Chapter 132 What He’s Willing to Do

Xavier was determined to use Isabella to treat Noah, but Sander was equally set on stopping time, with Sander in the picture, there was no chance Xavier would get anywhere near her- what it took.

For a while now. Sander had known Xavier was searching for Aletta. Ever since Isabella returne country, Xavier’s focus had shifted toward the therapy center.

Unlike Xavier, whose arrogance often blinded him, Sander had a keen eye for picking up any tr to her. In that regard, he was already steps ahead.

“So she’s Aletta… the one you’ve been protecting all this time?” Rachel’s voice was quiet but delibe

“You’ve known that for a while now. Don’t ask questions you shouldn’t.” Sander’s reply was measu chill lingered beneath his words–a quiet kind of pressure.

“I can tell she truly cares about Noah. If his condition worsens because of delays, she won’t take it w doing this, are you really protecting her, or are you pushing her into something worse?”

Rachel was speaking more than she usually did. Sander shot her a look that made it clear she’d overstepped.

“That’s enough.”

“I’m just worried about you. It’s obvious Isabella and Xavier have history. I’m afraid no matter how m you do for her, she might not even see it.”

efore Rachel could finish, Sander stood abruptly. His tall frame seemed to fill the space, an intimidati presence that silenced her.

“That’s not your concern. Just do what we agreed and keep your promise.”

With that, he grabbed his coat and headed for the door. Ever since he’d asked Rachel to pretend to be Aletta, the easy understanding they once shared in this apartment had vanished. He shouldn’t have come today,

“If anything happens to me… promise you’ll look after Zoe.”

Her words were soft, just loud enough to reach him as his hand touched the doorknob.

The door closed firmly behind him, leaving the apartment in heavy silence.

Chapter 132 What He’s Willing to Do

Isabella watched Xavier anxiously, but he showed no intention of speaking to her. The little boy in his arms, however, seemed absolutely thrilled.

From the earlier exchange between Xavier and Isabella, Skyler had grown even more certain there was serious tension between them.

He still didn’t fully understand what could make Mommy hide the fact he had such a cool dad… but no matter how bad things were, Dad had been pretty heroic dealing with that other guy today!

He figured Dad must have seen the report he’d sent. Otherwise, how would he have recognized him and taken him away from that creep?

The urge to speak up was almost overwhelming. Truth was on their side–he, Jason, and Lydia all voted fo Mom and Dad to work things out! Families should be together, not split apart.

Too bad he was stuck pretending to be Jason, who couldn’t talk. Poor Jason really had it rough…

Isabella had no clue what was running through Skyler’s mind. Seeing her son cling to Xavier so contentedly made her feel like she was sitting on pins and needles–restless and uneasy.

Just before the car pulled into the driveway, Xavier finally moved. He took out his phone, made a call, and uttered only one sentence, “I want everyone here tomorrow morning.

Then he hung up.

Isabella’s stomach dropped. What was he planning? Was he going to do something to her child? Earlier, she’d almost believed he seemed calmer, that he wouldn’t harm a kid…

“Xavier… whatever this is, we can talk about it.”

But the car was already entering the garage. The next moment, Xavier stepped out, still holding the boy. Isabella rushed after him.

The house staff, hearing the commotion, hurried to the foyer to greet them–only to freeze at the sight of Xavier walking in with a boy who looked about five.

“Mr. Moore…?”

Before anyone could react, Xavier set the child down and handed him gently to the nearest maid.

“Get him cleaned up, set up a comfortable room, and put him to bed.”
