My Captain Husband novel Chapter 13

Noel didn't care what Emma said. He still looked straight at Yvonne who was lowering her head and suddenly felt angry. Did this woman only know to be a coward?

It was very late now. He had to go back to the base before seven o'clock, but this woman had given him a hard time.

He could only blame it on her father. If her father hadn't come, she would have left with him by now.

"Yvonne, I have to leave now. Wait for me until I come back." After saying that, Noel left directly. He would deal with all the things that worried her first, and then helped her pack up all the things and took her away. It was not up to her whether she wanted to leave or not.

Watching him leave, Yvonne suddenly felt that she had lost something. She had to admit that she had already had a thing for this man after seeing him for only a few times. But today, her father's appearance reminded her again not to be greedy for anything that didn't belong to her.

Emma sighed, went to get the ice and asked her to sit down. "Apply it on your face, or it will be swollen tomorrow. I wonder if he is really your father. How could he do that? If—" Emma got so furious that she couldn't stop talking about what just happened, but when she saw Yvonne's gloomy face, she twitched her mouth awkwardly and scratched her long hair. "Yvonne, honey, I'm sorry. I didn't mean it."

Yvonne tried to force a smile and said to her in a low voice, "it's okay." It was true. If Yvonne didn't look like her father, Emma would doubt if she was really his daughter. What kind of father would do that to his own daughter?

"Mommy, don't worry. I'm here for you!" Jacob was slowly blowing on Yvonne's face to try to ease her pain. He was afraid that if he blew too hard, he would hurt his mommy.

Yvonne touched her son's little face and said, "good boy, Mommy doesn't hurt." Holding Jacob in her arms, she sat down and said, "Emma, I want to go back with Jacob in a few days. The expense here is too high. We can't afford that."

"But I can—" Seeing the way Yvonne looked at her, Emma withdrew her words. She knew Yvonne well. Although she didn't have a diploma, she had her own pride.

"When are you leaving?"

"Maybe these days. I haven't rented out the house in the countryside. I'll call Margaret later and tell her that I'll go back in these days." Margaret was a kind old lady living in Yvonne's house in the countryside.

Jacob didn't say a word and just stayed in his mommy's arms. He didn't want to go back. He wanted his dad and mom to be together, but now since his mother wanted to leave, of course he would leave with her.

Emma called for takeout, for no one was in the mood to cook now.

Yvonne still had work to finish, so she let Jacob play for a while himself. She then went to continue her work.

Jacob was also in a bad mood. He nodded gloomily and climbed onto the bed to play with his mother's phone.

On the way back to the army, Noel was literally racing. He couldn't stop thinking about Yvonne, the silly woman.

Jacob looked back at his mother who was in a daze in front of the computer and didn't type anything at all. He then turned to look at his mother's phone and frowned. He didn't have his father's phone number.

The more Noel thought about it, the angrier he became. He took out his phone and dialed the number his friend had given him.

Jacob saw his mother's mobile phone vibrate and then looked at his mother who was still in a daze. He answered the phone himself, "hello..."

Noel was about to say something, but when he heard his son's voice, he calmed himself down.

"Jacob, where is Mommy?"

Jacob looked back at his mother again and sneaked into the quilt. "Mommy is in a daze."

'In a daze?' Noel slowed down the car and frowned. He suddenly realized what she was thinking.
