Marriage Resumption (Valeria and Hackett)

Chapter 196

Hence, the policewoman took out her phone and opened a social media app. She pressed the camera button and took a video of Alex. Then, she created a missing person notice and posted it online. The kid looked at the phone in the policewoman's hand and said "Can I call Keith?"

He still remembered Keith's cell phone number. It took him a long time to memorize that number. In the past, he would always secretly call Keith behind Valeria's back.

Keith?

The policewoman and the elder policeman looked at each other, and their eyes lit up.

The elder policeman squatted down and looked at Alex. "If you remember your father's phone number, why didn't you tell us earlier? You made us spend a whole night searching for your mom.

Alex waved his little hand, looking incredibly adorable. Whoever saw it wouldn't be able to help but want to give him a kiss.

"I can't just call Keith randomly. Mommy will be angry. She never let me call Keith. She said it would disturb him."

The two policemen had no idea what this meant. Could it be that Alex had a single mother?

The elder policeman patiently said to the baby, "Can we call Keith first and ask him to pick you up? Your mother must be very anxious that she couldn't find you all night. We are in a special situation right now. You can call your father. Hence, he took out his phone to pull out the dial page and put it in Alex's tiny hand.

Alex took the phone and dialed Keith's number as if he had done it many times.

At this moment, Keith was also looking for the child everywhere He was so busy that he did not have time to answer the phone. The phone rang for a long time before it was picked up.

Keith's anxious and impatient voice came from the phone. "Who is this? If there's nothing urgent, don't call me today. Please contact my secretary instead...."

Before the man could finish speaking, Alex shouted on his phone. "Keith, this is Alex."

"Alex? Where are you? Your mommy has been looking for you everywhere. Why didn't you contact your mommy? Tell me where you are first."

Before Alex could say anything, the elder policeman took the phone away. He felt that it was better for him to communicate with Alex's father.

"Hello, this is the River Police Station. Are you the father of Alex? He got lost last night and came to the police station to ask for help, but he couldn't remember his mother's phone number or the home address for the entire night-He has told us your phone number just now. Are you free now? You can come to the police station to pick up the child."

"Okay, I'll be right there," Keith responded.

With that, he hung up the phone. The elder policeman heaved a sigh of relief and looked at the little guy in front of him.

"Little troublemaker, you can finally go home. Your father will come and pick you up later. I'm so tired. I spent the entire night messing around with you."

Alex said very seriously, "That's not my father. He's Mommy's colleague."

What?

Chapter 190

The elder policeman and the policewoman looked at each other again with their eyes filled with confusion.

After washing up, Valeria changed her clothes. She finished her breakfast expressionlessly and went out.

"Valeria, where are you going? You don't look too good, Ella could not help but ask

She said lightly, "I am going to check on the law office."

Then, she walked out of the house. However, she seemed to be in a bad state, as if she had been suppressing her emotions for a long time and could explode at any moment.

Valeria did not go to the law office. Instead, she drove straight to the old mansion, planning to talk to Barron James.

If he kept taking the child with him randomly, she would really have a mental breakdown and think that Alex was kidnapped.

After reaching the old mansion, Alfred told her. "Mr. Barron went to the manor. He didn't say why. Ms. Sharp, you can look for him there."

Barron went to the manor...

Valeria did not say anything. Instead, she turned around and left. No matter what, she had to talk to Barron today.

At the James Manor.

Barron couldn't just wait for updates in the manor. He started calling to ask people around to find the whereabouts of the child.

ry with He also wanted to go out and look for Alex, but his body really could not allow him to. Recently, he had been so angry Hackett that he often felt dizzy and short of breath. He could not walk anywhere with just himself. "Hurry up and go look for the child. Being at his young age, he must be having a rough time out there."

"Don't worry, Mr. Barron. We're working on it. I believe we'll find him soon."

After saying that, he hung up the phone. Barron sighed and muttered to himself, "All of you are disobedient to me and unwilling to leave the child by my side. It would be very safe for him to be with me. How can he even get lost? I am truly worried... Barron paced back and forth in the hallway, Just as he was about to go downstairs, he realized that Hackett's bedroom door was ajar.

"Why is the door open when this guy isn't at home?" Barron thought to himself.

Barron pushed open the door and walked in, but he did not see anyone.

"Could it be that the maid forgot to close the door when she was cleaning the room?" thought he

Just as Barron was about to turn around and leave, a figure walked out of the bathroom.

The two of them were shocked to see each other.

Barron finally saw who the person in front of him was after being shocked.

"Cheryl Yeats? What are you doing in my grandson's room? Why were you in his bathroom?" Barron could not figure out what this girl was trying to do by sneaking into Hackett's bedroom.

At this moment, Cheryl was still holding an empty bottle in her hand. She was so frightened that she stood rooted to the ground. She really did not expect to see Barroll

Chapter 198

She had been observing for many days. It was impossible for anyone to appear in Hackett's room at this time during the day. That was why she chose to come at this time. Who knew that Barron would be in this room..... "L... L. Cheryl stammered.

Barron noticed the empty bottle in her hand. "What's that in your hand?"

He walked over and snatched the bottle from Cheryl's hand. There was a bunch of English words written on it. Because the words were very small, it took him a long time to be able to read them.

Barron was furious when he read it. "You really didn't give up. You want to drug my grandson! How can you be so shameless? Do you think you're still worthy of my grandson in your current situation?"

"Grandpa, do you really have to say that? Isn't it because of your good grandson that I became like this?!"

Cheryl's heart was hurt and her self-esteem was shattered.

"Don't you think you are being ridiculous? What do you mean by my good grandson harming you? Didn't you disfigure your own face? Don't push all the responsibility on Hackett. All these years, didn't you rely on your brother's death as a moral leverage and make Hackett take responsibility for you? Otherwise, how could my good grandson like a girl like you?"

Barron did not think highly of Cheryl at all. He felt that she was petty and full of schemes.

He would be extremely dissatisfied if such a woman were his granddaughter-in-law.

"Grandpa, you can't say that. Did my brother die for nothing? Wasn't it because your family was afraid of the curse that they treated me well? I really can't care less about talking to you since you are such an old man."

Cheryl hated Barron the most. If not for this damn old man, she would have become Mrs. James a long time ago.

With that, she walked over and snatched the empty bottle from Barron's hand. Then she wanted to take the opportunity to get out of this situation.
