Chapter 583 Is She More Important Than Mommy?
"I'm sorry, it’s my fault," Noah apologized after calming down and felt guilty smacking Thomas in the butt.
Despite the fact that Noah had previously reprimanded Thomas for his prankster manners, things were different tonight.
Mackenzie's last look at him also left Noah feeling broken.
"I'll ask Albert to pick up Colt."
Since Noah was hesitant to elaborate, Madeline decided against pressing him to do so.
Unaware of what had happened at the Quincy residence, she was reluctant to leave Colton there by himself.
"You can't do this to me, my love," Noah argued back.He had a hunch that Madeline would take the chance to leave him for good by taking Colton back from him.
However, Madeline, who was completely clueless, was shocked by Noah's refusal.
"It’s late.l bring Colt to visit you tomorrow,"
Noah added before abruptly hanging up the phone before Madeline could respond.
Taken aback by Noah abruptly hanging up the phone, Madeline stared blankly at her two children who were fast asleep before sending a message to Colton.
"Colt, do you want to return to Mommy's side?"
While all was going on, Colton, sleep deprived at the Quincy home, lay on his bed looking at the ceiling.
When Colton's phone rang, he got up quickly to check it and smiled when he saw it was from his mom.
However, his grin quickly changed into a frown once he read the message.
Colton longed to see his mom and hang out with Thomas and the gang, but leaving would destroy any hope of reconciliation between his parents.
Besides, if they were to move back to Uranica, what should he do - go to Uranica with them or stay with his father? This was all too much for a five-year-old like him.
Colton blamed his father, Noah, for all that had happened.
Thomas would not have been beaten, and Colton would not have had to worry about the situation, if Noah had been upfront about his relationships with other women.
Slowly but surely, Colton found himself developing a sense of hatred toward Noah.
Suddenly, there was a knock on the door.
Colton looked aside and pretended not to hear it, but Noah persisted in knocking on the door for a few more minutes.
He anticipated that Colton would be too upset over what had happened tonight to sleep.
Eventually, Colton felt bad as he could imagine that Noah’s hand must have turned red after knocking on the door for so long.
He hesitantly got out of his bed and opened the door.
Noah’s heart sank upon seeing his son’s hateful eyes toward him.
He walked into Colton’s room and pulled him over to ask, "What did you all see in the bar?"
After pondering for a long while, Noah managed to connect the dots between the children’s sudden arrival at midnight, Thomas’s outrage against him, and the incident in the bar.
Colton stared blankly at him and instead of answering his question, Colton asked, "Why did you bring that woman back?"
If it was not for Colton’s upbringing, he would have punched and kicked Noah the way Thomas did.
