After I left Alpha father and son went crazy with regret

Chapter 127

Alex clung to Nora, his small arms wrapped tightly around her neck, inhaling the familiar scent that reminded him of warmth and security. He had missed this–being held by her, feeling her gentle touch, and knowing she was right there, just like before. The thought of letting go made his chest tighten, so he held on a little longer.

He looked to Arnold, who was standing by, and asked, “Daddy, I want to eat here with Mommy, can we pack up and come back here to eat?”

Arnold, watching the scene unfold, didn’t interfere. He observed how naturally Alex sought comfort in Nora, and with a calm nod, he made the arrangements.

“Pack the meals to go,” he instructed the staff.

The hospital room was soon filled with the aroma of freshly delivered dishes. The table was

carefully set, and Alex, unable to contain his excitement, pulled Nora to sit beside him. As they ate,

their conversation drifted to everyday things–his school, her work, the little things he had missed sharing with her.

“Mom, when will you be done with work?” Alex asked between bites, his voice tinged with longing.

“You’re always busy now…”

Nora’s hand paused slightly as she placed her chopsticks down. She looked at him with a gentle,

almost apologetic smile. “I’ll only get busier in the future, sweetheart.”
