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…”
