Chapter 633
Agnes felt totally defeated facing Ryder.

“My mom told me I don’t have a dad.”
“That’s because your mom didn’t tell you the truth. Every child has a father and a mother.”
“I know that, but I thought you guys are divorced.”

The room fell into silence again.

Nocturne stood up from the sofa, “Mom, you’re back.”
Nocturne glanced at Jared, said nothing, and didn’t ask any questions.
Jared also stood up, “Nocturne can’t go with you.”
“Jared, I don’t want to argue with you in front of our child. You said that if I came back with you to the Whitfield
family, there would be a resolution. I came back, hoping you’ll keep your promise.”
