Chapter 511

When Leanna returned home, Aidan was nowhere to be found. She pulled out her phone and saw a text which Aidan sent an hour ago. Apparently, there was an urgent matter at the company, so he might not be able to make it home tonight. After telling him that she came home in a brief reply, she put everything in her hands down and made herself comfortable on the couch.

A short while later, Aidan gave her a call and softly asked, "Have you eaten yet?"

"Yup, I ate at Zoe's place."

He then replied, "Alright. Sleep early. Don't wait for me."

Leanna paused for a moment before asking, "The matter at the company… is it bad?"

"Something about the project in Lachstein came up, but it's nothing major."

"Ah," she uttered. "You should get to it, then."

After hanging up, Leanna lay down on the couch for a while before getting up and heading to the bathroom. One hour later, she eventually came out of the bathroom.

With that, she lay on the bed, yet she could only toss and turn as she was unable to fall asleep. Whenever she closed her eyes, it was as if she could hear the wailing of a child. As such, she couldn't help but think that she was blessed with two children by the heavens, but she couldn't protect either of them. Hence, her right to be a mother was rebuked.

Honestly, before she got pregnant, she wasn't really into having kids. Nonetheless, ever since a little life form emerged within her, she began to develop another perspective on it. She could even feel the baby rolling around and moving its tiny limbs in her tummy. The wonderful feeling of a bloodline pact opened up her mind without her knowing, and for some reason, it also made her look forward to his coming.

Having daydreamed for the entire night, Leanna finally grew a little drowsy in the middle of the night. Right when she finally fell asleep, she heard a slight noise from the bathroom. Thereupon, she sluggishly opened her eyes, only to see Aidan walking toward the closet. Amid her daze, she even thought she was dreaming.

As Aidan took out a luggage bag, he heard a woman's tired voice sounding behind him. "Where are you going?"

With that, he turned around, only to see a very sleepy Leanna in her pajamas. He then walked over and pulled her into his arms, gently saying, "The situation is rather complicated. I'll have to go there for a bit."

"You mean Lachstein?"

"Mm-hmm."

Leanna then asked, "How long will you be staying there?"

"Not sure. I suppose one week at least."
