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."

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

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