"Alright, take a shower and go to bed."

"Yay!"

Then, Valeria closed the door mercilessly and cut off the eye contact between father and son. "Mommy, why are you so cold to Daddy? Mommy!" Alex looked up at her unhappily. Valeria was lost for words.

If the little guy knew what Hackett had said in the garage, would he still like Hackett so much?

She did not want to hurt Alex's feelings and could not tell him about it. She could only hold it in.

"Go to shower and sleep. Why are you talking so much?"

"Mommy, you're so harsh. Can you be more gentle?"

Valeria snorted. "You've pissed me off. How could I be gentle? How about you teach me how to do it?"

She suddenly realized that the little guy had become more like Hackett. Why would that be? Alex had been a lot like her when he was young. Tyler drove Elsie to the suburbs. The surroundings were barren and looked gloomy.

"Why did you bring me here? Is Kaden here?"

"You'll find out later." Tyler did not bother talking too much to her. He was already a little thirsty when praising how good Hackett was previously.

After a while, a car slowly drove toward them. It was Hackett, and it honked twice at Tyler.

Tyler seemed to understand what Hackett meant. He started the car and followed Hackett's.

"Who is that? Is that Hackett?" Elsie asked.

Tyler replied, "Yes, it's Mr. James. Only Mr. James knows where Kaden is being held. I don't know where he is either, so I need Mr. James to lead the way." Elsie twitched her eyebrows. What was that jerk doing? Why was he being so secretive?

Hence, Tyler followed Hackett's car.

After driving for a long time, they arrived at an old factory. The cars finally stopped.

The car door opened, and Hackett got out of the car and walked toward the factory.

Elsie was still wearing high heels and almost fell on the bumpy road. She had to grab Tyler's arm, but Tyler did not seem happy. His expression did not look good.

"What kind of expression is that? You ought to be honored that I grab your arms. Do you know how many men are dying for this? How dared you despise me?" She could not stand someone giving her such an expression. Tyler remained silent.

and grabbed his arm. "Is Kaden here?
