Chapter 236

Leanna felt that there must be something wrong with this person's head.

It's not like this is my first time here. What is there to be shy about?

From the way the b*stard spoke, it sounded like it was my first time visiting my mother-in-law with

him…

At that thought, Leanna suddenly felt uneasy all over.

She faked a cough and stopped engaging in idle chatter with him. She turned around and walked up

the steps, then knocked on the door.

A few seconds later, the door was opened from within and Naomi's figure appeared before her.

A smile bloomed on Leanna's face. "Ms. Fletcher."

"Oh, you're here, Leanna. Come on in," welcomed Naomi.

Leanna passed Naomi the things she had been carrying all this while. "Ms. Fletcher, here are some

nourishing supplements and food I bought in Highside. Do have a try—"

"These things can be bought anywhere, but you still brought them all the way here."

At that moment, Wendy's voice sounded from within. "Naomi, your daughter-in-law treats you so well.

Your son visited so many times, yet he never brought anything with him."

Leanna was speechless.

The thought that flashed across her mind at the entrance was now coming out of Wendy's mouth.

It would be fine if she came alone, but now that she came back with Aidan, it just seemed too strange

to justify.

Naomi smiled and took the things from Leanna. "Come on in."

Leanna trailed after Naomi into the house. When they passed by the yard, she was about to greet

Wendy, who was seated at the stone table, when she unexpectedly saw a baby cradle beside Wendy.

Stunned, Leanna could not help but pause in her tracks.

Noticing that, Naomi placed the items on the table and explained calmly, "Come take a look, Leanna.

This is Ms. Shaffer's grandchild."

Wendy echoed, "Yes, yes. My daughter-in-law gave birth to a second child, but they were too busy, so

I'm looking after the baby in their stead. Say, I'm so old now, and I can finally live life in peace…"

As Wendy was talking, Leanna had already walked over to them.

The baby in the cradle was tiny and his two little fists were clenched tightly as he slept extremely

soundly.

Leanna could not help but fall into a daze as she looked at the child. She slowly reached out, but

stopped when she was halfway there.

Just as she wanted to retract her hand, the clenched fist suddenly opened up and grabbed her finger

tightly. After a smack of his lips, the baby fell back asleep and did not seem like waking up at all.

In an instant, Leanna felt a part of her completely giving way, softening and melting into a messy

puddle. She did not have the heart to retract her finger away, as if fearing that it would disturb the

baby's sweet dreams.

At that, Naomi and Wendy exchanged glances as the latter coughed. "Leanna, don't keep standing.

Come and have a seat."

As such, Leanna pulled away from her thoughts for a little, then immediately sat on the stool beside

her. She had yet to release her finger as she looked at Wendy and asked, "Ms. Shaffer, what's his

name?"

"Uhm…" Wendy glanced at Naomi, sending a silent plea for help. "His name…"

Naomi said, "Ms. Shaffer has been troubled recently about this very thing. We thought about it for days,

but we couldn't come up with a good name. Why don't you try coming up with one?"

Leanna was obviously stunned. "Me?"

Wendy said as well, "Yes, yes, Leanna. You're a well-educated girl, so try giving him a name."

Leanna felt that parents should be the one giving their children names, so she was not in a position to

do so.

As if seeing through her thoughts, Naomi said, "We couldn't come up with a suitable name after so

long, so you can come up with one as reference for the parents."

Wendy continued in agreement, "Yes, yes. Ms. Fletcher is right. Leanna, I'm entrusting this to you. Just

help me out."

Hearing that, Leanna did not decline anymore as she nodded lightly. 'Then, let me think about it."

As soon as she agreed, Naomi and Wendy let out sighs in relief. Then, Naomi asked, "Leanna, what

would you like for lunch? I'll make some for you."

"I'm fine with whatever," replied Leanna.

Then, she uttered quietly, "The picky one is outside and hasn't come in yet."

Naomi also saw Aidan when she answered the door earlier. "Don't mind him. As long as it's something

you like, he'll eat it too," she said.

Hearing that, Leanna turned red in the face and almost choked. "Ms. Fletcher."

Naomi smiled faintly and stopped teasing her.

At that point, the door was opened after which Aidan walked in.

"It's almost time, so I'm going to the market for some groceries," said Naomi as she rose to her feet.

Wendy immediately stood up right after. "I'm going too."

As she walked out, she turned back and said, "Oh, right. Leanna, Aidan, the baby's diapers and milk

powder are inside. If he cries, check if he soiled his diapers. If not, then he must be hungry. He only

needs an ounce and a half of milk powder. Remember to mix the milk with warm water…"

After a quick explanation, Wendy hastily pulled Naomi along and left, not even waiting for Aidan and

Leanna to reply.

Leanna was rendered speechless.

How can they rest assured by leaving the child to me and Aidan?

Before she could recover from her daze, the worst case scenario came true. The baby woke up and

looked like he was about to cry after pursing his lips.

Looking in the direction of the baby's gaze, Leanna met the b*stard's silent eyes.

She reminded him kindly, "President Pearson, you're scaring him."

Aidan averted his gaze and looked at her. "Why isn't it you?"

"When I was here earlier, he slept very soundly, but as soon as you came, he woke up immediately."

"Perhaps he's a little sloth-y."

Leanna was speechless.

You're the sloth!

She ignored the b*stard and picked up a toy in the cradle, trying to appease the baby, whose

expression was filled with indignance.

Not long after, the child was giggling away.

As Aidan watched this scene, the corners of his lips turned up ever so slightly.

Leanna played with the child for a while, then noticed that the baby's face was turning a little red. His

two fists were also clenched tightly, as if he was exerting a great force.

Just as she pondered about this, she suddenly caught a whiff of a horrible smell.

Obviously, Aidan had smelled that too when he frowned and looked at them.

"Did he…" Leanna was unsure.

Aidan's expression changed. He was about to leave when Leanna held him back while expressing

honestly, "I don't know how."

"Do you think I'd know how?"

She gave him an extremely earnest smile. "You know everything, don't you, President Pearson? Go

ahead."

Glaring at her, Aidan could feel his temples throbbing.

At this point, Leanna had taken the baby out of the cradle. When she walked into the room, she kept a

tight grip on Aidan's sleeve in case the man ran away.

After placing the baby on the couch, Leanna undid his diapers and looked around. Since she did not

see a garbage can anywhere, she passed it to the man behind her.
