Chapter 392

"Why do you think so?" Hackett inquired as he fixed his gaze on Simon, who appeared far from naive.

"To be able to investigate matters regarding Valeria, was someone intentionally manipulating the situation?" Hackett pondered. Simon smiled, visibly impressed by Hackett's query as he thought, "No wonder he is head over heels in love with Valeria,"

"Hackett, do you think your intelligence has waned due to love, or has Valeria already influenced you? Can't the two DNA tests from Creyque and Emmerick serve as evidence? Why do you still seek my confirmation?" Simon responded with exasperation. He had grown weary of being repeatedly questioned by Valeria and had presented ample evidence.

Now harboring doubts, Hackett had pushed Simon to his limits despite his otherwise good temper.

Hackett stated, "It appears you are unaware of Valeria's past. Let me enlighten you. Five years ago, Valeria and I got married, although it was a discreet ceremony known to very few. Nonetheless, we were indeed wed. After a year of marriage, we divorced, and she was already pregnant by then. She went to Emmerick for four years, where she gave birth to the child before returning with the baby. So, may I inquire, where could she have found time to be with you? I don't doubt something happened to you, and I sympathize with that, but you may have the wrong person."

Hackett clarified that he did not suspect Simon was lying. Indeed, there was a woman who had entered Simon's life, become pregnant, and given birth. However, he staunchly believed that this woman was not Valeria.

"I understand you are seeking to clear Valeria's name. But how do you explain these two paternity tests?" Simon commented.

Simon, who was not a smoker, lit a cigarette solely in light of the present situation's demands.

He had initially anticipated a straightforward trip to Creyque to retrieve the child or bring Valeria along. However, Hackett had suddenly appeared, complicating everything.

"It's all a ruse. I think you might have incurred someone's wrath, or why else would they go to such lengths against you?" Hackett pondered as he exhaled a cloud of smoke. The weight on his shoulders had gradually lightened as he realized that this matter was unrelated to Valeria.

He did not believe that anything had occurred between Valeria and Simon. But after confirming it in person, he could not hide his satisfaction.
