Marriage Resumption (Valeria and Hackett)

Valeria did not say anything else. She just supported the man and walked out of the forest step by step. The pour gradually became a drizzle.

When she finally reached her car, she opened the passenger door and helped Hackett into the car.

She returned to the driver's seat and saw the man beside her struggling to fasten his seatbelt.

Only then did she realize that Hackett's arm seemed to be injured as well. She should have known that since the car had toppled over, he could not only be slightly injured. "I'll help you with it."

Valeria leaned over and helped him buckle his seatbelt. The two of them were so close.

He could even see Valeria's thick and long eyelashes fluttering. His lips curled into a smile as he thought, "Is this the only time I could enjoy Valeria's gentleness?"

At this moment, the raindrops outside the car window began to hit the glass violently again. The crackling sound was a little

scary.

Valeria drove towards the city. Actually, she wanted to speed up. After all, Hackett had a lot of injuries and had been in the rain for so long.

However, the rain seemed to be trapping her and stalling for time, preventing her from accelerating.

Hackett naturally saw through her thoughts and said, "It's okay. Drive carefully and slowly. I can still hold on."

Valeria instantly flared up. She couldn't help but lose her temper. "What do you mean you can hold on? Your car has already flipped over like that. There are so many wounds on your body, and you've been drenched in the rain for so long. Do you know that your wounds will become inflamed if they get infected? Let's see if you can still hold on, then!"

The man had been staring at her side profile. He couldn't help but smile when he saw her chattering.

"Do you care?"

Valeria, who was driving, did not notice the abnormality in the man's eyes. She sounded displeased. "What do you mean by do I care? Even if any passerby sees you, they will save you. This is called humanitarianism! Besides, are you stupid? You didn't call the police or ambulance immediately after you got into a car accident. You were drenched in the rain and even started to think about retribution. Are you out of your mind...?"

Looking at Valeria complaining non-stop, Hackett enjoyed it very much and listened with relish.

This could be considered a form of concern for him.

After talking for a long time without getting a response from the man, Valeria finally glanced at Hackett and realized that he was staring at her in a daze.

Valeria frowned. "Why are you looking at me like that? Do you think I'm nagging? Let me tell you, if I hadn't come here to look for you, you would have been drenched in the rain all night I just saw the weather forecast. The rain might contine until tomorrow morning." "Thank you."

Valeria was at a loss for words.

The car suddenly fell silent. She was not used to it. Hackett did not seem to have recently changed, but something was

different about him. It was-strange.

He actually said things like he was sorry and thank you.

If this were the previous Mr. James, it would definitely be impossible.

Valeria did not say anything else. Instead, she drove quietly, hoping the rain would be lighter. Just a little lighter would do. She wanted to speed up and go to the hospital.

She was terrified that Hackett would faint in the car. When she supported him just now, she felt his body was a little hot. "Why aren't you saying anything?" Hackett's mind drifted away as if he were about to doze off.

Valeria glanced at him. "It's raining so heavily that we have to move while driving. We can't even see the road clearly."

"Just say something. I'm a little sleepy..." The man's eyes were blurry as he leaned against the car seat, feeling dizzy. Sleepy?

Valeria turned around and carefully observed the man's condition. Something seemed off. She could not help but step on the accelerator and speed up. "Hackett, don't sleep. Don't sleep. We're about to enter the city. You can sleep when we get to the hospital. It's very dangerous for you to fall asleep now."

At this moment, Valeria noticed a lot of blood on the car seat beside him. It seemed Hackett had lost a lot of blood.

Her heart skipped a beat. If this continued, Hackett would probably go into shock.From NôvelDrama.Org.

"Yes... I know. Talk to me."

"W-What are you talking about? I don't know what to say..." Valeria was so nervous that she started to speak incoherently. She did not know what to say at all.

Hackett was no longer responding. He leaned against the car seat. His face was pale.

"Hackett! I'm warning you, don't sleep. Don't sleep! By the way, weren't you thinking about retribution in the forest just now? Let me tell you something. You won't believe in retribution after you hear that."

An idea struck her. She decided to whet the man's appetite and stimulate Hackett's brain to keep him awake.

The sleepy Hackett asked weakly, "What are you going to tell me..?"

There was still a trace of consciousness left. That was great!

"I am telling you..."

Valeria was in a dilemma, thinking, "Should I tell Hackett about our kid?" At this point, nothing was more important than his life.

"What is it...?" Hackett's voice became weaker, as if he would pass out at any moment. His face also became paler. Valeria gripped the steering wheel tightly with both hands. A layer of cold sweat drenched her forehead. "It's... Erm..." At this moment, Hackett did not respond. He slowly closed his eyes, and he could see nothing.

"Hackett! Don't sleep! I want to tell you that your child isn't dead so there's no retribution. Don't believe in that, understand?"

Wed, Nov 6

The car was in silence.

The man did not respond and had already fallen asleep. Unfortunately, he did not hear a single word of the most important news.

Valeria slammed on the brakes and patted Hackett's face. "Hacke? Hackett? Wake up, don't sleep!"

Tears were about to roll down her cheeks. She had no choice but to drive towards the city. She was about to reach, but he fell asleep.

It was already very late when they arrived in the city, so no pedestrians or cars were on the road. They arrived at the hospital smoothly. Surrounded by doctors and nurses, she sent Hackett into the operating theater. She felt a little relieved.

All she had to do was wait. She watched the operating room's light lit up anxiously.

She prayed silently in her heart. "Please... Please be alright."

No matter what, Hackett was Alex's biological father. She didn't want anything to happen to Hackett.

Valeria paced outside the operating theater for a long time, but the door still did not open. She did not know what was going on inside.

Suddenly, her phone rang.

It was a call from the manor. The butler had probably come to inquire again.

She picked up the phone and said, "Don't ask anymore. I've found him. Something did happen halfway. I've already sent Hackett to the hospital. Send someone over to look after him as soon as possible." "What? Something really happen? Alright, alright. I'll send someone over now."

At this moment, the signboard light of the operating theater finally went out. The surgeon walked out and took off his mask.
