Marriage Resumption (Valeria and Hackett)

Hackett squinted his eyes in suspicion. Although he did not know what Valeria said, he felt he needed to know.

"Is that so? Don't lie to me."

"I'm not lying to you. The situation was so urgent at that time, and my mind was in a mess. You lost so much blood. I was afraid that you would lose a lot of blood if you passed out. I could only think of a way to keep you awake until the hospital." Valeria had tried her best to appear sincere, but the man still seeined suspicious.

She had no choice but to change the topic, trying to avoid talking about that. "By the way, where's Grandpa? He stayed here last night and wanted to see you wake up. Why did he leave?"

"I don't know." Hackett did not seem to want to say that his grandfather had gone to get his future predicted again.

Valeria raised her wrist to look at the time and said, "Rest well then. I have to go to work. I'm almost an hour late."Content property of NôvelDra/ma.Org.

She was about to get up when the man grabbed her wrist tightly

Valeria looked back at the man's hand. "Why? Do you still have something you want to say? If you need anything, look for Tyler outside. Tyler has been guarding outside. He is really loyal to you. You should raise his salary." The man stared at her for a long time as if he was hesitating about something.

"Are you going to speak? If there's nothing else, I'm going to the law office. I'm really late." Valeria wanted to pull her hand

back, but the man grabbed it tighter.

Hackett had a complicated look in his eyes. In the end, he decided to speak. "I want to confirm something with you. I hope you can answer truthfully."

This matter might not be that important anymore, but he had always been curious.

Valeria's curiosity was piqued. Her delicate face was filled with confusion. "What is it?"

The man thought about it again. He knew Valeria would be angry if he mentioned this again, but he still wanted to know.

"I want to know, when did we... sleep together four years ago? When exactly did you get pregnant with that child?"

Hackett had always been curious about this. Although the child was gone, he had thought about it many times. But he could not remember when he slept with Valeria four years ago and successfully impregnated her. As expected, Valeria instantly flew into a rage and ruthlessly shook off the man's hand.

"You still don't believe what I said four years ago? Stop asking!"

Valeria turned around and left the ward angrily. She slammed the door heavily, making a loud bang.

Meanwhile, Hackett leaned against the hospital bed and was in a deep thought...

The ward was deathly silent. It was colder than the

morgue.

His memory was pulled back to four years ago. Valeria kept saying that it was on the night of that celebratory feast.

However... the celebratory feast was held in another city, and Valeria did not go with him at all. Most importantly, he was drunk that night. When he woke up the next day, he found Cheryl lying beside him, her clothes disheveled. What shocked him the most was the spot of bloodstain on the snow-white bedsheets...

But Valeria said that she was the one who slept with him that night!

Who should he trust?

Between Cheryl and Valeria, one person must be lying..

If Valeria had really aborted a child, then Cheryl was lying.

But how could she explain what happened that night? He woke up not to see Valeria but to see Cheryl. When he returned to Alcomara the next day, he found that Valeria was already at home.

He wondered what was going on...

Hackett suddenly felt a splitting headache. He held his forehead and roared, "Tyler! Get in here!"

Tyler, who had been waiting outside the ward, immediately pushed open the door and walked in with a serious expression. "Mr. James, what can I do for you?"

"Can the hotel's surveillance cameras still be retrieved from the celebration banquet in Conshire City four years ago?"

Of course, he knew that it would be difficult, but at this moment he urgently wanted to know what had happened that night and if Valeria had appeared.

Tyler was stunned for a moment. "Erm... I'm afraid not. It has been over four years, and the hotel surveillance cameras are usually only kept for one to three months before new surveillance videos overlap them..." "Nonsense! Of course, I know. Forget it... Ignore my question."

The man leaned against the bed and felt the pain in his head striking him. His mind was filled with memories of the night of the celebratory banquet.

He was so drunk that he didn't even know how he got back to the hotel, let alone remember what had happened that night.

Was there a possibility that he had actually slept with Valeria that night? But why was Cheryl lying beside him disheveled when he woke up?

The more he thought about it, the more his head hurt. Coupled with the concussion caused by the car accident, he felt like his brain was about to explod
