SEND GIFT Chapter

277

Valeria had initially been the one most overwhelmed with grief, but now she offered solace to Mrs. Maddox.

She couldn't muster the word "mom" yet, but she could feel the genuine sorrow etched in Mrs. Maddox's heart.

No one had much of an appetite during that dinner. As they were preparing to leave, Clayton and Loretta went upstairs to check on the peacefully sleeping Alex. Their eyes were red, and they refrained from crying, fearing to disturb Alex. Hackett stood by the bed, gazing at his sleeping son. His long fingers gently caressed the soft cheeks of Alex, his lips pressed tightly together, and he closed his eyes, suppressing the pain and torment in his heart.

Downstairs, Hackett arranged for Tyler to come over and drive Clayton and Mrs. Maddox back home.

Hackett and Valeria stood together in the quiet, moonlit night. Their silence speaks volumes about the turmoil in their

hearts.

Eventually, it was Hackett who broke the stillness, saying, Til arrange for another hospital visit tomorrow to get a second opinion. There's a chance it could be a misdiagnosis."

Valeria's smile held a touch of bitterness, "Alex is already displaying symptoms. We can't afford to waste any more time on tests. Please find time to complete the compatibility test as soon as possible. I don't want Alex to endure a long wait" Once again, a profound silence descended upon them.

After a while. Hackett spoke again. "I'll go for the compatibility test tomorrow. Let's keep this from Alex for now,"

I understand. I hadn't planned on telling him, and even if we did, he might not fully grasp the situation."

"TII set aside my current commitments for the time being. Right now, there's nothing more important than being there for Alex. Hackett affirmed.

Valeria appeared momentarily surprised, "Aren't you also concemed about reclaiming your Grandpa's shares? Your matters still require attention; this isn't just about your endeavor but also for Alex."

Hackett fell into contemplative silence.

But now, he had little inclination for work. Thoughts of his son entirely consumed his mind.
