Chapter 43

The next day after getting her house, Leanna moved into her rented place with whatever little belongings she had. Zoe and Louis didn't allow her to do the cleaning, as they told her to sit and take a rest.

The next day after getting her house, Leanna moved into her rented place with whatever little belongings she had. Zoe and Louis didn't allow her to do the cleaning, as they told her to sit and take a rest.

Plopped on the couch, she ordered some afternoon snacks for them while thinking that she was actually kind…

With such a kind godmother and uncle, the baby will receive very good care once it's born.

With that thought in mind, she lowered her head and placed her hand softly on her abdomen. She wasn't sure if she had gained weight recently or the baby was growing, but her belly was slightly swollen.

As Zoe still had a shoot in the afternoon, she could only ask for a few hours away from work for the day. Before leaving, she bought a bunch of daily necessities for Leanna. "Nana, I can't take care of you after this, so you must take good care of yourself. Don't you ever starve yourself."

Coming out of the kitchen, Louis said, "I'll take care of my sister."

With a giggle, Leanna said, "That's enough, both of you. I'm not a child, so don't worry about me."

"You're not a child, but you have a baby inside," Zoe said, going closer to her belly. "Little baby, be good and don't give your mommy a hard time. Otherwise, I'll smack your little butt once you're born."

Soon after she had left, Leanna said to Louis, "You should get going as well. I'll take care of the rest myself."

"No," he answered. "I'll stay with you for a few days and will leave after you've familiarized yourself with the surroundings."

A chuckle escaped her lips. "Did you really take me for a child? I'm your sister."

His face was very earnest when he answered, "I'm only staying for a few days so that the others are aware that there's a man in your house and won't bully you because you're a girl living alone."

The smile on her face stiffened, and she didn't turn him down anymore. "I'll buy a single bed for you, then. It's more convenient for your visits afterward."

"It's okay. I'll just sleep on the couch," he said, taking out a bag of trash. "I'm going home to pack some clothes. What would you like to eat? I'll buy it on the way back."
