Revenge Of The Jilted Bride (Ophelia) novel Chapter 218

Chapter 218 

The living room was impeccably clean, with snacks and books neatly arranged. Noah had done a thorough job 

Chloe had thought Noah’s obsessive compulsive tendencies might have been cured by his amnesia

Dinner’s ready,she said in her usual calm, emotionless tone

Mommy, let’s kick Uncle Noah out today. How about we send him packing after he’s had his fill?Wyatt climbed onto a chair, looking at Chloe with earnest eyes

Chloe paused, glancing at Noah. Did he do something to offend Wyatt? she wondered

Although it annoyed her when Wyatt sided with Noah, this…. 

Right now?Chloe asked, hesitating

Yeah.Wyatt nodded seriously as if it were the most logical thing in the world

Hey! Boy! That’s just too much. At least let me finish my meal first!Noah exclaimed

Fine, you can eat first, but then you have to leave,Wyatt replied, giving Noah a quick, deliberate wink 

Noah said nothing, instead diving into his food with unrestrained enthusiasm

Throughout the meal, Chloe couldn’t taste a thing. Her appetite was gone, leaving her feeling hollow

I’ll wash the dishes for you before I go, Noah offered

When he said that, Chloe felt a sinking sensation in her chest

No. 

, you don’tyou can just go. I can handle it myself,” Chloe said, though her words seemed directed more at herself

After all, she had been managing everything on her own for years

I’ll do it.Noah insisted, taking the plate from her hands

Chloe stood there, expressionless, watching as Noah moved around in the kitchen

Her deep blue eyes misted over. It had only been ten minutes, yet it felt longer than a century

Guess I’ll head out then,” Noah said, wiping his slender fingers with a napkin

The callouses on his fingertips and palms were faint but unmistakable

Chloe could still picture the way he looked holding a gun

Go,Chloe said, turning her head away to avoid looking at him any longer

After speaking, she walked straight into her bedroom without a backward glance

Noah quickly crouched down beside Wyatt. Wyatt, are you sure this will work? Chloe doesn’t seem to care whether I go or 

not 

– 

Wyatt puffed out his chubby cheeks. Trust me. Unless you’ve got a better idea?” 

He’s right, Noah thought, clenching his jaw as he made up his mind

He opened the door and left

Inside, Chloe heard the sound of the door closing Her heart sank

“He really leftI was the one who drove him away. I pushed him away again, Chloe thought, sitting alone to process the weight of what had just happened 

From outside the room, Wyatt knocked twice on the door

Mommy, let’s have a talk,Wyatt said, his cute voice filtering through the door with an unexpectedly gentlemanly tone

Chloe composed herself, walked to the door, and opened it. She crouched down to look directly into Wyatt’s plump little 

ce, which carried an oddly mature expression for his age

Talk about what?Chloe asked

Your marriage prospects, of course,Wyatt said

Chloe raised an eyebrow. Hearing such a statement from a fiveyearold was nothing short of jarring

Wyatt’s tone is so much like a meddling elder. Who’s been teaching him this stuff?Chloe thought

Noah was the first person who came to mind. His influence on Wyatt was undeniable

Mommy, I’m not a threeyearold anymore. I want to talk about my dad,” Wyatt said, his words landing like a heavy blow on Chloe’s heart

Wyatt took her hand, speaking with the solemnity of someone far older than his years. I know that for me to be born, there must have been a dad in the picture

“I get it. You and Daddy held hands, kissed, and slept together. That’s how I came into the world, right?” 

Damn Noah. Did he teach him this?’ Chloe thought, frustration bubbling up

It doesn’t matter what kind of person my dad is. What matters is you, Mommy. You’ve worked so hard raising me all on your own. Don’t you think it’s time you found a husband?Wyatt asked earnestly

What did you say?Chloe furrowed her brows deeper

When did Wyatt start understanding these topics? Chloe thought

What on earth has Noah been teaching Wyatt? Damn it!Chloe cursed inwardly

Listen to me first. I think Uncle NoahWyatt started

Don’t think about it. No thinking like that,” Chloe interrupted, not wanting to hear Wyatt say the words out loud

Lately, Wyatt had been spending so much time with Noah

Chloe knew exactly what Wyatt was thinking

I have to say it. Mommy, if you find a husband, just don’t pick someone like Uncle Noah. He’s just too untrustworthy You should look for someone like Ken Wyatt continued

Chloe froze for a moment

Is this what you wanted to tell me? You don’t like Uncle Noah? Chloe cleared her throat

Oh my God, what am I even asking? Chloe thought, instantly regretting the question

She quickly pressed her lips together, trying to retract it

But Wyatt had already begun to think deeply. I don’t like him because he said he likes you and wants to be my dad. But I don’t agree with that. I want to think about your happiness” 

What?Chloe’s heart skipped a beat, as though it might leap out of her chest

Uncle Noah said he likes you and wants to be my dad, but I don’t think you like him, so I’m thinking about your happiness, Wyatt repeated

ering Chloe silent, Wyatt tilted his head, his thick brows knitting together

Did I misunderstand? Mommy, do you actually like Uncle Noah?he guessed

Does Mommy like Uncle Noah? Adult emotions are so complicated. Wyatt thought 

I don’t! Stop saying nonsense.” Chloe quickly replied

Okay,” Wyant said

The entire night, Chloe tossed and turned, unable to sleep, the words Wyatt had said echoing in her mind
