Chapter 328:

Averi’s face brightened, and a smile spread across his features as he quickly set down his bowl and spoon. “Really?”

Noah simply nodded, reached out, and tousled Averi’s hair. “Finish your meal first, then we’ll go. Make sure to clear your bowl.”

Averi nodded enthusiastically, eagerly resuming his meal, his face glowing with anticipation.

Noah observed him with a complex expression.

At KFC, the scent of fried chicken enveloped them. Averi sat across from Noah, happily gripping a chicken leg, his face shiny with grease.

Noah studied the boy, and for a moment, a gentle softness crossed his face as a slight smile emerged.

He was rarely seen in such informal settings. His crisp, business-like attire stood out in the casual atmosphere of the fast-food restaurant.

“This is so good!” Averi exclaimed, holding up a half-eaten chicken leg enthusiastically.

“Take your time. No one’s going to take it from you,” Noah said, pulling out a tissue to gently wipe the grease from Averi’s mouth.

In a quiet corner of the restaurant, Jordyn’s eyes landed on the unexpected scene.

She had only come to grab an ice cream and had never imagined she’d stumble upon Noah here.

Noah was with a child?

Jordyn narrowed her eyes, studying Noah and the boy across from him. She recognized Noah, the prominent CEO of Wall Group, but the child seemed familiar too.

Acting on a hunch, Jordyn discreetly pulled out her phone, aimed it at Averi, and snapped a photo.

Once she captured the image, she swiftly opened WhatsApp, located the contact, and sent the photo along with a message. “Guess who I saw at KFC?” After sending it, Jordyn anxiously watched her phone screen, her heart pounding.

Meanwhile, Noah was oblivious to the fact that he’d been photographed. He was focused on teaching Averi how to use ketchup properly.

“Squeeze it out like this. Be careful not to get it on your clothes,” he instructed.

“Got it,” Averi replied, concentrating as he mimicked Noah’s actions, carefully squeezing ketchup onto his fries.

Watching Averi’s focused demeanor, Noah felt an unexpected warmth wash over him. Maybe bringing Averi to KFC was indeed a good idea.

Back in her apartment, Kyla stared intently at the photo on her phone. The man in the picture was a side of Noah she had never seen before.

“Impossible…” she murmured, her fingers trembling as she zoomed in on Averi’s face, which grew clearer by the second.

A cold shiver ran down her spine.

“It’s him… that bastard…” Kyla’s voice was shaky, the words barely escaping her clenched teeth.

Could it be that Noah already knew? Did he know that Averi was his son? Was that why he continued to endure Sadie’s presence, even taking the time to go to KFC with the boy?

In a sudden fury, Kyla sprang to her feet, spilling her coffee. The hot liquid splashed onto her leg, but she barely flinched.
