shameless one!"

"I didn't say anything, and I have no idea why he turned out like his. Who do you think you are to hit me? When Hackett needed someone to take care of him in the hospital after the accent, where were you? He's awake now, and you come running back. You're the Yumi stared at Valeria and shouted angrily at her.

With a snap, Valeria's hand landed another slap on Yumi's face,

"You know nothing! What are you blabbering about here? Let me tell you, if anything happens to Hackett, I won't spare you!" Valeria's tone was fierce as she glared at Yumi.

"Valeria, that's enough! If you lay a hand on her again, I won't be polite!" Harry pulled Valeria away. He watched his sister take two slaps, but he couldn't bring himself to harm a woman.

Valeria shot him an angry glare, shrugged off Harry's hand, and walked toward the direction of the ward without looking back, wanting to see what had happened to Hackett.

However, Yumi stood where she was, looking bewildered and watching Valeria storm off in anger.

"Harry, why does she think she can hit me? What gives her the right... She's the one who abandoned Hackett when he was unconscious in the hospital. Why does she think she can hit me now?" Yumi was aggrieved and questioned. However, Harry didn't say anything. Instead, he looked at Yumi's swollen cheek and said, "Stay here for a while, and I'll go find an ice pack for you."

As Yumi walked away, an eerie laugh escaped her. The hospital corridor was eerily quiet, making her laughter sound even more unsettling. Yumi couldn't wait to see how Hackett would react to Valeria after learning all this!

In the ward.

Valeria sat by the bedside and looked at the sleeping Hackett. His face was pale, and he seemed to be having a troubled dream.

Worried, Valeria held Hackett's hand, and she watched as the furrowed lines on his forehead slowly smoothed out.

In his current state, Valeria dared not mention Alex to Hackett. Besides, Hackett's wounds hadn't completely healed yet, and taking a flight for over ten hours was simply not realistic. Hackett might pass out halfway. After what felt like an eternity, Hackett finally woke up and slowly opened his pitch-black eyes.

However, this time, the first thing he saw upon waking was Valeria, the woman who claimed to be his wife.

When Valeria saw Hackett's eyes open, her face lit up with joy. "You're awake! How are you feeling? Do you uncomfortable anywhere? I'll go call the doctor for you."
