Marriage Resumption (Valeria and Hackett)

Chapter 245

"Ms. Sharp, I did not expect you to be this young. I thought you were a middle-aged career woman. It really defies my expectations." Someone said, and Valeria responded with a smile. Actually, I'm not that young anymore. I'm a mother, after all."

"What? Do you have a child? Are you married? You certainly don't look like you have had a child. The person exclaimed, looking Valeria up and down in surprise.

Valeria did not mind sharing the fact that she had a child to prevent unwanted advances. "Yes, I'm married, and I have a child. But I'm divorced now, and my child is three years old."

"Wow, I couldn't tell at all. Ms. Sharp, you have quite an interesting personal history."

Valeria smiled and took a sip of her red wine, wondering if she would encounter anyone she knew tonight, like Hackett

No, Hackett was seriously injured and should be in the hospital, so he wouldn't be here.

With that thought. Valeria boldly scanned the room, but she was wrong. Hackett wouldn't be here, but his future father-in-law and fiancée would be. She already saw Elsie coming to the party, holding her father's arm. What a coincidence. Encountering the father and daughter duo, Elsie and Clayton, once again.

Valeria immediately put down her wine glass, ready to make a discreet exit. She didn't want to be subjected to Elsie's harassment again. Trying to slip away discreetly into a corner, Valeria was nonetheless spotted by Elsie, "Dad. I see someone I know. I'll go say hello, Elsie said, leaving her father behind and walking toward Valeria.

Clayton acknowledged and followed Elsie's direction. Wasn't that Hackett's ex-wife? Had Elsie already found out about the ex-wife's existence!

Clayton intended to see how his daughter would deal with her.

"Ms. Sharp, you're leaving so soon?" Elsie blocked Valeria's path.

and which are not. Suddenly, Valeria felt that Clayton was playing dumb while knowing full well that she was Hackett's ex-wife. Having her draft this prenuptial agreement was clearly meant to embarrass her. Since that was the case, she saw no reason to pretend friendly any longer. Valeria smiled and looked at Clayton and Elsie, saying, "Mr. Maddox, the two of you are quite interesting. You asked me to draft a prenuptial agreement, but do you know what your
