Marriage Resumption (Valeria and Hackett)

That night, some people slept soundly, while others could not sleep at all such as Naomi.

Naomi paced back and forth in the room, unable to sit still.

Elsie was not the only one who did not want Valeria to return to the Maddox family. Naomi did not want it either.

If Valeria officially returned to the Maddox family and became their daughter, Naomi would never have a chance.

"What should I do... What should I do? What should I do!"

Naomi had been gnawing on her fingernails so hard that they were about to bleed. She was very anxious and did not know what to do.

The key was that Hackett still did not seem to be interested in her. Naomi had made such a huge sacrifice in exchange for Hackett not hating her.

Naomi could not sleep at all, so she went to the manor alone to look for Hackett, although she did not know what to say.

On the way, Naomi bumped into the drunk Hackett who was walking toward her. His eyes were blurry, but he was not too drunk.

"Why didn't you sleep in the middle of the night? Why did you come out?" Hackett stopped in his tracks and looked at the flustered Naomi in front of him as if she had something on her mind.

Seeing Hackett, Naomi was excited and conflicted. She stammered, "I... I can't sleep..."

If it were Valeria, Hackett might have asked why she couldn't sleep, but he didn't care much about Naomi.

The man nodded and simply said, "Oh," and was about to brush past Naomi.

Just as Hackett brushed past Naomi, she grabbed the man's sleeve. "Hackett, wait."

The man frowned slightly and looked down at Naomi's hand that was grabbing his sleeve. Let go."

Naomi immediately let go, revealing her innocent expression again. "I'm sorry..."

"What are you trying to say?" The man looked impatient.

Naomi stammered for a long time. "I heard a piece of gossip. I don't know if it's true. I heard from the servants that Valeria is the daughter of the Maddox family. Is that true?"

The man didn't answer but frowned and stared at Naomi.

Naomi smiled awkwardly and said, "The servants must be spreading rumors. I don't know if I heard wrongly, but I just want to tell you. If it's fake, you will have to control those servants to prevent them from spreading rumors..."

Before Naomi could finish, Hackett said, "It's true. Furthermore, this is not a secret. This matter will be made public soon. In the future, everyone in the world will know that Valeria is the eldest daughter of the Maddox family who has been missing for many years." After hearing Hackett's words in person, Naomi froze on the spot.

When she heard the servants talking about it, Naomi didn't believe it at first. But now that she heard it directly from Hackett, she was completely stunned.

Therefore, Valeria was really the daughter of the Maddox family

"Do you have any other questions?" Hackett asked again.

Naomi pulled back her wandering thoughts and shook her head with a smile. "That's great. If that's the case, no one will say that the two of you aren't compatible when you're with Valeria. There's no need to hide your marriage anymore." These words sounded as awkward as they could be and as hypocritical as they could be.

Hackett remained silent and walked into the manor.

Naomi stood rooted to the ground, watching the man's tall and Handsome back gradually disappear.

This was even harder to deal with.

Valeria had too many trump cards.

Valeria was Hackett's ex-wife, Hackett's son's mother, and the daughter that Clayton had lost for many years.

God was clearly helping that vixen Valeria everywhere. What was the point of Naomi to donate the bone marrow? Was it to make the family of three happy?

The more Naomi thought about it, the angrier she became.

For the past few days, Valeria had been living in the manor. She did not fall out with Naomi anymore. Instead, she was slowly getting used to it.

Alex's body was recovering better and better. Seeing how energetic Alex was, Valeria heaved a sigh of relief.

Then, Valeria returned to her work. As for the banquet at the end of the month, she left it to Clayton to handle it. Valeria was only responsible for making an appearance when the time came. Valeria was looking at the renovation design when Hackett called.

Valeria answered the call with one hand. "What's the matter?"

"For the banquet at the end of the month, I ordered an evening gown for you. Try it when you're free tonight. I sent the address to your phone."

"Okay, got it." Valeria smiled and did not refuse.

The man on the other end of the phone refused to hang up. He seemed to want to say something, but he thought better of it and hung up.

After hanging up, Valeria continued to immerse himself in the design.

At this moment, a man walked in. "Excuse me, are you Valeria Sharp?"

Valeria raised her head and looked over. This man looked so familiar. Where had she seen him before?

"Hello, may I ask who you are?"

"Hello, Ms. Sharp. I'm your sister Elsie's boyfriend, Kaden."

Oh, Valeria remembered. It was the man whom Elsie loved to her core.

Valeria put down the design in her hand, stood up, and walked over. "Why are you looking for me?"

"I want to talk to you. I wonder if you have time now?"

Kaden boldly came here this time because there were only a few days left until the banquet at the end of the month. By the

time they announced the existence of Valeria to the public that night, it would be too late for him to make a move.

Talking to her? About what?

Valeria raised her wrist and looked at the time. It seemed to be lunchtime.

"Then could we have a meal together?"

Kaden nodded with a smile.

Hence, the two of them went to a nearby restaurant and casually ordered a few dishes. After all, their true intention was not

to eat.

Valeria really wanted to know why Kaden was looking for her.

"Mr. Hardin, can you tell me why you're looking for me now? I'm all ears."

Kaden picked up the cup and took a sip. "It hasn't been easy for me and Elsie to be together. Before Mr. Maddox found you, all the Maddox family's attention was focused on Elsie, so no matter what, they didn't agree to us being together. But now, it's different. Ever since you appeared, Mr. Maddox has changed. He has started to support our relationship. I'm very happy about this, but I'm also a little worried that Mr. Maddox seems to have doted on Elsie less. Elsie has been a little unhappy recently." So, Kaden was complaining that Valeria had come back to fight for the Maddox family's favor?

Valeria smiled and did not say anything. She gestured for the man to continue with her gaze.RêAd lat𝙚St chapters at Novel(D)ra/ma.Org Only

"Ms. Sharp, do you understand our relationship? Although our statuses are very incompatible, sparks have flown between us, and we can't help but fall in love..."

Before Kaden could finish his sentence, Valeria played with the cup in her hand. "Why don't I understand? Before I knew that my biological father was Clayton, I was also from a poor family. Do you know how much I suffered in my secret marriage with Hackett? At that time, in everyone's eyes, being together with Hackett made me seem even more mismatched than you and Elsie."

Kaden was rendered speechless.
