For a moment, she really didn’t know what to say.

She felt a bit guilty in her heart.

Because she wasn’t actually bitten; she just pretended to have been bitten by an ant as an excuse.

Thinking about this, she bit her lip and then slowly lifted her hand to pull up her long skirt. While lifting the skirt, she purposefully pinched her ankle to make sure the skin turned red, only then did she reveal her ankle.

Indeed, her fair ankle was pinched red in a small spot; seeing this, she showed a relieved smile and pointed to the reddened skin, saying to him.

"It’s right here, but it’s probably nothing, just a little red."

However, Noah Drexler held her ankle, looking down with a serious expression, staring at that reddened skin.

Once he confirmed it wasn’t a bite from a poisonous insect, his tightly furrowed eyebrows slowly relaxed.

Seeing this, Summer Shawcross finally breathed a sigh of relief, yet couldn’t help but glance at Sherry and Nathaniel, signaling with her eyes to Sister Xue that she owed herself a treat for that pinch!

Seeing the matter resolved, Sherry also breathed a sigh of relief, turned around holding Nathaniel, and handed him over to Yancy Shaw.

"Mr. Shaw, please take good care of your child in the future!" Sherry glanced at Yancy, her expression a bit unhappy; his absent-minded way of caring for the child made it hard for her to feel at ease handing the child over to him.

Looking at Sherry’s unhappy expression, Yancy Shaw’s face also shifted, and he was quick to apologize to her.

"I’m sorry, I’ll be more careful in the future."

His sudden apology left Sherry a bit puzzled.

"Nathaniel is your child, there’s no need to apologize to me."

Reminded by her words, Yancy Shaw gave an involuntary wry smile.

"It seems so..."

Summer Shawcross glanced at the three people in front of her, unable to resist asking Yancy Shaw.

"By the way, Mr. Shaw, why are you here as well?"

Sean Morgan probably informed Sherry that she and Noah Drexler would be returning to Narsus City today, but why did Yancy Shaw also come?

"It was Nathaniel; when he called me, he found out you were leaving." Sherry explained.

Upon hearing this, Summer Shawcross nodded in understanding, glanced at Nathaniel who still looked unhappy in Yancy Shaw’s arms, then looked at Sherry again.

"Nathaniel seems very dependent on you; it seems like a kind of fate."

Watching Sherry and Nathaniel at that moment, she finally understood that there really might be a magical power in bloodlines... Even if Nathaniel didn’t know she was his biological mother, he naturally wanted to be close to her, to rely on her, didn’t he?

After Summer Shawcross finished speaking, Sherry smiled, then said something to hide her inner thoughts.

"Nathaniel is so cute, anyone would love him."

After hearing Sherry’s words, Summer Shawcross instantly understood.

Initially, she wanted to ask Sister Xue if she would stay with Yancy Shaw for the child... But now it seemed, she was overthinking it.

Thinking this, she sighed and said to Sherry.

"Sister Xue, I’m going back to Narsus City; remember to visit me when you have time..."

Listening to her words, Sherry nodded, flashed her a gentle smile, "Of course, I’ll visit whenever I have time."

As the two were chatting, the little guy who had been unhappy for a long time in Yancy Shaw’s arms couldn’t help but interject.
