Marriage Resumption (Valeria and Hackett)

It turned out that Hackett never actually considered marrying her. He was just using her to achieve his own goals.

Thinking about this, Elsie suddenly felt very unhappy.

It was not that she liked Hackett, but she felt her self-esteem had been impacted. Wasn't she talented and live? Why

was Hackett so attached to his humble ex-wife?

She could not figure it out.....

Elsie's gaze drifted to the window. She pretended to be indifferent and said casually, "If Kaden holds on and we successfully cancel the engagement, would you choose to pursue your ex-wife again?"

She looked at Hackett's profile, eagerly awaiting his response.

However, she didn't know exactly what she was expecting. Was she hoping Hackett would say he wouldn't?

Elsie immediately breathed a sigh of relief. Thankfully, he didn't say "yes" Yet, she couldn't help but find herself being a bit ridiculous. What did it matter to her if Hackett wanted to win back his ex-wife? Why was she happy about it?

There were only seven days left until the engagement ceremony at the end of the month. However, Elsie found herself increasingly unable to understand her feelings. It seemed she didn't quite want to hold onto Kaden as much anymore. Instead, she was starting to look forward to seeing Hackett in that suit at the engagement banquet.

Along the way, her thoughts raced.

She had no idea how much time had passed when the car slowly pulled up outside the Maddox's villa.

"We're here. Get out," Hackett said emotionlessly.

Elsie glanced at the familiar front door. She realized they had already arrived home, and she oddly didn't want to go in so quickly.
