"You're back? I heard you were imprisoned in the eastern region. What happened?"
Isabella looked at Nolan, who was walking toward her, with a curious expression.
Nolan smiled. Instead of answering right away, he stepped forward and hugged her.
"I'm back, Mother," he said affectionately.
Isabella raised an eyebrow. It had been a long time since Nolan had acted so clingy, and usually, when he did, it meant there was a big problem he couldn't solve on his own.
However, she didn't push him away. Instead, she returned his hug.
"Did you make a big mistake?" she asked suspiciously, stroking her son's head.
Nolan let out a small sigh and released her.
"Yes, I did," he admitted honestly. "But you don't need to worry. I've already taken care of it."
Isabella was a little surprised. She had thought her son would ask for her help to resolve the matter.
Who would've thought everything had already been handled?
