Marriage Resumption (Valeria and Hackett)

"Can't you learn it? Is it difficult to learn how to cook for the woman you love? Or is this all the sincerity you have in wooing a woman!

Valeria was deliberately making things difficult for Hackett to let him have a taste of this

Hacken remained silent. He knew that Valeria was filled with resentment.

Valeria stood up and left, and so did he. "I'll drive you home, said Hackett.

"That won't be necessary. I want to take a taxi back. You said you wanted to change your temper."

In fact, she was afraid that if Hackett sent her home and ran into that brat Alex, what should she do?

Hackett remained silent once again. Indeed, he promised to change his bad temper.

He suppressed his displeasure and followed Valeria all the way out of the Mantia Building. He watched helplessly as she hailed a taxi and left. Hackett pulled his car out of the garage and tailed the taxi. He just wanted to escort her home safely.

Actually, he could understand why Valeria was treating him like this.

It was because he had made too many mistakes previously. This was what he deserved.

After following Valeria to Starry Bay, Hackett stopped his car in the dark for a long time...

He recalled the various mistakes he had made to Valeria four years ago. It seemed that he had gone too far in every wrong thing. Suddenly, his phone vibrated.

Frowning, he glanced at it. He didn't want to answer the phone, but he quickly picked it up when he saw it was from the sanatorium. "What happened?" asked Hackett.

The attending doctor's voice came from the other end of the phone. "Mr. James, your mother doesn't seem to be in a good state. She keeps asking to see you. Do you have time to come over now?" Hackett's expression changed. "What happened to her?" asked he

His parents had been a mystery and had disappeared for many years. No one in their circle knew where his parents had gone. It was as if they had vanished into thin air.

Barron announced that his son and daughter-in-law were living abroad, but it was not the case,

"I can't say for sure. In a word, your mother hasn't been doing well, time."

"I'm coming over right now," said Hackett.

After hanging up the phone, Hackett immediately drove his car around and toward the sanatorium.

He calculated the time, and it seemed he had not visited his mother for half year.

mental state worse.

At the Southhill Sanatorium.

Hackett finally arrived at the sanatorium after nearly an hour of driving.

Perhaps it was because it was late at night, or this place was alreally quiet, so everything was dead and lifeless here.

After parking the car, Hackett went to the high-class ward where his mother lived.

When he walked into the ward, he saw his mother sitting on the rocking chair in her hospital gown. She kept muttering, "Elon James, this is retribution. This is retribution... Why don't you believe in retribution..." Elon James was Hackett's father's name..

Hackett walked up to his mother and looked at her haggard appearance. He slowly squatted down.

"Hackett, is that you? My son... is that you? Am I dreaming?" Mandy looked at the handsome man before her and didn't dare to recognize him because she had not seen her son for a long time.

"Mom, it's me." Hackett's deep voice slowly sounded.

""Hackett, you're finally here! Mom was so scared!"

After saying that, Mandy hugged him, tears flowing down her face. She indeed looked scared.

Hackett gently patted his mother's back. "What are you afraid of? Are you unhappy here? Or I'll change you to another sanatorium."

Mandy shook her head frantically and left her son's arms. "No. I'm afraid that retribution will befall you again. I'm so scared." "Mom, don't let your imagination run wild!" Hackett's face darkened when he heard the word retribution. He hated hearing the word. However, Mandy grabbed his arm tightly and said, "Have you forgotten how your father died? It's retribution. How could he do such a cruel thing? How could he let someone else's son suffer such torture in place of his son to death? Then he was squashed in a car accident. Isn't that retribution? Tell me what this is!"

Many years ago, a series of strange things had happened in the James family since Abbot's tragic death.

Elon had been in a car accident one after another. In the end, he died in a car accident. Moreover, his death was even more tragic. From then on, Mandy went crazy and could only be sent to this sanatorium.

Moreover, the most unacceptable thing was that Elon died on Hackett's birthday.

Hackett never celebrated his birthday again from then on.

Valeria took it upon herself to celebrate Hackett's birthday four years ago. That time, Hackett threw a tantrum. Valeria was so frightened that her face turned pale. "Stop talking!"

Hackett roared angrily. Mandy was totally stunned as she stared at her son before her in a daze.

Hackett stood up impatiently. "I thought you wanted to see me. If that's all you want to tell me, I'm leaving. Have a goodRêAd lat𝙚St chapters at Novel(D)ra/ma.Org Only

rest."

He was sick of his mother's retribution theory whenever he came to see her. It gave him a splitting headache. Chapter 80

Mandy grabbed his arrand said, "Son, even if it's for the sake of the child you'll have in the future, you must be careful. Aren't you afraid that your child will suffer retribution?" A child...

Hackett's tall body froze on the spot, a hint of shock appearing in his dark eyes.

Could it be that his child was not saved because of retribution?

Seeing that he was silent, Mandy added, "Hurry up and marry Cheryl. If you marry Cheryl, Abbot will let us go. The only thing he was worried about was his sister. As long as you marry his sister, everything will be fine!" Hackett's brows were filled with frustration. He couldn't listen to a word his mother said. However, he did not want to agitate his mother's mental state.

He could only say perfunctorily, "I'll think about it." Then he pulled his arm back and turned to leave the ward.

After the door closed, the bathroom door slowly opened, and Cheryl walked out.

Mandy looked at Cheryl. "I hope he will listen to me," she whimpered. "Cheryl, you must not leave Hackett. You really can't. Nothing must happen to Hackett. He is the James family's only heir." Cheryl pretended to be obedient and knelt in front of Mandy. "Don't worry, Mrs. James. I definitely won't leave Hackett. I don't want to leave him. It's just that he doesn't want me..." "Cheryl, good girl. I believe that Hackett will come around. He just said that he would consider it, so he definitely would. In any case, I only acknowledge you as my daughter-in-law." Mandy patted Cheryl's head. She thought that Cheryl was the source of breaking all the retribution.

"Thank you, Mrs. James. I will be Hackett's good wife in the future." Cheryl nodded with a smile. She lay on Mandy's lap, but the smile on the corner of her mouth became unusually malicious. Mandy was her last trump card.

Even if no one could convince Hackett, Hackett would definitely listen to Mandy.
