Chapter 46: A Man, a Woman, Plus a Child

Arabella Shaw had just ended the call with Noah Quarter, thinking of the familiar female voice she'd heard.

She held the child and took a ride to the horse-riding range.

The moment Julia Land saw Arabella Shaw holding the child, she smiled.

Look, Arabella Shaw, this woman, is in a hurry.

"Noah, is this your daughter?"

Julia Land's voice was soft yet curious as she examined Arabella and the baby in her arms.

"Such a tiny little one, quite cute."

Julia Land reached out to touch the child, but Arabella turned her body away, not letting her touch.

"She's sleeping, Julia Land, long time no see," Arabella sighed. "It's a pity about Violet."

Julia Land asked confusedly, "What Violet?"

Noah Quarter said, "Arabella, let me hold the baby."

He meant for Arabella to stop talking.

Arabella nodded, handed over the child to him, and smiled gently.

She had just mentioned Violet, yet Julia's face showed no signs of sadness.
