Let Me Go My Mafia Husband (Aria and Alessandro) novel Chapter 623

Chapter 623 Complicated Mess
Though Mother wasn’t pleased with my decision, she refrained from voicing her disapproval. She knew that no amount of arguing would change my mind, especially after the council had formally sealed the agreement.

Zander approached me, holding Austin’s small hand, and my heart ached with the overwhelming need to embrace my son. Maddox and Blair followed closely behind, their expressions unreadable.

“Austin, this is Selena,” Zander said gently, crouching to meet our son’s gaze. “She’s going to live with us now.”

Austin’s curious eyes studied me with a mix of confusion and innocence. I offered him a soft smile, silently praying that some part of his heart would recognize me—perhaps just a trace of the bond we shared, the blood and flesh that connected us, would make him realize who I was.

“Why will she live with us?” Austin asked, tilting his head toward his father.

His words pierced through me, and I sighed deeply, the weight of despair settling over my chest. My baby boy didn’t recognize me.

I waited for Zander to reply, to tell our son the truth—that I was his mother. But instead, I found myself staring at the conflicted emotions crossing his face. Hesitation clouded his features, leaving me to wonder: was he reluctant to reveal the truth to Austin, or did he still doubt that I was truly our son’s mother?

What have you done to me, Moon Goddess? Was this your plan—to let your favorite child endure this torment? If so, I’ve had enough. This pain, this slow, agonizing separation from my child, was killing me bit by bit.

“She’s our guest and wants to see the Moonglow pack. We should welcome her, right, Austin?” Blair stepped forward, her voice calm and steady, breaking the tense silence and ending the unspoken dilemma that hung over all of us.

"Can I come and live in your house, Austin?" I asked with a smile, crouching to his level. I couldn’t help myself—I reached out and gently ruffled his hair.

He blinked at me like he was really thinking it over before a small smile spread across his face.
