Anyway, this kid didn't reject Noah Reyes. That was the natural bond between father and son. Noah Reyes carried Jimmy Horne in front, with Julia Bluen trailing behind, and the two Bodyguards following as they all descended the stairs.
"Uncle, your house is so pretty and big! But my house is even prettier and bigger," Jimmy Horne said childishly, his gaze sweeping across the first floor.
Noah Reyes gave him a peck on his small cheek and asked with a smile, "So, Jimmy, do you like it here?"
Jimmy Horne blinked, pondered for a moment, and then nodded. He couldn't quite articulate why he liked this uncle's house. When he'd arrived, he had clearly been very angry.
