Chapter 283 Another Paternity Test Report
“He’s back?” Sadie asked, her voice laced with surprise.
“Yes, Mrs. Wall. Mr. Wall returned late last night. He must have seen you asleep in the study and carried you back to your
room,” Breck explained.
Sadie felt a rush of warm comfort at the realization that it had been Noah, after all.
“Mr. Wall also mentioned that he would be back on time this evening to have dinner with you and Averi,” Breck added.
Sadie was even more taken aback by this, and her fingers instinctively tightened around her coffee mug.
Noah was coming back for dinner?
Confusion appeared at the back of her mind. Wasn’t Kyla in Slimron? Noah should be spending his time with her, shouldn’t he? Why would he come back?
Sadie bit her lower lip, her emotions going all over the place.
“I see,” she muttered somewhat absentmindedly.
Downstairs, Averi’s cheerful laughter rang out along with the gentle loving coos from Laura.
The sound did nothing to ease the confusion in Sadie’s heart, though.
“Mommy!” Averie exclaimed as he broke free from Laura’s embrace and came hurtling toward Sadie.
“Good morning, sweetheart.” Sadie mustered a smile and ruffled her son’s hair.
After breakfast, Sadie drove to her studio. Her mind was still a tangled mess, even during the drive.
Noah’s actions left her lost and confused.
Just what on earth was that man thinking?
As soon as she settled in behind her desk, Sadie immediately buried herself in work, just to escape her burgeoning thoughts.
Sunlight streamed through the floor–to–ceiling windows and cast a warm glow on the antique mahogany furniture of Wall Manor. A subtle hint of sandalwood permeated the air.
Kyla sat gracefully on the sofa in her cream–colored pantsuit, a cup of coffee in her hand as she engaged in pleasant conversation with Isabel.
“You’ve been looking much better recently, Isabel. The tonics are doing wonders on you,” Kyla remarked softly.
Isabel patted Kyla’s hand, her eyes filled with affection. “You’re always so considerate. You know exactly what I like. If only

Noah were as attentive as you. I’ve been hearing a lot of rumors these past few days. How could Noah send you to Slimron?”
Kyla smiled slightly, but her mind was already making devious calculations.
Isabel hadn’t said a single word when she was practically banished to Slimron, yet here she was, looking all worried and
concerned.
“Noah is busy with work. He’s doing it for the sake of the Wall family, so I hope you can spare him some understanding.”
“That boy works too hard,” Isabel said with a sigh. “I was just about to go out, by the way. Why don’t you keep me
company, Kyla?”
“Oh?” Kyla put her cup down. “Where are you going?”
Isabel hesitated for a moment before saying, “The paternity test results for Noah and that child are out. I’m planning to go
and get the report.”
“Paternity test?” Kyla was visibly taken aback, and a keen sense of foreboding rose in her heart. Still, she maintained her
composure. “You haven’t fully recovered yet, Isabel. Why don’t I go and get it for you?”
Isabel thought about it for a moment. She saw no harm in Kyla’s offer; if anything, it made sense. “All right, if you’re sure it’s not too much trouble. Be careful at the hospital, Kyla. It’s usually crowded this time of the day.”
“Don’t worry, Isabel. I’ll be careful,”
Kyla got the address from Isabel, her suspicious now running amok.
Before she left, Isabel retrieved a thermos from the kitchen. “I made this soup for Noah. Can you swing by the company and give it to him on your way?”
