Chapter 360 How Many Children Do You Have in Total?
Nora's eyes were red, and her voice trembled as she spoke.
She was very scared, afraid of hearing an answer she couldn't accept.
But Nora also knew she couldn't avoid it.
Isaac said, "I've found Soren. Let's go home first, and I'll explain everything to you slowly once we're back."
These things couldn't be explained in just a few words; it would take time to explain once they got back.
Moreover, he hadn't figured out how to tell Nora about the Hansen family yet.
"Isaac, how long are you going to keep lying to me? Are you going to trick me back to Aridonia and then continue avoiding me?" Nora shouted emotionally.
Tears streamed down her face as she choked out, "Tell me, what happened to Soren? Is she alive or dead? I want to know now!"
Isaac walked up to her, tenderly wiping her tears, "Honey, don't cry. Soren is alive and well. I'm not lying to you; she's right behind me."
As he spoke, he turned to look behind him.
But he realized Wesley hadn't brought Soren up.
His face stiffened.
"Isaac!" Nora was utterly disappointed. "When will you finally tell me the truth?"
"You said Grandpa took Soren on a trip abroad, but I saw Grandpa in Aridonia."
"Grandpa couldn't even look me in the eye!"
"During this time, you've been avoiding me and constantly evading the topic of Soren."
"What are you all hiding from me?"
"Did something happen to Soren?"
Her heart ached, and she cried uncontrollably, but she still wanted to know what had happened to Soren.
Isaac hurriedly said, "Soren is alive, she really is. Don't get upset. I'll have Wesley bring her up right now."
He tenderly wiped Nora's tears while taking out his phone to contact Wesley.
Nora forcefully pushed Isaac's hand away and kicked him aside.
"Are you still acting? When you call Wesley, will he not answer? Bad signal? Or maybe he won't follow your orders and take Soren away? So you have another excuse for me not to see Soren, and you can continue to deceive me?"
Isaac frowned.
This time, he really wasn't lying to her.
But Nora wouldn't listen to his explanation.
Just then, Wesley finally came up with Soren.
"Mr. Porter, I brought Soren up!" Wesley said, panting.
Nora's sobbing stopped.
She looked in disbelief at the little girl in Wesley's arms.
Soren?
was it really Soren?
Soren wasn't hurt?
If Soren wasn't hurt, why did Isaac and Edmund lie to her for so long?
Why had Isaac been avoiding her all this time?
The joy in her heart quickly overshadowed her doubts.
Nora immediately walked over to take Soren into her arms.
Soren threw herself into her embrace, hugging her neck and sobbing sadly.
"What happened to Soren? Why is she crying so sadly? Don't cry, Mommy is here. Mommy will protect you and won't let anyone bully you."
Nora didn't think about anything else and hurriedly comforted Soren in her arms.
But no matter how she comforted her, Soren just cried and didn't say a word.
Nora thought she was just feeling wronged and didn't find it unusual.
Maybe during this time outside, Soren hadn't rested well.
Now she was back in a safe embrace, Soren relaxed instantly and soon fell asleep in Nora's arms.
Nora looked at Soren in her arms with a heart full of pity, lowered her voice, and asked Isaac in confusion, "What exactly happened?"
Isaac was silent for a moment and then said, "Let's go back to Aridonia first. I'll explain everything truthfully once we're back."
He knew that once he told Nora the truth, she would be very emotional.
He didn't want to disturb Soren's rest.
So, Isaac planned to wait until they got back, put Soren down, and then explain everything to Nora.
Nora glanced at Soren in her arms and agreed to Isaac's proposal.
Nora carried Soren out of the hotel, with Isaac following closely behind.
On the way back, neither of them spoke.
By the time they returned to Aridonia, it was already time for Magnus to get out of school.
Soren was still sleeping, so Nora put her on the bed and had a servant watch over her.
Then she and Isaac went to the kindergarten to pick up Magnus.
Magnus hadn't seen Isaac for a while. When he saw Isaac, his eyes lit up, and he ran towards him.
"Daddy!"
Isaac squatted down and caught the running Magnus.
"Did you miss me?" Isaac asked with a smile.
Magnus nodded vigorously, "I missed you. Daddy, where have you been all this time? Why have you been avoiding me?"
Isaac said, "I had work to do. I'll try to spend more time with you in the future."
Magnus happily said, "Anyone who lies is a puppy!"
Isaac chuckled, "I won't lie to you."
Because Magnus clung to Isaac, Nora had to drive.
Nora felt a bit puzzled. Didn't Magnus dislike Isaac before? Why does he like Isaac so much now?
And she clearly felt that Magnus had been much colder to her lately.
It seemed to have started after the last time they went to the parent-child amusement park, and Isaac took him to the bathroom alone. Magnus changed after that.
What exactly did Isaac say to Magnus?
Did Isaac badmouth her behind her back, making Magnus cold towards her?
She felt that Isaac wasn't that despicable.
But Magnus's change did start from that day.
Nora silently decided to question Isaac properly when they got back, to find out if he had badmouthed her in front of Magnus.
If he dared to badmouth her in front of Magnus, she'd make him pay!
When they got home, the kitchen had already prepared dinner.
Nora checked on Soren, who was still sleeping, so she didn't wake her up and had dinner with Isaac and Magnus.
After dinner, Isaac played games with Magnus.
Nora didn't find a chance to talk to Isaac.
It wasn't until Magnus went to bed and they returned to their room that they finally had some time.
Nora planned to first ask where Isaac had taken Soren during this time and why he and Edmund had conspired to deceive her, making her think Soren and Edmund had gone on a trip abroad.
What had Isaac done with Soren during this time?
After asking about Soren, she would then ask him if he had badmouthed her in front of Magnus!
However, Isaac spoke first, "Nora, how many children do you have?"
