A Replacement Bride

Chapter 153

"You are planning to bring Noah back here? Have you talked about her with Johdy? What did he say?" Jennifer asked. Her attention was immediately diverted as soon as she heard Katherine mentioning Noah.

"He told me to go ahead and bring her back while he handles the rest." Katherine couldn't help but smile when she thought of Joaquin's expression when he told her this earlier.

She couldn't fool anyone with her smile, especially when Jennifer was an old lady who had lived for decades. Jennifer could immediately tell that Katherine and Joaquin had a great relationship when she saw Katherine's expression. That sheer happiness wasn't something she could fake.

Jennifer finally felt more at ease after seeing this. "Bring Noah back then," she sighed. "She is a pitiful child."

Katherine didn't say anything much in return as she quickly found an excuse to return to her room to change her clothes. Only then did she give Savannah a call.

'Boss," Savannah respectfully greeted after she picked up the call.

"Help me make arrangements to send Noah back to the country as soon as possible. Be sure to be attentive while making sure that the journey is safe. I don't want any accidents," Katherine instructed in a serious manner.

Hearing that, Savannah agreed quickly and went to make the necessary arrangements after hanging up the call.

As Katherine had always brooded and never forgot about what happened back then, she ended up not being particularly close to Noah. In addition to the young girl's illness, Noah had been living in the hospital and was taken care of by special doctors and nurses. Katherine had to make perfect arrangements to bring her back to the country to avoid any problems on the way.

Relying on Savannah's efficiency, Noah arrived at Hovington International Airport just after 3 days.

Katherine initially wanted to pick Noah up herself when she received the call notifying her regarding Noah's arrival, but she ended up setting off with Joaquin for the airport when the man insisted on going with her.

The airport always had a fairly large number of people who came and go everyday. There were even more visitors because it happened to be summer vacation.

When the couple arrived at the airport, Katherine glanced at her wristwatch to check the time and started walking in quickened steps.

Joaquin couldn't help laughing when he saw her anxious look. Despite saying that she didn't care about Noah, she definitely was very concerned about the child.
