Chapter 0292
“Are you okay, baby?” -ásk Noah as we have our dinner.
Rowan usually joins us for dinner, but not today. There was a business proposal he was
going through. Not that he needs it, given that he has already accomplished so much for
the company, but the
opportunity was too great to pass up.
He was on the verge of acquiring two of the top business companies in Paris. The merger,
according to him, would take their company to new levels. That merger would see the
Wood’s company rise to the top
three most influential and successful companies in the world.
“Nothing, Mom, just thinking of how to deal with Sierra.” Noah mumbles, pushing his food
around on the
plate.
The matter has him stressed; it’s clear to see. I just don’t know how to help him. I don’t
want to get
involved unless maybe Sierra crosses a limit, though my heart doubts she would. I also

learn to be independent. I don’t want him to always rely on me or his father to solve his
problems for him.
“Have you come up with anything so far?” I ask, pushing my empty plate.
“Not really,” he sighs in defeat. “I guess I’ll just have to avoid her as much as I can. It
would be so much
easier if, by some miracle, she got transferred to another class.”
“I could always ask the principal to transfer you,” I suggest.
I mean, if this bothered him this much, it’s the least I could do. I wanted Noah to focus on
his studies. Not to spend most of time trying to avoid a girl that seemed hell bent on
attaching herself to him like an octopus.
I chuckle internally at that. Knowing very well that I couldn’t blame. There was just
something about these Wood men. Rowan completely hypnotized me when I was a kid. I
think the same thing was happening to Sierra.
“No!” His voice is firm as he all but screams the words. “I don’t want to leave my friends.
Gunner is also in my class. I don’t want to be separated from him.”
I nod my head in understanding. “Okay”
When I learned about Gunner, I was stunned. I’ve yet to meet the boy, but I was shocked
that Calvin’s son was best friends with my son. Calvin and Rowan despised each other in
high school. It’s really a twist of fate that their sons ended up being the best of friends.
He doesn’t call me mommy as much as he did when he was younger, but every time he
does, it just melts my heart into a complete mush.
Seconds later, Teresa shows up and clears the table. I try to help, but the stubborn woman
refuses.
“I’m going to sleep,” Noah informs me.
“Okay, my love… I’ll be there in a few, once I’m done checking on your sister.”
He yawns and then nods his head before going upstairs. After making sure everything is
okay and that
Teresa doesn’t need help, I head on up.
I check on Iris only to find her soundly asleep. I’d feed her right before dinner, and she fell
asleep
immediately. Quietly, I leave her room and head over to Noah’s.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“Noah?” I call, but don’t get an answer.
I was sprawled on top of the covers, completely out. I guess Sierra’s antics not only pissed
him off, but
also drained him.
Walking slowly further into his room, I get him under the covers. Once he is settled, I cover
him with his Avenger’s blanket.
He was a superhero fan, but then again, which boy his age isn’t?
I leave his room after k*ssing his forehead and making sure he’s well tucked in.
The house is so damn quiet now. While Teresa was finishing up before heading to her
quarters, I decided to take a bath. The issue of Emma was still on my mind. I was still
unable to decide what to do about it.
I thought the shower would clear my head, but it was in vain. By the time I’m done, I’m
still as confused as I was after Travis begged me for help.
I put on my sleeping gown, then my robe. Since Rowan wasn’t here yet, I decide to check
whether he was almost done with work.
“I’ll be leaving now, Ava,” Teresa tells me as I pass by the kitchen.
