“Okay,” Alick answered.


    As Isaac hung up the phone, a cold Look shed in his eyes.


    There was no trace of emotion in his calm face.


    Even Willie, who wasn’t as observant as Alick, noticed that Isaac was currently in a bad mood.


    Thus, he tried his best not to provoke him.


    “I’m going to check on Jaylen,” Willie said, as though he was walking on eggshells.


    Isaac just nodded and didn’t say anything


    Willie scurried away as fast as he could.


    Isaac went home alone.


    When he entered the room, he saw Joe lying in the rocking chair. He walked over and picked him up.


    As soon as he did, Joe waved his arms happily in the air. His face was as bright as the sun, looking


    very pleased that someone was holding him.


    “Mama…”


    This was the only sound that Joe knew how to make.

    “Mama…”


    Isaac sat on the sofa with Joe in his arms. Simply looking at Joe was enough to quell the emotions


    raging in his heart.


    As parents, no one could be so ruthless to leave their children alone, right?


    Cathy had been hiding abroad this entire time. Perhaps she didn’t mean to do that and had difficulties


    of her own.


    It was not that she had forgotten him.


    “Mama. Isaac gently pinched Joe’s cheek and said, “Call me daddy.”


    This made Joe giggle as he buried his head unto Isaac’s arms.


    After a while, Isaac’s neck was drenched with saliva.


    “It’s time for Joe to eat,” Glenda, who had just arrived, said.


    “Let me be the one to feed him,” Isaac insisted.


    “Okay.” Glenda handed the bowl with a delicate spoon inside it to Isaac.
