Chapter 1345

"Stop it, Noe," Pearl said after coming back to her senses.

She patted her son's buttocks and continued.

"You should stop calling other people your father."

She did not expect that her son would call Tanner "Daddy."

Even though Tanner was truly his father, she did not want Tanner to know about it.She worried that
Tanner might harm her son if he found out he was the kid’s father.

The boy suddenly cried, "Noa wants Daddy!"

Pearl was stunned.

She did not know what she should do when her son began to cry.

When she thought about it, she was indeed not considered a competent mother in the past two years.

Every time her son cried, her mother would help her to calm him down.

Just when she did not know what to do, a figure approached her and took the kid away from her arms.

A light chuckle wafted into her ears as the man said, "Do you know that a man shouldn’t cry?"

Noah stopped crying and looked at him with teary eyes.

"Daddy."

Tanner held him in his arms and stroked his head.

"Yes, I’m here."



When Noah stopped crying, Pearl was so shocked that she froze.

In the living room...

Noah refused to let Tanner go, and Tanner had been holding him.

Antonio and Kamala were sitting in front of him.

Both of them had strange expressions on their faces, and the atmosphere was awkward.

Kamala rose to her feet and smiled at Noah.

"Noah, come.Granny will carry you."

Noah shook his head, hugged Tanner’s neck tightly, and said, "I want Daddy."

Kamala retracted her arms awkwardly.She did not know what she should feel right now.

Noah had never seen his father before ever since he was born, yet he called Tanner "Daddy" as soon
as he saw him.

Antonio cleared his throat and said in a serious voice, "Tanner, I’m sure you know why Pearl left you
that year.It has been so long, and Pearl has already gotten over it.Her mother and I aren’t going to
poke our noses into the affair between you and Pearl.However, we won't help you either.It’s up to Pearl
if she wants t o forgive you or not."

Tanner lowered his head and said, "I know.I’m not asking for anything.I just hope I can do everything I
can to make it up to her."

"Hmph, make it up to her?"

Kamala’s face turned grim.



"If you had known this, why would you have done it in the first place? Pear] has suffered so much
because of you.After that incident, I sent her overseas so that she could forget everything, yet you cast
her back in a bad light with just a few words."

Kamala became even more agitated as she continued.

"If you can’t accept her, why do you still want to hurt her? If you didn’t want to marry her, you could’ve
rejected it when we proposed the marriage.Not only did you cheat on her, but you also treated her with
contempt."

Antonio went forward and asked her to calm down.

Kamala harrumphed and turned her head sideways.

Tanner was aware of the terrible things he had done to Pearl.He only found out that she was not as
"expressionless" as he thought her to be after reading her diary.

She was not heartless.She was not cold.She just did not dare to show her true heart.She might look
indifferent on the surface when he hurled those hurtful words and criticisms at her, but i n reality, her
heart was already riddled with holes.

Therefore, he didn’t dare to ask her for forgiveness.

However...He looked at the boy in his arms and opened his tightly pressed lips.

"I’m his father, right?"

Antonio and Kamala did not say anything, but the answer was pretty apparent.

Half a month later...



Lisa was discharged from the hospital, and this was also the first time Daisie went to Lisa’s house.

Lisa was staying in an old apartment.

The apartment had two rooms, a living room, and a standalone kitchen.

There was a lot of stuff piled here and there i n the apartment, making the whole room very packed and
small.
