Chapter 441

"Can you stop asking me weird questions?"

"Huh?"

Leanna took a deep breath and looked at him. "You're making me think that kid is mine." That was the first time she said something so straightforward to him. She had tried to see if the kid was hers before, but every answer she got was opposite to her assumption.

For some reason, Aidan loved asking questions like that. He stared at her for a moment and finally chuckled. "You're reading too much into it. I just think I can be that brat's godfather if you like him so much. That way, you can see him anytime you want."

"Thanks, but no thanks."

He added, "I'm in no hurry for an answer. Take your time. Answer me when you're ready." Right then, his phone rang, and he left the kitchen to take the call.

Leanna placed her pot on the stove and turned the heat on. She spaced out at the blue flames coming from the stove. Eventually, her eyes started to hurt. I've probably been overworking my eyes. She rubbed her eyes and turned her attention to the vegetables.

There's no way he would bring that kid up for no reason. Either the child is my son, or he's just trying to fill in the void left by my unborn child. If it's the former, then everything he said so far would have been a lie, and he didn't even flinch when he lied.

She spaced out again as she was deep in thought. She had forgotten to put her knife, so ultimately, she cut her finger. The searing pain cut off her train of thought. The blade had cut her flesh open, drawing blood. Right away, she turned the faucet on and washed her wound with cold water.

Aidan came back after the call and noticed the blood on the knife and chopping board. A frown creased his forehead, and he strode up to Leanna. "You cut your finger?"

"Yeah. Would you get me some Band-Aid? It's not a deep cut. I—"

Before she could finish, he turned the faucet off and held her hand as he led her to the couch. "Sit." He turned around and whipped out a medical kit from under the coffee table. He then took out a bottle of iodophor and some Q-tips to disinfect her wound.

The pain made her gasp. "Gentler, please."

He pursed his lips slightly and did as she said. "I'll take you to the hospital tomorrow."
