Chapter 391
Jeremiah looked up at Yvette at the same time. It felt different from the gathering last night. At that moment, it felt like they were the only people on the face of Earth.
Yvette's pupils constricted a little. Before she returned to her senses, someone suddenly held her from behind.
"Where are you brushing your teeth on the balcony? It's so cold out here. What if you get sick?" Xavier asked with a hoarse voice.
She returned to her senses and immediately looked away. Then, she got out of his embrace. Fortunately, he couldn't see anything now.
"I'm fine. It's not cold." Then, she immediately returned to her room.
All Yvette knew was that he was blind. However, she didn't know that he had eyes everywhere. From the moment Jeremiah had arrived, someone had already told Xavier about it.
He stood on the balcony as the cold wind blew on his face. Suddenly, his phone started ringing. He accepted it; it was a call from Jeremiah.
"Mom said you have lost your memories, and it seems like it's true. I shall remind you one more time that the person Yvvy likes has always been me. She doesn't like you." As Jeremiah spoke, he kept his gaze on Xavier. Then, he ended the call and walked away in the snow.
After he gave Xavier the reminder, the memories that the latter had purposely suppressed came back in waves.
He remembered how Yvette had once told him that she had never liked him at all and how she had made a mistake.
By the time Yvette was done washing up, she had recomposed herself. She looked at Xavier after simply tidying up their belongings. "Are you ready? Let's go back now."
"Yeah." She didn't realize something was wrong with him.
As they traveled home in a car, he didn't say a single word. Yvette enjoyed the peace and quiet as she looked at the snow outside. It seemed like they both had a lot on their minds. However, neither of them wanted to say anything at all.
When they arrived in Sangine County, Yvette finally realized Noah was missing.
No one was in his room, and he had left a note behind. "Zac, I need to leave for a while to get something done. I'll be back in two days."
"When did Noah go missing?" she asked. Zachary told her how Noah had still been at home the previous night.
She trembled in fear. "Did something take him away?"
He shook his head and had a hunch in his mind. "Mom, Noah said he wanted to see you last night. Did he go to Tirion?"
When she heard that, she immediately headed to her car, wanting to look for Noah. Xavier also sent someone to look for Noah.
Yvette was anxious as she traveled in the car. "Don't worry. I've told someone to check the surveillance cameras," Xavier said.
"How could I possibly not worry? Noah has always been weak. What if something happens to him outside?"Belongs to (N)ôvel/Drama.Org.
She was so anxious that her eyes had turned red. She thought about what Zachary had said and figured Noah might have gone to Lane Mansion.
"Can you call someone from the mansion and ask if they saw any children there?"
"Sure." Xavier called Luther immediately. After a short while, he found out that Noah had reached out to Shannon and that she'd arranged a room for him there.
When Yvette heard that, she felt complicated. She wondered how Noah had found his way to the mansion. She also didn't understand why Shannon had made him stay. Did Shannon find out something?
"Ray, please take me to Lane Mansion." She didn't care anymore at that moment.
...
Noah had been staying in a hospital for too long. He thought Yvette and Xavier would stay at the mansion for a few days. That was why he wasn't in a rush to return home.
He looked at Shannon, who was in deep sleep. She was exhausted after he'd ordered her around the whole night Then, he asked the maid to take him out for a walk.
"Why are you here, Zachary?" Suddenly, he heard a young child's voice.
