I'm Sorry My Love Novel

Chapter 243

Chapter 243

Two days went by in the blink of an eye and it was time to leave. Leanna stared tenderly at the baby in the crib smiling happily at her, but she did not want to leave.

Aidan walked to her side and comforted her, "I told you we could secretly take him away if you really don't want to leave him."

Her eyes twitched. "Shut up."

Then, she took a deep breath before looking at Naomi. "Ms. Fletcher, I'm leaving now. I'll come to visit when I have the time."

Naomi nodded. "Have a safe journey."

After exiting the patio, Leanna just so happened to see Wendy talking to the neighbor that had not moved out at the gate. She went over and asked with concern, "Ms. Shaffer, is your cold better?"

Hearing that, Wendy coughed and answered her, "Yea, it's better. Um. Thank you for helping me these last two days, Leanna."

Leanna shook her head with a smile. "No problems, Ms. Shaffer. It's my pleasure."

She was filled with happiness these two days.

Wendy looked at the luggage in her hands and asked, "Are you guys leaving now? Why don't you stay for two more days?"

"We can't. I've got work to handle. I'll come next time."

"Sure. Of course. I won't hold you up then. Have a safe journey."

Leanna nodded at her and left as she pulled the luggage behind her. However, she took two steps and heard the neighbor beside Wendy whispering, "Is Leanna going to leave just like that? She's just going to dump the child here and not care anymore?"

Leanna paused in her tracks and heard Wendy's constant coughing before she could turn around.

Wendy raised her voice and explained, "Oh my. This cold is so annoying. If it wasn't for Naomi and Leanna helping to care for my grandson, I wouldn't know what to do."

Then, nothing was heard anymore.


So, Leanna thought that she must have heard it wrongly.

…

After returning to Highside, Leanna collected her luggage and walked out straight.

Aidan glanced to the side and Jonathan got his signal before walking briskly toward her. "Ma—Miss McKinney, let me send you home."

"Thanks, but no thanks. My friend is here to pick me up." Aidan's face instantly went cold at her words.

Jonathan tried to salvage the situation. "Miss McKinney, why don't you ask your friend to stay home? Air pollution is a huge thing now. It's everyone's job to protect the environment."

She was speechless and turned her head to look at him. "Have you ever considered changing your job, Mr. Stoll?"

"Um… not at the moment."

Then, Leanna suggested earnestly to him, "I'll advise you to change as soon as you can. If not, with the stress at such a young age, all your hair is going to fall off."

Jonathan was stunned and could not reply.

She said what she wanted as she turned around and left quickly.

Jonathan gave a fake cough and returned to Aidan's side. "President Pearson, I…"

He tried his best.

Aidan looked at Leanna's leaving back and licked his lips. "Fine."

It was his first time experiencing her smart mouth.

The sky was dark when she exited the terminal and Zoe's car appeared before her within two minutes.

After she placed the luggage at the back, she opened the passenger seat and got on. "Did you wait for long?"

Zoe replied, "Nope. I just got here a couple of minutes ago. So, how was the trip? Did that b*stard make it hard for you?"

Leanna shook her head. "No."

Except for the fact that he forced her to go to the love lock bridge and some other random things, he was normal the next two days and stayed at home with her taking care of the baby.

Zoe mumbled and she drove, "I never thought that there'll be times he's normal. At least he's not being secretive anymore."

Leanna could not catch her words. "Who's being secretive?"

Realizing that she said that out loud, Zoe gave a dry laugh and changed the topic, "No… I was just saying. Oh right, what did you do there? Was it fun?"

Now, it was Leanna's turn to be silent.

After a while, she replied, "I didn't do anything. I was just taking care of a baby."

Zoe's eyes widened in disbelief. "Taking care of a baby? What baby?"

Then, Leanna let out a long breath. "There was a lady neighbor whose son just had a second child, but did not have time to care for the child. So, he asked her to help. When I arrived, Ms. Shaffer got sick and was afraid of infecting the child, So, she asked Ms. Fletcher to help take care of the baby. I helped out since I was there as well."

Zoe took her time taking in the information. This excuse was a little absurd.
