Chapter 733


    Compared to Jared’s emotional turmoil, Nocturne was the epitome of calm. This didn''t sit well with


    Jared.


    At dinner, Jared repeatedly asked Nocturne if he genuinely considered him as his father, or if there had


    been a better father figure in his life over the past four years.


    Agnes couldn''t stand it anymore, saying, “Jared, are you being childish?”


    Jared whispered into Agnes’ ear, “Don’t you think our son is a bit too calm? I can''t tell if he''s happy or


    not.”


    Agnes rolled her eyes at Jared, "Your son inherited that trait from you.”


    Jared raised an eyebrow. Turning to Nocturne, who was eating spaghetti, he asked,"Noc, are you


    happy today?”


    “I am very happy.” Nocturne replied calmly.


    “Is that your way showing your happiness?”


    Nocturne slightly smiled, his tone serious, "Yes, dad. This is how I look when I''m happy.”


    Jared was worried; his son was too good at hiding his emotions. His son was even better at it than


    himself. That attitude was not one of a four-year-old. It was as if he’d time-traveled from a different era.


    After a long stay at the nursing home, once Agnes’ grandmother had gone to bed, they left with


    Nocturne, who was sound asleep.


    Jared held the little guy in his arms, not wanting to put him down, even when it was time to drive home.


    He asked Agnes to drive, while he sat in the passenger seat, holding Nocturne.


    He couldn''t take his eyes off the little guy. The more he looked at this little guy, the more he love him.


    Agnesughed,"I''ve never seen you like this, not even when you first found out that Nocturne was your


    son.”


    At this, Jared was angry. He childishly rolled his eyes at Agnes, saying,"How would you know how I


    felt? I was so ecstatic; I could have raised the roof.”


    Jared seemed like apletely different person.


    This is the property of N?-velDrama.Org.


    Agnesughed,"Okay, stop staring. He''s not going anywhere.”


    Jared looked at the little guy in his arms,"I made him, you know. He might be the best thing I''ve ever


    done in my life. Look at his nose, mouth, he looks just like me. Those eyes are identical to yours, and


    they are beautiful, by the way. And his skin, it''s softer than a baby girl’s. Most importantly, he has a


    genius brain. Which four-year-old boy can bring down apany''s server in a matter of minutes? My


    son, that''s who.”


    Jared was brimming with pride,pletely ignoring the damage that server crash had caused the


    Seeing Jared so excited, Agnes yed along,"Yes, your son is amazing. But how does it feel to know


    your IQ is lower than a four-year-old''s?”


    “That''s your IQ, not mine.” Jared replied, smugly.


    Agnes was speechless. He was acting like a fool. But seeing Jared''s loving gaze, Agnes felt both


    happiness and a twinge of sadness. If they hadn''t left so hastily four years ago and had sought out the


    truth instead, they wouldn''t have been apart for so long.


    Agnes knew how much Jared regretted missing out on their son''s growth, so Agnes took Jared''s hand,


    saying to him, "Jared, let''s have another child. Let''s give Noc a younger sister, and you’ll get a little


    sweetheart.”
