Blimey, My Kid's the Heir to the Billionaire Boss!

Chapter 1423 Pretentious Man



Noah nodded. "Yeah, maybe, but we can't be sure! Finding the girls' mom is definitely easier than finding Tristan."

Sadie thought for a moment and said, "Let's start with her. Even if we don't find Tristan, at least we can help the girls find their mom."

Noah looked at the computer, determined. "Exactly. I'll figure something out, but it might take a bit."

"No rush, I'll wait." Sadie cupped his face and kissed him. "You're amazing, kiddo!"

Noah blushed. "Mom, come on, I'm not a kid anymore."

"Oh, still shy, huh?" Sadie teased, laughing. "You'll always be my son, no matter how old you get."

"Stop teasing me," Noah said, hugging the computer and running out.

Sadie laughed heartily. They hadn't found the person yet, but Noah had made progress, which was good news. She believed they would soon find Riley and cure Micah. With that good mood, Sadie slept soundly that night.noveldrama

But over at Half Mountain Villa, Micah couldn't sleep.

He was fuming all night, glaring at Andrew on the sofa and finding excuses to snap at him.

Andrew was miserable, silently praying Micah would fall asleep so he could too.

But it was past one in the morning, and Micah was still awake. He wanted to turn over but couldn't move and was about to lose his temper.

Andrew weakly suggested, "How about I go get Ms. James back?"

Micah's anger paused, and his expression softened, though he tried to stay indifferent. "I didn't say that."

After a day of rest, he was more spirited and spoke more fluently.

"Of course, you didn't think of that." Andrew, being clever, followed his lead. "I just wanted to visit Annika at the hospital, so I thought of bringing her back." "What? Now that you have a girlfriend, you don't care about your boss?" Micah glared at him coldly.

"I wouldn't dare." Andrew silently lamented. He was clearly helping Micah, yet Micah was still bullying him.

He said, "Of course, guarding the boss is more important. So, should I not go get her?"

"Go get her." Micah almost blurted out but then changed his tone. "Otherwise, you'll blame me for not being considerate of you as a boss!" "How could I dare..." Andrew started to speak but, seeing Micah's expression change, quickly corrected himself. "I'll go get her right away." "Call her right here, on speaker," Micah demanded. He really wanted to hear how Sadie would respond.

"Yes," Andrew nodded and tried dialing Sadie's number, muttering to himself, "I wonder if Ms. James is asleep; it's already past one in the morning." The phone was connecting, and the "beep beep" waiting tone tugged at Micah's heart.

He stared at Andrew's phone, hoping to hear Sadie's voice.

But one second, two seconds, five, ten, twenty seconds passed. The call was disconnected. Micah's heart sank.

"It seems Ms. James is asleep." Andrew looked at him and suggested cautiously, "Should I call again?"

"No need," Micah said, a bit gloomy and a bit angry. Sadie was sleeping soundly without him, showing she didn't care about him at all. "Maybe Ms. James will come back first thing in the morning," Andrew cautiously comforted him. "Even if she doesn't, she'll call me back." "Who cares if she calls back or not," Micah said irritably. "Go to sleep."

"Yes." Andrew breathed a sigh of relief, put down the phone, and prepared to sleep.

Micah said, "If she calls back in the morning, just say you called her yourself; it has nothing to do with me."

The more Micah thought about it, the angrier he got, and he started to lose his temper again.

He blamed, "It's all your fault. I was about to fall asleep, and you had to make a call!"

Andrew's mouth twitched, feeling speechless.
