Chapter 236
Ella wanted to go forward and persuade Valeria not to be angry, but he did not know what to say. She could only return to the kitchen to wash the dishes.
Not long after, the doorbell rang again.
Valeria frowned slightly, wondering if it was Alex and if he forgot to take something.
This little guy was always forgetful.All content is property © NôvelDrama.Org.
She walked to the door and saw a woman dressed strangely through the video doorbell.
The woman outside the door had wrapped herself up tightly. She was wearing a pair of black sunglasses that covered most of her face. She had wrapped her head in a veil as if she feared someone would recognize her. Who could it be?
Valeria opened the door curiously. soon as she opened the door, she was scolded by the woman outside.
expectedly, a
"Valeria, why are you so useless? You've even given birth to a child but still can't capture his heart. You're incompetent, you know? Tell me, what's your
a good-for-nothing!" use? You
Valeria was confused and enraged.
"Who do you think you are? What right do you have to criticize me here? You're nuts!"
Valeria was about to close the door when the woman forced it open and barged into the house.
She looked at the strange woman, thinking which mental hospital she had escaped from. Valeria had the urge to call the police.
Then, the woman removed her veil and sunglasses, revealing her face.
This time, Valeria could tell. She could not help but chuckle. "It's you, Cheryl."
The hideous scar on Cheryl's cheek constantly reminded her of how stupid she was to hurt herself. Furthermore, she had yet to win Hackett's heart. Now, Hackett's heart was getting further and further away from her. Cheryl knew he did not care about her at all.
"So what if it's me? I'm here to scold a good-for-nothing like you!"
Valeria finally understood what Cheryl meant when Cheryl said those words. It turned out that Cheryl hated her for pushing Hackett to Elsie's side. After all, Elsie was much harder to deal with than Valeria.
Valeria laughed from the bottom of her heart. "If you're so angry, go and deal with the daughter of the Maddox family. She's the one Hackett is getting married to, not me. What's the use of you looking for me? I'm no longer Hackett's target, nor am I a threat to you." "That's why I want to curse you. Why are you so useless? You even gave birth to his child, but you still can't keep his heart!" Cheryl looked disappointed because it was too difficult for her to deal with Elsie. They were not on the same level.
Valeria knew what Cheryl was thinking. She only smiled and said. "Why? Do you think that I am easier to bully than Elsie? Is that why you are more willing to deal with me? You're afraid of Elsie, right?"
"Who said I'm afraid of Elsie? Do you think everyone is as cowardly as you?"
"Then hurry up and find a way to keep your Hackett. They're geing engaged at the end of the month. Why are you wasting your time on me?"
Valeria turned around and sat on the sofa. She crossed her legs elegantly and looked like she wanted Cheryl to leave immediately.
"You're hopeless. You're not worthy to be with Hackett. I'm right You're just too cowardly!"
With that, Cheryl left angrily and slammed the door.
Valeria's smile instantly disappeared without a trace.
Cowardly?
Was she a coward? Why would she have to fight to the death with Elsie for Hackett?
She did not care about him.
He was just a man. Why would they fight against each other for him?
Ella walked out and asked gossipily, "Valeria, who was that woman just now? Why did she scold you? It's ridiculous."
Valeria replied sourly, "Who else could it be? My Mr. Ex-husband, Hackett's pursuer. Moreover, she's a crazy one. Why do you think she scolded me?"
"I don't understand. She's your ex-husband's crazy pursuer. Why did she scold you? Isn't your ex-husband getting engaged to someone else now? Why didn't she scold that woman?" Valeria smiled. "That's rights Maybe I'm easier to bully."
Ella complained softly, "There must be something wrong with her brain. No wonder Mr. James doesn't like her. If it were me, I wouldn't like her either."
Hackett and Alex arrived at James Group.
It was Alex's first time in Hackett's company. He widened his eyes and looked around. He sighed. "Wow, Daddy, this place is
work?" so big. Is this where you
"Yeah."
Hackett held Alex's little hand, and the two figures looked harmonious.
"Can you let Mommy work here? I want Mommy to come here too." Alex looked up in expectancy.
Hackett beamed, praising in his heart for Alex to love his mother so deeply.
"Your Mommy works here, but she rarely comes." Valeria was still a legal consultant at James Group, so she could be considered an employee there.
At that moment, the secretary walked out. "Mr. James, the meeting at ten o'clock is about to begin. Do you want to postpone -it?"
"No need. Go and be prepared."
""Will do."
With a ding, the elevator door slowly opened.

Hackett held his son's hand and prepared to go to his office to get something before heading straight to the meeting room. "Daddy, is this your office?"
"Correct."
"Do you sleep in your office every day?"
"I do."
Children always had so many questions. Alex asked non-stop, and Hackett had the rare patience to answer him.
Hackett pushed open the office door and instantly furrowed his brows. He even wanted to turn around and leave with his
son.
It was because Elsie was sitting on the sofa in the reception area. She looked bored and seemed to have been waiting for him.
"Dad, it's that nasty woman again!" Alex shouted as he pointed at Elsie.
Nasty woman?
Elsie frowned as well. How could this little guy call her a nasty woman? Why would he
Hackett did not stop Alex, nor did he blame Alex. Instead, he led Alex into the office.
Alex. There are snacks over there. Go get some."
"Okay, Daddy, but don't talk to that woman," Alex said to Hackett seriously.
Hackett smiled and patted Alex's head.
say
SO?
After Alex left, Hackett sat on the sofa and looked at Elsie opposite him. "What are you doing here?"
He had no sense of joy at the impending engagement. It was as if he was talking to a stranger.
"You think I want to come here? My dad asked me to meet you here for lunch and try on the dress for the engagement this afternoon. My dad has already asked the designer to work overtime to make the dress," Elsie said. Hackett scowled unhappily. "Another day. I'm not free today."
"Are you going to accompany your son today? Right. We need to talk about your son. How did you teach your son? Why did he call me a nasty woman? What kind of address is that?"
Elsie was furious at the thought of what Alex said about her.
