Chapter 79
Cedric also got up early today because Edmund told last night that a beautiful sister might come to see him today.
He was so happy that he got up several times last night, which made me exhausted.
Early in the morning, one of us was energetic and the other obviously didn’t sleep well. We sat in the dining room for breakfast.
“Mommy? When will pretty sister come? It’s eight o’clock now.” Cedric asked while chewing the steamed buns.
“I just got up so early and have to go to work. At least it will be noon or evening. I said weakly.
The longer I get pregnant, the more sleepy I become.
I was still in the first three months of pregnancy and had a strong reaction.
“”Ah? It will take so long? Mommy, let’s go downstairs to play with Daddy.” Cedric suggested.
“Dad needs to work.”
“Then let’s go to the place where dad works. We went there last time. There are many beautiful girls there.”
“No, Dad too busy to accompany you.” I refused without hesitation.
In fact, this is not the main reason. If I really take Cedric to the company and be seen by others, it will definitely cause a great uproar. By that time, once the relationship between Cedric and Edmund is exposed, it will make a scene. I don’t dare to take such a risk.
Hearing this, he pursed his lips and looked very sad. “Waah… Cedric misses daddy. Cedric wants to see daddy… Mommy, you are so bad. You don’t allow Cedric to see daddy…”
Then he jumped off the chair, ran to the sofa in the living room, picked up the phone and dialed Edmund’s number.
As soon as the phone was connected, he complained, “Dad, Cedric misses you. Cedric wants to see you, but Mommy can’t… waah… Waah…”
I didn’t expect him to call me and tell on me in a twinkling of an eye. I immediately walked over and grabbed the phone from his hand. “Well… Leave him alone. He is just angry. Don’t worry. I will comfort him.”
“since he wants to come, let Annie or Anna send him here.”
“Ah? I don’t think it’s a good idea. If someone sees us…” I can’t imagine the consequences.
“I’ll ask Oarlan to drive him to the underground garage and take the direct elevator. No one will see him.”.
“But this little guy is too noisy. I’m afraid that he will affect your work.” I can totally imagine that when my son arrives at the company, he will be surrounded by a large group of beautiful women. At that time, it will be difficult not to know his existence.
“Work is not as important as him.”
What else can I say?
Now that Edmund allowed Cedric to come to him, I believe he can solve my doubts.
After hanging up the phone, I turned to look at Cedric, who was blinking and looking expectant. “Go change your clothes and ask Anna to go out with you.”
“Okay, change r clothes, change yclothes…” he was so happy that he jumped
Looking at my son’s happy face, I seem to understand something.
When he was in Spain, although he lived in the hospital all year round, he still had other children and many nurses to play with him.
Occasionally, she could go shopping in parks, supermarkets and so on.
Now back home, in order not to be discovered, and for the sake of his safety, he was trapped in this luxurious room. The nature of children who wanted to get close to the nature was completely restrained. No wonder he wanted to go out.
After changing into a handsome suit and wearing a bowknot, Cedric walked out of the room in a very handsome manner.
He was carried out by Anna.
When they arrived at the door, he didn’t forget to tell me, “Mommy, if the beautiful sister comes, you must call me immediately.”
“I know. Remember, don’t be naughty and disturb dad’s work.” I warn y.
Then I looked at Anna and said, “call me if you need anything.”
Anna nodded.
After sending Cedric away, I cleaned up the dining room and went back to my room to catch up on sleep.
When I woke up at eleven o’clock, I felt dizzy.
Annie poured me a glass of water and helped me to the garden upstairs. After that, I felt much better.
When I went downstairs and came to the living room, I was about to call Edmund and ask him to send Cedric home for lunch. The entrance guard rang.
“Excuse me, who are you looking for?” Annie said to the speaker.
“Leanna? I’m Myrna. Don’t you know me?” Myrna’s voice came through the intercom.
Hearing the voice, I immediately said, “it’s Miss Fisher. Open the door and let her in.”
A few minutes later, Myrna went upstairs.
As soon as we met, we gave each other a big hug. Then Myrna looked around the room and asked, “where is your little baby? ”
“He went out. I was about to call him back.” As I said, I pulled her to the sofa and Annie went to the kitchen to get coffee.
I took out my phone and called Anna to bring Cedric back.
After I hung up the phone, Myrna looked at me up and down and said, “Leanna, you haven’t changed at all in the past four years.”
“So do you. You are still so beautiful.” I said with a smile.
With a bright smile on her face, she asked, “by the way, will you leave this time? Edmund is single now. You two can finally be together.”
My expression froze for a moment, and then shook my head. “I don’t expect anything now. It’s enough for me to take care of the child and stay with him like this.”
“Leanna, what’s wrong with you? It’s not like you.”
“If you experience so many things like me, you will also change.” I smiled and said.
“Don’t think so. Edmund will marry you. You can be together aboveboard.” She comforted me.
“”I was too obsessed with the so-called marriage in the past and forgot the essence of a relationship. Maybe this is the punishment from God. If I hadn’t been so impulsive and made a wrong decision, many things wouldn’t have ended up in an uncontrollable situation.”
“It’s not your fault. It’s just a misunderstanding. Trust Edmund. ”
“That’s almost impossible. You know about the King family. I don’t want him to be hated by others for me.” That’s why I haven’t come back to him even after I gave birth to Cedric.
