The Officer's Runaway Wife & Secret Son novel Chapter 253

Dr. Warren was shocked.

"Your son? You're married? Since when? I never heard anything about it!"

It was too sudden! The quiet, reserved Noah Carter had a son old enough to walk and talk without anyone knowing?

"It's been a few years," Noah replied calmly, lying without batting an eye. "My wife and the boy have been living down south. She prefers a quiet life and didn't want a spectacle, so we didn't hold a wedding or notify everyone."

Dr. Warren's gaze fell on Felix again.

Since it was Noah's son, it didn't matter who his eyes resembled—he probably just took after his mother.

"What's his name?" Recovering from his shock, Warren tried to be friendly with the child.

Noah turned his head and spoke softly to the little boy resting on his shoulder. "Son, say hello."

Felix was a smart child with an uncanny sensitivity to situations.

He lay on Noah's shoulder, feeling the arms around him holding him tighter than usual.

Uncle Noah had never called him "Son" before. Although he didn't know the exact reason, he knew Noah was protecting him.

And Mom had said he had to listen to Uncle Noah when they were outside.

If Noah said he was his son, then he was his son right now.

The little boy wrapped his arms around Noah's neck, buried his face in the crook of his neck, exposing only one ear, and whispered, "Hello, sir."

The voice was so small it was barely audible.

Seeing the child was shy, Dr. Warren didn't press further. He laughed heartily. "Alright, good lad. He seems very well-behaved. Bring the wife and kid over to the house sometime when you're free."

"Definitely," Noah nodded.

Once Dr. Warren and his family had walked away with the dog, Noah carried the child quickly across the boardwalk.

"Dad... Noah?"

Felix whispered, catching himself. "Does telling lies make your nose grow long?"

Uncle Noah had just lied. And he was really good at it.
