Edward sighed, his gaze falling on his heavily bandaged body. “Am I really that fragile? It’s just a fractured bone,” Kyle retorted with a grin. “You’re all about flaunting your mobility, but you can’t avoid saving.”

Edward smiled, continuing to engage in the banter. “Hundred days to heal injured tendons and bones?”

“Wing your name playing the mighty,” Kyle replied playfully.

I understand With erris unuation settled and Juana no particularly upset, Natalie felt a sense of relief. Strangely enough, she didn’t feel overly worried about Hackett’s uation. As she descended the stairs, she cathe to a sudden halt, her eyes widening in astonishment

In the play area of a distant revidential complex, a man stood beneath the monkey bars, his sleek black suit accentuated by the warm golden rays of sunlight With a hint of a smile gracing his otherwise stern countenance, he stood tall and composed, his strong arms effortlessly supporting a child who ragerly clung to the bars Every movement he made was deliberate an! utious, ready to protect and assist immediately

The chuld zoggled and separated with delight, clearly familiar with this playful routine. The sight before her was something she had never expected to witness

An inglese ribable pang of bittersweet emotions flooded her heart, leaving her torn and conflicted. She leaned against the nearby wall, taking a moment to compone herself. After a deep breath and a few minutes of contemplation, she straightened her pesture and released a sigh as if resolving something within.

As she drew closer, the man’s gaze shafted towards her, has suspended movement coming to a halt. Even the child turned to glance at the man, ratching sight of Natalie Excitedly, the child began to wiggle and dance, calling out, “Mommy, Motary Gently, the man set Jasper down, has intention to walk toward Natalie evident. However, as soon as Jasper laid eyes on Natalie heurkly disregarded the man, peishing ham away swiftly

Natalie observed the man’s empty hands, a sense of enginess echoing within her heart.

Without acknowledging him or questioning his presence with Jasper, Natalie focused on lifting Jasper off the ground. Softly and tenderly, the inspired, “Are you tired from playing? Feeling warm?”

In a sweet and innocent voice, Jasper responded, “Not warm. Mommy, this is my good friend.”

Natalie narrowed her eyes, her brows furrowing in confusion. “What do you mean by good friend?*

Lena couldn’t help but smile “Miss Natalie, let me explain. This gentleman here is the same person whom Jasper accidentally bumped into earlier. Today, he bought a toy to apologize to Jasper, and Jasper graciously accepted it. They Natalie was speechless. Have I seen him before? Was his interaction with Jasper merely a façade?

He didn’t approach her too closely, maintaining his position while his gaze remained fixated on her face. His expression was inscrutable, concealing any hints of emotion, but there was a subtle softness in his eyes that hadn’t been there before.

It was as if he could decipher her thoughts. In a soft-spoken voice, he reassured her. “My pursuit of you has nothing to do with Jasper.”

Lena pondered, “What did I just hear? Is this gentleman pursuing Miss Natalie?”

Miss Natalie was not only beautiful but also kind-hearted. It wasn’t uncommon for suitors to pursue her, even back in Sapphire City. However, this gentleman exuded undeniable charm and sophistication, hinting at his affluent background.

Lena’s mind was already spinning with countless scenarios, and Trevon’s question nearly made her dizzy.

Natalie picked up on his attempt to explain that his pursuit wasn’t solely because of Jasper but because of her. With at dismissive tone, she responded, “It’s not relevant to me.”

Trevon’s gaze darkened, a hint of disappointment creeping into his eyes. Nevertheless, he persisted and wanted to ask her directly. “What about the child…?”

She swiftly intercepted his words, her voice firm, “My personal life is not as chaotic as you might think. However, the child has no connection to you. If there is any connection, it is merely biological. I seek a committed father for my child, but I am not unreasonable. 1 cannot change the fact that you are Jasper’s biological father. So, I won’t deny you the opportunity to be a part of his life. That is my greatest compromise. But if you intend to contest custody, be prepared for a fierce battle. I hope it doesn’t come to that, but I won’t back down if you insist.”

Natalie’s most significant fear now was that Trevon would use the custody battle to pressure her into compromising. Rather than hiding or evading, she decided to confront the situation head-on. When her uncle suggested changing the date, she had initially argued against it. She knew full well that with Trevon’s power and influence, he would quickly uncover information about Jasper if he genuinely wanted to. However, her uncle and the others ultimately decided to proceed with the change, showing their respect for her by reframing from prying into Jasper’s paternity.

As long as she didn’t explicitly reveal it, her uncle and the others rarely probed further, displaying their deep respect for her boundaries.

Trevon was infuriated yet impressed by this woman’s ability to leave him seething with just a few words. He recalled telling her that his personal life wasn’t as chaotic, and now she had cleverly turned his words against him.

Gritting his teeth, he suppressed his inner turmoil and asked, “Is that how you see me?”

Natalie handed Jasper over to Lena and instructed, “Lena, please take Jasper upstairs for now. I’ll join you shortly.”

Lena took the child from Natalie, her mind still reeling from the revelation, and she watched Natalie with concern as she ascended the stairs, glancing back multiple times.

Natalie straightened her back and met his visibly colder gaze as she spoke softly, “So you’re saying you have no intention of contesting custody with me?”

“I have never stated that I want to engage in a custody battle with you. Even if I discovered that Jasper is my child, I have no desire to separate him from you” Because I want both you and our son, why would I want to tear them apart?

Natalie had a hint of skepticism in her eyes, searching for the truth. “Are you being sincere?” She preferred a peaceful resolution, but if necessary, she would have her uncle confront him. She would not compromise when it came to their child.

“I speak only the truth. You can dismiss anything I said two years ago, but every word I have spoken to you since your return has been genuine. My pursuit of you was sincere, and now my decision not to fight you for Jasper is also sincere. You can trust me on that,”

Natalie said, “If you mean what you say, that’s all I ask for. No need to mix in a confession of feelings as if it changes anything.

Are you out of your mind?”

“I hope you’re true to your word and won’t go back on it. After all, you’re Mr. Wilson, a prominent figure in Athana.” Natalie wanted to discourage him from trying to take Jasper away from her.

However, Trevon’s perspective on the matter was different. He felt a sense of joy in his expression as he replied, “L, Trevon, always keep my promises. His words were spoken with sincerity and determination.

The language was an expansive and intricate realm where each individual’s capacity for understanding varied. The Interpretation of a single sentence could diverge significantly depending on the individual. In this case, their perspectives were entirely out of sync.

As he gazed at her retreating figure, he couldn’t help but notice how stunning she looked today. It had been years since they last saw each other, and her sense of style had transformed remarkably. She adorned herself in a charming milky-colored floral dress layered with a vibrant grass-green suit jacket. Completing her ensemble was a pair of elegant milky-colored high-heeled shoes.

She emanated an air of grace and femininity. How had he failed to recognize her striking beauty all these years?

Trevon couldn’t help but admit that she was growing more stunning by the day, defying the natural process of aging
