Marriage Resumption (Valeria and Hackett)

Chapter 226

"It's not that I don't want to take the medicine. I said that I wanted to wait for you to come before taking the medicine." Alex looked aggrieved as he hugged the man's neck tightly. Hackett felt warm and fuzzy. It turned out that this was how it felt like to be needed by his son. The happiness he felt was indescribable.

"TII feed you the medicine, okay?"

Holding his son, Hackett went to sit on the sofa. He extended his hand to Valeria and gestured for her to bring the medicine

over.

Valeria handed the pills over reluctantly. Ella quickly poured a glass of water and placed it on the table.

Hackett turned into a gentle father at this moment and coaxed Alex, who was in his arms. "Be good and open your mouth to eat the medicine. Otherwise, you won't feel better."

As expected, Alex opened his mouth and ate the medicine. He picked up the cup himself and gulped down a few mouthfuls

of water.

Valeria and Ella were speechless.

Just now, no matter how the two of them coaxed him, it was useless. That was why they forced the medicine down his throat. Now, Alex had obediently taken the medicine after Hackett said just a few words. He was simply mocking her, who was a single mother. "Why did you want to wait for me to come back before taking your medicine?" Hackett asked.

He had never seen Alex being so clingy before. What was wrong with him today? Why was he suddenly so clingy?

Alex pouted aggrievedly and stammered.

"What's wrong? Is there a little secret you can't tell me? Then tell your mommy. How about that?"

Hackett looked at Valeria beside him. He still had to find out what was wrong with his son today. Was he bullied in school again?

Alex leaned close to Hackett's ear and wrapped his arms around Hackett's neck. He whispered, "Because I told Darius that you'll send me to kindergarten tomorrow."

What the child said didn't seem to make sense, but Hackett understood what he meant.

He chuckled and played with his son's hand. "So, you're only willing to take the medicine like a good boy if I send you to kindergarten tomorrow, right?"

"Yes, yes!" Alex looked at him innocently, his cute eyes sparkling

"But you've already taken the medicine." Hackett deliberately teased the little guy in his arms.

Alex looked at Hackett in a daze and said in a childish voice, "I daly ate one just now. There's another one."

Hackett was rendered speechless. This little brat was quite smar

Alright, I promise you. Now take your medicine. I'll send you to kindergarten tomorrow."

"Yay! Alright!" Alex opened his palm where he had hidden the second pill and put it into his mouth. He picked up the cup and took a few sips of water.

Chapter 226

Hackett caressed his son's head. "Why do you

want me to send you to kindergarten?"

"Because Darius' father sends him to kindergarten every day. He even says that his father is more handsome than my father. There's no such thing. My father is the most handsome guy in this world." Alex had a proud expression on his face. He couldn't wait to go to kindergarten tomorrow to show off his father.

Instantly, Hackett felt guilty.

He had been too busy recently, so he did not have much time to accompany his child, let alone send him to kindergarten.

"Be good. From tomorrow onward, Daddy will send you to kindergarten every day, okay?"

Hacken decided that even if he was busy, he would send Alex to school on time every day.

"Really? But Mommy said that you're very busy. Do you really have time? You're not lying to me, are you? Adults can't lie." Alex did not look convinced.

Seeing his son's reaction, the man's heart suddenly ached.

It was obvious that he had been patronized by the adults too many times, so he no longer believed what the adults said.

"I won't lie to you. Be a good boy and go to bed now that you've taken your medicine. When you wake up tomorrow, your fever will subside. Then, I'll send you to kindergarten."

"Alright! You're not allowed to lie to me. Pinky swear!"

Alex stretched out his little finger. Hackett laughed helplessly and did a pinky swear with Alex.

"Okay, go to your room and sleep with Ella. Hackett patted his son's little head.

Ella also tactfully came over and extended her hand to Alex. "Alex, let's go to sleep. If you do, your fever will subside quickly?

Valeria and Hackett would also have some space.

Alex's needs were satisfied, so he obediently followed Ella back to his room to sleep.

Hearing the door close, the living room fell silent again. Only Valeria and Hackett were left. The atmosphere was very stiff.

No one spoke.

Valeria did not even bother to look at Hackett and said coldly, "There's nothing else for you to do. You can leave now. By the way, this house is also yours. I'll move out with the child soon. I won't cause any trouble for your new wife, nor will I let her misunderstand you." Hackett's lips parted slightly, but he hesitated.

Suddenly, his phone vibrated. It was another call from Elsie.

She was probably urging him to look for Kaden as soon as possible.

Without thinking, Hackett hung up the phone. However, in less than a second, his phone vibrated again.

"Just take it. It's not like you haven't taken it before in front of me, Besides, the honeymoon period is always sweet. I understand."

However, when she said this, her heart was actually bleeding.

She couldn't figure out why people were so fickle. Why was it that others could get over a relationship easily, but she couldn't forget it even after four years?

Hackett was about to reject the call, but his hand paused in the air for a moment. Then, he swiped across the screen and picked up the call.

As expected, Elsie started to urge him on the other end of the line. "How is it? Did you find him? Can you hurry up? Kaden is probably terrified right now. He's very timid." Kaden was timid?

Hackett couldn't help but want to laugh. Why was this couple so troublesome?

"If he's so timid, what's the use of having him?"

"I beg you, please help me find Kaden. You promised me! How can you go back on your word?"

Hackett sounded impatient. "I found him. I'll send him over to you later."

"Really? That's great! L

He could not be bothered to listen to Elsie's nonsense anymore and hung up the phone.

"She's a rich girl after all, living like a little princess. Is your attitude appropriate? Can she stand it?"

Valeria could not stand it anymore. She thought that Hackett would be gentler when he found his true love. At the very least, he was gentle with Alex just now.

Hackett said coldly, "Whatever. I still have something on. I'll take my leave first."

With that, the man stood up and prepared to leave.

After taking two steps, he stopped and turned to look at Valeria. Tll give you this house. Take it as compensation for the divorce. You didn't take anything that was given to you back then Now that you have a son, even if you don't want it, my son needs it'

Then, he left without looking back.

Only the sound of the door closing could be heard. Valeria could not help but laugh. She thought it was ridiculous.

This man was still as domineering as ever. He didn't change at all. He always liked to order others around and didn't give them any chance to refuse.
