"Noah, dinner is ready. Why don't you stay and have dinner with your mother before you go?" She took a few steps after him.
But Noah didn't stop. He didn't even look back, leaving without a word.
Kyla stood frozen in place, the smile on her face slowly fading.
Her hands balled into fists, her nails digging into her palms.

Kyla lowered her gaze. She gently patted Isabel's back as she said, "Please calm down. Maybe Noah is just acting on impulse. Once he cools down, he'll understand your good intentions." She paused for a moment, then added, "You're the closest person to him after all." Isabel's anger gradually subsided. She reached out and took Kyla's hands. “Kyla, you're so understanding, unlike that cursed woman, Sadie, who's always trying to drive a wedge betweenand my son!"
Noah strode out of the villa with a had determined pace. Samuel, who had been lingering, by the door, quickly followed. He opened his mouth to speak several times, each attempt faltering before words could form. Finally, gathering his courage, he managed to break the silence. "Mr. Wall..." Noah paused, turning slightly, his intense gaze sharp with impatience. “Yes, what is it?"
Gathering himself, Samuel continued, "There's been a report from n the m person watching Miss Hudson. He reported... he reported that Averi is facing scomplications." "What kind of complications?" Noah's voice was stern, demanding clarity.
