Right Person, Wrong Time

Chapter 197 Leave

As Nicole didn’t bring much with her, her belongings didn’t even fill up a suitcase.

Baffled by the sudden move, Hayden looked questioningly over at his mother before shifting his gaze to Colton, asking, “Mom, Mr. Handsome, why are we leaving? I like it here.”

At that, Nicole ruffled his hair and explained, “We are only meant to stay here for a short while, and now, it’s time for us to go home.”

A discontented Hayden pouted with a hint of pity in his eyes. “But I like Mr. Handsome. I don’t want to leave…”

Colton’s heart softened for some reason at Hayden’s adorable, pleading look, and he comforted the little one with hoarseness in his voice. “If you’d like, Hayden, you can come and play whenever you want.”

Happiness instantly replaced the glum on Hayden’s face. “Really?” he asked, looking up at Colton, who nodded. “Really.”
