This was Hannah’s fatal blow to Chuck!
“Chuck Cole…” Hannah gritted her teeth. “Serves you right! You played with my feelings, cheated my money away,
and took my daughter! Hah, the heavens won’t let you off easy. You won’t have any heirs!
“You… kicked me just now. The baby won’t make it! You killed your own child. It’s you!”
Chuck growled and lifted his pistol.
When he was about to shoot, the police siren echoed from nearby, and a bullet shot through his wrist. He yelped in
pain and fell to the ground with blood splattering.
Hannah struggled to get up and staggered a few steps away, but she slipped and fell into the rapid river…
The chaos did not last long as the police arrived soon to take control of it.
Zephyr left with Noah, escorted by bodyguards.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtNoah wore a blank face on the way back.
Zephyr was a little worried and called out “Uncle Noah” softly, but it was like Noah was possessed. His eyes stared
straight with a dazed look, and his mouth was slightly agape, his body twitching occasionally.
“Uncle Noah, don’t be like this…” Zephyr was sad.
As soon as he put a hand on Noah’s shoulder, the latter suddenly screamed in horror. It sounded like the cry of a
dying animal.
“Uncle Noah, don’t be scared!” Zephyr comforted him quickly. “It’s me, I’m Zephyr! I’ll stay with you…”
Noah screamed and cried heartbrokenly.
“Why? Why?”
“Uncle Noah…”
“Why do this to me!?”
Noah punched his own chest.
What Zephyr could do now was to hold Noah’s hands as much as he could to prevent the man from hurting himself.
“Zephyr…” Noah bawled. “A-Am I really foolish?”
Zephyr bit his lips, unable to speak.
“I-I know I’m stupid… but I have a heart! I’m a fool, but I have a heart too!
“Why must she hurt my heart!?”
Zephyr hugged Noah tightly as he felt miserable. He remembered his uncle hugging him this way too and taking
him to the square to feed the pigeons when he was in a bad mood as a child back then.
Now that he hugged his uncle, he suddenly felt that he had gone thin and old and was weak and pitiful.
“Uncle Noah, everything’s over.” He patted Noah’s back. “I promise that no one will hurt you anymore!”

Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmChuck was caught and sentenced to prison with multiple crimes like fraud and money laundering. Hannah survived
the fall but lost her baby. She was affected psychologically and could only be sent to a mental rehabilitation center.
The Bakers’ lawyer team worked swiftly to settle the divorce between Noah and Hannah, with the latter not getting
a single cent.
Ava had been hiding in Chuck’s apartment all this while, focusing on studying and memorizing her script, so she had
no idea what had happened outside. She just knew that Chuck had not been back for a while, but she was happy to
be left alone.
She felt rather guilty toward Hannah, and there were several times she wanted to call her but gave up, knowing
that her mother would never forgive her for what she had done.
Even the fool, Noah, who usually showed concern for her did not contact her.
Things felt unusual!
However, Ava was obsessed with becoming an award-winning actress and did not contact anyone aside from Trinity.
She was practicing her expressions in front of the mirror that day when she suddenly received Trinity’s call.
“Ms. Baker? The press release for the new film is tomorrow. There’ll be a lot of press there. Be punctual. Don’t be
late!”
