Noah suddenly felt saddened.
The old woman, who was behind them, walked over. She had always been a reasonable person. She looked at the tearful Jane and said, "My child, there was nothing to feel sorry about. I love you, and Noah also loved you. Your happiness is the most important thing."
Noah also nodded.
However, Jane shook her head firmly instead. "No, Mrs. Hill! No! The person I love is Noah. It's truly Noah."
After saying that, she then looked at Noah. "Noah, I know that Alex may not be that bad, but I also know him better than you. The woman he was truly waiting for was actually Lily Parker. He would even call out her name in his dream sometimes.
"He doesn’t love me.
"I used to love him back then. I loved him very much.
"However, I figured one thing out now. He and I are not people from the same world, do you understand?
"The Poole family of Kidon City is not a family that a woman like me can marry into. I am already more than thirty years old. I know very well what kind of life I need.
"My youth has long been gone. I just want to live a
good, safe, and peaceful life now with you, Mrs. Hill and Noah, alright?"
Jane cried while speaking. "Mrs. Hill, Noah, don't you abandon me, alright?"
She spoke with such sincerity that Noah's heavy load o n his chest was relieved. He then smiled and said, "As long as you don’t abandon us, my mother and I will never abandon you. We’re a family, and we’ll forever b e."
"Mm-hmm. We’ll use these one million dollars to do some business in Bay County tomorrow. Noah, since you used to manage a company and you know how to do it, you can do so with this money in your hands. I plan to save those ten million dollars for the child.” Jane had already started planning their life in the future.
"Okay," said Noah, as he nodded
"Let’s go in to have a rest."
