hezekiah loved GOD very much but but that was not the issue that made GOD add him years

At that time Hezekiah did not as yet have a son, and it therefore appeared that the royal Davidic line was in danger of being broken. Hezekiah prayed to Jehovah fervently, with tears, whereupon Jehovah sent Isaiah back to inform Hezekiah that he would have 15 years added to his life. A miraculous sign was given, the shadow of the sun being caused to move ten steps backward on “the stairs of Ahaz.” In the third year after that, Hezekiah had a son called Manasseh, who later succeeded him on the throne.

in those years Hezekiah also had Manasseh who turned out to be about the worst king in the history of Israel in those years
It's hard to say why it happened that way...
and perhaps Manasseh was embittered because although God promised peace in Hezekiah's day war would come in Manasseh's day.. as bitterness leads to problems in youth maybe so that was part of the reasons Manasseh fought bitterly against God... but he should have humbled himself as his father did

God added years to Hezekiah's life because he hmbled himself and pleaded his cause... and he repented his evils before the Lord God...

This seems like it could have been an interesting question, however you have botched the sentence so bad I can not understand it. Will you try again?
