    Hackett walked into the elevator and pressed the button for the seventeenth floor. As the elevator rose, he wondered what this woman called Tia was up to.


    She had speciallye back from Emmerick and rented a house for half a year. Obviously, it was not to settle do deal with some matters.ConTEent bel0ngs to N?v(e)lD/rama(.)Org .


    With a ding, the elevator door slowly opened.


    Hackett walked out of the elevator and walked toward unit 1702.


    Standing outside the door, Hackett thought for a few seconds before pressing the doorbell.


    out to


    After pressing the doorbell, no one came to open the door for a long time. This made Hackett frown. Tyler clearly said that she was at home.


    This meant that she did not want to open the door.


    Hackett pressed the doorbell again, but no one answered still. He snorted and said to the door in a deep voice, "I know you''re at home. If you don''t open the door, I''ll use my method to get you to open the door." After a few seconds, the door opened.


    A woman wearing a bathrobe opened a door. Hackett finally saw her real face. She looked pretty, and her eyes were filled with charm.


    "Sir, who are you looking for?"


    Before Tia could finish speaking, she was interrupted by Hackett coldly. "Don''t you know my name? If you didn''t, why did you follow me to the hospital?"


    "Who followed you? Anyone withmon sense knows that the only reason a person goes to the hospital is to see a doctor. Can''t you be more reasonable? Does your family own a hospital? Why do you care so much?" Hackett said calmly, "Yes, my family owns it."


    Tia was rendered speechless. She had long heard that the James family was wealthy in Creyque. The James family had businesses in all kinds of industries.


    "Open the door."


    The man pushed the door back and walked straight in. He didn''t look like a guest at all. He looked like a burr barging in.


    Tia followed behind him. "Why are you looking for me?"


    "That''s exactly what I wanted to ask you. Why did you follow me around in the hospital? Don''t say that you''re going to see a doctor. I''ve asked someone to check. You didn''t see any doctor at the hospital today." Hackett turned around and looked straight at the woman in front of him with a dark expression.


    Tia flipped her long hair and said without changing her expression, "Can''t I visit a patient, then?"


    "Stop pretending. I saw from the records that you didn''t go there to see a doctor. Do you think I wouldn''t know if you went to visit a patient or not?" Hackett looked at the woman in front of him and was about to lose his patience.


    "Sir, I really don''t understand what you''re talking about. I was just passing by and identally bumped into that nurse. You chased after me and even came to my house. Why? Are you that nurse''s boyfriend?".

    Seeing Tia continue to y dumb, Hackett smiled. He turned around and sat down on the sofa.


    "I''m not very busy tonight. I can spend time with you."


    "Sir, you... is this appropriate? Won''t your wife and child be jealous if you stay in a single woman''s house?"

    Hackett asked, "How did you know that I have a wife and a child? Did you investigate me? Or is the word "marrie on my face?"


    ritten


    Tia really wanted to p her mouth as she had identally exposed herself, but she still pretended to be calm. "Because I have a crush on you, okay? So I investigated you."


    Hearing this exnation, the man was silent for three seconds before letting out a disdainful sneer.


    "You''re not worthy of even having a crush on me."


    When Tia heard these three words, a chill ran down her spine. This man was too arrogant.


    He had said that she wasn''t even worthy of having a crush on him.


    "Then who''s worthy? Your first wife? Aren''t you divorced too?"


    Hackett had already remarried, but he did not want to exin it to this outsider.


    Hackett still said the same thing. "Why did you follow me around? Does my DNA test have anything to do with you?"


    "No! It''s not rted at all! I was really just passing by!"


    It seemed that he would not be able to get anything useful out of this woman. He could only get Tyler to investigate. Hackett stood up and sized up the woman in front of him from top to bottom. He said, "You went to Emmerick four years ago but you suddenly came back and rented this house. Why did you do that?"


    Tia did not say anything as she stared at the man in front of her.


    This man was more difficult to deal with than she had imagined Even at a time like this, he could still remain calm and question her motives.


    If any other man saw this type of result on a DNA test report, they would probably go straight home and ask their woman what was going on.


    However, not only did Hackett not me Valeria, he did not even let Valeria know the results of the DNA test and directly went to Tia.


    At this moment, Tia doubted if her n would seed...


    Then, she watched the man leave the house. When the door closed, Tia quickly walked over and immediately closed the door.


    She couldn''t stay here anymore. She had to move!


    When Tyler, who was smoking downstairs, saw Hackett walk our of the building, he immediately stubbed out his cigarette and went up to Hackett. "Mr. James, how is it? Did that woman say anything?" "No. Send someone to Emmerick to investigate this woman."


    "Yes


    "Where would you like to go next?"


    Chapter 399.


    "Home." The man looked ufortable.


    In the manor.

    When Hackett returned, it was alreadyte at night. He thought that Valeria and his son were already asleep, so he nned to take a shower and sleep. Unexpectedly, when he returned to the bedroom, he found Valeria lying on the bed reading a book, as if she was waiting for


    him.


    Hearing the door open, Valeria looked up. Sure enough, Hackett was back.


    Her heart skipped a beat, and she suddenly felt uneasy.


    Hackett didn''t act different from usual. It was as if there was no DNA test. He said, "Why aren''t you asleep yet? I''ll take a shower first."


    Valeria wanted to say something, but when she heard that he was going to take a shower, she did not say anything. She would wait until he was done.


    About ten minutester, Hackett walked out of the bathroom with a towel around his waist. Then, he returned to the bed and took the book from her hand. "Go to bed. It''ste. You can continue reading it tomorrow."


    "I want to ask you something."


    "What?"


    Valeria looked at the man''s perfect side profile and could not help but ask, "I heard that the DNA test results showed 0% probability of paternity?" When she asked this question, she felt terrible and suffocated.


    Hackett was slightly stunned. Then, his gaze darkened. "Who told you that?"


    "Lawrence... Don''t you have any doubts at all?" Valeria was rather vexed. It seemed like Hackett didn''t n to bring this matter up to her. "There''s no need to say anything. It must be fake."


    Although she thought so too, Hackett''s reaction did surprise her
