Marriage Resumption (Valeria and Hackett)

Chapter 378

"You have a sharp tongue. Very good. I admire someone like you" Simon grabbed her chin and forced her to look him in the

eye.

At this moment, Valeria was indeed a little flustered. She could only make use of Hackett to save herself.

"You better not touch me, or you'll regret it!"

"Oh? Tell me why." Simon seemed unimpressed. He didn't think this woman could do anything to him either.

However, Valeria said, "No matter how much presence you have in your country, you're just a stranger in this foreign land. No matter how powerful you are, you can't do anything here."

"Is that so? It seems you come from a rather influential background. Tell me about it." Simon still had that nonchalant attitude that could provoke a confrontation.

Valeria didn't want to show off like this, but staying alive was more important at this crucial moment.

She stared into the man's eyes. "My father is the chairman of Maddox Group, Clayton Maddox. My husband is the head of James Group, Hackett James! If you dare to touch me, they won't let you leave in peace."

However, this man appeared to possess a formidable background. She wondered if the mention of Clayton and Hackett was enough to intimidate him.

After all, when she was overseas, she had heard a little about how influential the Lawrence family's business was. It was a grand family with a hundred years of prestige.

After Simon heard this, he smiled. "Your background is rather powerful, but what did you say just now? Is Hackett your husband? Are you sure you're not joking with me?"

A glimmer of hope appeared in Valeria's eyes. It turned out that he knew Hackett. It seemed like there was a chance!

"Yes, he's my husband!"

"How long have you been married?"

Valeria fell into deep thought. If she told him she had divorced him, he would not take her seriously and continue to imprison her.
