Marriage Resumption (Valeria and Hackett)

Chapter 14

Before the teacher could explain, Valeria picked Alex up. She said angrily, "If the teachers at your school have the same. attitude as yours, then I'll have to consider finding another kindergarten. I didn't pay for my son to be scolded and mistreated." With that, she carried her son away.

Valeria carried Alex outside the school gate. Then she placed him on a bench by the roadside and gently patted his little head.

"Alex, it's not right for them to call you a bastard, but it's also not right for you to use violence. Do you understand?"

Alex sat on the bench, swinging his little legs. He looked absolutely adorable.

He pouted and didn't say anything. Then he snorted and turned his head away.

Valeria chuckled in resignation. She said, "Alright. I know you've been wronged. Are you hungry? I will take you to eat something delicious." "Mommy, I don't want to go back to that kindergarten."

"Okay. I will find you a new kindergarten tomorrow, alright?"

With a smile. Alex nodded happily and then hopped off the bench. He shouted, "I want to eat steak!"

Valeria watched her son's small figure and couldn't help but feels pang of heartache.

She thought inwardly, "When Alex was called a bastard by others he must have been hurt as well.

"Should I consider finding a father figure for Alex?

Then the night came.

After returning home, Valeria bathed her son, dressed him in pajamas, and then carried him to bed.

"Sweetie, look at your picture book for a little while. I'm going to take a shower," Valeria said.

"Okay."

Alex obediently took out a picture book to read by himself. However, as soon as Valeria entered the bathroom, he sneakily picked up the phone and dialed Keith's number. The call was quickly answered.

Keith, who was on the other end, asked in a warm and charming voice, "Valeria, why are you still up so late?"

"Keith, it's me."
