Chapter 789

Teresa, noticing Laney’s concern, interrupted with a reassuring smile, “Don’t worry. I won’t expect you to work now. You can return to the workplace after your maternity leave.”

Touched by Teresa’s thoughtfulness, Laney nodded. “Thank you, Teresa.”

Teresa smiled warmly. “You’re welcome. As long as you’re willing to help me, we can work things out. It’s not easy to find a female bodyguard as skilled as you, so I can’t just let you go.”

Flattered, Laney replied, “I’ll do my best. I won’t let you down.”

Seeing Laney’s agreement, Teresa breathed a quiet sigh of relief.

Glancing at her watch, she realized it was time for work. After bidding Laney farewell, she stood up and left.

Laney held up another bag of diapers, teasing, “What about these?”

lan examined the pack, shook his head, and replied, “Although the quality is good, they’re too thick. Anya overheats easily, so they’d likely cause a heat rash.”

In Laney’s eyes, lan had cared for her and her child more effectively than any other assistant she’d encountered. Moreover, he maintained appropriate boundaries, which put her at ease.
