As Noah had expected, Xavier was jealous. So, he purposely held out his fingers and counted, "One… two… three… I think there are at least a dozen of them, and they are all kind of good-looking."
Xavier was surprised after hearing that. In the years he'd been married to Yvette, there hadn't been any men around her at all. He couldn't believe there would be more than a dozen men courting her at that moment.
"And? Did she accept any of them?"
Noah lay back on the bed and patted his belly, pretending to be mysterious on purpose. "I don't know. It's not like I'm always by her side."
Xavier stood up. "Have a good rest."
Seeing that, Noah hurriedly grabbed his hand. When he touched Xavier's slender fingers, he finally felt what it was like to hold his father's hand for the first time.
"Mister, where are you going?"
Xavier didn't answer the question. Instead, he asked, "What's up?"
Noah thought he had messed with Xavier enough, and he couldn't let the latter misunderstand the situation. So, he said, "Do you know that I've seen you before? It was on the news. Whenever Mom saw you appear on the television, she would be in a daze."
When Xavier heard that, he instantly felt complicated. "Get some sleep now."
"Sure." Then, Noah obediently went to bed.
When Xavier left the room, he asked the bodyguard what time it was. The bodyguard answered, "It's 9:00 pm now."
It was already nine at night, and Yvette still hadn't returned yet. Xavier didn't leave the hospital. Instead, he slept in Yvette's room in the hospital.
…
Meanwhile, Yvette and Aaron talked about the issues with the music. She kept a mental note and was prepared to fix it when she returned.
"Why aren't Noah and Zac with you? How are they?"
After hearing that question, she briefly told him about how Noah was at the hospital and Zachary was staying with a friend.
