Chapter 49 - THE BOY WHO WAS NO LONGER INVISIBLEYears passed.

Noah grew older.

The boy who had once slept in abandoned buildings now stood before international leaders.

He spoke for the survivors.

He helped design laws protecting children in medical trials.

He refused to use his father's name as a title.

He used his mother's instead.

Noah Bell.

The world knew his story.

But Noah never allowed the world to turn him into a symbol.

He remained a boy who liked quiet rooms.

Old books.

And rainy afternoons.

One day, a young child approached him.

The child was nervous.

“Are you the boy from the news?”

Noah smiled.

“I was.”

“Are you rich now?”

Noah laughed.

“No.”

The child looked confused.

Noah pointed toward the medical center.

“I have something better.”

“What?”

“People who stayed.”
