Marriage Resumption (Valeria and Hackett)

Chapter 334

At that, Valeria smiled and did not say anything.

However, at that moment, someone entered the lounge, and it was Kaden.

To be honest, Valeria didn't have a favorable opinion of this man and didn't even want to look at him.

However, Kaden paid no attention to her attitude and approached with a smile, saying, "Ms. Sharp, you should come out now. Mr. Maddox and the others are waiting for you."

Valeria let out a sarcastic laugh and turned to Kaden. "It's so funny. Didn't you want me to stay away from the Maddox family? Why are you so kind as to call me out?"

Valeria was intentionally taunting Kaden, unaware that he had ulterior motives.

At that, Kaden continued to smile, ignored her provocations, and looked at Ella, who was standing nearby. "Ms. Patel, could you step out for a moment? I have something to discuss privately with Ms. Sharp." Hearing it, Ella gave Kaden a once-over and asked, "Is there something you can't say in front of me, or do you intend to harm Valeria?"

At that, Kaden replied calmly, "What nonsense is that? You must be joking. I'm her sister's boyfriend and soon-to-be brother-in-law. How could I harm her?" Ella's speculative comments didn't seem to affect Kaden.

Ella narrowed her eyes at him and retorted, "Then why do you want me to leave? Say what you have to say in front of me."

At the same time, Valeria didn't intervene to ask Ella to leave, making it clear that she wanted Kaden to speak his mind.

"Very well, Ms. Sharp, I'd like to explain myself to you. That day, I acted impulsively. I apologize. Please forgive my audacity It's just that I care deeply for Elsie and only want to make her happy. So, I apologize for my foolish behavior, and I won't do something like that again."

Kaden offered a sincere apology, one that might sway anyone, but not Valeria.

However, Valeria, uninterested, responded, "That's unnecessary, Mr. Hardin. I only hope you won't meddle in our family affairs any longer."

"Thank you for your forgiveness. By the way, Mr. Maddox wants you to come out quickly. Take the left elevator. It seems he has a surprise prepared for you. I don't know the details, but you'll find out once you're there." From the beginning to the end, Kaden continued to wear a friendly smile.

Since her father asked her over there, Valeria adjusted her hair and glanced at Ella, saying, "Okay. I'm ready. Let's go."
