At the James family's villa.

"Hackett, when are you coming back? I have something to tell you." Valeria Sharp's face lit up with a sweet smile as she looked down at the pregnancy test stick in her hand. On the other end of the phone, a man's voice replied in a deep tone, "I'm already back. I'm in the living room."

"Really? Then I'm coming down," she said and hung up the phone, rushing out of the bedroom with the pregnancy test stick, eager to share the good news with the man.

Valeria hurriedly ran down the stairs but suddenly remembered that she was pregnant, which caused her to slow down her pace. She tightly held the pregnancy test stick in her hand, wondering Hackett James's expression when he found out. Valeria was halfway up the stairs when she saw two figures standing in the living room downstairs. It was Hackett with a voluptuous woman.

Valeria slowly stopped in her tracks, gripping the staircase railing with her right hand, her heart sinking.

Hackett and that woman acted very intimately, like a couple in love.

Valeria's smile froze instantly, her mind in chaos, and her feet felt as heavy as stones as she descended the steps.

"Hackett..."

Valeria reached the living room with great difficulty, but the man coldly interrupted her before she could say anything. "She's pregnant. Let's get a divorce." "What?"

This was so straightforward, so impatient, just like how Valeria was impatient to share the news of her pregnancy.

The woman affectionately held Hackett's arm and smiled, saying softly, "Mrs. James, sorry about that, but I guess you need to step aside now."

Valeria stared fixedly at the woman's hand, her gaze dimmed, her eyes filled with mist, her heart being torn apart bit by bit.

Valeria clenched the pregnancy test stick and handed it to him. Then, she asked, "What about our child? Why are you so heartless?"

Hackett glanced coldly at the two lines on the pregnancy test stick and sneered. "That's impossible. I've never even touched you. Don't try to deceive me with that."

If it weren't for Barron James being critically ill at the time and threatening Hackett to marry Valeria, Hackett would never have married her.
