NovelGoldChapter 1524:
After all these years of separation, even standing before her wouldn't guarantee he'd find the right words to
speak. The potential for crushing awkwardness seemed worse than avoiding the encounter altogether.
“So what's your decision? Will you see them or not?” Felipe pressed.
“Only the children,” Kristian declared, his voice carrying the finality of settled resolve. “I'll arrange to sponsor
sschool event. That way, | can meet the kids in a setting that feels completely natural.”
Felipe released a long, weary sigh. “Do you honestly believe all this elaborate planning is necessary?”

“Cget in the car,” Felipe instructed, his heart melting completely at his daughter's radiant happiness. His
devotion to her knew absolutely no bounds. “Bella, | want you to meet someone very special.”

Kristian acknowledged her greeting with a subtle nod, then worked to soften his typically stern voice. “There's a

Felipe started the engine and began the journey home, filling the drive with easy conversation that flowed
between him and Kristian.
Kristian asked casually, “What's her complete name?”
“Isabella Welch,” Felipe answered, then shot him a look tinged with mild suspicion. “Didn't | share that
information with you previously?”
Kristian remained silent on the matter. The detail had somehow slipped from his memory entirely.
