After I left Alpha father and son went crazy with regret novel Chapter 166

Chapter 166 

Arnold. 

She turned her head, her gaze shifting toward the couch. Sure enough, Arnold was there, leaning against it, his posture slightly slouched as he dozed. His breathing was slow, deep, his brows relaxed in sleep. 

Nora’s throat tightened, but she said nothing. 

Just then, as if sensing her eyes on him, Arnold stirred. He blinked a few times before his gaze met hers. 

Neither of them spoke. 

There was something unnervingly strange about the quiet moment, the shared understanding in their silence. They both knew what had happened, but neither of them acknowledged it. 

Finally, Arnold broke the silence, his voice level. “Are you going home for breakfast, or do you want to eat here?” 

Nora didn’t answer immediately. Instead, she sat up and smoothed the hospital blanket over Alex, carefully tucking it in at the edges. Her movements were slow, deliberate. When she finally turned back to Arnold, her expression was neutral… cold, even. 

“I’ll figure it out,” she said simply, brushing past his question. 

Arnold studied her reaction, but he didn’t push. He could tell she was putting up a wall, distancing 

herself. He didn’t take offense. 

Instead, he simply nodded and leaned back against the couch once more, watching as Nora turned away, 

her attention fixed solely on Alex. 

The next morning, Alex woke up with a faint groan, blinking as the soft morning light filtered through the hospital window. 

His small hands gripped the blanket as he turned his head, scanning the room. 

The dizziness from the previous day had lessened, though a mild heaviness still lingered in his limbs. 

“Mommy…” His voice was hoarse with sleep. 

Nora, who had been sitting beside his bed, immediately leaned forward. “I’m here,” she said gently, brushing his messy hair out of his face.

Arnold, seated on the couch with his laptop open, glanced up from his work. “How do you feel?” 

Alex blinked a few times before murmuring, “Better… but kinda tired.” 

Before either parent could respond, a soft knock on the door interrupted them. The housekeeper stepped inside, followed by a doctor carrying his medical bag. 

“Good morning, Luna,” the housekeeper greeted with a respectful nod. 

Nora stiffened. Her jaw clenched, and a faint crease formed between her brows. She disliked the title… 

Luna. 

It wasn’t hers to claim, not anymore. And yet, no one corrected the housekeeper. Not Arnold. Not even 

herself. 

Instead, she remained silent, though the tension in her shoulders was unmistakable. 

The doctor quickly assessed Alex, checking his temperature and reflexes before nodding in approval. “His 

condition has improved significantly. He should take it easy for the next few days, but there’s nothing 

serious to worry about.” 

Relieved, Alex grinned. “So I can go home?” 

The doctor chuckled. “Yes, young man. But no running around just yet.” 

Once the check… up was done, the housekeeper and doctor left, still referring to her as Luna on their way 

out. 

Nora sighed quietly. 

Without saying anything, she stood and walked out of the room to make a phone call. 

Leo picked up after just two rings. “Nora?” 

“Hey,” she greeted, tucking a strand of hair behind her ear. “I need to take some time off. Just a few days.” 

Leo didn’t hesitate. “Of course. Take as much time as you need.” 

Nora exhaled. “Thanks.” 

After hanging up, she hesitated in the hallway for a moment before heading back. When she returned to Alex’s room, she was met with an unexpected sight… Cole and Charles were already there. 

Alex’s face brightened. “Uncle Cole! Uncle Charles!” 

Cole smiled as he ruffled Alex’s hair. “You scared us, little guy.”

Charles smiled back and stroked Alex’s head, however when he looked over at Nora, the smile disappeared from his face and turned slightly as if he hadn’t seen her. 

The air in the room shifted, a quiet coldness settling between them.
