Jilted Bride 219

Chapter 219

Thump... Thump.....

In the silent room, Chloe could only hear the frantic pounding of her own heart.

Noah pursed his lips, swallowing hard. "Could you, un, get me a glass of water first...

Chloe took a deep breath, her heart finally settling back into her chest. She followed Noah's gaze to his hand, then turned to the kitchen to fetch him a glass of warm water, grabbing some fever medicine as well. Take the medicine and then leave quickly, Chloe said.

The white pill and the glass of water were placed on the coffee table in front of Noah.

"So heartless!" Noah coughed and propped himself up.

If that's the case, then I won't take the medicine, Noah thought.

Seeing this, Chloe sighed. "Today is Wyatt's birthday, Elia is coming over, and I don't want her to misunderstand. If you really have nowhere else to go... you can wait until Elia leaves and come back after." Noah raised an eyebrow, realizing that Chloe didn't seem to be rushing him out anymore.

At that moment, he felt a little less miserable.

Noah quickly swallowed the pill and downed the entire glass of water in one go. "Give me another one."

Chloe, keeping her patience, took the cup.

As she turned to head back to the kitchen, Noah raised an eyebrow. "Actually... I have a way to make sure Elia doesn't misunderstand." When Chloe didn't respond, Noah said seriously, "You could let me actually be Wyatt's father. That would solve everything, wouldn't it?"

Bang!

The

cup slipped from Chloe's hand, crashing to the floor and shattering into pieces.

The shards scattered, and half the glass of warm water splashed onto Chloe's slippers.

One moment her feet had been warm, but the next they were immediately cold.

"You must really be sick if you're talking nonsense like that," Chloe said.

"Do you think I'm an idiot?" Noah's voice, when he spoke normally, was deep and magnetic, his expression solemn with no trace of a joke in it.
