Although Alex was fearless during the day, he was still a kid who needed his mother to put him to sleep at night. After all, he was only three years old.

Barron waved his hand and said, "Every kid cries, alright? It's normal...

Valeria didn't even finish listening before she turned around and left, wanting to go to the garden to look for her son.

It seemed like Barron would not let her take Alex back home so easily, so it would be a waste of breath to say anything more.

After Valeria left, Hackett sat on the sofa and looked at his grandfather, who was as calm as a tranquil lake. "Alex is not in the garden at all, right?" he asked in a low voice. Barron didn't say anything but picked up the coffee cup and took a sip.

This response could be considered an answer.

Hackett sneered and slapped the coffee table angrily, making a violent sound. 'Grandpal Is there any point in doing this? Do you think you can hide him forever? Alex needs his mother. Don't you know that? Besides, it's not like Valeria doesn't want you to see Alex now. Why do you need to do this?"

He had started to be irritated with his grandfather's behavior. He had long known that his grandfather would be like this, but he did not expect him to be even more ruthless than he had imagined. Barron completely did not want Alex to stay with Valeria, and he planned to take Alex for himself.

"What you said makes sense, but Valeria won't remarry you. She won't return to the James family. Do you know what this means? She can run away with Alex at any time. I had waited for this great-grandson for a long time. I can't let her disappear with her child for another four years. How many years do I have left? I can't

With age, people tend to become more stubborn, and Barron, at this point, could not manage to think straight. He believed that as long as he kept Alex by his side and hid him from Valeria the situation would be normal after a long time.

Hackett said, "Grandpa, give Alex to us. This way, Valeria will still have a chance to return to my side. If you insist on doing this, then Alex and Valeria might really be further and further away from us."
