Marriage Resumption (Valeria and Hackett)

Resumption 430

Chapter 430

Night has fallen at the Lawrence Manor.

Finally, it was late at night. Valeria could now carry out her plan. She pressed her ear against the door and listened for a long time but didn't hear any movement outside.

Then she went to the window and saw that most of the lights in the entire manor had been extinguished. They should be asleep.

Therefore, Valeria returned to her bed and swiftly removed the bedsheets and blanket. She skillfully twisted them together to form a makeshift rope and hurled it out the window. She looked down, and the length was just enough for her to reach the ground.

Although it shouldn't be too dangerous, she was still quite nervous. After all, this was her first time doing such a thing.

Valeria sat on the windowsill and looked down at the lawn below. Thankfully, it wasn't too high. She should be able to reach the ground quickly.

Breathing deeply, she clung to the improvised sheet rope and carefully maneuvered herself away from the edge.

Valeria took nearly half an hour to land safely. She was sweating profusely, and her heart was racing.

She was so tired that she collapsed on the lawn and panted heavily.

Thinking about it was one thing, but doing it was another. The tension and fear were overwhelming, each second feeling like an agonizing eternity. Thankfully, she landed safely on the ground, the relief washing over her. Valeria rested for a while, then quickly got up, left the place, and walked into the dark.

She quietly arrived at S5 Bay and sneaked into the living room. It was pitch-black. Everyone should be asleep.

She didn't dare to take the elevator, so she opted for the slow climb up the stairs. Finally reaching the second floor, she pushed open the door and found Alex curled up on the bed, seemingly fast asleep.

The moment she saw the baby, tears flowed down her face.

She went into the room and closed the door. She came to the bed and looked at the sleeping baby.

"Alex."

Valeria called out softly, not expecting much, but to her surprise, Alex immediately opened his eyes. "Mommy."

Alex rubbed his eyes. When he realized it was his mommy, he threw himself into her arms, hugging her neck tightly.
