Marriage Resumption (Valeria and Hackett)

Unlock the content CLICK HERE TO WATCH THE Valeria went downstairs and was about to go to the kitchen to get a bottle of water when she suddenly heard a knock on the door. Valeria figured that it was probably Ella who had returned.

Valeria opened the bottle of water and took two sips before walking to the living room. "Ella, you're back..." Before Valeria could finish speaking, she saw that Ella's face was injured. Valeria walked over quickly to Ella. "What happened to your face? Did someone hit you?" Looking at Ella's bruised face and swollen forehead, she looked like a victim of domestic abuse.

Valeria remembered Ella had mentioned that she was already married. Valeria wondered if Ella was a victim of domestic violence.

Ella subconsciously tried to cover the marks on her face with her hand and wanted to return to her room. "It's fine. I had an accident. I'll just put sice on it. Go to sleep." Valeria yanked Ella's hand downward and studied Ella's injuries. Ella had been beaten quite badly. These blows were serious.

"Tellwhat happened. Did you encounter a robber on the way? Or is this... domestic violence?" Valeria could tell at a glance that this was a sign of domestic violence.

1/3 < 09:54 Sat, Chapter 114 When Ella heard the words "domestic violence", she couldn't help but cry.

6 Ella threw herself into Valeria's arms. "Valeria, you're the first person to call it domestic violence. Everyone else toldthat it was just arguments between husband and wife and that things will blow over soon. But I really can't take it anymore... "Argument between husband and wife? What kind of argument can cause injuries like this? This is enough to make a report! Tellwhat's going on. Don't forget what I work as. I can help you!" Valeria pulled Ella toward the sofa and sat her down. Valeria took a closer look at Ella and realized that there were many bruises on Ella's body. This was a classic case of domestic violence, and it was the kind that would end with death "Valeria, I wanted to go back and stay for the night, but I couldn't stay for another second, so I cback here... I don't want to say anything now. Don't askanything." "Alright, alright. If you don't want to tell me, I'll find a first aid kit to treat your wounds. They're quite serious." Valeria got up and went to look for the first aid kit. However, Valeria realized she had just moved here not long ago, so the medicine in the first aid kit was incomplete. Valeria did not have enough to help Ella treat her injuries. "Wait here. I'll go to the pharmacy to get ssupplies. Alex is sleeping upstairs. Helpkeep an eye on him." With that, Valeria prepared to leave.

Ella hurriedly stood up to stop Valeria. "There's no need. I'll just put sice on it. It'll be fine soon." "What do you mean it's fine? Look at how serious your injuries are. Putting ice on it won't help. It'll get infected. Wait forhere." Valeria frowned and turned back around, walking out of the house.

Valeria had always thought that Ella had married well. Valeria did not expect Ella's husband to be an abuser. How disgusting Valeria drove out of Starry Bay and searched around for a 24-hour pharmacy.

At this moment, Valeria's phone rang.

It was a call from Hackett, but Valeria answered her phone without looking at it. "Who's speaking?" "How long are you going to keepwaiting for you in the office?" Hackett's voice sounded in Valeria's ear.

Valeria suddenly remembered that she had previously said that if Hackett waited until midnight, she would go to meet him. Valeria asked tentatively, "Are you still in the office?" "The dignified rich son of the James Group had actually stayed in the office until this time? If that was the case, none of the other employees would have dared to leave either. The James Group office building must be brightly lit tonight." Valeria thought. "So you're going back on your word?" Hackett sounded a little unhappy as if he was angry.

Coincidentally, Valeria was driving past the James Group office building. As Valeria had expected, the lights were all on.

Valeria instantly felt guilty that because of a casual comment from her, many innocent employees had to work overtime. "Who said I'm going back on my word? I'm parking downstairs now. I'll cup. Just wait." With that, Valeria hung up guiltily.

Valeria had not expected Hackett to be so patient and wait for so long in his office.

2/3 09:54 Sat, Nov 9 Chapter 114 781%[ After parking the car, Valeria entered the office building and took the elevator to the 19th floor, heading straight for Hackett's office.

When Valeria passed by the secretarial area, she realized that the secretaries were yawning listlessly, one after another.

Of course, Hackett was still in the office, so none of them had dared to leave.

Valeria walked to the CEO's office and knocked on the door. Hackett's voice cfrom inside. "Cin."

Valeria pushed open the door and O walked in. It was pitch-black inside, the only light coming from the soft moonlight streaming in from the floor-to-ceiling windows. There was also a strong smell of tobacco.

Hackett was sitting in his office chair.

He wore a black shirt and tie that m hung loosely under his collar. He looked decadent with a hint of sexiness. There was a pile of of him.

Hackett had probably gotten impatient, which was why he had called Valeria.

To ease the awkward atmosphere, Valeria coughed twice. "I didn't m expect you to wait so long. Looks like you're quite sincere in askingto be your legal consultant." "So, will you take the position?" Hackett's handsfacial features looked very three-dimensional and sharp under the moonlight.
