Chapter 204 Chapter 204: "Sadie, Averi is going to be alright," Alex said gently.
She gave a slight nod, her eyes brimming with unshed tears. "Alex, I really appreciate you staying. I don't know how I would do this alone." "We're friends. It's the least I can do. And to me, Averi is like my child," Alex replied.
Sadie hesitated for a moment but chose not to say anything. A brief stillness settled in the room before she returned her focus to Averi.

The idea that Averi was Sadie and Alex's child seemed unthinkable, yet Sadie's unwavering stance made him question everything. No matter what, he needed clarity.
Turning the key, he drove toward the hospital's parking area. Throughout the drive, he couldn't shake the image of Averi's delicate features and Sadie's anxious expression from his mind. His grip on the wheel tightened, his foot pressing harder on the gas as his thoughts spiraled.
Just as Kyla was about to exit the office, Samuel rushed inside. He halted upon spotting her but quickly masked his surprise.
"Miss Wade, why are you here?" "I'm looking for Noah. Do you know where he went?" Samuel hesitated slightly before responding, "Mr. Wall... he's likely in the hospital." "The hospital? Why would he go there?" Kyla's pulse quickened, an uneasiness creeping over her.
Samuel lowered his head, offering no explanation.
Noticing his reluctance, Kyla grew even more confused. She didn't press further, instead spinning on her heel and hailing a cab straight to the hospital.

You had a high fever, but everything is fine now." Averi blinked drowsily. "Mom, I feel okay. Where's that man?" Sadie tensed for a second. She knew exactly who he meant-Noah. Not wanting him entangled in the complicated situation, she replied, "He had to leave for something important. Don't worry. Just rest." Though confused, Averi nodded obediently. He nestled into his mother's arms and soon drifted back to sleep. Sadie gently laid him back down before stepping into the corridor for sfresh air. As she reached the corridor's end, she spotted Noah striding toward her.
"Why are you here?" Sadie frowned, her expression guarded.

Sadie turned to head back to the ward, but Noah caught her arm o'm firmly. "Sadie, you won't shakeoff that easily. I need to know the truth each about this child,” he said, his voice firm.
"Let go of me!" Sadie struggled to break free from his grip. "Neah, we're no longer married. You have no say in my life anymore." Just as the tension between them was at its peak, Kyla arrived at the hospital.
The moment she saw Noah and Sadie together, her temper flared om "Noah, what's going on? Is she bothering you again?" Kyla asked, her tone deceptively sweet but laced with irritation.
