Chapter 82

Valeria scrolled through the contact list for Hackett's number and dialed it, but he did not answer.

She called several times, but that man did not pick up. The rain poured outside.

"What is Hackett doing? Why is he out of contact?" thought Valera.

Valeria's worries surged through her. Although Hackett was a grown man and would not go missing for no reason, it was... certain.

"Mommy, I'm so hungry. Is dinner ready? I'm hungry!"

Alex couldn't take it anymore and ran to the kitchen to urge his mommy.

Only then did Valeria snap out of her thought. "Oh, alright. Why don't you and the bodyguard have dinner at home? Mommy has something to do and will be back soon."

As she brought the dishes to the table, she placed two plates on the dining table. Then, she headed out as she instructed the bodyguard, "Please have dinner with Alex. I have something to deal with outside." The bodyguard did not have any objections. He only said, "It's raining outside. Please be back early."

"Thank you. Please look after my baby for me. Don't let him out of your sight for a second," instructed Valeria again.

The bodyguard nodded. "Don't worry."

"Mommy, where are you going? I want to go too! Don't even think about leaving me at home. I want to go too!" Alex hugged her slender legs like a cute koala.

Valeria squatted helplessly and explained patiently to him, "Mommy has something urgent to do. I'll accompany you when I come back, okay? I'm not going out to have fun."

"Hmph... Alright. I'm starving now and don't have time to go out with you."

Alex snorted and obediently climbed onto the chair by the dining table, preparing to have his meal.

Valeria glanced at the bodyguards in the dining area and was relieved.

Hence, she returned to the bedroom upstairs to change her clothes and left the house with an umbrella. After driving out of Starry Bay, she looked confused. She had no idea where to find Hackett.
