Noah looked at the boy's cautious and frightened expression.
For some reason, he thought about how Rosalynn had been clearly telling him all these years that her feelings for him were just brotherly and sisterly love.
However
he was cautiously holding onto his obsession, always hoping that one day their sibling bond would change.
As long as she didn't fall in love with someone else, he'd have a chance.
All those years in front of her, he was also so careful, carrying the constant anxiety of fearing she might suddenly fall for someone else.
Yeah.
..
From beginning to end, it was just his wishful thinking.
So where did his rage and resentment come from now?
Did he really want to hurt the person he had loved for so many years because of this?
All she did was choosing the person she loved,
and that person happened to be the father of her child.
What did she do wrong?
Noah...
"Why aren't you talking?" the boy's voice got a little quieter, "My sister is too young to eat much, but she'll be able to help you with work when she grows up."
"As long as you're willing, I'll adopt you both," Noah came back to his senses.
The boy stared at Noah in shock.
"But before that, I need to leave temporarily to take care of something," Noah continued.
The boy got nervous, "What are you going to do? Will it take a long time?"
"Do you know what a knight is?" Noah asked with a smile.
Britney raised her hand high, "I know! Knights protect princesses!"
That was what she heard from other little girls at the community playground.
Noah nodded with a smile, "Yes! I'm going to complete the knight's last protection of the princess."
"I thought that if I refused to cooperate with the Latham couple, they would definitely find someone else, so I agreed to help. I wanted to see if I could help or give you some key information during the process," Noah told Rosalynn, "But Latham and Yvonne kept a close eye on me, so I couldn't get in touch with you."
"Thank you," Rosalynn choked out.
Noah looked at her, his eyes deep and melancholy, as if he wanted to remember her forever.
"I've switched the medicine Yvonne gave me, so don't worry about Granny Hilaria having any side effects," Noah gently patted Rosalynn's shoulder, "I don't plan to walk the rest of the road with you."
Rosalynn looked at Noah,
tears streaming down her face.
Noah's eyes also welled up with tears, and he smiled slightly, saying, "I don't want to be a tortured second male lead in a romantic drama. You don't have to worry about feeling guilty. I have my own world waiting for me."
Rosalynn nodded firmly, "I know you'll be able to live a great life."
Noah lowered his head
and patted Rosalynn's shoulder again, "I’m leaving."
"Take care, Noah." Rosalynn said.
