Love's Change of Heart

Chapter 79

Chapter 79

Perhaps her life and her mood had shown some positive change after she moved over—the doctor told her that the child in her belly was developing in a normal and healthy manner. All she had to do was wait patiently for a few more months, and the baby would be in her arms.

When Leanna got home, she saw a copy of the finance column of a newspaper on the front porch. She placed her other things aside and was about to hand the yarn to Naomi when a few words in the newspaper caught her eye. 'Pearson Group' was written in large letters.

After the Pearson Family's recent engagement with the Barnetts, there had been distinct changes in the power distribution of their management team with the news dominating the headlines for days. Aidan's probably swamped with work. No wonder he doesn't have any spare time to care for me.

Right then, Naomi walked out of the house to find Leanna looking at the finance news. "What is it? Are you interested in this?" she asked.

Leanna hastily looked away before smiling at Naomi. "No. I was just taking a look at it."

Naomi glanced at the papers and thought about it for a moment before smiling. "You're from Highside, right?"

"Yeah." Leanna nodded.

Naomi looked as if she had more follow-up questions after that, but she held her words back in the end. "Have you bought the yarn?"

"Yeah." Leanna handed the bag to Naomi. "Ms. Fletcher, I bought some clothes on the way back. I'll wash yours and return them to you later."

"Forget it. You can have them. I can't wear those clothes anymore, anyway," Naomi said before turning and heading back to the house. That night, the male tenant next door knocked on their door. "Miss McKinney, Ms. Fletcher, I bought some desserts earlier. Ms. Shaffer and I couldn't finish them, so I thought we'd bring some over to you guys." The people around the neighborhood often brought small gifts over for one another, so Leanna took his offering without thinking much about it.

The next day, she bought some fruits on her way home and brought them to their place in return. But to her surprise, things started to get out of hand.

"Miss McKinney, my mother sent some local delicacies over from my hometown. You and Ms. Fletcher should try them out."
