"Should I show Hackett's photo to the kid?" Alex and Hackett looked more than alike. The boy looked nearly identical to his father.
However, she did not intend to let the child go back to the James family. There was no point in showing Hackett's photo to the child.
Hence, she lied. "Baby, I'm sorry. I don't have Daddy's phone, so I can't show it to you." Upon hearing her words, disappointment was written all over Alex's face. His sparkling eyes dimmed a little as he pouted. "Alright, forget it then... Daddy really doesn't love us. Otherwise, why would he not even leave a photo to you? I hate him even more." Right then, Ella walked to the living room and shouted, "Alex, Valeria, the food is ready. Cover." Alex pouted and walked into the dining room unhappily. After taking a few steps, he turned around and called his mother, "Mommy, let's eat." 1/3 < 09:55 Sat, Nov 9 Chapter 120 Suddenly, Valeria's heart ached terribly.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtIt was heart wrenching to watch her son's dejected figure from hind. The boy just wanted to see his father's photo, but she couldn't even satisfy such a simple request. Valeria got up and went to the dining room. Looking at her son sitting obediently on the dining chair, she felt like a fist was slowly closing over her heart. "What's wrong with you? Why do you look so glum?" After Ella placed a bowl of soup on the table, she noticed that something was wrong between the mother and son. Valeria smiled and shook her head. "Nothing. Let's cat." After dinner, Ella bathed the child and put him to sleep. Whereas Valeria went to the terrace alone to get sfresh air.
There had been too many things going on in the past two days, making her head spin.
The only thought on her mind then was to find evidence to prove her innocence, but she didn't know how. Suddenly, her phone rang.
Valeria took a look. It was Keith. He was calling probably because she hadn't gone to the law office that day. She collected herself and answered the phone. "Keith." "Are you okay?" Keith did not ask her why she did not go to the law office or what had happened.
"I'm fine." "You didn't do that to Cheryl's face, did you? I don't think you're that stupid. Even if you nurse a deep grudge, you wouldn't do such a thing." Valeria smiled. "Of course, it's not me. I'll find evidence to prove my innocence." On the other end of the phone, Keith was silent for a few seconds before saying, "That surveillance footage is the damning evidence. It's unlikely you can find other strong evidence." Valeria's smile gradually disappeared. Of course, she knew that.
Keith said again, "I can help you if you." "How are you going to help me?"It was a hopeless case. Valeria didn't want to make things difficult for Keith. "You don't have to worry about that. I have my ways. If I help you uncover the truth, can you agree to my request?"
Valeria looked up at the starry sky. She did not understand what Keith was trying to do. However, all shen needed to do at the juncture was to bring the truth to light first. Otherwise, the longer it dragged on, the more it would harm her. "Sure, as long as you helpunmask the truth, I can agree to your request." "Then wait for my good news. Good night." After hanging up, Valeria fell into deep thought, pondering over what Keith would do.
On the other hand, Keith was sitting in the car downstairs. After getting Valeria's reply, he stepped on the accelerator and headed straight to the hospital.
At the hospital.

Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmHe strode to Cheryl's ward and knocked on the door. The woman's voice could be heard from inside. "Cin." Keith pushed open the door and walked in. Cheryl had been severely depressed since she was hospitalized because of her marred face "What are you doing here? Defending Valeria and askingto let her go?" Cheryl questioned him with hostility when she looked up and saw him.
Presenting a professional look, Keith walked into the ward and sat on a chair at the side. "I'm here to talk to you and see you." He put the bouquet of flowers aside.
Cheryl snorted coldly. "Cut your pretense. I don't need your hypocritical compassion. You're here to cajoleon behalf of Valeria. Are you trying to soundout? Or do you want a record our conversation? You lawyers love to play these tricks. She was the one who ruined my face. How dare she send you here!" Keith raised his eyebrows slightly. "Ms. Yeats, you do know a lot about lawyers."
"That's because I played a role as a lawyer before and know what a lawyer will do, Do you have anything all else to say? I know all your tricks.
I Don't waste your there." Cheryl only wanted to be alone. Besides, she didn't want anyone to see her face. Keith coughed. "I actually want to tell you a secret."
