered has arrived. It’s very fresh, Alex likes to eat fish. I’ll make it for you.”
Valeria smiled. “No need. That brat is having fun with the new nanny. He went to the children’s playground.”
“Oh…. Alright then. What about you? What are you having for lunch? Why don’t you come over and have a meal with me? It’s really boring to cook alone.”
Although she was a little embarrassed to reject him, she still had to reject him. Tll have to reject your offer too. You should enjoy it with Miss Landor. I’ve cooked some spaghetti to eat. I still have to meet a client in the afternoon.”
“Valeria, I have to explain to you that Sherri and I have nothing to do with each other anymore. I have no intention of continuing our relationship.”
“It’s up
up to you. You don’t have to explain to me. It’s none of my business anyway. Since you’re not interested in Miss Landor, you can get a new girlfriend. You’re already old. It’s time for you to get into a new relationship.”
Valeria knew what Keith meant. But even without Sherri, she and Keith seemed unlikely.
Not to mention that Keith was very outstanding, and she was divorced and had a child. She could not accept Keith’s suggestion of a marriage without love.
She could tell that Keith still had his ex–girlfriend in his heart. He probably had a grudge from being abandoned back then, which was why he refused to get back together now,
On the other end of the call, Keith also understood what she meant. He could only change the topic to ease the atmosphere. “By the way, I heard Hackett was in a car accident. You didn’t visit him?”
Valeria frowned. “You do get news quick. How did you even know about this?”
