Noah fed me mouthful by mouthful and my tears uncontrollably fell into the bowl. He wiped my tears gently and teased me, "Oh baby, you’re really grateful that you have me as your husband, right?"
I lowered my eyes and said nothing. I wasn't moved, but I felt miserable. This kind of treatment was only available to me because Airish repeatedly asked him. I just benefited from her.
Seeing me like this, Noah hugged me in distressed, "Baby, are you thinking about the baby again?"
When he mentioned it, I broke down again and burst into tears. Noah was so anxious that he turned around and finally it seemed like a flash of inspiration, "Well, I heard that your sister also has a child abroad. I wonder if you know that he’s always been homeless. Why don't we bring him here and raise him as our own? We can tell the world that you gave birth to him. I’ll help you talk to your sister and you can save yourself from criticism."
I looked up at him blankly. If I hadn't known what Noah did behind my back, I would have thought he was thinking about me. However, I had already decided to leave Chilverstone.
"You’re right. I believe it can make everyone happy."
Noah was surprised and hugged me as he promised like an oath, "I will treat you well for the rest of my life, Nadine. When the child grows up, we will go sightseeing. Don't you always want to go back and see where you grew up?"
He kept talking about the beautiful future, but he didn't know that this perfect new life would never start, because I was leaving.
Noah was so impatient that he took Airish and the child back to Chilverstone within two or three days to hold a family dinner.
"I thought I should also tell my parents. They must’ve been missing their grandchildren too." Noah looked at me cautiously, afraid that I would be angry.
In the Clark Family villa, my parents teased Eric. Their faces full of joy as grandparents for the first time. Airish sat next to them, just like a little girl.
My mother cherished her grandson and caressed Airish with pity, "You’ve been struggling outside. Don't worry, dear, your child will be the first grandson of our family!"
I felt my eyes stung, but I still smiled and went forward to say hello. My parents were extremely cold all of a sudden, "Who are you showing your bad face to? Are you deliberately making things difficult for us? Look at Airish, how much more sensible she is than you."