I know better than anyone else that he is as proud as Edmund. There are so many people protecting him, and no one will allow any scandal to happen to him.
The old master wouldn’t allow it, and now Edmund’s mother wouldn’t allow it either.
“There will always be a solution. Edmund is so brilliant. He can surely handle it.” Myrna comforted.
“Well, let’s stop talking about me and you. How have you been these years?”
Therefore, we talked about our recent situation and the matter of Evelyn. After hearing that, she was very angry.
When Cedric came back, he was so happy to see Myrna that he immediately clung to her and pulled down the toys in her arms. Myrna seemed to like him too. She played with him patiently for a while.
It was not until dinner time that I carried Cedric to his own child seat.
Edmund also came out of the company for lunch at noon.
On the table, Myrna looked at us and sighed, “if Edmund hadn’t married me to help me, you three would have been happier than now.”
“Let bygones be bygones.” I know she has been feeling guilty about that. She thinks that she has broken up Edmund and me.
“It’s good now.” I added.
She smiled, pretending to be relaxed. “Well, I know you are good to me. Let’s eat.”
The four chatted and laughed again, having lunch happily.
After dinner, Edmund left because he had something to deal with in the company.
Cedric, on the other hand, was a little tired after playing for the whole morning. Anna took him back to his room to sleep.
I sat with Myrna for a while and she suggested to go to the hospital to see Evelyn.
So I told Annie and Anna two more things and went out with Myrna.
We arrived at The Peace Hospital.
We two got off the car and went straight to the in-patient department.
Whe I walked into the elevator and was about to close the door, two people came in from the outside.
When Myrna saw the two people, she was instantly stunned. ” aunt…”
I was looking at the advertising screen in the elevator when I heard the voice of Myrna. Subconsciously, I looked at the person who came in and my face suddenly turned pale.
Whitney was stunned to see me. Petra, who was standing next to her, was also surprised to see me, but she still reacted and called, “young lady.”
I was stunned in the elevator and didn’t know what to do.
“Mom…” although it had been four years, I was used to the way I called Whitney. For a moment, I couldn’t help blurting it out.
Whitney came back to her senses and stared at me. “Do you still remember me as your mother?”
As soon as Myrna saw the situation, she immediately stepped forward and said, “aun long time no see. There is a cafe in the hospital. How about we go there and have a talk?”
“I can’t be the second aunt. Now I’m no longer the second lady of the King family, and you’re not the eldest young lady of the King family.” Whitney cast a cold glance at Myrna and then looked up at me. “Come with me.”
Seeing this, Myrna immediately said, “aunt… Okay, if you don’t like me to call you aunt, then I’ll call you Ms. Whitney. Leanna came to the hospital today to see a sick friend. If you want to take her away, why don’t you make an appointment another day?”
“What? I’m not as important as a friend?” Whitney retorted.
I know I met Whitney here today and I can’t escape.
Maybe it’s God’s arrangement. We are destined to know each other.
“Myrna, forget it. Now that I meet her here, I’ll go with my mother. You can go to see Evelyn. She is in a VIP ward of the obstetrics and gynecology department.”
“But… Leanna…” Myrna looked at me worriedly.
“Don’t worry. It’s okay.” I comforted her and followed Whitney out of the elevator.
Edmund’s POV
All of a sudden, I received a call from Myrna. As soon as the line was connected, I heard her anxious voice. “Edmund, something’s wrong. I just came to the hospital with Leanna and was about to see her friend called Evelyn. Unexpectedly, I met my aunt in the elevator…”
“What did you say?”
“Aunt has taken Leanna away. What should we do? Can you think of a way?”
“I see.” I hung up the phone, picked up the coat hanging behind the chair and was about to go out.
Oarlan came in and asked curiously, “boss, where are you going?”
“Leanna met aunt in the hospital and took her away now.”
“Are you going to see them now?” Oarlan asked in surprise.
“She has always thought that the baby in Leanna’s belly is Eugene’s. now seeing her, she will definitely ask about the baby’s whereabouts.”
He stepped forward and stopped me, “then you can’t go either.”
I frowned and looked at him.
He hurriedly explained, “think about it. Mrs. has never known the relationship between you and Leanna. As long as Leanna doesn’t tell her, at least Mrs. will think that she is the mother of her grandson and be polite to her. But if you appear in front of her at this time and let her know that you and Leanna are actually a couple, will she still let go of Leanna?”
“What can I do if I don’t let her go? I will protect her.” I can’t care. Leanna has suffered a lot because of me. I don’t expect that she will have to bear those things that she shouldn’t have suffered.
“Yes, you can protect her from harm. But have you ever thought that once this matter is exposed to the public, it will be spread to the ears of the eldest madam, and even the second madam will spread it to the media. At that time, not only will Leanna be cursed, but also you will not be able to escape.”
I know what Oarlan said makes sense.
Reason tells me that I can’t act on impulse, but emotions don’t allow me to think too much.
“Well, I’ll ask someone to find out where Leanna has been taken. I’ll see what’s going on. If she just wants to ask about the child, I think Leanna should be able to deal with it by herself.”
“I hope so.” I said coldly with a straight face.
