Shannon clenched her fists, refusing to admit to her own mistakes. She said to Yvette in a low voice, “If you’d given birth to Xav’s child during your long marriage, I wouldn’t have anxiously looked for someone
else to replace him.”
It was ridiculous for the owner of a family business not to have a child.
“You’re in no position to lecture me. No parent wouldn’t feel bad for their children.” After saying that, she left.
Yvette stood still and felt slightly sad for some reason. Yara had never cared for her. That was why she’d interfered earlier.
Just as she was in a daze, someone grabbed her hand from behind.
“Thank you, Yvvy.” Xavier was happier than ever.
When she felt his hand, she returned to her senses and hurriedly pulled her hand back. “You don’t have to thank me. I was just acting on impulse when I thought you were pitiful. That’s all.”
Then, she immediately went to Viola’s room. She wondered if the commotion downstairs had scared the latter.
Fortunately, Zachary had gone out to do some shopping with Ray earlier and hadn’t run into Shannon.
Meanwhile, Shannon was also frustrated on her way back. She couldn’t believe Yvette had such a temper now that she’d lectured her. After all, she was still Yvette’s mother-in-law! She pinched the bridge of her nose and asked the driver to drive faster. They were in the middle of the county, and there was heavy traffic. So, they couldn’t go any faster.
She opened the window in frustration. At that moment, she saw a small figure nearby. “Zac! Why is he here as well?”
She told the driver to stop the car and alighted the vehicle. Then, she ran toward Zachary. She had been busy recently, but she had never stopped looking into his background.
She had assumed that Leonard was his father. But when she’d asked him about it in private, she learned that it wasn’t the case.
She’d told someone to look into it further and realized that Kiki never had a boyfriend when she was abroad. The latter’s social circle seemed normal, and she’d never given birth to a son.
Upon realizing that Zachary wasn’t Kiki’s son at all, she’d gotten someone to keep looking for his biological mother.
She kept thinking about how much he resembled Xavier. She thought there was a chance that he was Xavier’s illegitimate son.
Shanon ran for a while, but she still didn’t see Zachary at all. She thought she had mistaken someone else for him and had no choice but to return to her car.
Meanwhile, Zachary let out a breath of relief nearby. He didn’t understand why Shannon was there.
“Let’s hurry back now, Mr. Septer,” he immediately said. He was certain she was there to look for trouble with Xavier and Yvette when he saw her.
“Sure.”
When Zachary saw that his family was still at home, he could finally relax.
He went to Viola’s room and asked Hannah about what had happened. It turned out that Shannon had come to take Xavier home, but the latter wouldn’t leave at all.
When Yvette noticed that Zachary
had come back, she thought of
Noah. He was receiving treatment at the hospital by himself. Since the New Year was around the corner, she figured he shouldn’t be atone at the hospital.
She knocked on the door to Xavier’s bedroom and entered the room.
“I have something to tell you.” Yvette hesitated for a moment and said, “Mark has probably told you that I have another son, right?
“His name is Noah, and I want to bring him home tonight. Make sure you don’t say anything stupid. He’s not feeling well.”
She only wanted to inform him about it; she wasn’t asking for his permission. After telling him that, she left for the hospital to pick up Noah.
Noah was different from
Zachary he seemed more like a
normal child compared to the latter. Since he was just an average
е
four-year-old child, she decided to lie
to him.
When she reached the hospital, she е said, “Noah, Mr. Xavier is staying with us now. He’s really pitiful, He can’t see anything and is sick and
he has no one to take care of him.”
Noah went along with her and said, “I understand, Mom. He must be an orphan, right?”
