Marriage Resumption (Valeria and Hackett)

Chapter 275

Upon hearing this, Hackett furrowed his brows even deeper. "Nosebleed? Didn't you take him to the hospital? Nosebleeds can be a serious matter."

"We did go to the hospital, but we're still waiting for the test results. We have to wait until this afternoon."

"Well, in that case, we'll be on our way. Take care of yourself, and get plenty of rest, Hackett said as he effortlessly lifted Alex.

Meanwhile, Clayton and Mrs. Maddox, observing Valeria's condition, grew concerned.

"Would you like me to arrange for someone to drive you to the hospital for a check-up? Your complexion doesn't look good," Clayton suggested.

Mrs. Maddox chimed in, "Yes, your health matters too. Why not go to the hospital for an examination

"I am excellent. I just had a restless night and caught a bit of a chill. I'll have a cup of ginger coffee later. If I don't improve, I'll go to the hospital. Don't worry. I'm all grown up and can take care of myself, she offered a strained smile, hoping to put their minds at ease.

After seeing them off, Valeria sat alone on the couch, sighing and keeping her phone close at hand.

Ella approached with concern. "Valeria, would you like something to eat?"

"No, I'm not hungry, but Ella, have you noticed that Alex doesn't seem lively today... I wonder if it's related to the nosebleed."

"It's okay. Kids can be like that sometimes. Maybe he's just tired from waking up early," Ella comforted her.

While Ella had also observed that Alex was a bit subdued today, he wasn't his usual vibrant self.

At that moment, Valeria's phone rang.

She instinctively picked it up and glanced at the caller ID. It was a call from Keith.

Without a second thought, she answered the call. "Hello? Keith, how's it going at the hospital? What are the test results?"

Her rapid-fire questions left Keith momentarily silent on the other end, intensifying Valeria's nervousness and involuntarily causing her fingertips to quiver.

"Could you please say something? What's happening?" Valeria was on the brink of panic,
