Chapter 146
Keith's words completely infuriated Hackett. Hackett had long disliked Keith, and now Keith had dared to bring the trouble to him
In the next second. Hackett punched Keith's face. Keith's face tilted to the side, and blood seeped out of the corner of his mouth "What the fuck does that have to do with you! Try saying that again!"
Keith smiled and wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth "Why? Are you feeling guilty? Wasn't what I said the truth? You were the one who did it. Why are you afraid of others talking about it?" "Great! Don't regret it!"
As he spoke, Hackett pulled off the tie under his shirt collar and looked like he was ready to fight. This frightened Valeria.
"Hackett, stop! Stop fighting! This is a public place!"
Valeria went forward and grabbed the man's arm, but the man pushed her aside. This is a matter between men. You don't have to care
Keith said, "Valeria, do you have to be covered in wounds before you learn your lesson? Do you really want to bring the child back to his side? Don't forget how he treated you and your son back then. A leopard never changes its spots!" Halfway through his sentence, Keith let out a muffled groan. Hackett had punched him in the face again. This time, he fell to the ground.
Hackett was completely enraged. "Are you really tired of living? How dare you sow discord in front of me! You're courting death!"
After saying that, he was about to step on him again when Valeria screamed, "Hackett James, stop!"
She knew Hackett's temper too well. He could not control himself at all once he got angry. He was going to beat the other party to death once he started fighting.
Keith looked gentlemanly and was so thin and weak. How could be withstand being beaten up by Hackett?
However, they were both at the height of their fury. The war between both men had already begun. No one could stop it.
Keith stood up from the ground and wanted to counterattack. However, just as he was about to punch Hackett, Hackett hit him again.
Hackett had practiced brawling for many years, and his body had developed an instinct for fighting.
"Mommy!"
Alex, who suddenly walked over, witnessed this scene. He was so frightened that he stood rooted to the ground and did not dare to move. He was gripping Tyler's fingers with his little hand
The little guy was so frightened when he saw the injuries on Keith's face and how domineering and fierce Hackett was that he cried. Tears welled up in his eyes.
Hearing the child's cry, Hackett immediately stopped and looked back. "Alex..."
"Alex, don't be afraid." Valeria walked to her son's side and hugged the areneved Alex who was about to cry.
Keith did not expect the child to appear here either. For a moment, he did not know how to react.
"Mommy, is Hackett a bad person? Why did he hit Keith? Hacker is so fierce... Alex said to her in a choked voice.
e was more hurt than Hackett when he heard these words
No one
Bad person...
He had now become a bad person in the child's eyes.
How was he going to explain why he was hitting someone to the child?
Half an hour later.

Hackett drove Valeria and the child home. Keith also decided to leave for the time being because of the child's appearance, afraid of scaring the child.
However, in the car, Alex was clearly much more distant from Hackett. He did not talk to him anymore and obediently leaned against Valeria along the way. There was a hint of timidity in his eyes. The car slowly stopped outside Starry Bay.
"Alex, say goodbye to Hackett. We're going home. Valeria looked down at Alex beside her.
Alex kept staring at the man in the driver's seat. Then, without saying a word, he pushed open the door and quickly slipped out of the car. It was as if he was hiding from a bad guy.
Hackett suffered another blow. He thought, "The kid no longer wants to talk to me?"
He pushed open the car door and got out. He walked toward Alex with his long legs and blocked his way in just two steps. However, before he could speak, the little guy screamed in fear, Mommy, save me!" "Save him?" Hackett thought.
He was confused. "Why is the kid shouting for help?"
Valeria got out of the car and walked over. Alex immediately hid behind her and looked at Hackett as if he was looking at a ferocious beast.
"Help? Why are you shouting for help? Will I eat you?" Hackett's eyes were filled with confusion.
Alex hid behind Valeria. "Hackett hit Keith. He's a bad person. Mommy said to stay away from bad people."
Valeria was speechless.
She had taught this little brat to stay away from bad people, but he did not expect him to use the logic on Hackett now.
Hackett thought, "Keith! Keith! It's Keith again!
"Why is he so friendly toward Keith and so distant toward me!"
He had the urge to beat Keith up again.
Hackett slowly squatted down on one knee and looked at the little face which looked exactly the same as his. He explained patiently, "I can explain everything to you. It wasn't like what you saw just now. Also, you shouldn't call Keith your father so casually. Keith isn't your father, understand?"
"You're a bad person. You hit Keith. Keith is a good person!"
.
After saying that, the little guy ran into the villa as if he was escaping.
Hackett stood up and wanted to chase after him. He had to teach this little brat a lesson. Alex was acknowledging a bad person as his father.
"Forget it. He won't listen to anything you say now," Valeria grabbed the man's arm.

"Is this how you teach your child? He's recognizing a bad person as his father. Why is he calling Keith his father and I'm only his uncle? I'm his father!"
The jealousy in the man's heart kept fermenting. He could not tolerate this at all.
"What does this have to do with me? Besides, what do you mean by Alex recognizing a bad person as his father? Keith has been taking care of us for the past four years when we were overseas. So what if he subconsciously treats him as his father? Who asked you to hit Keith in front of the child?"
Valeria felt that Hackett was unreasonable. As Keith said, a leopard would never change its spots.
She did not expect Hackett to be a benevolent father. It was impossible for him given his fiery temper.
Hackett was rendered speechless.
He shouldn't have hit Keith in front of the child just now. It left a bad impression on Alex.
The little bit of kinship he had built with the child was destroyed in an instant.
Hackett was thinking about how to repair his image in his son's heart so that he would no longer be afraid of him or hate him.
Seeing that Hackett did not speak for a long time, Valeria said, "You should go back. It's very late."
Hackett suddenly said. "I'll come and pick you up tomorrow."
"I know. I'll pack my suitcase tonight." She nodded.
The attitude of the Cooper family had rendered her too afraid to talk to Keith about marriage without love anymore. She even felt that it was a little ridiculous.
The man added, "Let me stay with you for a few days. I want to ease my relationship with my son."
Valeria was shocked.
She widened her eyes and thought, "This man is really shameless How dare he make such an unreasonable request!"
