Livid Guardian's Endless Coddling

Chapter 578: Kidnap

Alan sat on the three-seater while Noah and Arsh sat opposite each other on single-seaters.

Alan didn't start the conversation as it was probed by Noah. Arsh had to start as Noah was troubled by organizing his thoughts.

If they weren't Morgans, Arsh knew Noah wouldn't even think but turn them down and take his daughter away. If it was Naira, Noah wouldn't have worried too much.

It was all because of Noor, who was special to her own family and the Morgan family too.

"Uncle Noah, please feel free to voice your thoughts," Arsh said leisurely sitting on his chair.

None could say whether he didn't care about that conversation or it held no value or he was tense just like other young men facing their future fathers-in-law. 

However one could guess. Alan knew Arsh was prepared for this conversation right after Naira confessed to him. 

Arsh was indeed nervous to know how Noah was going to handle it. He wasn't nervous for himself but for Noor as Noah had the influence on Noor and Noor wouldn't cross her father.

Noah dispersed his thoughts and asked Arsh first, "Do you love my daughter?"

Arsh was also straightforward as Noah, "Noor, yes. I do love your younger daughter." He made sure to specify the person too.

Noah's face slightly turned dark. For odd reasons, he wasn't able to accept it. He turned to Alan and asked him next maintaining his moderate voice.

"Brother Alan, did you know it?"

Alan had easily accepted Ivan to be his daughter's husband, Ivan grew up in front of him. He was well aware of Ivan, his capabilities. And the Ross family wasn't new to him. Hence he was able to relax.

But the thought of a totally unknown man and family approaching his daughter makes him too defensive. Hence he could understand Noah's worries even though Noah saw Arsh growing up.

Alan didn't lie, "From thirteen years." 

Initially, he had thought Arsh was just helping Noor until his wife had mentioned Arsh throws silly tantrums at little Noor who silently follows him.

Arsh was his son, so Alan knew he liked Noor for a very long time.

Noah was truly surprised because Arsh never behaved oddly with Noor, and when he had enquired her, she had mentioned that Arsh doesn't even touch her and always maintains distance from her.

'Don't men in love try to get too close with their women?' That was a common thought.

"Then why didn't you confess to Noor?" It left his lips before Noah could realize it.

Arsh still looked unperturbed and answered to the point, "Because Noor isn't as smart as Mom to manage school, designing, work, and Love. My Dad was lucky there. I didn't want to be any kind of trouble or distraction for Noor."

Arsh didn't want to mention their parents but it was easier to make Noah understand that way.

Alan had proud calmness while Noah was speechless. Noah understood Arsh focuses on Noor's requirements without her knowing else he would have confessed when Noor was in school just like Alan confessing to Arrie.

Well, he also has to accept Noor wasn't as smart as Aria. Noor has to work hard to be good at what she tries, whereas Aria works smart hence she has higher efficiency.

Noah didn't ask Arsh but Alan, "Brother Alan, what does Arsh do every day?"

He meant the work. He was desperately trying to find a reason to stop Arsh as he couldn't outright reject him.

Arsh looked at his father, Alan played with his phone before placing it on the center table.

Noah was confused but picked it and was stunned. It wasn't much, it was a picture of Arsh with Aria and Alan. He was stunned because Arsh was in military uniform and it wasn't any low grade but upper grade.

Anyway, remembering all Noor's words about Arsh, he took time to come to the conclusion, "You work in the night hence you sleep in the day."

"You are smart, Uncle Noah."

Noah wanted to ask what kind of work and the difficulty level for life. He also wanted to point out that Arsh was too young in the pictures.

Anyway, he framed the words in his way and stood up, "I don't want a military man. I can't risk my daughter's life." He strode away.

After a long time, the father and son chuckled together at the flustered Noah. The latter was embarrassed. All turned to the captivating laughter of the two men.

Aria didn't stop Noah, nor gave him a hard time. He had the right to accept or reject unless it shouldn't cross her bottom line. 

Aria kissed her son's forehead before snuggling her husband, "So how was it?"

Alan wrapped his arm around his wife, leaving the explanation to Arsh. "Mom, Uncle Noah feels burdened to us because of Naira. He wanted to reject me but he couldn't find a proper reason for it."

Aria slowly nodded and suggested, "I think you should let Noor know about your feelings. She won't accept you easily."

Alan added proudly, "Or your mother will help you kidnap her."

Aria giggled and heard Arna's voice, "Add me in." 

"Me too." Rooney joined.

"And me." Roxy showed the fighting spirit.

"I will be in the first line." Rian crossed his arms and took the responsibility.

Arsh laughed at his family who were ready to do anything for his love. 

He actually needed nobody to kidnap Noor. He alone was enough to enter any fort to kidnap his princess away.

Meanwhile, Noah had left with his wife and daughter without a proper goodbye to the Morgan family. Anyway, he was speechless when Noor waved at all and they reciprocated back.

....

Neither Noah nor Norah took Arsh's topic with Noor. They sent Noor to her bedroom before they went to their bedroom.

Norah who exited the bathroom saw Noah rubbing his forehead, troubled too much thinking about Noor and Arsh.

"Noah" She had just uttered the name, Noah sat straight and patted the bed in front of him to call her to sit for having a good talk.

He wanted to make sure he wasn't overreacting or being overprotective of their daughter. He wasn't able to think calmly about it so needed his wife's help.

Norah knew Noah was worried, she went next to him and hugged him, "It's alright. Don't stress out, Noah."
