When the sound of the door closing reached her ears, Leanna stayed under the cover for a few more
minutes. It was after making sure Aidan was truly gone that she finally poked her head out of the
blanket and took a deep breath.
She flipped the blanket away and got down from the bed to check on the baby in the crib. The baby
was in deep slumber, and he didn’t show any sign of waking up soon.
Then, she carefully unzipped her luggage and took out her pajamas before tip-toeing to the bathroom.
She dared not use the hair dryer as she was afraid of waking the baby. So, she didn’t wash her hair
and just tied them up.
After showering, she walked out of the bathroom to find the baby smacking his lips and waving around
his hands while his eyes were still tightly shut.
Leanna quickly strode over. As she reached out her hands, the baby caught her fingers immediately.
The corners of her lips curved up before she sat on the bed and leaned on the crib as she stared
quietly at him with tender eyes. Soon after, she fell asleep.
It was until midnight that she had woken up by the cries coming from the crib. It was the baby.
She quickly switched on the lights and sat up. Figuring that the baby was hungry, she flipped the
blanket away, got down from the bed, and got the thermos to make some formula.
After drinking his milk, the baby was energized and looked around curiously with his big round eyes.
At that moment, the room door suddenly opened.
Then, a man’s calm voice came from outside. “What are you doing not sleeping in the middle of the
night?”
Leanna turned her head with the baby in her arms. “I wasn’t loud, though. Did I wake you up?”
Aidan looked down to see the wide-awake little punk as he licked his lips subtly. Then, he strode over
with his long legs and whispered, “Give him to me.”
She looked at him with questioning eyes.
And he repeated, “Give him to me. Go to sleep.”
She didn’t expect him to say that and was stunned for a few seconds before answering him, “It’s okay. I
can handle this myself. You should sleep, President Pearson.”
“You’re being courteous with me now?”
Leanna didn’t know how to respond to that.
Aidan didn’t wait for her rejection and reached out to carry the baby in her arms.
She dared not to struggle with him as she was afraid of hurting the baby. So, he successfully took the
baby in his arms.
He turned around and sat down on the couch. Without lifting his head, he ordered Leanna, “Go back to
sleep.”
She opened her mouth but didn’t know what to say.
Aidan was doing something that did not match his image, but the scene before her was surprisingly
harmonious.
However, it was apparent that the baby didn’t want Aidan to carry him as he pursed his lips, looking like
he was about to cry. Aidan warned him in a deep voice, “Shut up.”
Aggrieved, the little guy sniffled and clenched his fist.
Leanna could not bear to see that. “Just give him to me, President Pearson. He’s not comfortable with
you holding him.”
He commented, “You’re just spoiling him.”
She pursed her lips and thought to herself, It’s obvious that he’s scaring the baby, yet he turns around
and says I’m the one spoiling him.
However, though the baby fidgeted in Aidan’s arms, he slowly closed his eyes and fell asleep in a few
minutes. That’s unexpected, Leanna remarked in her mind.
Aidan placed the baby back in the crib before saying softly, “He’ll only wake up once in the middle of
the night. You can go back to sleep now.”
Leanna looked at him with her head tilted and questioned, “How did you know about that?”
He paused for a brief moment before he raised his head to meet her eyes. “You just need to ask, then
you’ll find the answer.”
“Oh.”
She didn’t expect him to be so attentive as to ask Wendy about the baby’s sleeping habits.
Aidan stood there for a few minutes before telling her, “I’m leaving.”
Leanna looked at him with a puzzled look.
If he wants to leave, then leave. Does he think that I would ask him to stay?
Seeing that he was not moving, she responded uncertainly, “Then… Good night, President Pearson?”
He smirked faintly. “Good night.”
With that, he left the room.
Looking at his receding back, Leanna found it comical.
He’s so childish.
Later that night, the baby didn’t wake up, just like Aidan said.
However, she tossed and turned as she lay on the bed. She couldn’t seem to fall asleep as there were
so many things on her mind.
And it took her staring at the crib beside her in the twilight for a long time before she could finally fall
asleep.
When she woke up, the sun was already high in the sky.
She sat up hastily and saw that it was 11.00AM.
She massaged her head and turned toward the crib, only to find it was empty.
She changed and went downstairs to see the baby in a rocker on the patio. He was playing with his
toys happily while Aidan was seated at the table working.
Leanna then asked, “Where’s Ms. Fletcher?”
Aidan answered without lifting his head, “She’s gone to the hospital with Ms. Shaffer.”
Then, she sat on the chair and looked at a pot not far away in a daze. It was clear that she had not fully
woken up yet.
“What do you want to eat? I’ll ask Jonathan to send it over.”
After a few seconds, Leanna came back to her senses. “It’s alright. We should still have some
groceries in the fridge. I’ll cook.”
At that moment, there was a knock on the door, and she went to answer it. It was a young man
standing outside. “Does Mr. Pearson stay here?”
She turned her head and looked before nodding slightly. “Yes.”
He then took out a gift box. “I’m an employee of the love lock bridge, and here is the present we said
that’s for you both.”
Leanna accepted the gift. “Thank you.”
“You’re welcome. I’ll be taking my leave, then.”
She closed the door after the young man left and turned around to place the box in front of Aidan
before walking straight to the kitchen.
The kitchen was filled with groceries Naomi bought from the market yesterday. Leanna first steamed
some corn on the stove and thought of making some spicy ribs, but then remembered that Aidan could
not eat spicy food. So, she dropped the thought.
As she was cooking, she felt something was off. Why do I have to accommodate him?
Then, she went to grab the ribs and only to put them down once again.
Oh, whatever. It would be a waste if I couldn’t finish it later anyway.
With her hands on the sink, she felt like she was out of her mind.
At last, she made two dishes and one soup, and they were all lightly spiced.
When she exited the kitchen, Aidan had already closed his laptop and opened the gift box on the table.
Inside were the photos they took in front of the love lock bridge last night.
They even used a special frame for the photos. On the left side of the frame was written ‘May you have
a long happy marriage’ while ‘May you be blessed with happy children’ was written on the right with a
line of hearts at the top and a mini love lock bridge cartoon at the bottom.
It was so cliché that it was a trend in itself.
Looking at the frame and photos, she had an impulse to return to Highside immediately.
