After all, she had always hoped they would divorce.
Wesley only asked, “What about you?”
He wanted her answer.
He threatened her with Noah, keeping her by his side, but deep down, he wanted her wholehearted devotion.
He even wanted to give her a grand wedding.
Prisci didn’t answer. She closed her eyes and mumbled, “Let’s talk about itter.”
Wesley was a little disappointed, but he knew he couldn’t rush things.
After all, he knew just how much he had overstepped.
Now that she was by his side, he would take things slowly.
So he simply kept kissing her, the intensity of it making her heart race.
His tender kisses were full of gentleness.
“Will you wait for me at the office until I get off work?” he asked softly.
It seemed he was bing more and more reluctant to let her leave his side.
A hint of anticipation appeared in Prisci’s bright eyes. “Shall we go see Noah?”

He was Noah’s savior, and Noah should meet him properly.
Wesley was in a good mood and agreed to her request.
Hospital.
Noah had regained his lively demeanor.
He threw himself into Prisci’s arms, his eyes sparkling. “Mommy, Daddy said there’s an uncle willing to save me. I’ll be better soon!”
Prisci kissed his forehead, her eyes full of tenderness. “Yes, the uncle is here. Noah, will you thank him?”
Noah immediately climbed off the bed, his little face serious and
earnest.
“Uncle, my name is Noah. Thank you for being willing to save me.
Prisci stroked his hair, her eyes brimming with tears.
At this moment, everything was worth it.
It was the first time Wesley had looked at Noah so closely.
He looked a lot like Prisci–thin and small from illness, with very pale skin.
He looked like a pitiful little kitten.
Wesley patted the child’s head and softened his tone: “No need to thank me.”
He was polite, but his attitude couldn’t be called gentle.
He didn’t really like this child.
Besides, after the surgery, they probably wouldn’t have much to do

with each other.
No one expected Noah to suddenly throw himself into Wesley’s arms, his little arms wrapped around Wesley’s neck and his legs clinging to his waist.
Prisci was stunned.
Wesley froze.
Noah cried out loudly, “Uncle, catch me quick, I don’t have any strength left!”
His body started to slide down.
By the time Wesley reacted, his hand was already supporting Noah’s small body.
It was his first time holding such a frail child; his whole body was stiff, unsure whether to hold tighter or let go.
Once Noah was steady, he smacked a kiss on Wesley’s cheek and loudly announced, “I like this uncle!”
A smile flickered in Prisci’s eyes. “Call him Wesley.”
“Wesley.” Noah called out affectionately.
Wesley felt a bit awkward, but his body rxed and he responded with a faint “Mm.”
Prisci took the child and put him on the bed, pinching his little cheek. “Wesley likes you too.”
Wesley’s dark eyes nced at Prisci.
He really didn’t like this little brat.

But the tenderness on Prisci’s face, the love in her eyes, was like a beam of light piercing the deepest part of his heart.
The retort on his lips was swallowed back, and he didn’t even realize a faint smile had appeared at the corner of his mouth.
“Mommy, when Noah gets better, will you go home with Noah?” Noah tugged at Prisci’s clothes, refusing to let go. “Noah wants to be with Mommy and Daddy.”
Prisci hadn’t thought that far ahead. She just went along with his words tofort him. “When you get better, Mommy will go home with you.”
The smile at the corner of Wesley’s mouth disappeared instantly.
He pulled Prisci by the shoulder, his eyes full of displeasure. “Whose home are you going back to?”
Prisci was helpless. She whispered an exnation: “I’m just trying to reassure him.”
Noah didn’t notice that his beloved Wesley looked upset. He kept acting cute, hoping his mother would agree.
He wished, like other children, that he could be with both his parents.
Prisci thought of Luciano’s amnesia and casually asked, “How did you know I was your mommy?”
Luciano had lost his memory, so logically he wouldn’t have mentioned Noah’s birth mother.
“From a photo! I saw it at great–grandma’s ce.” Noah tilted his little face, seeking praise. A photo of Mommy and another pretty auntie…”
“Wait, great–grandma said I should call her grandma instead.”

Prisci was momentarily lost in thought. A photo with another pretty auntie?
As far as she remembered, there were very few photos of them.
The other pretty auntie… did he mean the teacher?
The teacher’sst name was indeed Wilkinson…
Could she be from the Wilkinson family?
Her thoughts drifted far away.
