Chapter 402

Celia turned around and made sure that Keaton wasn't paying attention to her before she lugged Raymond away.

Celia turned around and made sure that Keaton wasn't paying attention to her before she lugged Raymond away.

After she sat down on a bench, Raymond bought her a drink and sat down beside her. "Why don't we watch a movie later?"

She took the drink and shook her head. "I have to go back in ten minutes."

Raymond scowled with displeasure. "Why are you in a rush?"

"I have no choice," Celia replied. "Why don't we watch a movie in the evening? I'll be free by then."

Raymond questioned, "You were able to leave the house frequently a while back. What's been going on recently?"

Celia took a sip of the drink and explained, "Ms. Fletcher hasn't been around, so I've been the only one taking care of the child. I can't leave the child unattended for a long time. Anyway, she'll be back in the evening."

"Ms. Fletcher?" Raymond asked cautiously. "Is she a nanny as well?"

Hearing that, Celia parted her lips, but she wasn't sure how to respond to him. She then replied vaguely, "No, she…"

After a pause, she continued, "Anyway, I'll have some free time when Ms. Fletcher is back."

Raymond stopped asking so as not to arouse her suspicion. He then smiled and fished out his phone. "What movie would you like to watch? I'll book the tickets first."

Celia leaned in closer to him and selected a movie. "This looks great. Why don't you book the tickets at a later time? I'll let you know when Ms. Fletcher is back."

"Alright."

A while later, Celia took a look at her wristwatch and got to her feet. "I should get going."

She looked around but couldn't find the trash can. A considerate Raymond extended his hand. "Give it to me. I'll dump it later."

With a smile, Celia kissed his cheek and said, "I'll take my leave now. See you tonight."

"Bye."

After she was gone, the smile on Raymond's face faded. He clenched the empty cup as a sinister glint flashed through his eyes. If he wasn't mistaken, the so-called 'Ms. Fletcher' that Celia mentioned earlier was supposed to be Aidan's biological mother.

However, everyone thought that she was dead, so the fact that she was still alive surprised Raymond. It seemed that his speculation was right; Aidan had asked his mother to take care of the child.
