Chapter 267


    Seeing the person at the door, Chloe stood up,


    “Sorry to keep you waiting for so long.”


    As she spoke, she walked over to Hugo, bent down and patted his head.


    “Let’s go out for some fresh air,” Chloe said, picking up Hugo.


    Damon frowned and walked over to Chloe.


    “Was that you ying the piano just now?”


    Yeah, it was.‘


    “Why are you holding him?”


    His voice was a bit cold, and he reached out to take the child from Chloe’s arms, his indifferent eyes


    also looking at the child in her arms.


    However, when he saw the child’s face, his eyebrows suddenly furrowed even tighter.


    His gaze stayed on Hugo’s face for a few seconds, a hint of doubt shing in his eyes.


    “Don’t…”


    Chloe refused Damon, then pointed at Hugo’s eyes and shook her head.


    Damon understood, nced at the child’s eyes, and finally withdrew his hand. This content is ? N?velDrama.Org.


    As it grew darker, Nate left early for some errands, and Damon went to get the car.


    When the dean escorted Chloe out, they were still talking about Hugo.


    “Hugo seems to be in a good mood today. It looks like he really likes Jete.”


    The dean smiled and shook his head, “That’s not the only reason. The child’s mother sent a


    message through someone, saying that she has been behaving well in prison for the past few years


    and will be released early, possibly within a few days.”


    “Really? That’s great.”


    Chloe was genuinely happy. Hugo’s long–awaited mother was finally going to meet him.


    In this world, there is no love that can rece or surpass the love between a mother and her child.


    Even if Hugo had no memory of his mother, the person he most wanted to see was still her.


    The dean also nodded with relief, “Yes, it’s great. It’s just a pity that… Hugo can’t see what his


    mother looks like…”


    The kind–hearted dean felt a bit tangled in his heart, thinking that after all the hardships, there was


    still some regret.


    Chloe smiled faintly, “Compared to those children who can never find their parents, he’s considered


    lucky…”


    The dean sighed, “Well, I guess that’s one way to think about it.”


    Damon’s car drove up, Chloe said goodbye to the dean, and got in the car.


    “Is that child an orphan?”


    “No. His mother is still alive.”


    Damon frowned slightly, his deep eyes quietly looking at the road ahead. After a while, he asked


    again:


    “What about his father?”


    His voice was a bit low, and Chloe couldn’t help but nce at him. That handsome face had a rare


    seriousness.


    “Why do you care so much? Is Hugo yours…”


    Damon suddenly turned his head, looking at her coldly with a warning in his eyes that made Chloe’s


    heart tighten. “I don’t know who the child’s father is, and I don’t even know who his mother is. All I


    know is that she’s in prison.” Damon’s eyes narrowed slightly, and he didn’t say anything, as if he


    was thinking about something.


    Chloe looked at him seriously, her expression bing serious as well.


    “Damon, you better not tell me that this child is actually rted to you…”


    Her voice carried a clear chill. Damon looked at her, the vignce in her eyes and the determination


    to face any difficulty made a chill rise in his heart.
