Chapter 152

"What's wrong?" Joaquin rushed out of the bathroom when he heard the sound. He only had a bath towel on him, exposing the strong muscles of his upper body as well as the particularly eye-catching deep and shallow wounds.

Katherine only remembered after seeing him that they had just married yesterday and were now officially husband and wife.

Looking somewhat uncomfortable, she only spoke up after a while, "Joaquin, we need to talk."

"What do you want to say to me?" Since last night, he had noticed that something was off with her.

He then took a bathrobe and draped it over his body before he walked over and sat beside the bed, looking at her with serious eyes.

She stayed quiet for a minute before starting. "At the very beginning, our marriage was only a form of deal for us to each get what we need. However, now that we have had a wedding, we are already husband and wife in a legal sense. So, I think there are some things that I need to confess to you."

"What is it?" For some reason, he had a bad feeling about this.

He had envisioned countless possibilities, such as her having some kind of illness or that she actually preferred women.

"Actually, I have a child. She is four years old but has been staying in Fontan for treatment due to her poor health. She has severe autism and doesn't get close to anyone. The only person other than me that can communicate with her is her psychologist." She initially thought it would be hard to talk about this, but after she finished speaking, she realized it was not as difficult as she thought it would be.

She had never mentioned Noah to anyone. Except for her grandmother, even the people closest to her had no idea that Noah was actually her child.

"Huh?" He was a little surprised at how things turned out differently from what he had imagined. "That's it? Is there anything else?"

"That is it." She shook her head.
