Chapter 390
Xavier finally stopped what he was doing. When Yvette fell back asleep, he immediately went to the bathroom to take a cold shower.
Meanwhile, the maid brought Noah to a luxurious childâs bedroom. After Shannon was done sending off the guests, she hurriedly looked for him.
âIâm sorry to have kept you waiting, Zac. Would you like to have something to eat?â she asked sincerely as she approached him.
Noah looked at the beautiful middleâaged woman and thought about how evil she was. He didnât like her at all, but he said, âIâve missed you a lot, Mrs. Lane. What took you so long?â
He got up and hugged her leg, getting his snot all over her pants. Shannon was stunned to see how the so- called Zachary was clinging to her for the first time.
âIâm sorry. It was all my fault. I shouldnât have left you here alone. You have no idea how much I wanted to see you after I heard you had arrived.â Noah thought it was weird. He couldnât believe how much she liked Zachary; it was truly mindâblowing.
âReally?â He looked at her pitifully.
âOf course!â After saying that, she asked him, âWhat made you miss me so suddenly? Did your mom neglect you at home? If youâre willing, you can stay with me from now on. Iâll definitely treat you better!â Since Noah wanted to know more about the Lane family, b
said, âSure. I can do that!â
Shannon grinned happily right away. Then, she immediately told Mandy to prepare a bigger room for him,
Noah thought it was weird that she was so excited about it. After all, she didnât know he was her
biological grandson. So, he didnât understand why she would treat hi that well at all.
âIâm tired, Mrs. Lane. I want to sleep now.â
âSure. Get some rest.â
He tugged on her shirt. âCan you stay here with me, Mrs. Lane? Iâm scared.â
âOkay.â There was no way she would reject his request. She couldnât help feeling overjoyed as she looked at the mini version of Xavier.
That night, Noah didnât go easy on her at all. He would ask her to get him some water sometimes. Then, he would ask her to take him to the toilet.
She almost didnât get any sleep at all. Seeing how patient she was, Noah was confused. He didnât understand why she was being so cooperative.
He had seen her on the news and in interviews before. She had scolded and targeted celebrities before, and the netizens always scolded her too. No one liked her for being a fierce woman.
Meanwhile, Jeremiah didnât sleep that night. He listened as Jackie reported everything that had happened at the mansion.

âWhen Yvette and Xavier went back last night, many people mocked them. However, they ignored all the mockery.â
She was envious of their relationship. They were sticking together, no matter what was happening.
Jeremiah took a sip of his coffee and looked up. Then, he unexpectedly asked, âAre they staying together?
âOf course.â Jackie thought it was a weird question. Since Xavier and Yvette were husband and wife, it made sense for them to stay together.
He looked out the window as the sky slowly got brighter. âI want to go out for a walk.â
âSure. Iâll get your coat.â Then, she grabbed his coat for him. Since Jeremiah had always been weak, he couldnât get too cold. However, when she returned with the coat, he had already left.
He kept walking in the snow and unknowingly arrived at where Xavier was staying.
Yvette was awake at that moment as well. She wanted to leave early in the morning, so she helped Xavier get his clothes ready. âGet changed quickly. Weâre going back now. Zac and Noah are still waiting for me at home,â she said.
He answered sleepily, âSure.â
Yvette went to wash up. While she brushed her teeth, she stood on the balcony to look at the snowy view outside. At a glance, she saw the tall figure standing in the snow.
